POWER MANAGEMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A power management apparatus comprising:
- an information collecting unit configured to collect at least one reference electric signal and at least one product information that correspond to at least one load;
a control unit configured to control a storage of the at least one reference electric signal and the at least one product information that correspond to the at least one load; and
a storage unit configured to store the collected at least one reference electric signal and the collected at least one product information that correspond to the at least one load.

Abstract
A power management apparatus including an information collecting unit configured to collect at least one reference electric signal and at least one product information that correspond to at least one load, a storage unit configured to store the collected at least one reference electric signal and the collected at least one product information that correspond to the at least one load, a measurement unit configured to measure electric signals of loads provided in a power management domain, and a control unit configured to find a reference electric signal, corresponding to the measured electric signal, among the stored reference electric signals, check product information corresponding to the found electric signal and display the checked product information. The reference electric signal of each load is acquired in advance, and electric signals of loads are distinguished among all electric signals, thereby enhancing the efficiency in recognizing each load.

31. A method for controlling a power management apparatus, the method comprising:
-
receiving a reference electric signal of a load from a terminal; storing the received reference electric signal of the load; measuring all electric signals of a plurality of loads provided within a power management domain; determining which measured electric signal corresponds to the stored reference electric signal; checking power consumption of the corresponding electric signal among all the electric signals; and outputting the power consumption of the corresponding electric signal. - View Dependent Claims (32)
