In this paper, propose for mobile robot path planning and the reduction in sleep caused by a sleep history suggested a way to compensate for record sensor error. The proposed path plan reduces the robot slip to smooth a potential barrier in the potential field method, and compensates the tachometer error by robot slip using the fuzzy logic system. The efficiency of the proposed method is verified by means of simulations and experiments for path plan and slip revision.

센서 네트워크 환경에서 센서 노드에게 가장 큰 이슈는 저전력이다. 이러한 센서 노드에서 저전력화를 제공하는 것은 하드웨어 뿐만 아니라 소프트웨어에서도 중요하다. 유휴 시간에 마이크로 컨트롤러가 활성 상태로 대기 하는 대신 마이크로 컨트롤러가 제공하는 파워 슬립 모드를 이용하여 모든 주변 장치의 전원을 차단함으로서 저전력을 실현할 수 있다. 그러나 빈번한 슬립 모드 진입은 오히려 더 많은 전력을 소비하기 때문에 슬립 모드로 들어가는 시기와 나오는 시기를 적절하게 제어 하는 것은 쉬운 일이 아니다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 타이머 인터럽트를 활용하여 슬립 모드 제어 정책을 포함하는 컴포넌트 기반의 멀티 스레드 지원 센서 OS를 구현하였다. 코드 크기의 최적화로 성능 향상을 꾀하였으며, 이로서 전력 소비도 줄일 수 있다. 또한, 컴포넌트 기반의 구조는 다양한 하드웨어를 쉽게 지원할 수 있으며, 응용 분야에 따라 다양한 어플리케이션을 쉽게 제작할 수 있도록 설계하였다.

This paper proposes a power management scheme for sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks based on sensor node operating system supporting the sensor transparency, which can turn off the sensors when the MCU is in sleep mode. We classify the sensors in two types, that is, event sensors and polling sensors, to be able to decide whether the sensor is a type of sensors whose power supply can be turned off or not, and we design a new scheduler to support recognition of those different types of sensors. Implementing and evaluation of the scheduler and the power manager supporting sensor transparency are shown based on Nano-Q+.

A sensorless vector control of an induction motor provides a good performance in the middle and high speed region. However, in the low speed region, it is very difficult to implement the sensorless vector controller because the feeding voltage measured by the motor is very low. In this paper, we designed the sensorless vector controller of an induction motor using the estimate of the slip frequency. To verify the performance of the proposed controller, an experiment has been performed.

To manufacture a robot hand that essentially mimics the functions of a human hand, it is necessary to develop flexible actuators and sensors. In this study, we propose the design, manufacture, and performance verification of flexible actuators and sensors based on Electro Active Polymer (EAP). EAP is fabricated as a type of film, and it moves with changes in the voltage because of contraction and expansion in the polymer film. Furthermore, if a force is applied to an EAP film, its thickness and effective area change, and therefore, the capacitance also changes. By using this mechanism, we produce capacitive actuators and sensors. In this study, we propose an EAP-based capacitive sensor and evaluate its use as a robot hand sensor.

Recently, the interest in autonomous vehicle which is an aggregate of the automotive control technology is increasing. In particular, researches on the self-localization technology that is directly connected with stable driving of autonomous vehicle have been performed. Various dead reckoning technologies which are solutions for resolving the limitation of GPS have been introduced. However, the conventional dead reckoning technologies have two disadvantages to apply on the autonomous vehicle. First one is that the expensive sensors must be equipped additionally. The other one is that the accuracy of self-localization decreases caused by wheel slip when the vehicle's motion changed rapidly. Based on this background, in this paper, the wheel speed sensor which is equipped on most of vehicles was used and the dead reckoning algorithm considering wheel slip ratio was developed for autonomous vehicle. Finally, in order to evaluate the performance of developed algorithm, the various simulation were conducted and the results were compared with the conventional algorithm.

본 논문에서는 H-브릿지 멀티레벨 인버터를 이용한 고전압 대용량 유도 전동기 구동을 위한 단순하고 강인한 속도 센서리스 제어를 소개하였다. H-브릿지 멀티레벨 인버터는 고전압 대용량화, 우수한 입출력 전력품질, 모듈화, 그리고 설치 조건 편의성으로 인해 고전압 대용량 유도 전동기 가변속 용도로 적용이 확대되고 있지만, V/F 운전시의 대표적인 단점인 저속 영역에서의 낮은 토오크, 무부하 혹은 경부하 조건의 전류 및 전동기 진동, 그리고 전동기 슬립에 의한 속도 변동은 대용량 유도 전동기의 인버터 적용에 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 따라서, 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해 속도 센서가 필요 없으며 전동기 상수에 강인한 속도 센서리스 제어를 전류 및 슬립 보상을 적용하여 유도 전동기의 기동 토오크 증대, 경부하 진동 억제, 그리고 속도 제어 특성을 향상 시켰다.

Induction motors are relatively cheap and rugged machines. For the vector control of induction motors, a position or speed sensor is needed. But a speed sensor increases motor cost and reduces reliability in harsh environment. Recently, many studies have been performed for sensorless speed control. This paper investigates an improved flux observer with the parameter error compensation for a sensorless induction motor. The proposed algorithm is verified through simulation and experiment.
