본 논문에서는 전기자동차의 1회 충전 주행거리 연장 및 연비 향상을 위하여 주요 운전 영역에서의 평균효율 극대화를 할 수 있는 다단 변속 회로를 제안하였다. 제안한 회로는 Thyristor를 이용한 직 병렬 변속회로로 구성되어 있다. Thyristor의 특성으로 인해 과도상태 없고 끊김없는 변속이 가능하여 추가적인 스너버회로가 필요 없으며, 낮은 스위치손실로 인해 AC전동기 시스템의 고효율 및 경량화를 기대할 수 있다. 제안한 다단변속 시스템의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 1kW 급 시작품 1대를 AC전동기와 연계하여 변속 동작을 검증하였다.

In this paper, a development of model based battery SOC indicator is described. The proposed method is independent upon initial SOC, is reliable on the sudden change of load, and could estimate the available driving distance. The mathematical model of battery which has relation of the current, voltage and SOC estimates the SOC by least square estimation to minimize the error between measured voltage and estimated voltage. For experiment, the charging and discharging system using computer was designed to acquire the current and voltage data for model. The feasibility in electric vehicle was confirmed by variable load testing using the developed SOC indicator by stand-alone type microcontroller.

In this study, we conducted research on a miniaturized transmission system suitable for ultra-compact electric vehicles, such as electric arts or small electric cars. While conventional electric vehicles eliminate multi-gear transmissions and control motor output or secure initial driving force through reducers, in vehicles like electric karts or compact electric cars, which have relatively small battery capacities, the driving range can be reduced or the motor can be stressed epending on the loading state. Therefore, in this study, we developed a low stage ratio 0.625 and high stage ratio 1.6 a two-stage transmission system that can change gears as needed, considering factors such as slope conditions and loading status, by applying the continuously variable transmission (CVT) mechanism. Based on the selected gear ratios, we designed the transmission and created a test rig to verify the power transmission efficiency of the developed transmission. Using the test rig, we varied the rotational speed and load of the transmission to confirm its power transmission characteristics and also examined the heat generation characteristics during shifting and operation. As a result, developed a two-stage transmission with a CVT structure.

In this study, we analyzed the electric vehicle (EV) purchasing behavior with market segmentation in Seoul using the binary logit model. For the model estimation, the experimental design of SP survey generated 24 scenarios with purchase price, charging station availability, and driving range of EVs. The results of market segmentation analysis indicated that the owners of subcompact and compact size cars were primarily affected by the purchasing price while those of mid and full size cars were more sensitive to the charging station availability. By housing type, the charging station availability was the most important factor for the residents of apartment while the purchase price was the most important factor to choose the EVs. These results presented that the EV supply strategy of the automobile manufacturer should be diversified according to the marketing target and the expansion of the public charging infrastructure should be the top priority in the government policy.

OBC for battery charging of electric vehicles mainly consist of two stages including PFC circuit and isolated DC-DC converter circuit. In general, a non-isolated boost converter is used as the PFC circuit, and a resonant converter capable of ZVS (zero voltage switching) is used as the isolated DC-DC converter. In this paper, we propose an OBC composed of isolated current-fed type PFC circuit and buck DC-DC converter. The proposed OBC is easy to configure the circuit and controller, and can cope with a wide output range. In order to verify the validity of the proposed circuit, a prototype 3.3 ㎾ class prototype was fabricated. As a result, the maximum efficiency and the maximum power factor of 99.2% were confirmed under the operational stability and rated load conditions at the output voltage of 150V ~ 400V.

미끄럼방지 제동장치는 차량의 급제동 시 바퀴의 장김을 방지하여, 바퀴의 슬립을 최적으로 유지 시킴으로써 제동거리를 단축시키고, 운전자가 차량 조향성을 유지할 수 있게 만드는 차량 안정장치이다. 이 장치는 비행기의 착륙거리를 줄이기 위해 개발된 이래로, 철도 및 차량 등에도 널리 적용되고 있으며, 국내에서도 이미 승용차를 위주로 양산되고 있는 추세이다. 이러한 미끄럼방지 제동 장치는 공압 브레이크 장치를 사용하는 대형차량 분야에서는 아직 국내에서 적용된 사례가 없었으나, 지난 3 년간의 연구개발의 성과로 대형 버스에 적용 가능한 미끄럼방지 제동장치의 전자제어기가 개발 완료되었으며, 국제 규격을 바탕으로 국내 현실에 적합한 미끄럼방지 제동장치 장착 대형차량의 시험 규격을 정하여 이 규격에 의거 제동시험을 실시하고 개발 제어기의 성능을 평가하였다. 각 제동 시험은 $\mu$-Jump 제동시험 및 Split-$\mu$ 제동시험 등의 직진 주행 중 급제동시험, 급제동 중 차선변경 시험, 장애물 회피 제동시험 등을 포괄하며 국제적인 규격을 기준으로 정한 독자 규격을 만족하였다. 본 논문에서는 공압 브레이크를 장착한 대형차량의 미끄럼방지 제동장치의 제동성능평가 시험방법을 소개하고, 이 방법에 의해 성능평가 시스템 및 측정 시스템을 구성하여, 개발 전자제어기의 우수성을 확인하였으며, 그 측정결과의 일부를 제시하였다.

The importance of connected technology that connects products or systems is increasing. Connected technology is a concept that can communicate with surrounding objects and connect to each other through a network to operate as one system. In particular, it can be implemented using wireless communication, and various conditions are required depending on the application system, such as communication distance and speed. In this study, we analyzed trends in communication technology for the implementation of connectivity between mobility devices such as self-driving cars, drones, UAVs, and shared mobility devices. The communication distance, speed, wired and wireless status, etc. of the latest communication methods currently commercialized or under development were investigated, with a particular focus on low-power operation. We identified the element technologies needed to build a low-power long-distance communication (LPWAN) system, and initially developed a plan for constructing a connected drone. The analysis results showed that it was possible to implement a connected system using the LoRa system, and an example configuration method was presented.

The conversion of the internal combustion engine vehicle to the electric vehicle is suggested as a solution to the problem of global climate change and environmental pollution. Accordingly, this study was started to promote the use of electric vehicles. The purpose of this study is to identify the basic background knowledge and current status of electric vehicles in Korea and abroad, and expand from previous understanding on which factors affect ones choice on electric vehicles by considering individual characteristics and context in detail. In the analysis, a set of demand forecasting models were constructed by grouping the respondents based on the household characteristics as well as the vehicle ownership. At the time in need for better understanding of the feasibility of electric vehicles, it is expected that the research can assist the promotion of electric vehicles. In the follow-up study, I would like to continue the research on the activation of electric vehicles.

This paper propose an efficient algorithm for selecting electric bus charging facility location. In nature, the optimal charging facility location problem is similar to Set Covering Problem. Set Covering Problem is the problem of covering all the rows of an $m{\times}n$ matrix of ones and zeros by a subset of columns with a minimal cost. It has many practical applications of modeling of real world problems. The Set Covering Problem has been proven to be NP-Complete. In order to overcome the computational complexity involved in seeking optimal solutions, this paper present an enhanced greedy algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm. In this paper, we apply the developed algorithm to Seoul's public bus system.
