In order to move the information system supporting the advanced information society, a device that collects and inputs information from the outside is required. Such a device is called a sensor. Sensors have emerged as a core technology leading the information revolution, which has a profound effect on the industry and our daily lives, and the role of sensors in the information society is enormous. A sensor is defined as a "device that senses or measures from a measurement object and converts its measurand into an electrical signal." In this case, software (S / W) and hardware (H / W) technologies related to extracting information from a measurement object are referred to as sensor technology.
In order to obtain necessary information from various external signals, a sensor having a selectivity for a particular phenomenon is required. In this case, the selection methods are classified into physical sensors using physical effects, and chemical sensors using chemical effects ( chemical sensors, bio sensors using biometrics, and the like. Biosensor is a kind of chemical sensor in principle, but it is a sensor to compensate for the low selectivity of chemical sensor by using the excellent identification ability of living body.
In general, in order to realize the selectivity of the sensor, the sensor is manufactured by combining two or more features such as characteristics, structure, and signal processing method of the sensor material. The reason for converting the necessary information into an electrical signal is that signal processing such as amplification, feedback, filtering, differential, and storage is simple and the information can be transmitted to a physically distant place. .

This method is a robust measurement module that can be used even in environments with poor environmental resistance such as vibration, dust, and humidity. A good measurement result can be obtained only when the cooling effect is compensated by the ambient air temperature and atmospheric pressure measurement. Since (1, 2, 3, 4) must be used and additional devices such as a film type heating coil 5 and a heater controller are required, there is a problem that the system is expensive and heavy to construct.
Therefore, by configuring the wind direction wind speed measurement module using the piezo sensor, it is possible to configure it as a compact, lightweight and inexpensive system, so that it is easy to move and can be applied to the measurement of the meteorological environment for marine environment measurement, which has good responsiveness to the measurement environment. In addition, four thin-film piezoelectric sensors measure vibrations caused by wind in the 360 ° direction and compare them to measure wind direction and intensity, as well as additional sensors compared to conventional RTDs (Resistive Temperature Detector). Since it is not necessary to reduce the weight of the system, the development of an economic wind speed measurement system using an economical piezo sensor is urgently required.

The thin film piezo sensor may be equivalently represented by an electric circuit, as shown in FIG. 3, that is, a charge is generated in proportion to the force applied to the piezo thin film, and the charge is the surface area, dielectric constant, thickness of the thin film. The voltage is generated in proportion to the capacitance shown. If the capacitance of the thin film is constant, the sensor output voltage can range from microvolts to 100 volts depending on the charge generated by external forces.

Looking at the measurement principle of the wind direction wind speed using the wind direction wind speed measurement system using a piezo sensor according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The wind vibration effect is measured by four piezoelectric sensors placed on the surface of the metal cylinder. The measured value of this voltage itself shows an alternating current, the amplitude of which determines the strength of the wind. Thus, in the present invention, a circuit for detecting the peak value of the AC waveform after full-wave rectification is designed to direct the vibration effect. In other words, the output of the analog signal processing circuit of each sensor indicates the strength of the vibration effect caused by the wind in each direction. Another configuration of the wind vane is to place a multimeter resistance sensor around the sensor system, which measures the distribution of wind around the metal cylinder. That is, the wind vector field can determine the wind direction in addition to the wind speed. In the present invention, four corrugated piezoelectric sensors are arranged at intervals of 90 ° around the metal cylinder to determine the wind direction. As the number of these sensors increases evenly, the precision of the wind direction determination can be increased.
As shown in FIG. 6, the sensor values due to the wind at 9 o'clock determined by eight piezo sensors are shown.
As shown in FIG. 7, wind intensity values determined by four sensors and a synthetic wind direction vector generated using the same are shown. The wind direction information (opposite direction of the synthesis vector) can be obtained from the synthesis vector, and the wind speed can be seen to be proportional to the length of the vector. The direction of the vector is calculated by a DSP signal processing processor which converts four sensor signals into digital values and then synthesizes the vector values of a two-axis Cartesian coordinate system, wherein the wind direction anemometer described above is at least protected from wind scattered by the housing. Should be.
As described above, the wind direction wind speed measurement system using the piezo sensor can be applied to the measurement of the meteorological for marine environment measurement.
As described above, various substitutions, modifications, and changes can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention, and thus, the embodiments and the accompanying drawings are limited. It doesn't happen.
