In general, the information of inertia properties is required to control a spacecraft. The inertia properties are changed by some activities such as consumption of propellant, deployment of solar panel, sloshing, etc. Extensive estimation methods have been investigated to obtain the precise inertia properties. The gyro-based attitude data including noise and bias needs to be compensated for improvement of attitude control accuracy. A modified estimation method based on the law of conservation of angular momentum is suggested to avoid inconvenience like filtering process for noise-effect compensation. The conventional method is modified and beforehand estimated moment of inertia is applied to improve estimation efficiency of product of inertia. The performance of the suggested method has been verified for the case of STSAT-3, Korea Science Technology Satellite.

In this paper, we investigate and analyze the problems encountered in frame-based estimation of TDOA(Time Difference of Arrival) using CPSP function. Spectral leakage occurring in framing of a speech signal by a rectangular window makes estimation of CPSP spectrum inaccurate. Framing with a Hamming window to reduce the spectral leakage effect distorts the signal due to the different weighting at temporally same sample, which make the TDOA estimation using CPSP function inaccurate. In this paper, we solve this problem by reducing the dynamic range of the spectrum of a speech signal with preemphasis. Experimental results confirm that the framing of pre-emphasized microphone output with a rectangular window shows higher success ratio of TDOA estimation than any other framing methods.

This paper presents the method of parameter estimation of diffusion model for monitoring Demand-Side Management Program. Bass diffusion model was applied in this paper, which has different values according to parameters ; coefficients of innovation, imitation and potential adopters. Though it is very important to estimate three parameter, there are no empirical results in practice. Thus, this paper presents the method of parameter estimation in case of few data with constraints to reduce the possibility of bad estimation. The constraints are empirical results or expert's decision. Case studies show the diffusion curves of high-efficient lighting and also forecasting of the peak value for power demand considering diffusion of high-efficient lighting, the feedback and least-square parameter estimation method used in this paper enable us to evaluate the status and forecasting of the effect of DSM program.

As a countermeasure against the threat of jamming which can disrupt operation of the Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, various kinds of technique to estimate the Direction-Of-Arrivals (DOAs) of incoming jamming signals have been widely studied, and among them, the MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC) algorithm is known to provide very high resolution. However, since the previous studies regarding the MUSIC algorithm does not consider the orientation of each antenna element of antenna arrays, there is a possibility that DOA estimation performance degrades in the case of a misaligned antenna array whose antenna elements are not oriented along the same direction. As an effort to solve this problem, there exists a previous work which presents an MUSIC-based method for DOA estimation. However, the error between the real and measured values of each antenna orientation is not taken into consideration. Therefore, in this paper, the effect of the aforementioned error on the DOA estimation performance in the case of a misaligned antenna array is analyzed by simulations.

Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) use dual frequency signals to remove ionosphere delay effect. GNSS receivers have their own biases, called inter-frequency bias (IFB) between dual frequencies due to differential signal delays in receiving each frequency codes. The IFB degrades pseudo-range and ionosphere delay accuracies, and they must be accurately estimated. Simultaneous estimation of ionosphere map and IFB is applied in order to analyze the IFB estimation accuracy and variability. GPS network data in Korea is used to compute each receiver's IFB. Accuracy changes due to ionosphere model changes is analyzed and the effect of external GNSS satellite IFB on the receiver IFB is analyzed.

The conditional expectation of a random variable in a multivariate normal random vector is a multiple linear regression on its predecessors. Using this fact, the least median of squares estimation method developed in a multiple linear regression is adapted to a multivariate data to identify influential observations. The resulting method clearly detect outliers and it avoids the masking effect.

Tracking control of an automatic pipe cutting robot (APCROMB) is studied. Using magnetic force APCROMB, which is designed and developed in Kyung Hee University, binds itself to the pipe and executes unmanned cutting process. The gravity effect on the movement of APCROMB varies as it rotates around the cylindrical pipe laid in the gravitational field. To maintain a constant velocity and consistent cutting performance against the varying gravitational effect, the authors adopt a multi-rate repetitive learning controller (MRLC), which learns the required effort to cancel the repetitive tracking errors caused by nonlinear effect. In addition to the varying gravity effect other types of nonlinear disturbances including backlash in the driving system and the slip between the wheels of APCROMB and the pipe also cause degradation in the cutting process. In order to identify those nonlinear disturbances the position estimation based on the encoder attached at the motor is not good enough. To identify the absolute angular position of APCROMB the authors propose the angular position estimation based on the signals from a MEMS-type two-axis accelerometer mounted on APCROMB. The tracking performances of APCROMB with a MRLC using the encoder-based position estimation is experimentally measured and results are shown. Also the difference between the encoder-based angular displacement measurement and the accelerometerbased angular displacement measurement is included.

수중 이동체의 시험평가 과정에서 정확한 거리 추정은 중요한 요소 가운데 하나이다. 특히, 도달 시간 값을 이용하여 거리를 추정하는 경우 상관 특성 등으로 인해 처프 신호인 Linear Frequency Modulation(LFM)과 같은 신호의 적용성이 높다. 하지만 이동성이 있는 도플러 천이 환경에서는 거리-도플러 커플링 효과로 인하여 측정 오류가 발생할 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 거리-도플러 커플링 효과를 보상하여 도달 시간 값의 측정 오류를 감소시키는 신호를 제시한다. 제안된 신호는 2종류의 LFM 신호를 중첩하여 구성하였으며, 거리-도플러 커플링 효과를 최소화할 수 있다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 신호가 수중 이동체의 거리 추정에 있어서 거리-도플러 커플링 효과를 보상하여 도달 시간 값의 측정 오류를 줄이는 방법임을 확인하였다.

A method for estimating the floor response spectra (FRS) of elastic structures under earthquake excitations is proposed. The method is established based on a previously proposed direct estimation method for single degree of freedom systems, which generally overestimates the FRS of a structure, particularly in the resonance period range. A modification factor is introduced to modify the original method; the modification factor is expressed as a function of the period ratio and is determined through regression analysis on time history analysis results. Both real and artificial ground motions are considered in the analysis, and it is found that the modification factors obtained from the real and artificial ground motions are significantly different. This suggests that the effect of ground motion should be considered in the estimation of FRS. The modified FRS estimation method is further applied to a 10-story building structure, and it is verified that the proposed method can lead to a good estimation of FRS of multi-story buildings.

The antenna pattern in this case has a main beam pointed in the desired signal direction, and has a null in the direction of the interference.The conventional antenna pattern concepts of beam width, side lobes, and main beams are not used, as the antenna weights are designed to achieve a set performance criterion such as maximization of the output SNR.A new direction of arrival estimation method using effects of model errors and sensitivity analysis is proposed. Two subspaces are used to form a signal space whose phase shift between the reference signal and its effects of model error signal. Through simulation, the performance showed that the proposed method leads to increased resolution and improved accuracy of DOA estimation relative to those achieved with existing method. Since a desired signal is obtained after interference rejection through correction effects of model error, the effect of channel interference on the estimation is significantly reduced.
