Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are regarded as a promising and environmental friendly method for wastewater treatment and bio-production. The output power of a single cell is inadequate to drive loads directly. Microbial fuel cells stacked in serials will promote bio-production or bioremediation and the voltage of the MFCs can be scaled up by connecting the cells in serials, whereas voltage reversal may emerge in this case. The causes for reversing polarity of MFCs have received great attention in recent years. This paper designs a power management circuit for microbial fuel cell, studies the mechanisms of voltage reversal and the approaches to solve the problem.
Micro vibration energy harvesters have received much attention due to their potential application of low power wireless sensor networks and embedded systems. This paper studies three mechanisms to scavenge the ambient vibration energy, discusses the power management circuit and the application of the converter, investigates the prospective development and ongoing challenges in MEMS-based vibration energy harvester.
In this paper, we study the MEMS wireless air-mouse system(MWAMS), which based on three-axis gyroscope、three-axis accelerometer、magnetometer and wireless RF technology. It makes use of MEMS motion sensing technology、information fusion algorithm and DCM complementary filter algorithm to sensing air-mouse's motion. This paper presents a new multi-sensor optimal information fusion and mapping algorithm. Compared to the traditional algorithm, this new algorithm based on MEMS technology not only has higher performance-higher location accuracy and better smoothness, but also has lower power consumption.
Abstract:The micro-machined gyroscope that uses Coriolis force to measure angular velocity has non-linear error,which makes the amplitude of angular velocity have a relationship with its frequency,and fabrication technology error,which leads gyroscope’s drive shaft and detection shaft not to be vertical.All kinds of errors severely restrict this kind of gyroscope’s measuring accuracy and application range.This article obtained the reason for the formation of all kind of gyroscope’s errors and their mathematical expressions through analyzing the principle of micromachined gyroscope,which uses Coriolis force to measure angular velocity.At the same time,the gyroscope mathematical model was established and used to emulate to analyze each error’s influence on the angular velocity measured by gyroscope.The conclusion obtained by theoretical analysis and simulation provides the basis for gyroscope’s error analysis and elimination,and it has an important significance in improving the measuring accuracy of gyroscope.
