An intelligent accurate sun tracking controller for solar lighting system was developed. This controller can detect the faulty sensor and correct the error signal based on Principle Component Analysis theory. A fuzzy controller was developed to control the tracker by using the collected sensor signal for precise position control. Also a multiple range searching sensor module for sun tracking was designed. To show the validity of the developed system, some experiments in the field were illustrated.

GPS를 이용한 이동차량 모니터링시스템은 현재 급속도로 발달되고 있는 실시간 물류추적 및 관리시스템이라 할 수 있다. GPS는 물류 관리에 있어서 가장 기본적인 차량의 위치를 추적하는데 매우 편리한 시스템으로 현재의 물류차량의 위치를 정확하고 신속하게 실시간으로 확인할 수 있는 범지구 위성 위치추적 시스템이다. 물류의 경우 물류의 신속 정확한 전달을 위해서는 물류가 이동되고 있는 과정에서 가장 빠른 경로를 찾고 거리를 환산하여 운송시의 시간을 계산하여야 한다. 그러기 위해서는 물류차량의 시시각각 변하는 위치에 대한 모니터링을 해야할 필요가 있다.

Various studies such as INS(: Inertial Navigation System) are conducting to estimate the position of UAV, because the GPS information of UAV is at risk like the GPS jamming. The position estimation using DoA and RTT are used to apply many radar systems, and that process can be applied in datalink of UAV. The general monopulse feed in UAV datalink is Multi-horn, because of the wide BW(: Band Width) and frequency range. And it needs wide SNR range of tracking because of the limited transmit power of airborne unit. The estimation error of position increase at low SNR, and the DoA is valid in only 3dB beam width but high SNR causes false of mainlobe detection because of large sidelobe. In this paper, We propose the method to achieve higher accuracy of DoA estimation on low SNR and review some idea that able to detect mainlobe.

This paper presents the moving object tracking method using vision system. In order to track object in real time, the image of moving object have to be located the origin of the image coordinate axes. Accordingly, Fuzzy Control System is investigated for tracking the moving object, which control the camera module with Pan/Tilt mechanism. Hereafter, so the this system is applied to mobile robot, we design and implement image processing board for vision system. Also fuzzy controller is implemented to the StrongArm board. Finally, the proposed fuzzy controller is useful for the real-time moving object tracking system by experiment.

The study was performed on the development of system in which the bead width can be controlled. In order to control the bead width, we designed the automatic seam tracking device by attaching the probe type strain gauge sensor, motor driving slide and encoder to check the moving distance, and interface card connected MCU(80Cl96KC) upside the speed controllable carriage. Seam tracking experiments were done by changing the bead width. We compared and analyzed the sampling data which were obtained by output voltage of strain gauge sensor and rotary encoder pulse every 50ms.

There are TOA, TDOA and AOA method to estimate the position of the electromagnetic wave transmitter by using the multiple receivers at the fixed position. Among these methods, AOA method is suitable for the jammer localization system. Because TOA method can be adopted for the clocks of the transmitter and the receiver are synchronized each other, and TDOA method can be only adopted for a broad-band jamming signal. This paper, therefore, analyzes the characteristics of the AOA measurements and the sensitivity of the positioning performance according to the system design parameters. Based on the analyzed results, the jammer localization system to meet the desired performance is designed, and it has been checked that the positioning error for the jammer located at a distance of 10km is lower than 38m through the simulation results.

In photovoltaic(PV) system, for obtaining maximum efficiency of solar power systems, the solar tracking system must be controlled to match position of the sun. In this paper, we design the solar tracking system to track movement of the sun using CdS sensor modules and to determine direction of the sun under shadow of directions. In addition, for an intelligent computation in tracking of the sun, a fuzzy controller is allocated to space avaliable for splitting area of fuzzy part for the fuzzy input space(grid-type fuzzy partition) in which a fuzzy grid partition divides fuzzy rules bases. As well, a simple model of solar tracking system is designed by two-axis motor control systems and the 8-direction sensor module that can measure shadow from CdS sensor modules by matching of axis of CdS modules and PV panels. We demonstrate this systems is effective for fixed location and moving vessels and our fuzzy controller can track the satisfactorily.

About 91.1% of Railway-Highway Crossings (RHC) in Korea use a Constant Distance Warning System(CDWS), while about 8.9% use a Constant Warning Time System(CWTS). The CDWS does not recognize speed differences of approaching trains and provides only waiting times to vehicles and pedestrians based on the highest speed of approaching trains. Under the CDWS, therefore, low speed trains provide unnecessary waiting times at crossings which often generates complains to vehicle drivers and pedestrians and may cause wrong decisions to pass the crossings. The objective of this research is to improve the safety of the RHC by developing accurate a CWTS. In this research a train speed and location detection system was developed with ultra sonic detectors. Locations of the detectors was decided based on the highest speed and the minimum warning time of Saemaul of 160 km/h. To validate the algorithms of the newly developed systems the lab tests were conducted. The results show that the train detection system provides accurate locations of trains and the maximum error between real speeds of trains and those of the system was 0.07m/s.

최근 통신기술의 발달로 사용자의 위치 정보에 기반한 다양한 위치기반서비스(Location Based Service)가 각광을 받고 있다. 위치기반서비스의 경우 대부분 GPS(Global Positioning System)정보를 사용하지만 실내에서는 위성정보를 받을 수 없어서 위치추적이 어려운 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 실내 공간에서 사용자의 위치를 추적하기 위해 비콘을 이용한 위치 찾기 서비스를 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 기존 비콘 통신 방법인 비콘을 고정시키고 고가의 수신기를 휴대해야 하는 단점을 보완하였다. 이를 위해 비콘과 수신기의 역할을 변경하여 수신기를 고정시키고 비콘에 이동성을 주어, 실내에서도 사용자들이 보다 저렴하고 효율적으로 사용할 수 있도록 구현하였다. 특히, 삼각측량법을 활용하여 보다 정확한 위치를 찾도록 구현하였다.

실내에서는 GPS 신호를 수신할 수 없으므로 자신의 위치를 알 수 없다. 최근에 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 와이파이 엑세스 포인트(AP)를 이용한 실내 위치 정보 수집 방법들이 제안되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 AP를 이용한 이동체의 이동경로를 저장하는 시공간 데이터 모델 방법을 제안한다.
