In this paper, an operational algorithm for a 2-shaft parallel hybrid electric vehicle is suggested for the minimization of operation cost. The operation cost is obtained as a summation of the engine fuel cost and the motor electricity cost. The electrical cost function is estimated in case of motoring, and generating when the recuperation is carried out during the braking. In addition, weight function is introduced in order to maintain the battery state of charge. Based on the operation algorithm, the optimal engine operation point that minimizes the operation cost is obtained with respect to the required vehicle power for every state of charge of battery. The optimal operation point provides the optimal power distribution of the engine and the motor for a required vehicle power Simulation was performed and the fuel economy of the hybrid vehicle was compared to that of the conventional vehicle. Simulation results showed that hybrid vehicle's fuel economy can be improved as much as 45∼48% compared to the conventional vehicle's.

무인 자율 자동차는 사람이 차량 제어에 개입할 수 있는 일반적인 '무인 자동차'와는 달리 센서, 메라와 같은 '장애물 인식장치'와 GPS모듈 과 같은 '자동 항법 장치'를 기반으로 조향, 변속, 가속, 브레이크를 도로환경에 맞춰 스스로 제어해 목적지까지 주행할 수 있는 차량을 의미한다. 따라서 무인 자율 주행 자동차에는 차량제어기술, 차선인식기술, 충돌 회피 기술 등이 필요 하며 이를 위해 각종 센서뿐만 아니라 센서 네트워크, 컴퓨터비전, 인공지능 등의 다양한 기술들이 접목되어야 한다. 본 논문은 소형 무인자동차의 제작을 통한 알고리즘과 그 평가에 대해서 나타낼 것이다.

Recently, unmanned systems have been studied and developed in various areas including aircrafts, automobiles and vessels. In addition, many researches about unmanned systems in Korea have been studying actively with the advancement of IT However, it is not satisfied with the result of the researches and developments. Bemuse of the reason we've here tried to make a very small USV which is a barge type. We applied the Great circle navigation calculation based on GPS to the autonomous navigation algorithm and used the LabVIEW 8.2 developed by NI corp. for programming The engine and rudder were controlled by pulse width modulation method. The engine system was composed of the DC motor and ESC(Electronic Speed Controller). It was also applied by the direct cooling system using DC motor pump. A very small USV was designed and made by ourself and it was verified the effectiveness of autonomous navigation algorithm through the tests at the sea.

Recently, high-cost energy storage systems are applying to hybrid generation systems with wind turbine and diesel generator in island areas for stable operation. But, this paper proposes an operating algorithm and modeling method of an islanding microgrid that is composed of PMSG(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator) and Diesel Generator applied in island areas without such energy storage system. Initially, the operating algorithm was proposed for frequency and voltage to be maintained within the proper ranges for the load and weather change. And then the modeling method were proposed for PMSG, WT-side AC/DC converter and Grid-side DC/AC converter. The proposed operating algorithm and modeling method were applied to a typical islanded microgrid with PMSG wind turbine and diesel generator. The frequency and voltage was kept within the permissible ranges and the proposed method was proven to be appropriate through simulations.

In this paper we propose a Wavelet- based compression algorithm of HDTV video signals for the purpose of recording HDTV signals in the digital VTR. Comparing to the DCT- based compression method, which only yields unrecognizable DCT coefficients, the low frequency components of Wavelet coefficients maintain recognizable spatial domain information. So, it is more suitable for various VTR operations such as editing and multi-speed mode operations. Also, the adopted Wavelet filter can be Implemented with simple shift operations, which can reduce the computational complexities substantially. The quality of reconstructed HDTV signals with a 4:1 compression ratio turns out to be good enough for the studio use.

