일반적으로 휴대폰에는 리튬이온(Ll-lon) 전지(battery)를 많이 사용하고 있으며 그 전지(battery)를 충전시키기 위해 Microcontroller를 사용해서 과충전과 방전, 그리고 전지(battery) 보호와 충전에 대한 일정한 전류를 제어한다. 여기에서 충전 동작 시 필요한 일반직인 충전 전류 제어를 PWM의 방식에 의존하지 않고 인공지능 기법을 이용해 소프트웨어적으로 처리가 필요한 파라메터 값을 추정해 적용시키고자 한다. 따라서 개발한 충전시스템에 일반적인 충전 파라메터를 전압과 전류 그리고 시간으로 분류하여 Microcontroller에 그 파라메터를 적용시켜 PWM 방식으로 제어한 후에 실험에 의한 결과값을 얻는다. 그리고 이것들을 비교하여 보다 나은 충전시스템을 구현하기 위해 인공지능 기법 중에 하나인 신경망을 이용하여 전압과 전류 그리고 시간에 대한 파라메터를 처리하였다. 본 논문에서 신경망에 대한 파라메터의 학습을 일반 FC에서 구현하고 여기에서 추출된 학습 값을 Microcontroller에 적용시켜 입력값에 따라 다양한 PWM 신호를 발생시키도록 구현했다. 이후 실제적인 실험에 의한 결과값을 본 논문에서 서술하였다.

The electrolyte of the capacitor in mobile phone chargers leaks to the power input terminal resulting in tracking on the PCB board to form a carbonized conductive path. As a result of structural analysis of the cause of the tracking, It occurred when the power input terminal and the PCB board were connected directly using the connector. The larger the amount of electrolyte leaked from the capacitor into the power input terminal, or the lower the height of the partition provided between the plug pins of the power input terminal, the higher the tracking occurrence rate. Accordingly, to lower the occurrence rate of tracking in the charger, it is necessary to provide a partition on the capacitor or increase the height of the partition provided on the power input terminal so that the leaked electrolyte does not flow to the power input terminal. In addition, the tracking occurrence rate will be reduced further if the shape of the PCB board touching ther power connection terminal is changed to ${\Pi}$.

Environmental impact of a mobile phone charger containing recycled plastic was quantified using LCA and the environmental benefits from the use of recycled and virgin plastic were compared. The assessment considers potential environmental impacts across the whole life cycle of the charger including; pre-manufacturing; manufacturing; distribution; product use; and end-of-life stages and quantified six environmental impact categories; Abiotic depletion; Acidification; Eutrophication; Global warming; Ozone layer depletion; and Photochemical oxidants creation. The study showed that the environmental impacts of the use stage accounted for 94.4% and 70% in the resource depletion and global warming impact categories, respectively, and the environmental impacts of the pre - manufacturing stage accounted for more than 98% in the other impact categories. The main cause of the environmental impacts in the use stage was electricity consumed by the charger. The main cause in the pre-manufacturing stage was PBA (Printed Board Assembly) and external case manufacturing. In order to quantify the environmental benefits of recycled PC (Polycarbonate) in the exterior case, the environmental impacts of 1 kg production of recycled PC and virgin PC were evaluated. The environmental impact on the abiotic depletion of the recycled PC is estimated to be 30% compared to the virgin PC, and the impacts on the other impact categories of the recycled PC were less than 5% of the virgin plastic. Sensitivity analysis was performed for 12 items including site data and assumptions made. The sensitivity of each item was less than 10%. The results of this study confirm that designing compact and light PBA, improving charging efficiency, and use of recycled plastic are important design factors to reduce the environmental impact of a charger.

Currently, wireless power transmission technology based on magnetic induction was employed in battery charger for smart phone application. The system consists of wireless power transmitter in base station and receiver in smart phone. Size and thickness of receiver was strictly limited in the newest smart phone. In order to achieve high efficiency of a tiny small wireless power receiver module, sub-millimeter thick electromagnetic wave shielding sheet having high permeability and Q was essential component. It was found that magnetic field from transmitter to receiver can be intensified by sufficient shielding cause to minimize leakage magnetic flux by those magnetic properties. This leads to high efficiency of wireless power transmission and protects crucial integrated circuit of main board from electromagnetic noise. The important soft magnetic materials were introduced and summarized for the current small-power wireless power charger and NFC application and mid-power home appliance and high-power automotive application in the near future.

Recently, the interest of Wireless Power Transmission(WPT) has been increased for Mobile device application. It is necessary to analyze interference between wireless devices for the efficient use of frequency resource. The Minimum Coupling Loss(MCL) method and the Monte Carlo(MC) method were used for the interference analysis. In this paper, the impact of the 3rd order harmonics of the wireless charger for Cellular Phone on the existing Radio Modem was analyzed. As a result, the separation distance and the allowable number of interferer on the basis of service radius were obtained to protect the Radio Modem from the wireless charger for Cellular Phone.

Interest in Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) technology has been increasing worldwide recently. This trend is proved by commercialized products such as electric toothbrush, wireless razor, and wireless charger for mobile phone battery. Studies for enhancing the applicability of the technology have been continuously conducted. Currently the WPT technology is based on the technologies using microwave, inductively coupling, and magnetic resonance. In the meantime, development of the microwave-based WPT faces difficulty due to health hazards involved in the technology, and application of the WPT technology using inductively coupling is restricted by area due to the problem of transmission length. In comparison, the WPT technology using magnetic resonance draws attention in terms of efficiency and transmission length. In this study, the sending coil based on the WPT technology using magnetic resonance system was replaced with an HTS coil to enhance transmission efficiency. Since the HTS coil has a zero resistance, power transmission loss can be minimized. At the same time, size of the current density could be increased to 100 times or more than typical coils. In addition, through impedance matching of LC device, maximal resonance properties were induced and consequently, frequency selection quality characteristics or Q was enhanced. As a result, the WPT type using the HTS coil showed a longer transmission length and better transmission efficiency compared with the WPT type using typical coils.
