This paper proposes a torque control method for surface mounted permanent magnetic synchronous motor (PMSM) driven by a 2-level voltage source driven inverter, which has fast torque response and small torque ripple. The proposed torque control method follows the finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) strategy. A reference state is derived at each time step for the given time varying torque reference and the cost index is defined so that the tracking error for this reference state should be penalized. The choice of an optimal output voltage vector is made first from the 6 possible active voltage vectors of the 2-level voltage source inverter. Then a modulation factor for the chosen optimal voltage vector is obtained so that the torque ripple can be reduced further. It is shown that the proposed FCS-MPC control method yields fast torque tracking response and small torque ripple through simulation and experiments.

A family of smart tuned mass dampers (STMDs) with variable frequency and damping properties is analyzed under harmonic excitations and ground motions. Two types of STMDs are studied: one is realized by a semi-active independently variable stiffness (SAIVS) device and the other is realized by a pendulum with an adjustable length. Based on the feedback signal, the angle of the SAIVS device or the length of the pendulum is adjusted by using a servomotor such that the frequency of the STMD matches the dominant excitation frequency in real-time. Closed-form solutions are derived for the two types of STMDs under harmonic excitations and ground motions. Results indicate that a small damping ratio (zero damping is the best theoretically) and an appropriate mass ratio can produce significant reduction when compared to the case with no tuned mass damper. Experiments are conducted to verify the theoretical result of the smart pendulum TMD (SPTMD). Frequency tuning of the SPTMD is implemented through tracking and analyzing the signal of the excitation using a short time Fourier transformation (STFT) based control algorithm. It is found that the theoretical model can predict the structural responses well. Both the SAIVS STMD and the SPTMD can significantly attenuate the structural responses and outperform the conventional passive TMDs.

Recently, high-performance HMDs (Head-Mounted Display) are becoming wireless due to the growth of virtual reality technology. Accordingly, environmental constraints on the hardware usage are reduced, enabling multiple users to experience virtual reality within a single space simultaneously. Existing multi-user virtual reality platforms use the user's location tracking and motion sensing technology based on vision sensors and active markers. However, there is a decrease in immersion due to the problem of overlapping markers or frequent matching errors due to the reflected light. Goal of this study is to develop a multi-user virtual reality moving platform in a single space that can resolve sensing errors and user immersion decrease. In order to achieve this goal hybrid sensing technology was developed, which is the convergence of vision sensor technology for position tracking, IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensor motion capture technology and gesture recognition technology based on smart gloves. In addition, integrated safety operation system was developed which does not decrease the immersion but ensures the safety of the users and supports multimodal feedback. A 6 m×6 m×2.4 m test bed was configured to verify the effectiveness of the multi-user virtual reality moving platform for four users.

8-VSB(Vestigial Side-Band) 변조 기술을 이용하여 ATSC(Advanced Television Systems Committee) 규격을 만족하는 디지털 TV 튜너를 개발하였다. 이중(double)주파수 변환 및 능동 트래킹 여파기를 튜너 전치단에 이용하여 이미지 응답 및 IF(Intermediate Frequency)Beat 성분들의 억압, 인접 채널과 다채널 수신 시 상호 간섭배제 성능을 만족할 수 있도록 이용하였다. 그러나 NTSC(National Television Systems Committee) 튜너와는 달리, 이중 주파수 변환을 이용하는 디지털 TV 튜너는 트래킹 필터 및 첫 번째 전압제어발진기 사이의 주파수 상관 관계가 존재하지 않는다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 마이크로 콘트롤러, EEPROM(Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory), 디지털/아날로그 변환기, 차동 증폭기 및 스위치 드라이버가 조합된 하드웨어 및 트래킹 전압에 따른 주파수 특성에 대한 주파수 매핑을 구하여 자동 주파수 선택이 가능한 변형된 구조 및 방법을 제시하였다.

Interest about social security has recently increased in favor of safety for infrastructure. In addition, advances in computer vision and pattern recognition research are leading to video-based surveillance systems with improved scene analysis capabilities. However, such video surveillance systems, which are controlled by human operators, cannot actively cope with dynamic and anomalous events, such as having an invader in the corporate, commercial, or public sectors. For this reason, intelligent surveillance systems are increasingly needed to provide active social security services. In this study, we propose a core technique for intelligent surveillance system that is based on swarm robot technology. We present techniques for invader enclosing using swarm robots based on multiple distributed object environment. The proposed methods are composed of three main stages: location estimation of the object, specified object tracking, and decision of the cooperative behavior of the swarm robots. By using particle filter, object tracking and location estimation procedures are performed and a specified enclosing point for the swarm robots is located on the interactive positions in their coordinate system. Furthermore, the cooperative behaviors of the swarm robots are determined via the result of path navigation based on the combination of potential field and wall-following methods. The results of each stage are combined into the swarm robot-based invader-enclosing technique on multiple distributed object environments. Finally, several simulation results are provided to further discuss and verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed techniques.

