According to the proposed architecture, this algorithm is utilized in a real application and the obtained results are shown. Thus, it is aimed that the researchers who have ROS enabled experimental setup and/or robot model prepared in ROS-Gazebo environment can easily apply the method.","PeriodicalId":6611,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Electrical and Electronics Engineering (ELECO)","volume":"5 1","pages":"885-889"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83180424","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}

Basic battery management systems do not charge the battery cells and require external chargers. For a flexible charging system, the built-in chargers are located into each battery management module. Thus, charging systems can be independent of the number of battery cells. For the health of the battery cell, battery charging methods are as important as usage limits. The aim of the proposed study is to eliminate the energy consuming excess energy and to apply the newly developed and more efficient charging algorithms to the designed structure. For this purpose, a new circuit structure has been developed instead of relay elements which activate the charging line in order to charge the battery cells in parallel. As a result of this study, proposed structure provided faster charging and higher energy efficiency.","PeriodicalId":6611,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Electrical and Electronics Engineering (ELECO)","volume":"152 1","pages":"295-299"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84802242","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}

Wireless Power Transfer completely eliminates the existing high voltage power transmission lines, cables, and towers.Electric Vehicles (EV) have been proposed to achieve green transportation. Even though EV usage is currently increasing, a technology breakthrough would be required to overcome battery related drawbacks.Wireless power transfer provides inherent electrical isolation and reduces on board charging cost, weight and volume. Nevertheless, WPT for EVs pose additional challenges and sustainability trade-offs and concerns that have stimulated discussion in academia and industry.In this presentation, we first review existing technologies for both stationary and dynamic charging of vehicles. We then propose a wireless power transfer technology using microwaves for the wireless charging of stationary EVs. It involves the design of a beam forming phased array antenna as a transmitter (TX) distributed on the parking walls or on garage walls that transmit power to the receiver antenna existing in the car.We use a phased array antenna technology to control and adjust the microwave power beam in order to increase efficiency and to reduce unexpected radiation outside of the receiving antenna. The harvested RF power is converted into DC supply to charge the battery while the EV parks over night by using an appropriate rectifier- antenna (rectenna) circuit. The technology lends itself also for charging implantable or wearable medical devices as well. This will be highlighted in the presentation with an example of a self-powered wearable medical device.","PeriodicalId":6611,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Electrical and Electronics Engineering (ELECO)","volume":"16 1","pages":"I14-I15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86668761","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}

Traditional iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm is fast, but it is only suitable for registration of rigid motions. Traditional affine ICP algorithm is fast enough and can match the shapes non-rigidly transformed, but it is not robust for noises and outliers. In this study, we propose a new affine ICP variant using correntropy criterion and point-to-line metric. Correntropy is a similarity measure between two random variables and it has outlier rejection property. By maximizing the objective function defined, the registration performance of affine ICP is increased. The method proposed is also find transformation as fast as traditional affine ICP algorithm. Experimental studies on 2D shapes show that our method is quite good in affine registration with noise and outliers in terms of accuracy and speed. The results are compared with state-of-the-art methods.","PeriodicalId":6611,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Electrical and Electronics Engineering (ELECO)","volume":"os-25 1","pages":"537-541"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87207910","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}

A group of design parameters that affects the volumetric efficiency are opening-closing characteristics of the valves (opening and closing times, valve lift and shape of cam lobe). But the same values of these parameters in various speeds yield different volumetric values which make the problem much more difficult. The solution is to develop techniques that change these parameters with changing engine speed. The most ideal one is to achieve this variation continuously together with speed variation which is called continuously variable valve timing (CVVT). To achieve this goal piezo actuator driven hydraulic displacement magnifier has been used. To drive the piezo actuator an electronic control unit and high voltage power amplifier designed and then fully digital solution is developed and explained in this study.","PeriodicalId":6611,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Electrical and Electronics Engineering (ELECO)","volume":"36 1","pages":"276-280"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73724482","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}
