In this paper, we describe the method of non-invasive blood pressure measurement using pulse wave transit time(PWTT). PWTT is a new parameter involved with a vascular that can indicate the change of BP. PWTT is measured by continuous monitoring of ECG and pulse wave. No additional sensors or modules are required. In many cases, the change of PWTT correlates with the change of BP. We measure pulse wave using the photo plethysmograph(PPG) sensor in an earlobe and we measure ECG using the ECG monitoring device our made in the chest. The measurement device for detecting pulse wave consists of infrared LED for transmitted light illumination, pin photodiode as light detector, amplifier and filter. We composed 0.5Hz high pass, 60Hz notch and 10Hz low pass filter. ECG measurement device consists of multiplexer, amplifier, filter, micro-controller and RF module. After amplification and filtering, ECG signal and pulse wave is fed through micro-controller. We performed the initial work towards the development of ambulatory BP monitoring system using PWTT. An earlobe is suitable place to measure PPG signal without the restraint in daily work. From the results, we can know that the dependence of PWTT on BP is almost linear and it is possible to monitoring an individual BP continuously after the individual calibration.

The design of mechanical structures aims to meet criteria, together with the safety of operators and lives in the vicinity of the equipment. Thus, there are several cases that meeting the desired specification causes the mechanical device to perform unstable and, sometimes, chaotic behavior. In these cases, control methods are applied in order to stabilize the device when in operation, aiming at the physical integrity of the component and the device operators. In this work, we will develop a study about the influence of a controller applied in a non-ideal capsule system operating with uncertain parameters, being non-existent in the literature. For this, two initial conditions were used: one that the capsule starts from rest and another that it is already in motion. Thus, the effectiveness of the controller can be assessed in both initial conditions, restricting the movement of the internal vibration-impact system to the capsule.

In this paper, auto-tuning technique of the PID controller gain by particle swarm optimization algorithm is presented. PID controller is easy to implement to numerous control systems. After PID gain tuning is completed, its result could be implemented to control spacecraft vibration such as jitter that is high frequency vibration usually over 10Hz. The off-line PID controller tuning is done under system nonlinearities and uncertainties existence, then its result is applied to control experiment device to prove the PSO efficiencies.

In this paper, we develop a control hardware such as an FPGA based general purpose controller with a DSP board to solve nonlinear control problems. PID control algorithms are implemented in an FPGA and neural network control algorithms are implemented in a DSP board. PID controllers implemented on an FPGA was designed by using VHDL to achieve high performance and flexibility. By using high capacity of an FPGA, the additional hardware such as an encoder counter and a PWM generator, can be implemented in a single FPGA device. As a result, the noise and power dissipation problems can be minimized and the cost effectiveness can be achieved. In order to show the performance of the developed controller, it was tested for controlling nonlinear systems such as an inverted pendulum.

An LQ controller design method is proposed for effective anti-sway control of boom type crane in this paper. It is important for high productivity that the sway of a load is controlled as fast as possible when the trolley arrives to the destination with maximum velocity. To prove the effectiveness of the proposed LQ controller. simulations and experiments using the boom type crane as experimental device is carried out. Tracking performance for a step type reference and robustness for the change of working environment such as the change of load weight and parameters produced by a wire rope and disturbance by the wind arc proved by the experiment. It will be examined that boom type crane can be applied to industrial fields through experiment in this paper.

기존에 연구된 사이버 물리 시스텀을 위한 동적 제어 미들웨어에서는 구성요소인 제어 장치 (Controller)가 동일한 지역망 내에 위치한 Controller를 검색하고자 할 때, 검색 하고자 하는 Controller카 자신의 상위 제어 및 관리 장치 (C&A, Controller & Administrator) 와 다른 C&A의 하위 노드인 경우, 전역의 C&A에게 모두 검색 메시지를 전송하는 심각한 문제가 존재 하였다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 비효율적인 문제를 해결하고자 같은 지역망 내의 C&A간 검색 메시지를 전달 (Forwarding) 하는 방식을 도입한다. 이를 통해 같은 지역망 내에 존재하는 Controller 검색을 위한 네트워크 트래픽을 크게 감소시킬 수 있다.

From the experiment results, we present the property of proposed fuzzy controller such as steady state error, the tracking and power consumption characteristic for the reference intensity of illumination. And also we show the superiority of power control as well as the characteristic of GUI monitoring system in the proposed system.

Developing FMS controllers has been a difficult problem largely because of the variety of the system configuration. The purpose of this paper is to develop a method of building an FMS controller. The controller consists of control module and execution module. A hierarchically layered structure of these modules is proposed. The control module generates abstract-level execution requested by identifying a set of activities that can be executed without creating any irregular state. The execution module transmits the requests to physical device controllers and reports back the completion of the requests to the control module. Both of these two modules use Petri Net-based models. In this paper, a controllable Petri Net model is automatically synthesized from declarative specifications provided by a user. An execution Petri Net model for the execution module is designed to ensure the consistency between the control module and the real target system. The controller operates in MMS on TCP/IP and UNIX environment.

This paper introduces a method for design and implementation of a current controller for boost converter operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) using a digital signal processor (DSP). A Proportional-Integral (PI) type current controller outputs an average voltage command for inductor, used in the input side of the boost converter, and the duty-ratio of PWM (pulse width modulation) signal for switching device is directly calculated from the average voltage command. The gains of the PI current controller are selected such that the current response characteristics are the same as those of a first-order low-pass filter. The proposed current control scheme is implemented using a DSP based on fixed-point math operations and an experimental study has been performed to validate the proposed method.
