In this thesis, a miniaturized energy harvester system is developed. The energy harvester converts fluid kinetic energy into electrical energy without using any rotating components. The working principle of the energy harvester is based on the so called vortex-induced vibration. Such systems have the potential to provide energy for wireless sensor networks in the field of inline measurements for gas, oil or water transportation systems. The theoretical background of the vortex-induced vibration (VIV) is studied. Based on the studies, a fluid-structure interaction simulation is carried out to optimize the structure of the energy harvester. As result, the conversion efficiency is significantly improved, which is experimentally confirmed. A series of demonstrators are manufactured according to the simulation and optimization results. It is tested on a self-constructed test bench. To further improve the performance, an electromagnetic generator is proposed, and therefore, a multimethod demonstrator realized. The demonstrators are working in air flow already at a velocity of 2 m/s, and reach the maximum efficiency at 3.6 m/s. This performance ranks among the best published results and is discussed in detail. / In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird ein miniaturisiertes Energiegewinnungssystem entwickelt, das unter Verzicht auf rotierende Komponenten kinetische Strömungsenergie in elektrische Energie umwandelt. Die Funktion dieses Wandlers basiert auf der sogenannten wirbelinduzierten Vibration. Derartige Systeme besitzen unter anderem das Potenzial, drahtlose Sensornetzwerke zur Erfassung von Messdaten in Gas-, Öl- oder Wassertransportsystemen mit Energie zu versorgen zu können. In der Arbeit wird der theoretische Hintergrund der wirbelinduzierten Vibration untersucht und darauf basierend werden Fluid-Struktur-Wechselwirkungssimulationen zur Strukturoptimierung durchgeführt in deren Ergebnis eine theoretische Verbesserung der Effizienz des Wandlers um ein Mehrfaches erreicht wird, die auch praktisch bestätigt wird. Unter Berücksichtigung der Simulations- und Optimierungsergebnisse wurden eine Reihe von Demonstratoren gefertigt, die auf einem selbst konstruierten Prüfstand getestet wurden. Zur weiteren Erhöhung der Leistungsfähigkeit des Wandlers wird ein zusätzlicher elektromagnetischer Generator vorgeschlagen und damit ein Multi-Methoden-Demonstrator technisch realisiert. Die Demonstratoren arbeiten in strömender Luft bereits bei Geschwindigkeiten von 2 m/s und erreichen bei 3,6 m/s ihre maximale Effizienz. Die erreichten Ergebnisse ordnen sich im Vergleich mit denen aus entsprechenden Publikationen vorn ein und werden ausführlich diskutiert.

Une solution de gestion de puissance d’un système sur puce peut être définie par une architecture de faible puissance composée de multiples domaines d'alimentation et de leur stratégie de gestion. Si ces deux éléments sont économes en énergie, une solution efficace en énergie peut être obtenue. Cette approche nécessite l’ajout d’éléments structurels de puissance et de leurs comportements. Une stratégie de gestion doit respecter les dépendances structurelles et fonctionnelles dues au placement physique des domaines d'alimentation. Cette relation forte entre l'architecture et sa stratégie de gestion doit être analysée tôt dans le flot de conception pour trouver la solution de gestion de puissance la plus efficace. De récentes normes de conception basse consommation définissent des sémantiques pour la spécification, simulation et vérification d’architecture de faible puissance au niveau transfert de registres (RTL). Mais elles manquent une sémantique d’interface de gestion des domaines d'alimentation réutilisable ce qui alourdit l’exploration. Leurs sémantiques RTL ne sont pas aussi utilisables au niveau transactionnel pour une exploration plus rapide et facile. Pour combler ces lacunes, cette thèse étend ces normes et fournit une étude complète des possibilités d'optimisation de puissance basées sur la composition et la gestion des domaines d'alimentation pour des modèles fonctionnels transactionnels utilisant un environnement commun USLPAF. USLPAF comprend une méthodologie alliant conception et vérification des modèles transactionnels de faible consommation, ainsi qu’une bibliothèque de techniques de modélisation et fonctions prédéfinies pour appliquer cette méthodologie. / A SoC power management solution can be defined by a low-power architecture composed of multiple power domains and a power management strategy for power domains states control. If these two elements are energy-efficient, an energy-efficient solution can be obtained. This approach requires inferring power structural elements and their related behavior in the chip internal logic. A strategy adjusting the power domains states must respect structural and functional dependencies due to the physical power domains composition. This strong relationship between power architecture and its management strategy must be explored at early design stages to find the most energy-efficient solution. Low-power design standards have recently enabled low-power architecture exploration starting from the Register Transfer Level (RTL) by defining semantics to specify power architecture, simulate and check its behavior along with the initial functional one. But, these standards miss semantics for reusable power domain control interface making power management strategies exploration tedious. The RTL-based semantics defined by these standards constrain also their use at Transaction-Level of Modeling (TLM) for fast and easy exploration. This dissertation proposes extensions to low-power standards to fill these gaps. It provides a complete study of power optimization opportunities based on composition and management of power domains in Transaction-Level (TL) functional models within a common USLPAF framework. USLPAF includes a methodology that combines design and verification of TL low-power models. To apply this methodology, USLPAF incorporates a library of modeling techniques and built-in features.

