The prevalence of microprocessor-based controllers in automotive systems has greatly increased the need for tools which can be used to validate and test control systems over their full range of operation. The objective of this paper is to develop a real time simulator of traction control system by the methodology of using hardware-in-loop simulation based on a personal computer. By use of this simulator, the analysis of commercial electronic control units and components for TCS were performed successfully. The simulator of this research can be applied to development of more advanced control systems(suck as vehicle dynamics control system) and other automotive system.

The automobile networks consist of the communication bus systems which become independent and heterogeneous each other. Most often, the CAN buses are implemented in a car in order to connect all the electronic control units in various ways. Thus, some gateways are necessary for exchanging the useful information between electronic control units on the buses. The automobile body networks group is divided into two kinds on a large scale, namely the low-speed bus and the high-speed bus. To interchange messages between the two, a CAN signal gateway is designed and implemented in a miniature scale. A network analyzer (called "Vehicle spy") and an oscilloscope monitor network situation to confirm the due operation of CAN signal gateway. The efficiency of the designed gateway is evaluated. The more message thread increased, the more efficiency decreased.

In this paper a self-tuning gain-scheduled skyhook control for semi-active suspension systems is investigated. The dynamic characteristics of a continuously variable damper including electro-hydraulic pressure control valves is analyzed. A 2-d.o.f. time-varying quarter-car model that permits variations in sprung mass and suspension spring coefficient is considered. The self-tuning skyhook control algorithm proposed in this paper requires only the measurement of body acceleration. The absolute velocity of the sprung mass and the relative velocity of the suspension deflection are estimated by using integral filters. The skyhook gains are gain-scheduled in such a way that the body acceleration and the dynamic tire force are optimized. An ECU prototype ...

Seeing is an intelligent act. Retina is the most important part among the components of eye which is comprised of iris, pupil, lens, optic disk, and so forth. Because retina acts like a photo receiver to detect light from every object, if damaged, animals have a severe problem to live along with themselves and sometimes they lose their sight. In the ophthalmology, doctors use special instrument to see exact retina image of object and operate the surgery by rotating focus control knob. In this study, a basic test is done to achieve the auto focus control instrument. Specially made sledge and attenuator are installed on the optic bed to change the distance and laser power between the first reflective mirror and the second one. Control panel which is compiled by Visual C t t to control stepping motors ,laser power and photodiode are implemented with ADA-board.

The liquid phase LPG injection engine is a new technology to make good use of LPG as a clean energy. However, it is difficult to precisely control air/fuel ratio in the system because of variation of fuel composition, change of temperature and flash boiling injection mechanism. This study newly suggests an injector control logic for liquid phase LPG injection systems. This logic compensates a number of effects such as variations of density, stoichiometric air/fuel ratio, injection delay time, injection pressure, release pressure which is formed by flash boiling of fuel at nozzle exit. This logic can precisely control air/fuel ratio with only two parameters of intake air flow rate and injection pressure without considering fuel composition, fuel temperature.

Compressors in Large Multi-room air conditioning system are often driven by gas heat pumps. The advantages of GHP are their high level of heating performance and low cost because they use the LNG fuel to drive engine. We developed engine control system. The developed system controls engine speed based on proportional, integral and derivative (PID) method. This controller is designed to eliminate the need for continuous operator attention on engine revolution control. The control system includes 4 spark coil drivers, fuel drivers and relay drivers to make engine's operating more stable. The experiments of control engine revolution of this system are based on the various load conditions.

Increasing demand for safety features, driving comfort and operational convenience in automobiles requires an intensive use of electronic components such as sensors, actuators and Electronic Control Unit(ECU)'s. These growing number of electronics has given rise to problems concerning the increasing number, size and weight of the wiring harnesses. In order to resolve these problems, multiplexed wiring systems such as Controller Area Network(CAN) serial communication protocol are applied in vehicle. This paper introduces the development of Body Control Module(BCM)s using multiplexed wiring systems. The BCM's were developed and implemented using CAN, the most popular choice of in-vehicle communication protocols.

This paper presents an PID type fuzzy based method for nohnear engine idle controller The output is a duty cycle(DC) for driving a idle speed cont개l valve(1SCV). For precise control of SI engine, the CPS sensor and coolant temperature are used. Visual C* language is used to make simulation panel for the fast and precise idle speed control. The dSPACE board and supported Control desk program is used in experiment ta the same purpose as simulation. The experimental results have a good agreement with simulation ones.

Electronic control system of the engine is composed of various sensors and actuators, This paper is concerned with fault analysis for the stable operation of it. We suggest the technology that can systematically and reliably analyze fault causes of sensors and actuators by using the fault generating program. In results, we can acquire the systematic road map of occurring faults as well as the valuable information related to the operations of sensors and actuators. These results should be very useful to get the classification of fault causes, develop an electronic control system of engine, and review control strategies of it.
