Recent developments of small-size unmanned or manned mobile systems such as autonomous robots, exoskeleton or armored suits, micro air vehicles, and unmanned armored vehicles require long-lasting independent power sources of high energy and power density to support the systems' operation for up to 72 hours in the fields. Chemical batteries such as Ni-MH, Li-Ion, the current primary power sources for mobile devices, however, are not capable of providing enough power and energy density for the next generation high power mobile machines. For this reason, KIMM along with KERI and KIMS has been carrying out a 500W MTG development project under the DAPA's "Next generation military power source R&D program" since 2009. In this paper, a design process for a 500W MTG system currently being developed at KIMM is briefly described and the technical issues related to its development are addressed.

An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) allows small companies and domestic users to cope with power outages; but existing designs lack flexibility of control and require expensive battery maintenance, with a cost proportional to the outage compensation time. We combine a compact synchronous generator with a battery, with 10% of the capacity that would otherwise be required, to obtain a UPS with reduced maintenance costs for the same performance. Any UPS must respond immediately to a power loss, and our uninterruptible generator supply (UGS) is therefore built around real-time scheduling of its internal operations; this also makes it suitable for integration into the industrial gateway. The UGS is based on a real-time operating system, with an integrated wireless module providing connectivity to a web server, for monitoring and management, which can be performed remotely on a mobile device.

휴대전화, PDA와 같은 이동 단말기와 무선 통신의 발전으로 인하여, 이동 단말기를 이용한 전자 메일, 게임, 주식거래 등이 가능하게 되었다. 무선 단말기를 통한 주식거래나 게임 등을 위하여서는 난수발생기(Random Number Generator)의 사용이 필수적이다. 그런데 최근까지의 난수발생기는 우수한 난수성에 중점을 두어 개발되었으며, 이동 단말기에서의 에너지 소비량에 대한 연구는 없었다. 이동 단말기는 무게 및 크기의 한계 때문에 배터리의 용량에 제한이 있게되므로, 되도록 에너지 소비량을 줄여서 주어진 배터리를 오랫 동안 사용하기를 원하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이동 단말기에서 많이 사용되는 여러 난수발생기들을 살펴보고, 저전력 에너지 측정도구인 SES(SNU Energy Scanner)를 이용하여 각 난수발생기의 에너지 소비량을 측정하여 이들을 비교한다. 이를 바탕으로 이동 단말기 환경에서 저전력을 소모하는 난수발생기를 제안하였다.

본 논문에서는 휴대폰의 배터리 방전 시에도 비상전화나 문자 메시지의 사용을 가능하게 해주는 자가발전기에 관한 연구를 진행하여 휴대폰 케이스를 통한 휴대폰의 재충전 방법을 제시한다. 사용자가 스마트 폰 케이스를 흔들게 되면 전자기 코일과 발전기의 영구 자석의 상호 작용을 통해 리튬 이온 배터리를 충전 하며 전기 에너지가 생성된다. 이 때 생성된 전기에너지는 사용자가 몇 분의 통화 또는 문자 메시지를 사용할 수 있는 전력을 제공 해준다. 또한 사람이 걸을 때 위상의 변화에 의해 2 ~ 3 Hz 주파수의 진동 에너지가 발생하는데, 이를 획득하는 에너지 하베스팅 과정을 통해 배터리를 충전한다. 그리고 발전량을 분석하는 것은 상용 전자기 해석 프로그램인 MAXWELL을 사용하여 모델링 후 시뮬레이션 하였다. 마지막으로 분석한 결과를 바탕으로 자가 발전을 위한 휴대폰 케이스의 프로토타입을 구축하고 그 측정값과 시뮬레이션 값을 비교함으로써 프로토타입의 성능을 검증하였다.

The trend of compact size, light weight, low power consumption in the portable telecommunication equipments demands large scale integration and low voltage operation of chips and the minimization of the number of the components in the telecommunication terminal. According to the trend, existing chip components are modulized and are integrated as a part into a bigger chip. This paper is about the development of the peripheral units of micro-controller for mobile telecommunication terminal. Peripherals consist of DMA controller, Interrupt controller, timer, watchdog timer, clock generator, and power management unit. They are designed to be integrated with EU(Execution Unit) and BIU(Bus Interface Unit) into a 16 bit micro-controller which will be used as a core of an ASIC for next generation digital mobile telecommunication terminal. At first, whole block of the micro-controller was described by VHDL behavioral model and simulated to verify its overall operation. Then, watchdog timer, clock generator and power management unit were directly synthesized by using VHDL synthesis tool. Rest of the pheriperal units were designed and simulated by using Compass Design Tool.

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of AlN piezoelectric MPG(micro power generator). The micro energy harvester was fabricated to convert ambient vibration energy to electrical power as a AlN piezoelectric cantilever with Si proof-mass. To be compatible with CMOS process, AlN thin film was grown at low temperature by RF magnetron sputtering and micro power generators were fabricated by MEMS technologies. X-ray diffraction pattern proved that the grown AlN film had highly(002) orientation with low value of FWHM(full width at the half maximum, $\theta=0.276^{\circ}$) in the rocking curve around(002) reflections. The implemented harvester showed the $198.5\;{\mu}m$ highest membrane displacement and generated 6.4 nW of electrical power to $80\;k{\Omega}$ resistive load with $22.6\;mV_{rms}$ voltage from 1.0 G acceleration at its resonant frequency of 389 Hz. From these results, the AlN piezoelectric MPG will be possible to suitable with the batch process and confirm the possibility for power supply in portable, mobile and wearable microsystems.

Development of long-term mobile energy sources for mobile robots or small-sized unmanned vehicles are actively increasing. The micro gas turbine generator (MTG) is a good candidate for this purpose because it has both of high energy density and high power density, and 500W class MTG is under development. The designed MTG can be divided into 2 main parts. One part consists of motor/ generator and compressor, and the other one consists of combustor, recuperator and turbine. 500W class MTG is designed to operate at ultra-high speed of 400,000 rpm in high turbine temperature over $700^{\circ}C$ to improve the efficiency. Because the magnetism of NdFeB permanent magnet for the motor/generator could be degraded if the temperature is over $150-200^{\circ}C$, MTG needs the thermal insulation to block the heat transfer from combustor/turbine side to motor/generator side. Moreover, the motor/generator is allocated to get the cooling effect from the rapid air flow by the compressor. This study presents the experimental results to verify whether the thermal insulator and air flow are effective enough to keep the motor/generator part in the low temperature less than $100^{\circ}C$. From the motoring test by using the high temperature test rig, it was confirmed that the motor/generator part could maintain the temperature less than $50^{\circ}C$ under the condition of 1.0 bar compressed air.

The process of automation and monitoring in industrial control system involves the use of many types of sensors. A programmable logic controller plays an important role in the automation of the different processes in the power plant system. The major control units are boiler for temperature and pressure, turbine for speed of motor, generator for voltage, conveyer belt for fuel. The power plant units are controlled using microcontrollers and PLCs, but FPGA can be the feasible solution. The paper focused on the design and simulation of hardware chip to monitor boiler, turbine, generator and conveyer belt. The hardware chip of the plant is designed in Xilinx Vivado Simulator 17.4 software using VHDL programming. The methodology includes VHDL code design, simulation, verification and testing on Virtex-5 FPGA hardware. The system has four independent buzzers used to indicate the status of the boiler, generator, turbine motor and conveyer belt in on/off conditions respectively. The GSM is used to display corresponding message on the mobile to know the status of the device in on/off condition. The system is very much helpful for the industries working on plant automation with FPGA hardware integration.