Au-delà du nœud technologique CMOS BULK 28nm, certaines limites ont été atteintes dans l'amélioration des performances en raison notamment d'une consommation énergétique devenant trop importante. C'est une des raisons pour lesquelles de nouvelles technologies ont été développées, notamment celles basées sur Silicium sur Isolant (SOI). Par ailleurs, la généralisation des architectures complexes de type multi-cœurs, accentue le problème de gestion de la consommation à grain-fin. Les technologies CMOS FD-SOI offrent de nouvelles opportunités pour la gestion de la consommation en permettant d'ajuster, outre les paramètres usuels que sont la tension d'alimentation et la fréquence d'horloge, la tension de body bias. C'est dans ce contexte que ce travail étudie les nouvelles possibilités offertes et explore des solutions innovantes de gestion dynamique de la tension d'alimentation, fréquence d'horloge et tension de body bias afin d'optimiser la consommation énergétique des systèmes sur puce. L'ensemble des paramètres tensions/fréquence permettent une multitude de points de fonctionnement, qui doivent satisfaire des contraintes de fonctionnalité et de performance. Ce travail s'intéresse donc dans un premier temps à une problématique de conception, en proposant une méthode d'optimisation du placement de ces points de fonctionnement. Une solution analytique permettant de maximiser le gain en consommation apporté par l'utilisation de plusieurs points de fonctionnement est proposée. La deuxième contribution importante de cette thèse concerne la gestion dynamique de la tension d'alimentation, de la fréquence et de la tension de body bias, permettant d'optimiser l'efficacité énergétique en se basant sur le concept de convexité. La validation expérimentale des méthodes proposées s'appuie sur des échantillons de circuits réels, et montre des gains en consommation moyens allant jusqu'à 35%. / Beyond 28nm CMOS BULK technology node, some limits have been reached in terms of performance improvements. This is mainly due to the increasing power consumption. This is one of the reasons why new technologies have been developed, including those based on Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI). Moreover, the standardization of complex architectures such as multi-core architectures emphasizes the problem of power management at fine-grain. FD-SOI technologies offer new power management opportunities by adjusting, in addition to the usual parameters such as supply voltage and clock frequency, the body bias voltage. In this context, this work explores new opportunities and searches novel solutions for dynamically manage supply voltage, clock frequency and body bias voltage in order to optimize the power consumption of System on Chip.Adjusting supply voltage, frequency and body bias parameters allows multiple operating points, which must satisfy the constraints of functionality and performance. This work focuses initially at design time, proposing a method to optimize the placement of these operating points. An analytical solution to maximize power savings achieved through the use of several operating points is provided. The second important contribution of this work is a method based on convexity concept to dynamically manage the supply voltage, the frequency and the body bias voltage so as to optimize the energy efficiency. The experimental results based on real circuits show average power savings reaching 35%.

