Abstract
An apparatus and method for measuring power using a sensing tag are provided. The power measuring apparatus includes a power sensing tag and a power measurement control system. The power sensing tag is installed in a line along which power is supplied to a load of a target device, and measures power consumed by the load. The power measurement control system receives power information measured by the power sensing tag from the power sensing tag, and determines power consumed by the load by using the measured power information.
Claims17
A power measuring apparatus for measuring power consumption of a target device, the apparatus comprising:
- a first power sensing tag installed in a first line along which power is supplied to at least one first load among a plurality of loads of the target device, and configured to measure power supplied to the first load;
- and
- a power measurement control system configured to receive first power measurement information measured by the first power sensing tag from the first power sensing tag, and determine power consumed by the first load by using the first power measurement information.
A power sensing tag comprising:
- a measurement unit configured to measure power supplied to at least one of a plurality of loads of a target device;
- an analog-to-digital conversion unit configured to convert the measured power into a digital signal;
- a controller configured to store the measured power in a memory;
- and
- a wireless transceiver unit configured to transmit the measured power to the outside wirelessly.
A power measuring method for measuring power consumption of a target device, the method comprising:
- providing a first power sensing tag installed in at least one first load among a plurality of loads of the target device;
- receiving first power measurement information measured by the first power sensing tag from the first power sensing tag;
- and
- determining power consumed by the first load by using the first power measurement information.
