기존 교통정보 수집시스템의 낮은 확장성과 높은 비용 등의 문제를 해결하기 위해 WSN 기반의 교통정보 수집 시스템이 최근 많이 연구되고 있다. WSN 기반 시스템은 기존 시스템에 비해 높은 확장성과 낮은 유지보수 비용을 가지는 장점이 있다. 최근에는 자기장센서, 가속도센서, 음향센서 등 다양한 센서를 이용하여 WSN 기반 교통정보수집 시스템 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만, 초음파센서를 이용한 WSN 기반 시스템은 아직 연구가 부족한 실정이다. WSN 기반 시스템은 배터리 동작, 낮은 컴퓨팅 파워와 같은 고유 특징으로 인해 에너지절약과 알고리즘의 경량화가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 상세 모델링과 분석을 통해 도로환경에 따른 초음파 센서의 이상적인 에너지절약 방법을 제시한다. 또한 초음파 데이터를 이용한 차량인식 알고리즘의 경량화를 위한 방법을 제시한다. 제안된 방법은 초소형 마이크로프로세서에 실제 구현되었으며 성능평가를 통해 높은 차량인식 정확성을 보임을 확인하였다.

In most of ultrasonic NDT(Non-Destructive Testing) equipments using A-scan display technic, it is one of the inconveniences that the user must be proficient in reading the displayed signals for the accurate decisions. In this study, a simple microprocessorized NDT machine for the flaw detection was developed. The operation of system is based on the conventional NDT system. The microprocessor detects the time delay between transmitted pulse and echos by counter-measure method. Then according to the scanning position, the location of flaw orthe other side of testing object is plotted on the CRT. The main advantages of the developed system are simplicity in handling, recording capability of measured data, and low cost.

Full direct digital control of induction motor driver is implemented with a minimal hardware structure. This paper deals with the presentation of a low-cost single-chip microprocessor-based control system for three-phase PWM generation and vector control that control speed of the induction motor using the field-oriented control method. Rotor flux is estimated using the indirect sensing method based on the rotor circuit equation in the synchronously rotation reference frame, and slip angle and rotor position are calculated from rotor angular velocity and stator current. Through simulation and experiment, it is shown that the proposed scheme gives good static and dynamic performance to the induction motor drive.

For self-guiding track-type orchard sprayer, a low-cost steering controller was developed using two ultrasonic sensors, two DC motors and 80196kc microprocessor. The operating principle of controller was to travel the sprayer between artificial targets such as wood stick placed every 1 m along both sides of the demanded path of speed sprayer. Measuring distances to both targets ahead with the ultrasonic sensors mounted on the front end of sprayer, the controller could determine how much offset the position of sprayer was laterally. Then the steering angle was calculated to actuate DC motors connected to the steering clutches, where the fuzzy control algorithm was used. Equipped with the controller developed in this research, the sprayer could be traveled along demanded path, the centerline between targets, at speeds of up to 0.4m/sec with an accuracy of ${\pm}$20cm.

This paper proposes a simple MPPT control scheme of a Current-Control-Loop Error system Based that can be obtains a lot of advantage to compare with another digital control method, P&O and IncCond algorithm, that is applied mostly a PV system. An existent method is needed an expensive processor such as DSP that calculated to change the measure power of a using current and voltage sensor at the once. Therefore, it is applied a small home power generation system that required many expenses. But, a proposed method is easy to solve the cost reduction and power unbalance problems that it is used by control scheme to limit error of a current control of common sensor. This proposed algorithm had verified through a simulation and an experiment on battery charger using PIC that is the microprocessor of a low price.

In this paper we designed a prototype hybrid type linear pulse motor (HLPM) with single side stator structure for low cost. The measurement system which can get the motor characteristics of the HLPM was suggested. The static and dynamic characteristics of the thrust force are measured analyzed. And the microstep drive method is adopted and tested to the drive of prototype HLPM. The thrust waveform is measured respectively to know the differences of the thrust waveform between the microstep drive method and rectangular wave. From the experimental results, it can be confirmed that the repetitive ripple of the thrust force of the prototype HLPM is reduced by taking the microstep drive method.

In a switched reluctance motor drive, it is important to synchronize the stator phase excitation with the rotor position, because the position of rotor is an essential information. In the high-speed region, switching angles are fluctuated back and forth out of the preset value, which is caused by the sampling period of the microprocessor. In this paper, a low cost analog encoder suitable for practical applications is proposed. The validity of the proposed analog encoder with a proper logic controller is verified from the experiments.
