In this paper, the cell loss rate is analyzed in terms of the input traffic stream of different speed in ATM network. The cell loss rate is calculated by birth-death process of Leaky-Bucket mechanism as the representative algorithm of usage parameter control. The cell loss rate assumed 2-state MMPP input process to be birth-death process by considering the character of token pool about finite capacity queue. The results from numerical analysis show that the cell loss rate decreases abruptly according to the buffer size increase. The computer simulation by SIMSCRIPT II.5 has been done and compared with on/off input source case to verify the analysis results.

Most stage directors and designers make use of controling and moving lots of stage set or device as a large automation device or machine to achieve dramatic effect in their performances. Specially, it is very important to use a programmable multi-chain hoist system which is able to move high speed as well as to lift heavy loads. This paper proposes a multi chain hoist servo system to lift or lower a heavy load of about l ton for public performances' stage. It is automatically operated, electrically driven by a control console with a PTP trajectory generation algorithm, a realtime network control algorithm, and 4 step sequential safety algorithm. The efficiency and performance of the developed system are verified through a series of experiments.

Improvement in the control strategy for continuous casting is a crucial requirement to enhance the slab's quality and to increase productivity. The mold oscillator adopts the dual cylinders due to its heavy weight, so the synchronized motion of two cylinders is an important aspect when precise control is needed. The conventional method uses the master-slave control applied to the valve input reference, but the synchronization performance should still be improved. This paper proposes a novel synchronization algorithm for dual cylinders used in a mold oscillator. The master-slave concept is applied to the target reference position, that is, the slave target reference position is controlled to match the slave cylinder's position with the master cylinder's position. In the simulation based on a Simulink model, the proposed algorithm shows a better synchronization performance in aspect of the mean of the absolute error and the peak synchronization error.

In a fire disaster in a tunnel, people should be rescued immediately using the information obtained from cameras or sensors. However, in heavy smoke from a fire, people cannot be clearly identified by a mounted CCTV, which is only effective in a clear environment. A thermal camera can be an alternative to this in smoky situations and is capable of detecting people from their emitted thermal energy. On the other hand, the thermal image camera has a smaller field of view than an ordinary camera due to its lens characteristics and temperature error, etc. In order to cover a relatively wide area, panoramic image construction needs to be implemented. In this work, a template-based similarity matching algorithm for constructing the panorama image is proposed and its performance is verified through experiments. This scheme provides guidelines for coping with difficulty in image construction, which requires an exact correspondence search for two images in cases of heavy smoke.

This paper describes the novel control techniques design of VSC(Voltage Sag Corrector) for the purpose of power line quality enhancement. A fast detecting technique of voltage sag is implemented through the detection of instantaneous value on synchronous rotating dq-reference frame. The first order digital filter is added in the detection algorithm to protect the insensitive characteristics against the noise. The relationship between the total detection time and cut-off frequency of the filter is described. The size of the capacitor bank used as the energy storage element is designed from the point of view of input/output energy with circuit analysis. Finally, the validity of the proposed scheme is proven through the simulated results.

최근 산업현장에서는 작업의 빈번한 변화에 따른 로봇의 재배치, 테스트로 인해 많은 비용이 소모되고 있다. 이러한 문제점의 해결방안으로 OLP(Off-line Programming) 시뮬레이션 시스템이 주목받고 있다. 현재 대부분의 OLP 시뮬레이션 시스템은 하나의 컴퓨터에서 실행되는 하나의 응용프로그램으로 되어있다. 따라서 로봇을 제어하는 시뮬레이션 프로그램이 복잡해지고 시뮬레이션 대상이 되는 작업장의 규모가 커지게 되면 이와 비례하여 시뮬레이션에 소모되는 시간이 늘어나게 되고 이로 인하여 시뮬레이션 진행상황을 실시간에 맞추어 출력하지 못하게 되는 경우가 발생하게 된다. 또한 하나 컴퓨터에서 실행되는 응용 프로그램의 한계로 인해 시뮬레이션 상황을 출력하는 화면크기는 제한될 수밖에 없어지고 여러 작업장의 시뮬레이션 진행상황을 동시에 확인하기가 힘들어 진다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 하나의 PC에서 실행되는 OLP 시뮬레이션 시스템을 사용자가 지정하는 로봇의 집합 단위로 네트워크로 연결된 여러 개의 PC에서 실행할 수 있도록 하여 다수의 로봇 제어 프로그램을 실행하는데 걸리는 부하와 시뮬레이션 진행 상황을 출력하는 CAD시스템에 걸리는 부하를 분산 시키고 연결된 여러 PC를 통해 시뮬레이션 진행상황을 자유롭게 확인할 수 있는 구조를 제안하였다. 그리고 시뮬레이션 시스템의 분산화로 인해 발생하는 동기화 문제에 대한 해결 방안으로 기존 시스템에 사용되는 이벤트/사이클 혼합 방식의 로봇 시뮬레이션 시스템의 알고리즘을 분산시킨 방안을 제시하였다.

