The analysis of relative pose(position and rotation) between stereo cameras is very important to determine the solution that provides three-dimensional information for an arbitrary moving target with respect to robot-end. In the space of free camera-model, the rotational parameters act on non-linear factors acquiring a kinematical solution. In this paper the general solution of active stereo that gives a three-dimensional pose of moving object is presented. The focus is to achieve a derivation of linear equation between a robot′s end and active stereo cameras. The equation is consistently derived from the vector of quaternion space. The calibration of cameras is also derived in this space. Computer simulation and the results of error-sensitivity demonstrate the successful operation of the solution. The suggested solution can also be applied to the more complex real time tracking and quite general and are applicable in various stereo fields.

This paper proposes a moving object detection algorithm for active camera system that can be applied to mobile robot and intelligent surveillance system. Most of moving object detection algorithms based on a stationary camera system. These algorithms used fixed surveillance system that does not consider the motion of the background or robot tracking system that track pre-learned object. Unlike the stationary camera system, the active camera system has a problem that is difficult to extract the moving object due to the error occurred by the movement of camera. In order to overcome this problem, the motion of the camera was compensated by using SURF and Pseudo Perspective model, and then the moving object is extracted efficiently using stochastic Label Cluster transport model. This method is possible to detect moving object because that minimizes effect of the background movement. Our approach proves robust and effective in terms of moving object detection in active camera system.

This paper proposes active power control and frequency support control schemes of wind turbine generation system by using modified Maximum Power Point Tracking(MPPT) of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator(PMSG). Most wind turbine generation system is completely decoupled from the power system and power output control with pitch control. According to the frequency deviation, however, MPPT control can not contribute to the frequency change of the power system due to its active power output control. For solving this, the de-loaded(DL) control scheme is constructed for the frequency support control, which is based on applying the active power output control in the rotor speed control of PMSG. The rotor speed by used in the proposed DL control scheme is increased more than the optimal rotor speed of MPPT, and then this speed improvement increases the saved kinetic energy(KE). In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme, the case studies have been performed using the PSCAD/EMTDC. The results show that the proposed active power output control scheme(DL control and KE discharge control) works properly and the frequency response ability of the power system can be also improved with the frequency support of wind farm.

An active virtual impedance algorithm is newly proposed to track a sound source and to avoid obstacles while a mobile robot is following the sound source. The tracking velocity of a mobile robot to the sound source is determined by virtual repulsive and attraction forces to avoid obstacles and to follow the sound source, respectively. Active virtual impedance is defined as a function of distances and relative velocities to the sound source and obstacles from the mobile robot, which is used to generate the tracking velocity of the mobile robot. Conventional virtual impedance methods have fixed coefficients for the relative distances and velocities. However, in this research the coefficients are dynamically adjusted to elaborate the obstacle avoidance performance in multiple obstacle environments. The relative distances and velocities are obtained using a microphone array consisting of three microphones in a row. The geometrical relationships of the microphones are utilized to estimate the relative position and orientation of the sound source against the mobile robot which carries the microphone array. Effectiveness of the proposed algorithm has been demonstrated by real experiments.

스네이크 알고리즘은 객체와 배경 사이의 활성 윤곽(active contour)을 추출하여 객체를 추적하는 기법으로 널리 사용되고 있지만, 객체 윤곽의 밝기 기울기 성분보다 배경에 존재하는 기울기 성분이 크면 객체 윤곽이 배경으로 잘못 수렴되는 문제를 갖는다. 또 객체의 급격한 이동으로 인해 객체의 윤곽이 탐색영역을 벗어나면 윤곽선이 객체의 내부로 수축되는(shrink) 현상이 발생하게 되어 객체 추적에 실패하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기존의 문제점을 개선한 새로운 스네이크 윤곽 추적 방법을 제안한다. 먼저, 객체 경계에 존재하는 평균 기울기 방향만을 고려하도록 개선된 에지 에너지 함수와 스플라인 경계의 안쪽과 바깥쪽 영역의 명암차를 이용한 컨트라스트 에너지 함수를 제안하여 윤곽선이 배경에 잘못 수렴되는 문제를 해결하였다. 또한 이전 프레임과 현재 프레임의 차영상으로부터 스네이크 포인터의 모션 벡터를 얻고 이를 이용하여 이전 프레임의 스네이크 포인터를 현재 프레임의 객체 윤곽 부근으로 빠르게 이동시켜 윤곽선이 객체 내부로 수축되는 현상을 방지하였다. 실험 결과 제안하는 기법은 기존 방법들에 비하여 복잡한 배경에 더 강인하며 움직임이 큰 객체를 정확하게 추적할 수 있었다.

