Abstract

In the future battlefield, the role of the unmanned vehicle is very important. Currently, charging and management systems for unmanned vehicles are all wired. However, for convenience and stability, it is desirable that the charging of the unmanned vehicle uses wireless power transfer system. In this paper, we have studied the application of wireless power transfer system to the charging of unmanned vehicles. Considering the size of the unmanned vehicle and the required power, the transmission coil and the receiving coil are designed through the finite element analysis based magnetic field simulation. The coil was made according to the simulation results and the circuit simulation was performed through the measured parameter values. Finally, we show that wireless power transmission can be applied to unmanned mobile charging through actual experiments.

미래의 전장에서는 무인 이동체의 역할이 매우 중요할 것으로 예측된다. 최근 사용되는 무인 이동체는 충전과 관리를 위하여 유선의 충전선과 데이터 연결선을 가지고 있다. 하지만 편리성과 안정성을 위하여 무인 이동체의 무선 충전과 무선 데이터 전송을 이용한 무선 전력전달 시스템을 사용하는 것이 요구되어지고 있다. 이 논문에서, 우리는 이러한 요구를 만족시키기 위하여 무인 이동체에 적용 가능한 무선 충전 기술을 연구하였다. 자기장 유한 요소 시뮬레이션을 통해 무인 이동체의 크기와 무인 이동체에서 사용하는 전력을 고려한 송, 수신 코일의 설계를 하였다. 또한, 시뮬레이션 결과를 바탕으로 최적의 코일을 제작하였고, 실험을 통하여 시뮬레이션 결과와 비교하여 검증하였다.
