A study of flow characteristics of supersonic fluidic oscillators with shared feedback channel inside was carried out. Unsteady CFD analysis were performed and the numerical results were validated by comparison with the experimental ones observed for the same operation conditions. It was found that the mass flow between individual oscillators through the shared feedback channel directly influenced on the oscillating flow mechanism inside the oscillator, and finally on the synchronization of the jet oscillations. It was also observed that the oscillator with shared feedback channel provided higher pressure loss as well as higher oscillation frequency as compared to the single oscillator of the same geometric shape.

Synchronous computing models provided by real-time synchrony protocols, such as TTA [1] and PALS [2], greatly simplify the design, implementation, and verification of real-time distributed systems. However, their application to real systems has been limited since their assumptions on underlying systems are hard to satisfy. In particular, most previous real-time synchrony protocols hypothesize the existence of underlying fault tolerant real-time networks. This, however, might not be true in most soft real-time applications. In this paper, we propose a practical approach to a synchrony protocol, called Quality-Aware PALS (qPALS), which provides the benefits of a synchronous computing model in environments where no fault-tolerant real-time network is available. qPALS supports two flexible global synchronization protocols: one tailored for the performance and the other for the correctness of synchronization. Hence, applications can make a negotiation flexibly between performance and correctness. In qPALS, the Quality-of-Service (QoS) on synchronization and consistency is specified in a probabilistic manner, and the specified QoS is supported under dynamic and unpredictable network environments via a control-theoretic approach. Our simulation results show that qPALS supports highly reliable synchronization for critical events while still supporting the efficiency and performance even when the underlying network is not stable.

The security of digital image has become increasingly important with the development of the computing performance and internet. Therefore, the encryption algorithms exploiting chaos signal have recently attracted considerable attentions as a new method of image-encryption techniques. In this Paper, it is demonstrated that two different chaotic systems are synchronized by the methods of noise-induced synchronization. Based on this synchronization method, an image-encryption system is implemented and an image of Seok-Ga-Tap is encrypted as a verification of the performance of our system. The method suggested in this paper in which the noise is used as the key of decryption is superior to the existing methods in the aspect of the degree of encryption. In this paper, we Propose that the method is a new effective encryption algorithm as well as an easily applicable one.

This study is an empirical research of the stock markets to prove the synchronization phenomenon of the world economy. For this research I analyzed Korea's KOSPI, USA's DOW & NASDAQ reflecting stock markets in North America, Japan's NIKKEI in Asia, and Germany's DAX in Europe. Because the raw series are not stationary, they are to be transformed to returns series. The results of the study are follows: First of all, there are significant causalities between KOSPI's returns and those of other indices. Second, feedback effects are found between the market returns with several time lags. Third, there are 4 cointegrating equations which embody the relation of the five returns series. And forth, KOSPI reacts more sensitively to impacts from the foreign indices compared to the other indices do when they got impacts from each other except KOSPI. On conclusion, there exists a clear evidence for the synchronization phenomenon in returns of the stock indices, and we can expect Korea market may get similar changes depending on the economic changes of North America, Europe, or Asia. Therefore more closing researches should be conducted about the world economy synchronization in various fields as soon as possible.

This paper presents a fuzzy model-based approach for synchronization of time-delay chaotic system with input saturation. Time-delay chaotic drive and response system is respectively represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model. Specially, the response system contains input saturation. Using the unidirectional linear error feedback and the parallel distributed compensation (PDC) scheme, we design fuzzy chaotic synchronization system and analyze local stability for synchronization error dynamics. Since time-delay in the transmission channel always exists, we also take it into consideration. The sufficient condition for the local stability of the fuzzy synchronization system with input saturation and time-delay is derived by applying Lyapunov-Krasovskii theory and solving linear matrix inequalities (LMI's) problem. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed approach.

In this paper, a fully adaptive feedforward feedback synchronized tracking control approach is developed for precision tracking control of 6 degree of freedom (6DOF) Stewart Platform. The proposed controller is designed in decentralized form for implementation simplicity. Interconnections among different subsystems and gravity effect are eliminated by the feedforward control action. Feedback control action guarantees the stability of the system. The gains of the proposed controller can be updated on line without requiring any prior knowledge of Stewart Platform manipulator. Thus the control approach is claimed to be fully adaptive. By employing cross-coupling error technology, the proposed approach can guarantee both of position error and synchronization error converge to zero asymptotically. Because the actuators work in synchronous manner, the tracking performances are improved. The corresponding stability analysis is also presented in this paper. Finally, simulation is demonstrated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

An isolated feedback method for measuring the inverter DC-link voltage is proposed. This method provides a simple and economical solution to inverter control systems that use a flyback converter as a controller power supply. In the proposed method, data on the DC-link voltage are acquired when the primary side voltage appears on the secondary side of the flyback transformer, thereby eliminating the need to adopt an extra signal isolation method. To solve the non-synchronization problem between the flyback converter switching and main controller sampling, the external interrupt function of the micro-controller is used as a trigger signal for the A/D conversion.

Chaos is one of the most significant topics in nonlinear science, and has been intensively studied since the Lorenz system was introduced. One characteristic of a chaotic system is that the signals produced by it do not synchronize with any other system. It therefore seems impossible for two chaotic systems to synchronize with each other, but if the two systems exchange information in just the right way, they can synchronize. This paper addresses the problem of synchronization in a modified Lorenz chaotic system based on active control, sliding mode control, and the Lyapunov stability theory. The considered synchronization scheme consists of identical drive and response generalized systems coupled with linear state error variables. For this, a brief overview of the modified Lorenz chaotic system is given. Then, control rules are derived for chaos synchronization via active control and slide mode control theory, with a strategy for solving the chattering problem. The asymptotic stability of the overall feedback system is established using the Lyapunov stability theory. A set of computer simulation works is presented graphically to confirm the validity of the proposed method.

Sample timing offset (STO) and carrier frequency offset (CFO) are caused by inter-symbol interference (ISI), inter-carrier interference (ICI) and phase error in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system. OFDM characteristic is sensitive about STO and CFO. So when ICI occurs, compensation is hard and complex equalizer is needed. In this paper, we propose an effective correction method using feedback process with pilot and synchronization symbol. After feedback with estimated value in frequency domain, STO and CFO are corrected by control sample & and holder and oscillator. As a result of simulation, we confirm that STO and CFO can be corrected without equalizer through feedback.

The fuzzy-based SAM algorithm is proposed in this thesis to reduce the idle time. to recover call truncation fast when it is handed off and to last frequency acquisition in the mobile communications. It has additive and adaptive elements. Its weight values are generated not by feedback but by input conversion values. The initial expectation value is defined and forwardㆍbackward searching is executed 4o produce the expectation value of one chip. The fuzzy-based SAM algorithm is applied to the demodulator in CDMA system, and the synchronization time is measured. Synchronization time of PN code is 1.678$\mu\textrm{s}$ by SAM algorithm. It is 993 times faster than time of the conventional systems, 1.667$\mu\textrm{s}$.
