An elevator system, which is essential equipment for vertical movement of an object, as a property of building, has been driven by various expenditures and purposes. Since developing electrical control technology, control system are highly developed. The elevator system has expanded widely, but a data accuracy acquisition technique and safety predict technique for securing system safety is still at a basic level. So, objective verification for elevator confidence condition requires an absolute accuracy measurement technique. Therefore, this study is executed in order to acquire a method of depending on sense of a manager with simple numeric measurement data, and to construct a logical, analytical foresight system for more efficient elevator management system. As an artificial intelligence for diagnosis, the fuzzy inference algorithm is used for foreseeing the system in this thesis, because the fuzzy algorithm is the most useful method for resolving subjective ideas and a vague judgment of humans. The fuzzy inference algorithm is developed for each sensor signal(i.e. vibration, velocity, current).

In this paper, a predictive fuzzy control algorithm to supervise the elevator system with plural elevator cars is proposed and its performance is evaluated. Elevator group controller must decide the service elevator for a registered hall call to satisfy the multiple control objects. The proposed group control algorithm ensures the efficient operations of the group cars and provides the improved level of service, coping with multiple control objects and uncertainty of system state. The feasibility of the proposed control algorithm is evaluated by simulation on computer.

Getting on and off an elevator is one of the most important parts for multi-floor navigation of a mobile robot. In this study, we proposed the method for the pose recognition of elevator doors, safe path planning, and motion estimation of a robot using RGB-D sensors in order to safely get on and off the elevator. The accurate pose of the elevator doors is recognized using a particle filter algorithm. After the elevator door is open, the robot builds an occupancy grid map including the internal environments of the elevator to generate a safe path. The safe path prevents collision with obstacles in the elevator. While the robot gets on and off the elevator, the robot uses the optical flow algorithm of the floor image to detect the state that the robot cannot move due to an elevator door sill. The experimental results in various experiments show that the proposed method enables the robot to get on and off the elevator safely.

This study deals with finding a schedule for the movement of a material handling device (elevator) in a manufacturing plant. Two different algorithm (Traveling Salesman Technique and Greedy Algorithm) are used in the scheduling of the elevators using a simulation technique to determine the proper method of scheduling the elevator movement. Based on the simulation analysis, we have found that the Greedy algorithm serves better than the algorithm based on Traveling Salesman technique for scheduling the movement of a material handling device in the manufacturing plant.

This paper proposes an initial rotor position detecting algorithm of a PM synchronous motor using an incremental encoder. The proposed algorithm estimates the phase offset between the rotor magnetic flux and the Z-pulse of the incremental encoder by applying six aligning mode current control. The absolute rotor position for driving a PM synchronous motor is calculated by using the phase offset of the Z pulse and A, B pulse signals of the encoder. The PMSM drives based on the estimated rotor position is applied to the elevator door system. The door length is measured on line at first setup of the elevator. The speed control for open, close, and reopen of the elevator door is also presented and the proposed algorithm for the elevator door system is verified by experiment.

Currently, the Collective Control Algorithm is the most popular elevator algorithm. The Collective Control Algorithm allows the user to use the elevator when the direction of movement of the elevator and the direction of the user's destination are the same. However, the algorithm has a problem in that only one elevator responds to a user's call when the user's waiting time and using multiple elevators. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a new hybrid HRN algorithm based on the highest response ratio next (HRN) algorithm. In general, HRN Algorithm requires a user's boarding time and getting off time, but due to the nature of the elevator, it is difficult to predict the user's call in advance. Therefore, to overcome these limitations, this paper proposes Hybrid HRN Algorithm that considers the distance between the user's call location and the arrival location. This paper shows that Hybrid HRN Algorithm, proposed through experiments, has an average waiting time of 23.34 seconds, a standard deviation of 11.86, a total moving distance of 535.2m, a total operating time of 84sec, and a driving balance between the two elevators is 92m, which is superior to the previously suggested Collective Control, Zoning, and 3-Passage Algorithm.

This paper proposes a new operation algorithm for elevator by considering both better service for passengers and minimization of energy consumption for elevator operation. The main idea of the proposed operation algorithm is based on the assumption that passengers push the numbered buttons indicating their destination, one of the main differences of proposed operation mode from the conventional one is that the elevator may move to the opposite direction for a few floors according to the rescheduled operational pattern determined by some factors. Some examples by computer simulation show the efficiency of the proposed operation algorithm.

In this paper, a predictive fuzzy control algorithm to supervise the elevator system with plural elevator cars is developed and its performance is evaluated. Elevator group controller must decide which of the cars is suitable for responding the registered hall call and allocate it to the selected car controller. In most cases, the purpose of group control is to minimize waiting time of passengers and occurrence of long wait as much as possible. The proposed algorithm ensures the efficient operations of the group cars and provides the improved level of service, coping with multiple control objects and uncertainty of system state. The feasibility of the proposed control algorithm is evaluated by graphic simulator on computer.

Handling Passenger Traffic is the main challenge for designing an elevator group-control algorithm. Advanced control systems such as Hyundai's Destination Selection System(DSS) lets passengers select the destination by pressing on a selecting screen, and the systems have shown great efficiency. However, the algorithm cannot be applied to the general elevator control system due to the expensive cost of the technology. Often many elevator systems use Nearest Car(NC) algorithms based on the SCAN algorithm, which results in time efficiency problems. In this paper, we designed an elevator group-control algorithm for specific buildings that have approximate timetable data for most of the passengers in the building. In that way, it is possible to predict the destination and the location of passenger calls. The algorithm consists of two parts; the waiting function and the assignment function. They evaluate elevators' actions with respect to the calls and the overall situation. 10 different timetables are created in reference to a real timetable following midday traffic and interfloor traffic. The specific coefficients in the function are set by going through the genetic algorithm process that represents the best algorithm. As result, the average waiting time has shortened by a noticeable amount and the efficiency was close to the known DSS result. Finally, we analyzed the algorithm by evaluating the meaning of each coefficient result from the genetic algorithm.