La sophistication grandissante des dispositifs intelligents ultra-portatifs, tels que les smartphones ou les tablettes,crée un besoin d'amélioration des performances des organes de conversion de puissance.La tendance des technologies d'acheminement de puissance évolue progressivement vers une fréquence plus élevée, une meilleure densité d'intégration et une plus grande flexibilité dans les schémas d'asservissement. La modulation dynamique de tension est utilisée dans les circuits intégrés de gestion de puissances(DVS PMICs)des transmetteurs RF alors que la modulation DVFS est utilisée dans les PMICs dédiées au CPUs et GPUs. Des DCDC flexibles et fonctionnant à haute fréquence constituent aujourd'hui la solution principale en conjonction avec des régulateurs à faible marge de tension (LDO).L'évolution vers des solutions à base de HFDCDC de faibles dimensions pose un défi sérieux en matière de 1)stabilité des boucles d'asservissement,2)de complexité des architectures de contrôle imbriquant des machines d'état asynchrones pour gérer une large dynamique de puissance de sortie et 3)de portabilité de la solutions d'une technologie à une autre.Les solutions les plus courantes atteignent aujourd'hui une gamme de 2 à 6 Mhz de fréquence de découpage grâce à l'usage de contrôleurs à hystérésis qui souffrent de la difficulté à contenir la fréquence de découpage lors des variations de la tension ou du courant en charge.Nous avons voulu dans ce travail étendre l'usage des méthodes de conception et de modélisation conventionnelles comme le modèle petit signal moyen, dans une perspective de simplification et de création de modèles paramétriques. L'objectif étant de rendre la technique de compensation flexible et robuste aux variations de procédés de fabrication ou bien aux signaux parasités inhérents à la commutation de puissance.Certes, le modèle moyen petit signal, au demeurant bien traité dans la littérature, réponds amplement à la problématique de compensation des DCDCs notamment quand la stabilité s'appuie sur le zéro naturel à haute fréquence inhérent à la résistance série ESR de la capacité de sortie, mais les HFDCDC actuels utilisent des capacités MLCC ayant une très faible ESR et font appel à des techniques de compensation paramétriques imbriquant le schéma de compensation dans la génération même du rapport cyclique. La littérature existante sur le fonctionnement de la machine d'état, se contente d'une description simpliste de convertisseurs PWM/PFM mais ne donne que très peu d'éléments sur la gestion des opérations synchrones/asynchrones alternant PWM,PFM,écrêtage de courant, démarrage ou détection de défaillance. Dans ce travail, notre études est axée sur les deux aspects suivants:1)La modélisation paramétrique et la compensation de la boucle d'asservissement de HFDCDC et 2)la portabilité de la conception de la machine d'états du contrôleur notamment lorsqu'elle intègre des transitions complexes entre les modes.Dans la première section, nous avons développé un modèle petit signal moyen d'un convertisseur Buck asservi en mode courant-tension et nous l'avons analysé pour faire apparaitre les contributions proportionnelle, intégrale et dérivé dans la boucle. Nous avons démontré la possibilité d'utiliser le retour en courant pour assurer l'amortissement nécessaire et la stabilité de la boucle pour une large dynamique de variations des conditions de charge.Dans la seconde section, nous avons développé une architecture de machine d'états sophistiquée basé sur la méthode d'Huffman avec un effort substantiel d'abstraction que nous a permis de la concevoir en description RTL pour une gestion fiable du fonctionnement asynchrone et temps réel.Notre contribution théorique a fait l'objet d'une réalisation d'un PMIC de test comportant deux convertisseurs Buck cadencés à 12MHz en technologie BiCMOS 0.5um/0.18um. Les performances clefs obtenues sont:une surtension de 50mV pendant 2us suite à l'application d'un échelon de courant de 300mA. / The continuous sophistication of smart handheld devices such as smartphones and tablets creates an incremental need for improving the performances of the power conversion devices. The trend in power delivery migrates progressively to higher frequency, higher density of integration and flexibility of the control scheme. Dynamic Voltage Scaling Power Management ICs (DVS PMIC) are now systematically used for powering RF Transmitters and DVFS PMICS using Voltage and Frequency scaling are used for CPUs and GPUs. Flexible High frequency (HF) DC/DC converters in conjunction with low dropout LDOs constitute the main solution largely employed for such purposes. The migration toward high frequency/small size DCDC solutions creates serious challenges which are: 1) the stability of the feedback loop across a wide range of loading voltage and current conditions 2) The complexity of the control and often-non-synchronous state machine managing ultra large dynamics and bridging low power and high power operating modes, 3) The portability of the proposed solution across