They are increasingly used in a number of public and private projects. UAVs with their mobility and ability to fly at different altitudes can compensate for some shortcomings in the wireless sensor network and offer an alternative approach to data harvesting. With their help, it is easy to allow spatial research of different areas/spaces. This is particularly important in the study of air pollution, which changes sharply even over relatively short distances in the horizontal and vertical directions. In the present study is presented a research of possibilities for application of a new instrument for studying the air quality at different altitudes, which is accessible to a wide range of users. The approach is based on using cheap UAVs and low-cost air quality sensors. This paper shows the relevance of a customized, off the shelf UAV equipped with mobile monitoring devices as an effective, versatile, and unconventional means to collect three-dimensional air pollutant concentration data.","PeriodicalId":306452,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE XXVIII International Scientific Conference Electronics (ET)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128626326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This converter consists of two main parts – a synchronous voltage doubler rectifier (SVDR) and a single ended resonant inverter (SERI). In this circuit variant, the SERI is actually a supplying source for the synchronous rectifier. Because a SERI could work as a current source the examination is made in two variants. In the first variant, the supplying source for synchronous rectifier is an ideal current source. For this purpose the power MOSFET and the other resonant components from SERI are removed. They are replaced by an ideal sinusoidal current source. The high frequency transformer is kept. In that way the output of the converter (the output of the SVDR) is kept galvanically isolated from its input (the current source). In the second variant, the supplying source for the synchronous rectifier is SERI itself. Parametrical analysis with LTSpice simulation software is made for two cases. The first case is when the load resistance is changing but the filtering capacitors have constant capacitance. The second case is when the load resistance doesn’t change but the capacitance of the two filtering capacitors is changing. To confirm the results an experimental model has developed.","PeriodicalId":306452,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE XXVIII International Scientific Conference Electronics (ET)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129866219","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
