In this paper, the effect of unobtainable channel frequency response (CFR) inside virtual subcarreiers on DFT-based channel estimation is derived and introduced numerically because the CFRs cause the leakage to the estimated channel and degrade the estimation performance. In addition, the performance of DFT-based channel estimation is analyzed with respect to the number of virtual subcarriers, pilot spacing and the number of unobtainable CFRs at equi-distance subcarriers inside virtual subcarriers.

A driving load estimation method for intelligent cruise control(ICC) vehicles has been proposed in this paper. The driving load is one of the most important factors of perturbations in vehicle control and can affect the control performance critically. The Effect of the control with driving load estimation on vehicle-to-vehicle distance control has been presented and investigated via computer simulations and vehicle tests. The results show that the control with driving load estimation can provide ICC system with a good acceleration tracking performance. In addition, the results show that driving load estimation can compensate not only variation of driving load but also the modeling errors.

The spatial population existing in a plane ares, such as an animal or aerial population, have certain relationships among regions which are located within a fixed distance from one selected region. We consider with the adaptive searching estimation in spatial sampling for a spatial population. The adaptive searching estimation depends on values of sample points during the survey and on the nature of the surfaces under investigation. In this paper we study the estimation by the adaptive searching in a spatial sampling for the purpose of estimating the area possessing a particular characteristic in a spatial population. From the viewpoint of adaptive searching, we empirically compare systematic sampling with stratified sampling in spatial sampling through the simulation data.

In this paper, we analyzed the influence of different observation stations distributions on satellite clock offset estimation based on the PANDA software. The result shows that, when the distance between stations is shorter than 200km, the correlation of troposphere parameter and satellite clock offset parameter is strong, the accuracy of satellite clock offset estimation will be up to 0.8ns; when the distance between stations is up to 500km, as the correction of troposphere parameter and satellite clock offset parameter is significantly reduced, and the two kinds of parameters can be distinguished.

In this paper, the iteration localization algorithm that NLOS signal is iteratively removed to get the exact location in the wireless sensor network is proposed. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, TDOA location estimation method is used, and readers are located on every 150m intervals with rectangular shape in $300m{\times}300m$ searching field. In that searching field, the error distance is analyzed according to increasing the number of iteration, sub-blink and the estimated sensor node locations which are located in the iteration range. From simulation results, the error distance is diminished according to increasing the number of the sub-blink and iteration with the proposed location estimation algorithm in NLOS environment. Therefore, to get more accurate location information in wireless sensor network in NLOS environments, the proposed location estimation algorithm removing NLOS signal effects through iteration scheme is suitable.

This paper proposes a method for estimating the location of a magnetized tip that is inside a non-transparent space or body by using arrayed giant magnetoresistance (GMR) sensors. In general, an object located in such an opaque space can be detected using X-rays, magnetic fields, ultra-sonic sensors, etc., depending on its characteristics. X-ray is mostly used for medical purposes but frequent exposure to it could cause harm to patients as well as doctors. In this study, how well a GMR sensor is applicable instead of an X-ray is investigated. The sensor's voltage output is experimentally fitted to distance with a relationship of 3rd degree polynomial. To detect a small magnetized tip with 900 Oe inside a human body, a 2×2 arrayed GMR sensor and a location estimation algorithm based on information acquired from four sensors is developed. Evaluation tests show that the suggested method is applicable to limited cases with a distance less than 33-55 mm, and the location of a magnet tip is estimated relatively well with an error less than 1.5 mm.

In this paper, the TTSE (Target size and Triangulation-based target Size Estimator) algorithm is proposed to estimate static target size in an imaging environment. The target size information is an important factor for accurate imaging target tracking. However, the imaging sensor cannot generate distance between the missile and target to calculate the target size. To overcome the problem, we propose the TTSE algorithm, which is based on target size and triangulation. The proposed method performance is tested in a target intercept scenario. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance than the conventional algorithm (ET-TSE) for accurate CCD target size estimation.

In this paper, an approach is developed for relative state estimation of satellite formation flying. To estimate relative states of two satellites, the Extended Kalman Filter Algorithm is adopted with the relative distance and speed between two satellites and attitude of satellite for measurements. Numerical simulations are conducted under two circumstances. The first one presents both chief and deputy satellites are orbiting a circular reference orbit around a perfectly spherical Earth model with no disturbing acceleration, in which the elementary relative orbital motion is taken into account. In reality, however, the Earth is not a perfect sphere, but rather an oblate spheroid, and both satellites are under the effect of $J_2$ geopotential disturbance, which causes the relative distance between two satellites to be on the gradual increase. A near-Earth orbit decays as a result of atmospheric drag. In order to remove the modeling error, the second scenario incorporates the effect of the $J_2$ geopotential force, and the atmospheric drag, and the eccentricity in satellite orbit are also considered.

In this research, intelligent protection system for laser boat is introduced. The function of system is to measure the distance and velocity of object from our boat and generate control signals to avoid collision with moving targets. A novel approach to estimate object's position from our ship is tackled on this paper. To do this laser sensors are used to measure distance from ship to targets. The ship position and velocity is estimated by th Kalman filter algorithm. In the real phase, the filtering method will be applied to process signal gathered by laser sensors. Simulation to estimate ship's position and velocity under noise are executed and the results are introduced to show the effectiveness of the algorithm.

This paper proposes a robust lane detection algorithm for bumpy or slope changing roads by estimating extrinsic camera parameters, which represent the pose of the camera mounted on the car. The proposed algorithm assumes that two lanes are parallel with the predefined width. The lane detection and the extrinsic camera parameter estimation are performed simultaneously by utilizing B-snake in motion compensated and merged feature map with consecutive sequences. The experimental results show the robustness of the proposed algorithm in various road environments. Furthermore, the accuracy of extrinsic camera parameter estimation is evaluated by calculating the distance to a preceding car with the estimated parameters and comparing to the radar-measured distance.