가속차선이 교통류의 운영상태와 안전에 기여하는 바는 벌써부터 인식되어 왔으나 이 변속차선이 유입형 연결로 접속부 전체의 운영에 미치는 영향을 수치화하거나 체계적으로 평가하기 위해 현장 자료를 바탕으로 한 실험적 연구는 진행되어 오지 못하엿다. 현재 널리 참고되고 있는 1985년 USHCM의 접속부 운영상태 분석 방법론은 단지 차선 1의 교통량을 예측하는 데 주안점을 두고 있는데 가속 차선의 길고 짧음에 따라 접속부 바로 전 차선 1의 교통량 분포가 크게 변화한다는 사실(많은 현장 관측을 통해 확인)은 고려하지 못하고 있다. 이는 접속부 운영 상태가 같은 교통량 조건하에서도 크게 차이가 나나다는 것을 뜻하며 가속차선의 존재를 무시한채 운영과 관련한 MOE를 도출하는 것이 서비스수준 산정 방법으로 충분한 것인가 하는 의문을 자연히 낳게 한다. 본 논문은 가속차선이 고속도로 연결로 접속부의 운영에 미치는 영향을 주로 다루고 있다. 가속차선의 독립적인 역할과 영향을 체계적으로 관찰하기 위해 미국내 여러 지역에서 8개의 고속도로 연결로접속부를 선택하고 각 지점에 접속부의 상하류 지역을 포함하는 2,000ft 구간내에 다섯대의 카메라를 설치, 지점별로 약 3시간 동안 자료를 수집하였다. 총 193개 자료수의 분석을 통해서 다중 회귀 모형을 구성하는 독립변수로 가속차선의 길이를 사용하는 것이 타당하다고 결론지었으며, 접속부 운영의 질, 특히 속도를 추정하기 위한 모형을 수립하였다. 본 연구를 통해 얻어진 관점과 방법론은 1994USHCM 고속도로 연결로 분석 방법론 설정에 일부분 반영되고 잇으며 특히 교통운영과 흐름의 방식에서 유사한 엇갈림 구간의 분석 방법과 일관성 있는 분석 체계 마련을 위해서 서비스수준 산정 절차 정립에 엇갈림 알고리즘을 활용하는 방안을 제시하였다.

This article deals with the analytic results on the development and application of the Spherical CVT. The Spherical CVT is marked by its simple configuration, the infinite torque multiplication characteristic, and the smooth transitions between forward/neutral/reverse states of output speed. In this study, we describe the conceptual principles behind the Spherical CVT and some applications of it, which we developed recently. And, we propose the shifting algorithm based on the analytic consideration of CVT powertrain system. Contrary to conventional shifting algorithms using the OOL(optimal operating line) of the power source, the proposed shifting algorithm is represented as a $2^{nd}$ order equation in an explicit form, and it reveals the possibility of theoretic design of all optimal controller. As an example, we present numerical results that demonstrate the energy saving possible and the proposed shifting algorithm from the use of the Spherical CVT over standard reduction gear unit, using an ideal dc motor model.

This paper proposes the compensation algorithm of conventional shift pattern using fuzzy reasoning in automatic transmission vehicles. Recently, automatic transimssion vehicles are continually increasing because of theire ease to drive. Also users require the high performance which includes the smooth shift quality and shift scheduling that matches driver;s intentions. So the shift scheduling has been inproved significantly through the application of electronic control. But, in spite of this development, vehicles using conventional shift pattern are sometimes in discord with driver's intention on roads. In this paper, the paper, the proposed compensation algorithm makes a automatic transmission vehicle be able to select an optimal gear shifting time and position using fuzzy reasoning and make a vehicle driver feel confortable even when the vehicle runs on roads which is extremely changed. Therefore, a vehicle driver can expect to reduce the nimber of unnecessary gear shifting and expect the fuel efficiency high. To show usefulness of the proposed method, some simulation are made to compared with conventional gear shifting. Paper prosposes the compensation mehtod of conventional shift pattern using fuzzy reasoning for the purpose that a vehicle can select an optimal gerar shifting time and position in automatic vehicle. Though the conventional shift pattern has no pliability, vehicle driver can feel comfortable and can reduce the number of unnecessary gear shifting using the proposed method on variable road condition. Therefore, it can be expected the fuel efficiency.

In this paper, an energy regeneration algorithm is proposed to make the maximum use of the regenerative braking energy for a parallel hybrid electric vehicle(HEV) equipped with a continuous variable transmission(CVT). The regenerative algorithm is developed by considering the battery state of charge(SOC), vehicle velocity and motor capacity. The hydraulic module consists of a reducing valve and a power unit to supply the front wheel brake pressure according to the control algorithm. In order to evaluate the performance of the regenerative braking algorithm and the hydraulic module, a hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) is performed. In the HILS system, the brake system consists of four wheel brakes and the hydraulic module. Dynamic characteristics of the HEV are simulated using an HEV simulator. In the HEV simulator, each element of the HEV powertrain such as internal combustion engine, motor, battery and CVT is modelled using MATLAB/$Simulink^{(R)}$. In the HILS, a driver operates the brake pedal with his or her foot while the vehicle speed is displayed on the monitor in real time. It is found from the HILS that the regenerative braking algorithm and the hydraulic module suggested in this paper provide a satisfactory braking performance in tracking the driving schedule and maintaining the battery state of charge.
