In this paper, a solar power tracking method using the solar cells is proposed, which has 3 solar cell located at an interval of $60^{\circ}$ in azimuth so that the sunlight may almost be perpendicular to the solar cells without excessive mechanical operation. Compared with the solar cell voltages in each azimuth, there is the highest voltage in time interval. As a results, this solar cell system achieve higher relative efficiency of $1.6{\sim}11.5%$ than fixed solar cell system. Therefore, it is verifying that this solar cell tracking system obtain more relative efficiency than fixed solar cell system for aid to navigation.

The output characteristics of solar cell vary with load and solar insolation. Therefore solar cell must always track maximum power point. If photovoltaic system is stand-alone. It is necessary to maintain for output of voltage source inverter. In this paper, stand-alone photovoltaic system consists of boost chopper and voltage source inverter. We make it to track maximum power point by revolution of solar cell array instead of detecting situation of sun in any conditions. And we prove that maximum power point tracking by revolution of solar cell array is better than fixed solar cell.

Particularly the photovoltaic systems are preferred because the output is extracted to the useful electric energy. However, the output characteristics of photovoltaic(PV) systems using solar cell or array depend on the weather conditions. The assistant equipment which emulates the solar cell characteristics that can be controlled arbitrarily by researcher is required to the researchers for reliable experimental data. To solve these problems, it is necessary to research a solar cell model of which output characteristics varied by setting the weather conditions such as insolation levels and temperatures. Therefore, this paper was presented that improved model which is based on interpolation model. To verified the improved model, it is confirmed using the simulation of MATLAB. Also, the experiment was performed by the characteristics of virtual implemented solar cell(VISC) system with the proposed solar cell model. It could be confirmed that there exists actual ewer within 5% between actual solar cell and VISC system.

A study on photovoltaic system has a lot of problems. Such as repetition experiment in the same condition, development of MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking) algorithm, development of islanding detection algorithm and so forth. The reason Is that solar cell output characteristics are varied by insolarion and surface temperature of solar cell. Therefore, the assistance equipment is required which emulates the solar cell characteristics. In this paper, propose the new modeling of solar cell and verify this modeling using MATLAB simulation. And experiment virtual implement of solar cell system using this modeling.

In this paper, we newly introduce a wireless identification system using a solar cell and RF transceivers. The reader sends interrogating signal to a transponder using LED visible light, and the transponder responds to the reader using RF signal. The transponder consists of a solar cell, an amplifier, a microprocessor, and an RF transmitter. The solar cell receives the visible light from the reader and generates current to supply electric power to the other devices in the transponder. At the same time, the solar cell detects interrogating signal in the reader light. The microprocessor senses the interrogating signal and generates a responding signal. The RF transmitter radiates the responding signal to the reader. The transponder is a passive circuit because it operates without external power. In experiments, the maximum read distance between a reader and a transponder was about 1.6 meter.

In the present study, the preliminary study on a small solar-powered RC airplane are performed for the development of a long-endurance solar-powered UAV. Solar energy enables the solar-powered UAV to fly longer or eternally. The solar-powered UAV transfers the solar energy to electric energy and this energy is used for the flight and the battery charge. To increase the flying time, the efficiency of the solar-cell power system must be increased and the required power for flight must be minimized. Hence, the system integration including solar cell and controller, the power system design, and the aerodynamic and structural designs of the UAV is very important. The present study have performed the design, manufacture, and flight test of the small solar-powered UAV for the preliminary study of the long-endurance solar-powered UAV. From this study, the system integration technology of the solar-powered UAV design is established, and the possibility and the issue points for the development of the long-endurance solar-powered UAV are discussed.

본 논문은 Solar Cell을 응용하여 통신기능과 함께 전원공급이 가능한 배터리 없는 가시광 통신용 수신기를 제안한다. 기존 포토다이오드(PD : Photo Diode)를 적용한 가시광 통신용 수신기는 수신신호 처리를 위한 PD 드라이버와 신호 처리부를 동작시키기 위하여 별도의 전원 회로와 배터리가 필요하다. 따라서, 체적 및 비용의 증가가 불가피하여 가시광 통신의 큰 문제점으로 대두되고 있다. 하지만 제안회로는 PD를 Solar Cell로 대체하여 기존의 신호를 수신함과 동시에 Solar Cell의 광전효과를 통해 생성된 전력을 사용하여 별도의 부가회로 없이 전원 공급이 가능하며 무선통신 기술의 새로운 패러다임을 제시한다. 제안된 회로의 타당성 검증을 위해 Solar Cell을 응용한 시작품을 제작하여 실험 결과를 제시한다.
