Abstract

Recently, wireless power transmission has attracted much interest and is the subject of much research in industry and academia. As its name implies, it is a technology which involves transferring power without wires. This paper presents the design of an ICT-based wireless power transmission system. The proposed system consists of a wireless transceiver unit and high-efficiency coil unit, which can increase both the transmission efficiency and the effective power distance. In particular, the wireless transceiver unit was designed to work with the ICT technique to enable real-time remote monitoring. Also, studies were done relating to the effect of reducing the standby power. The optimal frequency of IGBT devices used in industrial wireless power systems of 20[KHz] was utilized. The values of $23.9[{\mu}H]$ and $2.64[{\mu}F]$ were selected for L and C, respectively, through many field experiments designed to optimize the system design. In addition, an output current controlling algorithm was developed for the purpose of reducing the standby power. The results presented in this paper represent a 75[%] to 85[%] higher power transmission efficiency with a 10[%] increase in the effective power transmission distance compared with the existing systems. As a result, the proposed system exhibits a lower standby power and maintenance costs. Also, the designed wireless transceiver unit facilitates fault detection by means of user acquired data with the development of the ICT applied program.

최근 들어 전 세계적으로 무선전력전송이 많이 연구되고 있다. 무선 전력전송이란 전기기기가 전선이 없어도 무선으로 전력을 공급하는 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 ICT 기반의 무선전력전송 시스템을 설계, 제작하였다. 제안된 시스템은 기존 시스템보다 픽업코일에 접촉는 면적을 증대하여 같은 L값과 C값을 사용해도 효율이 높아질 수 있도록 설계하였다. 무선 전송의 송 수신부와 고효율의 코일부로 구성되어 있으며, 시스템의 전송 효율을 높이는 방법을 제안하였다. 특히 무선 송 수신부는 ICT 기술과 연동이 가능하도록 설계하여 실시간 원격 모니터링이 가능하도록 제작하였고, 대기전력을 절감하는 효과를 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 기업에서 무선전력전송 시스템에 사용된 IGBT소자의 최대 주파수 20[KHz]를 사용하여 이에 가장 적절한 L, C값을 찾기 위해 많은 필드실험을 통하여 가장 효율적인 L값 $23.9[{\mu}H]$, C값 $2.64[{\mu}F]$을 선정하여 시스템을 구성하였다. 또한 대기전력을 감소하기 위해 출력전류를 제어하는 알고리즘을 설계하여 적용하였다. 이 결과 기존의 장비보다 무선전력전송용량과 효율이 75[%]에서 80[%]로 전력전송 유효거리를 10[%] 증가하여 대기전력의 감소 및 유지보수 비용이 절감하였고, ICT 기술을 이용한 무선 송수신부 와 프로그램을 개발하여 사용자가 취득된 데이터로 시스템의 고장 검출을 쉽게 할 수 있게 하였다.
