HESO: A Heterogeneous Energy Spreading Object - An Application of Power Packet Technology to Mobile Vehicle-

Abstract

We have designed a four-wheel vehicle, adopting a high-speed switching power supply circuit and power packet technology to demonstrate flexible and fault tolerant power transmission system. An energy of Li-ion battery is distributed to four motors using power packet. Transmitter and receiver of power packets are designed using micro controller and MOSFET. It is demonstrated that power packet technology can be adapted to robotics and can control the movement of the vehicle of power transmission control.