technology processes.The main stream solutions have so far reached the range of 2 to 6 MHz operation by employing systematically sliding mode or hysteretic converters that suffer from their variable operating frequency which creates EMI interferences and lead to integration problems relative to on-chip cross-talk between converters.In this work we aim at extend the use of traditional design and modeling techniques of power converters especially the average modeling technique by putting a particular care on the simplification of the theory and adjunction of flexible compensation techniques that don't require external components and that are less sensitive to process spread, or to high frequency substrate and supply noise conditions.The Small Signal Average Models, widely treated in the existing literature, might address most needs for system modeling and external compensation snubber design, especially when aiming on the high frequency natural zero of the output capacitor. However, HFDCDC converters today use small size MLCC capacitors with a very low ESR which require using alternative techniques mixing the compensation scheme with the duty cycle generation itself. The literature often provides a simplistic state machine description such as PWM/PFM operations but doesn't cover combined architectures of synchronous / non synchronous mode operations such as PWM, PFM, Current Limit, Boundary Clamp, Start, Transitional and finally Fault or Protection modes.In our work, we have focused our study on two main axes: 1) The parametric modeling and the loop compensation of HFDCDC and 2) the scalability of the control state machine and mode inter-operation. In the first part, we provided a detailed small signal averaged model of the “voltage and current mode buck converter” and we depicted it to emphasize and optimize the contributions of the Proportional, Integral and Derivative feedback loops. We demonstrated the ability to use the current feedback to damp and stabilize the converter with a wide variety of loading conditions (resistive or capacitive). In the second part, we provided architecture of the mode control state machine with different modes like the PWM, PFM, soft-start, current limit,… .The technique we have used is inspired by Huffman machine with a significant effort to make it abstract and scalable. The state machine is implemented using RTL coding based on a generic and scalable approach.The theoretical effort has been implemented inside a real PMIC test-chip carrying two 12MHz buck converters, each employing a voltage and current mode feedback loop. The chip has been realized in a 0.5um / 0.18um BiCMOS technology and tested through a dedicate Silicon validation platform able to test the analog, digital and power sections. The key performance obtained is a 50mV load transient undershoot / overshoot during 2us following a load step of 300mA (slope 0.3A/ns).

O objetivo do desenvolvimento do projeto foi minimizar uma das principais desvantagens no uso do gás natural veicular, que é a perda de potência, e aumentar sua eficiência volumétrica através da construção de um circuito eletrônico capaz de gerenciar de forma eficiente a injeção do gás. O aumento do rendimento é obtido através do gerenciamento eficiente da mistura ar-combustível utilizando um sistema de malha fechada. O gerenciamento da relação de potência e economia é conseguido com o uso simultâneo de gás natural e o combustível líquido. Nos sistemas de conversão atuais e nos veículos originais a gás natural, a perda de potência é compensada desligando o sistema de gás e utilizando somente o combustível líquido, sendo esta seleção feita de forma manual na maioria dos sistemas de conversão e de forma automática no Fiat Siena tetrafuel, não possibilitando o uso simultâneo do gás com o combustível líquido. A exigência de potência é medida através do ângulo do pedal do acelerador. Quando a exigência de potência é baixa, o sistema opera apenas com gás. No momento em que há solicitação de potência intermediária, o sistema opera com diferentes proporções de etanol e gás. Na situação de solicitação de potência máxima, é utilizado apenas o combustível líquido. Foram feitas comparações entre o sistema convencional e o sistema proposto, através de ensaios dinamométricos, rodoviários e emissão de poluentes. O veículo Volkswagen Gol com seu sistema original utilizando somente etanol possui potência máxima de 64,06 cavalos, (47,77 Kilowatts) e consumo de 12,6 quilômetros por litro de etanol. Com o sistema convencional de gás natural aspirado, o consumo foi de 21 quilômetros por metro cúbico e a potência não ultrapassou 51,82 cavalos (38,64 Kilowatts), com o protótipo desenvolvido a eficiência volumétrica aumentou 25% com consumo de 26,4 quilômetros por metro cúbico. O gerenciamento de potência proporciona potências intermediárias acima de 51,82 cavalos (38,64 Kilowatts), até a potência máxima de 64,06 cavalos (47,77 Kilowatts) em situações que uma maior potência é requerida. O sistema desenvolvido proporciona o benefício