    摘要: The present disclosure relates to an in-place alignment method for wireless charging of an urban air mobility and a device and a system therefor. A wireless charging method in an urban air mobility includes diagnosing a state of at least one sensor included in the urban air mobility, requesting the supply device to drive a sensor included in the supply device through wireless communication based on a result of the diagnosing, measuring a location of the supply device by sensing a sensor signal of the supply device, moving the urban air mobility to the supply device based on the measured location of the supply device, and stopping the urban air mobility, performing alignment of wireless power transmission/reception pads for wireless charging, and performing wireless charging based on completion of the alignment. Therefore, the present disclosure has an advantage of maximizing a wireless charging efficiency and minimizing a power waste by quickly and accurately aligning wireless power transmitting/receiving pads of the urban air mobility and the supply device with each other in place.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to an in-place alignment method for wireless charging of an urban air mobility and a device and a system therefor. A wireless charging method in an urban air mobility includes acquiring location information of a supply device for supplying wireless power, moving the urban air mobility to the supply device based on the location information, sensing a sensor signal of the supply device based on a distance to the supply device becoming equal to or smaller than a first distance, performing first charging in which the urban air mobility moves to the supply device based on the sensed sensor signal, stops and performs wireless charging with first power, performing fine alignment based on a wireless charging efficiency calculated during the first charging, and performing second charging in which wireless charging with second power is performed based on completion of the fine alignment. Therefore, the present disclosure has an advantage of maximizing a wireless charging efficiency and minimizing a power waste by quickly and accurately aligning wireless power transmitting/receiving pads of the urban air mobility and the supply device with each other in place.

    摘要: A bidirectional on-board charger (BOBC) may be disposed between an electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) and a battery equipped in an electric vehicle to convert power while performing charging/discharging in two-way direction, supply a converted DC power to the battery to driving the electric vehicle, convert a power of the battery into an AC power in converting power with respect to the EVSE, and supply the AC power to a grid or a load. In a method and apparatus of controlling a BOBC, an operation mode of the BOBC proceeds to an optimum point by comparing battery voltage values in a charging mode and proceeds to an optimum point on the basis of an accurate battery state value through a grid connection in a discharging mode.
