Intelligent and dynamic power distribution system (2019)
AERTEC took on the challenge of designing and manufacturing this product, a battery management control system and smart load balancing system, with a view to using it in unmanned aerial systems.
The electrical power management system (EPMS) supplies the aerial system with power at different voltage levels (28 V, 12 V and 5 V). Thanks to its modular design, different voltages and power ranges can be made available to tailor power distribution to different load demands.
The EPMS features a powerful monitoring system that continuously reports on the system's status via a low-power microcontroller. Furthermore, for increased reliability, the system has various protective systems in place in case the voltage or temperature falls outside the operating range.
