A coaxial rotor flying robot is developed for surveying and reconnoitering various circumstances under calamity environment. The robot has two contrarotating rotors on a common axis, an embedded microcontroller, an IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit), an IR sensor for height control, a micro camera for surveillance, ultrasonic position sensors and wireless communication devices. A bell-bar mounted on the top of the upper rotor hub increases stability and improves flight performance. In this paper, we present a dynamic model of a coaxial rotor flying robot and design an embedded controller far the robot, and implement them to control the developed flying robot. Experimental results show that the proposed controller is valid for autonomous hovering and position control.

본 논문에서는 PON(Passive Optical Network)망의 장애진단을 위한 임베디드 네트워크 제어기를 설계하고 구현하였다. 본 연구에서 구현한 임베디드 네트워크 제어기는 PON망의 가장 말단인 수용가의 인터넷 공유기에 부착되어 수용가의 인터넷 선로장애를 진단할 수 있도록 구현함으로서 인터넷 서비스 제공자(ISP)의 NMS가 점검할 수 없는 영역까지 장애를 진단할 수 있다. 또한, 임베디드 네트워크 제어기는 PON망의 장애진단 뿐만 아니라 수용가의 가전제품 전원제어나 다양한 센서를 부착하여 제어할 수 있도록 제작하여 간단한 홈오토메이션 제어기로 활용할 수 있도록 설계하였다.

Conventional home audio system (e.g. AV Receiver, CD Player etc) has a various functionality of audio play, channel mixing, but the remote controller of these audio players is too complex, difficult for user to manage them effectively. Users want to use these functionalities with more easy, comprehensible way. In this study, "intelligent real-sound presentation technology" that support high quality, realistic audio and the "design of complex information and controller of real sound using intelligent real sound play and control interface" will be introduced. So user can actively, realistically enjoy and play real sound based on user's preference, emotion and circumstance, instead of user's passive service.

As the number of the installed escalators in Korea continues to increase, the accident rate is also increasing. Therefore, it would be necessary to proactively secure safety. PESSRAE is a controller that implements safety functions as electric/electronic/programmable electronic devices to respond to risks that may occur in escalators. Safety Integrity Level (SIL) is assigned to the safety functions of PESSRAE and it must be verified that the quantitative target value according to the SIL level is satisfied. In this paper, the initial PESSRAE is analyzed using the FMEDA (Failure Mode, Effects and Diagnostic Analysis), which is a quantitative safety analysis method, and design improvement specifications are derived from the analysis in order to satisfy the quantitative target values. Based on the derived design specifications, the improved PESSRAE controller was manufactured. And the appropriateness of the design was verified experimentally in a testbed environment simulating the real environment.

In this paper, we constructed Embedded web-server to be monitored and controlled for intelligent vehicle on the base of embedded system and Zigbee wireless communication. By interfacing main controller and embedded system with ECU including every information of vehicle, it is possible to monitor the cruising information of vehicle, and sensor signal added to inside and outside of vehicle is transferred to embedded system through Zigbee communication. Web-server is constructed using embedded system, that's why the access to vehicle is possible using PC or mobile instrument, and the real-time check and control of vehicle is possible as well.

The plate manufacturing processes are composed of the reheating furnace, finishing mill, cooling process and hot leveling. The finishing rolling mill (FM) as a reversing mill has produced the plate steel through multiple pass rolling. The automatic gauge control (AGC) is employed to maintain the thickness tolerance. The high grade products are forming greater parts of the manufacturing and customers are requiring strict thickness margin. For this reason, the advanced AGC method is required instead of the conventional AGC based on the PI control. To overcome the slow response performance of the conventional AGC and the thickness measurement delay, a fuzzy AGC based on the thickness deviation and its trend is proposed in this paper. An embedded controller with the fuzzy AGC has been developed and implemented at the plate mill in POSCO. The fuzzy AGC has dynamically controlled the roll gap in real time with the programmable logic controller (PLC). On line tests have been performed for the general and TMCP products. As the results, the thickness deviation range (maximum - minimum of the inner plate) is averagely from 0.3 to 0.1 mm over the full length. The fuzzy AGC has improved thickness deviation and completely satisfied customer needs.

Processors for a base station controller such as call control processor have to serve usersdemand. Some of processors have been still used for the processing of call and 0&M (operation and maintenance) management by adopting embedded board type. This type can not provide users with a wide variety of environments for testing and debugging. User environments are regarded as a primary system factor in most systems and this is particularly so in designing and implementing the processor for base station controller in mobile communication systems. We describe the design and implementation of new user environment tool named QUEST for the next generation mobile communication system, IMT-2000. The simulation results of performance evaluations demonstrate that our system performs well for a base station controller without performance degradation.

The aim of this paper is to propose a less conservative stabilization condition for leader-following sampled-data control of wheeled mobile robot (WMR) systems by using a clock-dependent Lyapunov function (CDLF) with looped functionals. In the leader-following WMR system, the state and input of the leader robot are measured by digital devices mounted on the following robot, and they are utilized to construct the sampled-data controller of the following robot. To design the sampled-data controller, a stabilization condition is derived by using the CDLF with looped functionals, and formulated in terms of sum of squares (SOS). The considered Lyapunov function is a polynomial form with respect to the clock related to the transmitted sampling instants. As the degree of the Lyapunov function increases, the stabilization condition becomes less conservative. This ensures that the designed controller is able to stabilize the system with a larger maximum sampling interval. The simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
