The higher precision is demanded in modem manufacturing and it requires the more accurate servo controller. Cross-coupling control (CCC) has been developed to improve contouring motion. In this paper we introduce a new nonlinear CCC that is based on contour-error-vector using a parametric curve interpolator. A vector from the actual tool position to the nearest point on the desire path is directly adopted. The contour-error-vector is determined by constructing a tangential vector of nearest point on desired curve and determining the vector perpendicular to this tangential vector from the actual tool position. Moreover, the vector CCC can apply directly and easily to free-form curves include convex and concave form. The experimental results on a three-axis CNC machine center show that the present approach significantly improves motion accuracy in multi-axis motion

In COSMOS, an area for signal coordination is divided into subareas composed of several signalized intersections that share a common cycle time. Each subarea contains only one critical intersection having heavy traffic load. Subarea is a basic unit of control. The performance of COSMOS is highly dependent on the linkage rule between adjacent subareas. The purpose of this study is to provide an appropriate subarea linkage rule in COSMOS. This study developed a control strategy for Critical Intersection and Sub Area linkage. Critical Intersections calculate the Offset Pattern both East-West Axis and North-South Axis, and the coordination direction either East-West Axis or North-South Axis. Subarea can be combined with other one in all directions. The performance of the suggested linkage rule was evaluated on the real network in Gangnam-Gu. The result was that travel time was reduced by the suggested linkage rule.
