Optimization and Modeling of Ink-Jet Printed Flexible Position Sensor

Abstract:

This paper presents how geometrical and technological parameters of inductive angular position sensor, fabricated on flexible substrate, influence its characteristics. In our earlier work, the angular position sensor has been already presented but for 60° stroke. In presented work, the design and optimization have been performed for 90° stroke, which is extensively used, for example, in automotive applications. For three different designs of meander rolled coils, width of segments, substrate thickness and relative distance between outer and inner coils have been changed in order to find optimal sensor structure. The proposed sensor is low-cost, easily fabricated and its parameters can be adapted for different angular strokes and applications.