최근 시스템과 네트워크를 위협하는 해킹, 바이러스 등의 공격이 증간하고 있다. 기존의 시스템 보안이나, 네트워크 관리 시스템(NMS)만 가지고는 다양하고 강력한 위협들에 대해서 안전하지 못하다. 따라서 Firewall, IDS, VPN, LAS(Log Analysis System) 등의 보안 시스템을 구축하여 시스템과 네트워크를 위협으로부터 방어해 왔다. 하지만 보안 시스템간의 상호 연계성이 부족하여 효과적인 대응체계를 마련하지 못하고 중복 보안으로 인한 비효율성이 지적되었다. 이에 대한 대책으로 통합 보안 관리가 필요하게 되었고 위협에 대해 적극적으로 대처할 수 있는 능동형 보안이 필요하게 되었다. 최근에는 통합 보안 관리(Enterprise Security Management), 침입자 추적(Intrusion Tracking), 침입자 유인(Intrusion Induction) 등으로 좀 더 효과적이고 적극적인 보안네트워크를 구성할 수 있다. 하지만 이 시스템들 또한 업체별 보안 시스템간의 상호 연통이 어려운 실정이고 대응 조치 또한 체계적이지 못하며 위협을 사전에 방지하지 못하고 사후 대처에 급급한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 원격에서 안전하게 네트워크를 관리할 수 있는 능동형 통합관리 모듈을 제안한다.

This paper presents an active auxiliary edge-resonant DC link snubber with a ringing surge damper and a three-phase voltage source type zero voltage soft-switching inverter with the resonat snubber treated here for the AC servo motor driver applications. The operation of the active auxiliary edge-resonant DC link snubber circuit with PWM voltage is described, together with the practical design method to select its circuit parameters. The three-phase voltage source type soft-switching inverter with a single edge-resonant DC link snubber treated here is evaluated and discussed for the small-scale permanent magnet (PM) type-AC servo motor driver from an experimental point of view. In addition to these, the AC motor stator current and its motor speed response for the proposed three-phase soft-switching inverter employing Intelligent Power Module(IPM) based on IGBTS are compared with those of the conventional three-phase hard-switching inverter using IPM. The practical effectiveness of the three-phase soft-switching inverter-fed permanent magnet type AC motor speed tracking servo driver is proven on the basis of the common mode current in a novel type three-phase soft-switching inverter-fed AC motor side and the conductive noise on the mains terminal interface voltage as compared with those of the conventional three-phase hard-switching inverter-fed permanent magnet type AC servo motor driver for the speed tracking applications.

Grid-connected inverters (GCIs) with an LCL output filter have the ability of attenuating high-frequency (HF) switching ripples. However, by using only grid-current control, the system is prone to resonances if it is not properly damped, and the current distortion is amplified significantly under highly distorted grid conditions. This paper proposes a synchronous reference frame equivalent proportional-integral (SRF-EPI) controller in the αβ stationary frame using the parallel virtual resistance-based active damping (PVR-AD) strategy for grid-interfaced distributed generation (DG) systems to suppress LCL resonance. Although both a proportional-resonant (PR) controller in the αβ stationary frame and a PI controller in the dq synchronous frame achieve zero steady-state error, the amplitude- and phase-frequency characteristics differ greatly from each other except for the reference tracking at the fundamental frequency. Therefore, an accurate SRF-EPI controller in the αβ stationary frame is established to achieve precise tracking accuracy. Moreover, the robustness, the harmonic rejection capability, and the influence of the control delay are investigated by the Nyquist stability criterion when the PVR-based AD method is adopted. Furthermore, grid voltage feed-forward and multiple PR controllers are integrated into the current loop to mitigate the current distortion introduced by the grid background distortion. In addition, the parameters design guidelines are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. Finally, simulation and experimental results are provided to validate the feasibility of the proposed control approach.
