The conventional studies about an adaptive beamformer assumed that the interference signals are stationary, so they used time-average of signals or Least Mean Squares. However, these methods showed low performance of canceling the non-stationary interferences. In this paper, the MAFF-RLS algorithm is developed in order to cancel non-stationary interferences, and the GSC structure using this algorithm is proposed. Furthermore, the performance of the MAFF-RLS beamformer is verified by simulation using MATLAB. This simulation results show the performance of the proposed beamformer is better than that of the SMI and the conventional RLS beamformer.

In this paper, we propose a seamless intra MR-BS handover scheme based on IEEE802.16j transparent. The proposed scheme estimates the outage probability of mobile stations at a base station, finds the optimum relay user, and provides low handover latency for seamless data transmission. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional handover schemes in terms of the handover latency by 65% of conventional scheme. Moreover, the proposed scheme exhibits lower packet error rate compared with the conventional handover scheme when a mobile station moves to outside of the cell coverage and reduce both outage probability and the number of handover about 50% from setting forgetting factor and redundant threshold.

The Self Tuning Regulator(STR) method which is an approach of adaptive control theory, is ap-plied to design the fully automatic power controller of the nonlinear reactor model. The adaptive control represent a proper approach to design the suboptimal controller for nonlinear, time-varying stochastic systems. The control system is based on a third­order linear model with unknown, time-varying parameters. The updating of the parameter estimates is achieved by the recursive extended least square method with a variable forgetting factor. Based on the estimated parameters, the output (average coolant temperature) is predicted one-step ahead. And then, a weighted one-step ahead controller is designed so that the difference between the output and the desired output is minimized and the variation of the control rod position is small. Also, an integral action is added in order to remove the steady­state error. A nonlinear M plant model was used to simulate the proposed controller of reactor power which covers a wide operating range. From the simulation result, the performances of this controller for ramp input (increase or decrease) are proved to be successful. However, for step input this controller leaves something to be desired.

The control of diamond turning is usually achieved through a laser-interferometer feedback of slide position. The limitation of this control scheme is that the feedback signal does not account for additional dynamics of the tool post and the material removal process. If the tool post is rigid and the material removal process is relatively static, then such a non-collocated position feedback control scheme may surfice. However, as the accuracy requirement gets tighter and desired surface cnotours become more complex, the need for a direct tool-tip sensing becomes inevitable. The physical constraints of the machining process prohibit any reasonable implementation of a tool-tip motion measurement. It is proposed that the measured force normal to the face of the workpiece can be filtered through an appropriate admittance transfer function to result in the estimated dapth of cut. This can be compared to the desired depth of cut to generate the adjustment control action in additn to position feedback control. In this work, the design methodology on the admittance model-based control with a conventional controller is presented. The recursive least-squares algorithm with forgetting factor is proposed to identify the parameters and update the cutting process in real time. The normal cutting forces are measured to identify the cutting dynamics in the real diamond turning process using the precision dynamoneter. Based on the parameter estimation of cutting dynamics and the admitance model-based nanodynamic control scheme, simulation results are shown.
