마이크로 인공위성의 자세제어를 위한 마이크로 추진장치에 대한 연구는 대부분 기존의 추진장치를 소형화하는 방향으로 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 미소추력 발생을 위한 노즐의 소형화로 인한 점성손실, 배압에 의한 손실 등을 대기압실험, 진공환경실험, CFD 해석을 통하여 검증하였다. 또한 마이크로 노즐에서의 유동 손실을 극복하기 위한 방법으로 열적발산원리에 대해 이론적 접근을 시도하였다. 마이크로 추진장치에 적용을 위한 열적발산원리는 움직이는 부품 없이 오직 온도 구배만으로 유동을 제어할 수 있기 때문에 추진장치의 소형화로 야기되는 손실을 극복할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposes a low-cost power converter for micro wind turbine systems using permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSG). The proposed converter consists of a two-leg three-phase PWM inverter for the generator control and a single-phase half-bridge PWM converter which is connected to the utility grid. For the two separate DC-link voltages, a balancing control is added and the adverse effect of the DC-link voltage ripples on the inverter output voltage is compensated. The control performance of the proposed converter topology for the micro wind turbine system is shown by the simulation results using PSIM software.

The electrode wear in micro-EDM significantly deteriorates the machining accuracy. In this regard, electrode wear needs to be compensated in-process to improve the product quality. Therefore, there are substantial amount of research about electrode wear. In this study a control method for micro-EDM using discharge pulse counting is proposed. The method is based on the assumption that the removed workpiece volume is proportional to the number of discharge pulses, which is verified from experimental results analyzing geometrically machined volume according to various number of discharges. Especially, the method has an advantage that electrode wear does not need to be concerned. The proposed method is implemented to an actual micro-EDM system using high speed data acquisition board, simple counting algorithm with 3 axis motion system. As a result, it is demonstrated that the volume of hole machined by EDM drilling can be accurately estimated using the number of discharge pulses. In EDM milling process a micro groove without depth variation caused by electrode wear could be machined using the developed control method. Consequently, it is shown that machining accuracy in drilling and milling processes can be improved by using process control based on the number of discharge pulses.

In order to improve the accuracy in the field of simiconductor and LCD research equipment, the demand of XYZ stage which is possible to control X axis, Y axis and Z axis has been increased steadly in place of the existing XY stage which is only practicable to X & Y axis positioning control. This paper presents a new pneumatic actuator for Micro-positioning control in the XYZ stage. Air pressure in a pneumatic actuator is controlled by the E/P Regulator. The control range of pneumatic actuator is about 100 micro-meters and it's construction concept is easy to apply a practical state

In the planetary surface exploration , micro-rovers or nano-rovers are very attractive choices for a surface exploration system providing mobility functions and other features required in the surface probe missions at small mass and relatively small cost. This paper surveys and summarizes the requirements for Mars exploration rovers in micro or nano scale and outlines the control concepts for navigation including the obstacle/hazard avoidance and the path planning. In this context, autonomous reaction capabilities are the key elements to control design in conjunction with the remote control schemes to deal with the significant signal propagation delays. Other navigation and control aspects such as the instrument fine positioning and the flip-over of the rovers are also briefly introduced. The current technical limitations of the micro- and nano-rovers are summarized.

This paper describes the mechanism of parallel micro machine platform and its feedback control system for acquiring high accuracy. The parallel micro machine platform that has developed has 5x5x5 work-space and sub-micron accuracy. For the high accuracy, the feedback control system is important but errors in machining and assembling are inevitable. Kinematic calibration is important for this reason. In this paper, various error components are introduced and the effects of error component are analyzed.

Operators suffer much difficulty in manipulating micro/nano-sized objects without the assistance of human interfaces, due to the scaling effects in micro/nano world. This paper presents a micro manipulation system based on the teleoperation techniques which enables the operators to manipulate the objects with ease by transferring both human motion and manipulation skill to a micromanipulator. An experimental setup consisting of a micromanipulator operated under stereo-microscope with the help of intelligent user interface provides a tool that can be used to visualize and manipulate micro-sized 3D objects in a controlled manner. The key features of a micro manipulation system and control strategies using teleoperation techniques for handling micro objects are presented. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of this system in precisely controlling trapping and manipulation of micro objects based on teleoperation techniques.

Microsystem technology has been applied to space technology and became one of the enabling technology by which low cost and high efficiency are achievable. Micro propulsion system is a key technology in the miniature satellite because micro satellite requires very small and precise thrust force for maneuvering and attitude control. In this paper research on micro solid propellant thruster is reported. Micro solid propellant thruster has four basic components; micro combustion chamber, micro nozzle, solid propellant and micro igniter. In this research igniter, solid propellant and combustion chamber are focused. Micro igniter was fabricated through typical micromachining and evaluated. The characteristic of solid propellant was investigated to observe burning characteristic and to obtain burning velocity. Change of thrust force and the amount of energy loss following scale down at micro combustion chamber were estimated by numerical simulation based on empirical data and through the calculation normalized specific impulses were compared to figure out the efficiency of combustion chamber.

This paper deals with the design of a spiral micro inductor using LTCC(Low Temperature Cofired Ceramics) technology. The inductors using the LTCC technology have some prominent properties of high integration of circuits, high confidence and low cost comparing with previously fabricated thick-film inductors.