This paper proposes and analyzes an error control scheme which tries to recover the transmission error within the deadline of a message on FDDI networks. The error control procedure does not interfere other normal message transmissions by delivering retransmission request via asynchronous traffic as well as by delivering retarnsmitted message via overallocated bandwidth which is inevitably produced by the bandwidth allocation scheme for hard real-time guarantee. The receiver counts the number of tokens which it meets, determines the completion of message transmission, and finally sends error report. The analysis results along with simulation performed via SMPL show that the proposed scheme is able to enhance the deadline meet ratio of messages by overcoming the network errors. Using the proposed error control scheme, the hard real-time network can be built at cost lower than, but performacne comparable to the dual link network.

In this paper, we propose an improved method on an adaptive application of the CPP(Chinese Postman Problem) algorithm to the protocol test suite generation for conformance testing. Also, we present an example application of this CPP algorithm to B-ISDN Q.2931 call/connection control procedure for the purpose of showing how it can be adapted to generate a test suite for conformance testing of a communication protocol. The proposed method has an advantage of an optimization technique which finds a minimum cost of test suite from a standardized specification, so this optimization technique of the CPP algorithm can be practically applied to a real environment for testing a conformity of a protocol implementation.

This paper proposes a Hardware-In-Loop(HIL) Simulator for a Wind Turbine and an operational control algorithm to evaluate the performance of a wind turbine control system. It provides not only for the validation of the control logics, safety functions and H/W failure, but also for the high reliability of the wind turbines (by reducing/and the reduction of the operating expense(OPEX) through performance evaluation tests with complex scenarios. On the other hand, the proposed simulator uses MATLAB, CODER, and the PLC library to operate in synchronization with the hardware, and a real-time processing-based wind turbine module including a dynamic model and control system, wind module, grid module and host PC to manage the HIL-simulator. Several experiments were carried out under the above concept to verify the effectiveness of the proposed WT HIL-simulator.

The IEEE 1588, commonly known as a precision time protocol (PTP), is a standard for precise clock synchronization that maintains networked measurements and control systems. The best master clock (BMC) algorithm is currently used to establish the master-slave hierarchy for PTP. The BMC allows a slave clock to automatically take over the duties of the master when the slave is disconnected due to a link failure and loses its synchronization; the slave clock depends on a timer to compensate for the failure of the master. However, the BMC algorithm does not provide a fast recovery mechanism in the case of a master failure. In this paper, we propose a technique that combines the IEEE 1588 with network bonding to provide a faster recovery mechanism in the case of a master failure. This technique is implemented by utilizing a pre-existing library PTP daemon (Ptpd) in Linux system, with a specific profile of the IEEE 1588 and it's controlled through bonding modes. Network bonding is a process of combining or joining two or more network interfaces together into a single interface. Network bonding offers performance improvements and redundancy. If one link fails, the other link will work immediately. It can be used in situations where fault tolerance, redundancy, or load balancing networks are needed. The results show combining IEEE 1588 with network bonding enables an incredible shorter recovery time than simply just relying on the IEEE 1588 recovery method alone.