da flexibilidade no abastecimento disponível nos sistemas atuais, com a flexibilidade na potência não disponível nos sistemas atuais. / This project intended to minimize one of the main disadvantages of using natural gas vehicles, which was the loss of power, and increase their volumetric efficiency by building an electronic circuit able to efficiently manage the gas injection. The increase in volumetric efficiency is obtained through the efficient management of air-fuel mixture using a closed loop system. The management of the power and economy ratio is achieved with the simultaneous use of natural gas and liquid fuel. In the current conversion systems and original vehicles that use natural gas, the power loss is compensated by turning off the gas system and using only the liquid fuel. This selection is done manually in most conversion systems, and automatically at Fiat Siena Tetrafuel, not allowing the simultaneous use of gas to liquid fuel. The demand for power is measured by the angle of the accelerator pedal. When the power demand is low, the system operates only with natural gas. When intermediate power is required, the system operates with different proportions of ethanol and natural gas. For maximum power, only ethanol is used. Comparisons were made between the conventional and the proposed system through dynamometer tests, road tests and emission analyses. The Volkswagen Gol with original system using only ethanol has a maximum power of 64.06 horses (47.77 Kilowatts) and consumption of 12.6 kilometers per liter of ethanol. With conventional aspirated natural gas system, the consumption was 21 km per cubic meter and the power did not exceed 51.82 horses (38.64 Kilowatts). With the prototype, volumetric efficiency increases by 25%, with consumption of 26.4 kilometers per cubic meter. The power management provides intermediate powers up to 51.82 horses (38.64 Kilowatts) until the maximum power of 64.06 horses (47.77 Kilowatts) in situations where more power is required. The developed system provides the benefit of refueling flexibility found in the original system, with power flexibility not available in original systems.

Les vingt dernières années ont vu l’émergence de systèmes sans fil dans la vie de tous les jours. Ils ont rendu possible la création de technologies telles que les téléphones portables, le WiFi ou l’internet mobile qui sont maintenant tenus pour acquis dans la société actuelle. L’impact environnemental des technologies de l’information et des communications connaît une croissance exponentielle et a atteint l’impact de l’industrie du transport aérien. L’initiative d’informatique verte a été lancée en réponse à cette observation pour réduire de 15 à 30% les émissions de gaz à effet de serre en 2020 comparé aux prédictions faites en 2002 afin de garder le réchauffement climatique inférieur à 2°C. Dans cette thèse, nous avons étudié des techniques d’économie d’énergie dans les réseaux sans fil et comment elles interagissent entre elles afin de donner une vue holistique des réseaux verts. Nous prenons également en compte l’usage du spectre radio fréquence qui est le moyen le plus utilisé pour les communications entre systèmes sans fil et qui devient une ressource rare à cause du besoin grandissant de notre société pour de la bande passante en mobilité. Cette thèse suit les couches réseaux avant de remonter les piles matérielleset logicielles. Des contributions ont été apportées à la plupart des couches afin de proposer un réseau sans fil autonome où les noeuds peuvent collaborer pour améliorer les performances du réseau, réduire de façon globale l’utilisation du spectre radio tout en limitant la consommation énergétique du réseau. / The last twenty years saw the emergence of wireless systems in everyday’s life. They made possible technologies such as mobile phones, WiFi or mobile Internet which are now taken for granted in today’s society. The environmental impact of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has been raising exponentially to equate the impact of the airline industry. The green computing initiative has been created in response to this observation in order to meet the 15%-30% reduction in green-house gases by 2020 compared to estimations made in 2002 to keep the global temperature increasebelow 2°C. In this thesis, we studied power-saving techniques in wireless networks and how they interact with each others to provide a holistic view of green networking. We also take into account the radio frequency resource which is the most commonly usedcommunication medium for wireless systems and is becoming a scarce resource due to our society’s ever-increasing need for mobile bandwidth. This thesis goes down the network stacks before going up the hardware and software stack. Contributions have been madeat most layers in order to propose an autonomic wireless network where nodes can work collaboratively to improve the network’s performance, globally reduce the radio frequency spectrum usage while also increasing their battery life.