능동 스테레오 비젼 시스템은 목표물 판별을 위해서 간단한 연산만으로 작은 시차값을 가지는 특징들만을 통과시킴으로써 목표물 위치 측정을 가능케 한다. 그런데 이 간단한 방법은, 복잡한 배경이 포함되거나 시차가 영인 영역에 다른 물체들도 동시에 존재하면 적용이 어렵게 된다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 시야 중심 영역의 해상도는 높이고 일반적으로 중요도가 낮은 주변의 해상도는 감소시키는 포비에이션 기법을 필터링 방법과 결합시켰다 포비에이트 영상 표현을 위하여 영상 피라미드 또는 로그폴라 변환을 사용하였다. 또한 추적이 수행되는 동안에 스테레오 시차가 작은 값이 유지되도록 투영을 이용하여 스테레오 시차를 추출하였다. 실험 결과는 로그폴라 변환이 복잡한 배경으로부터 목표물을 분리하는 제안된 방법이 영상 피라미드 또는 기존 방법보다 우수하며, 추적성능을 상당히 개선함을 보여주고 있다.

This paper presents improved harmonics extraction based on Adaptive Linear Neuron (ADALINE) algorithm for single phase photovoltaic (PV) shunt active power filter (SAPF). The proposed algorithm, named later as Improved ADALINE, contributes to better performance by removing cosine factor and sum of element that are considered as unnecessary features inside the existing algorithm, known as Modified Widrow-Hoff (W-H) ADALINE. A new updating technique, named as Fundamental Active Current, is introduced to replace the role of the weight factor inside the previous updating technique. For evaluation and comparison purposes, both proposed and existing algorithms have been developed. The PV SAPF with both algorithms was simulated in MATLAB-Simulink respectively, with and without operation or connection of PV. For hardware implementation, laboratory prototype has been developed and the proposed algorithm was programmed in TMS320F28335 DSP board. Steady state operation and three critical dynamic operations, which involve change of nonlinear loads, off-on operation between PV and SAPF, and change of irradiances, were carried out for performance evaluation. From the results and analysis, the Improved ADALINE algorithm shows the best performances with low total harmonic distortion, fast response time and high source power reduction. It performs well in both steady state and dynamic operations as compared to the Modified W-H ADALINE algorithm.

Interference and jamming are becoming increasing concern to a radar system nowdays. AESA(Active Electronically Steered Array) antennas and adaptive beamforming(ABF), in which antenna beam patterns can be modified to reject the interference, offer a potential solution to overcome the problems encountered. In this paper, we've developed a planar active phased array radar system, in which ABF, target detection and tracking algorithm operate in real-time. For the high output power and the low noise figure of the antenna, we've designed the S-band TRMs based on GaN HEMT. For real-time processing, we've used wavelenth division multiplexing technique on fiber optic communication which enables rapid data communication between the antenna and the signal processor. Also, we've implemented the HW and SW architecture of Real-time Signal Processor(RSP) for adaptive beamforming that uses SMI(Sample Matrix Inversion) technique based on MVDR(Minimum Variance Distortionless Response). The performance of this radar system has been verified by near-field and far-field tests.

전 지구적으로 기후 변화와 해수면상승에 대한 관심이 집중되면서 빙하의 변위 속도에 관한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 빙하의 속도와 관련된 연구에서 현장관측 방법이 가장 정확한 데이터를 취득할 수 있으나 데이터 취득의 어려움으로 위성레이더를 활용한 오프셋 트래킹 기법이 활발하게 활용되고 있다. 오프셋 트래킹은 관측 정밀도가 위상 기반의 지표변위 관측 기법(위성레이더 간섭기법, 위성레이더 다중개구간섭기법)에 비하여 떨어지는 한계가 존재하였으나 최근 연구에 의하여 개선되었다. $Uv{\hat{e}}rsbreen$ 빙하 지역은 최근 연구에 의하여 1.5 m/year의 속도로 빙하의 고도가 저하된다는 사실이 밝혀졌다. 그 만큼 이 지역은 빙하 변위 속도는 기후변화에 큰 영향을 받고 있으며 장기적인 기후변화를 관측하고 예측하는 데에 중요하게 활용될 수 있다. 하지만 이 지역에 대한 구체적인 연구 사례는 거의 존재하지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 개선된 위성레이더 오프셋 트래킹 기법을 활용하여 $Uv{\hat{e}}rsbreen$ 지역의 2차원 변위 속도를 관측하였다. 그 결과 연간 최대 133.7 m/year의 속도로 빙하가 이동하는 것이 확인되었다. 관측 정밀도는 아지무스 방향과 레인지 방향에 대하여 각각 5.4 그리고 3.3 m/year이었다. 이 결과는 장기적인 빙하의 고도 변화에 관한 연구 그리고 기후 변화에 따른 환경 영향 평가 연구에 활용될 것이다.
