Recently, many electronic control techniques for vehicles have been developed and applied. One of the technologies can be X-by-wire such as throttle-by-wire, brake-by-wire, steer-by-wire, and etc, in which most of mechanical parts are replaced into electrical wire and actuators. In this study, the effect of throttle-by-wire and brake-by-wire control systems on vehicle velocity control, especially in a school zone, are taken into consideration. The number of accidents reported in school zones is higher than that in other places. The reason for this is that many vehicle drivers do not obey speed limit regulations. Moreover, some of the students are careless while crossing the streets. Therefore, in this study, we attempt to develop a method using throttle-by-wire and brake-by-wire control systems for automatically reducing the vehicle speed such that it will be within the speed limit. First, an engine model and a transmission system model are developed for a specific vehicle model. Second, speed reduction is carried out such that the reduction follows a pre-designed cubic spline trajectory; the trajectory is determined such that rapid deceleration, which causes discomfort to the driver and passengers, can be prevented, for which a fuzzy-PID control algorithm is applied for the trajectory following control. Finally, simulation results are presented to verify the performance of the proposed speed reduction control system.

This paper describes the development of unmanned vehicle remote control system which is configured with steering and accelerating/braking hardware to improve the sense of reality and safety of control. Generally, in these case of the remote control system, a joystick-type device is used for steering and accelerating/braking control of unmanned vehicle in most cases. Other systems have been developing using simple steering wheel, but there is no function of that feedback the feeling of driving situation to users and it mostly doesn't include the accelerating/braking control hardware. The technology of feedback means that a reproducing the feeling of current driving situation through steering and accelerating/braking hardware when driving a vehicle in person. In addition to studying feedback technologies that reduce unfamiliarity in remote control of unmanned vehicles, it is necessary to develop the remote control system with hardware that can improve sense of reality. Therefore, in this study, the reliable remote control system is developed and required system specification is defined for applying force-feedback haptic control technology developed through previous research. The system consists of a steering-wheel module similar to a normal vehicle and an accelerating/braking pedal module with actuators to operate by feedback commands. In addition, the software environment configured by CAN communication to send feedback commands to each modules. To verify the reliability of the remote control system, the force-feedback haptic control algorithms developed through previous research were applied, to assess the behavior of the algorithms in each situation.

In this study, Speed-sensitive vehicle brake using the LED, When the driver presses the brake pedal, range step while being turned in connection taillights brake of the vehicle, such as speed-sensitive vehicle brake using the LED, It is turned on according to the deceleration of the vehicle to be series of points are displayed. The rear vehicle can prevent collision about an abrupt stop of preceding vehicle by perceiving deceleration state of preceding vehicle easier and faster. Also, if the inter-vehicle distance by using an ultrasonic sensor is closer than a certain distance, the emergency light turns on to convey the situation to the driver of the rear vehicle with a buzzer.

본 논문은 고정폐색구간에서 차량운전 특성과 속도패턴이 다양한 다종의 열차들이 동일선로에서 복합되어 고밀도 운행을 위한 방법으로, 신호현시에 대한 제반정보를 차상으로 전송 받아 기관실 신호표시반에 신호를 현시 하는 차상신호방식(Cab Signalling System)중에서, 선행열차의 위치, 선로조건 등 지상의 상태정보를 후속열차가 수신하여 열차 자신의 제동특성 등 차량정보와 비교 분석하여 제동거리를 계산하는 distance to go 방식으로 열차운전속도를 제어하는 ATP (Automatic Train Protection) 시스템을 제안하였다. 폐색구간별 고정된 신호속도단계가 부여되는 ATC(Automatic Train Control) 시스템에서는 운행패턴이 같은 단일차종의 열차만 운행하는 구간에서는 일정속도에 의한 폐색구간 분할로 구간내 distance to go 신호체계가 이루어지지만, 차종과 속도패턴이 서로 상이한 복합열차들의 운행구간에서는 안전거리 확보를 위하여 저속열차의 제동거리를 기준으로 폐색구간 분할 및 속도결정이 이루어지므로 ATP 방식보다 운행효율이 다소 떨어짐을 알 수 있었다. 이를 차량특성과 속도패턴이 다른 3개의 열차를 모델로 하여 열차별 감속도에 의한 제동특성을 ATC와 ATP 신호제어체계에 접목시켜 시뮬레이션을 하였다.

Lane tracking and obstacle avoidance are considered two of the key technologies on an unmanned ground vehicle system. In this paper, we propose a method of lane tracking and obstacle avoidance, which can be expressed as vehicle control, modeling, and sensor experiments. First, obstacle avoidance consists of two parts: a longitudinal control system for acceleration and deceleration and a lateral control system for steering control. Each system is used for unmanned ground vehicle control, which notes the vehicle's location, recognizes obstacles surrounding it, and makes a decision how fast to proceed according to circumstances. During the operation, the control strategy of the vehicle can detect obstacle and perform obstacle avoidance on the road, which involves vehicle velocity. Second, we explain a method of lane tracking by means of a vision system, which consists of two parts: First, vehicle control is included in the road model through lateral and longitudinal control. Second, the image processing method deals with the lane tracking method, the image processing algorithm, and the filtering method. Finally, in this paper, we propose a method for vehicle control, modeling, lane tracking, and obstacle avoidance, which are confirmed through vehicles tests.

최근 전기 철도 시스템에서 높은 속도 제어 성능, 친환경성, 에너지 절약, 탁월한 유지 보수성에 있어서 전기 제동시스템이 주목받고 있다. 전기 제동이라 함은 전기 모터의 힘으로써 차량의 속도를 감속하고, 정지하는 것을 말하는데, 감속을 위해 모터에서 역토크를 발생시킴으로써 모터가 발전기로 동작하게 된다. 이때 감소되는 운동 에너지가 전기 에너지로 변환 되는데, 이 에너지를 회생 에너지라 한다. 특히 전동차에서는 추진시스템이 VVVF 인버터로 바뀌어 가면서 회생 제동이 가능해지게 되었지만, 여전히 몇 가지 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 회생 제동이 기계 제동에 비해서 뛰어난 점을 분석하고 전기 제동법이 안고 있는 문제점을 언급한다. 또한 이를 보완하기 위한 방안으로서 연구되고 있는 방법을 나열하고 각각의 특성에 대해 살펴본다.

Brake system in railway train operates to reduce the speed of the train or to stop the train via changing the kinematic energy into heat energy for emission and so brake system makes an important rule to transport passenger and cargo for safety operation. Recently operators have a matter of grave concern for the verification of performance in brake system. To verify the exact performance of brake system, most of brake test has been carried out on real operating track condition. Therefore we will determine the braked weight of indirect brake system applied in Iran DMU(Diesel Multiple Unit) in accordance with mc leaflet 544-1, which is to enable Iran DMU to achieve the required braking distances in defined situation.
