In this paper, we develop a gesture-based input device equipped with accelerometers and gyroscopes. The sensors measure the inertial measurements, i.e., accelerations and angular velocities produced by the movement of the system when a user is inputting gestures on a plane surface or in a 3D space. The gyroscope measurements are integrated to give orientation of the device and consequently used to compensate the accelerations. The compensated accelerations are doubly integrated to yield the position of the device. With this approach, a user's gesture input trajectories can be recovered without any external sensors. Three versions of motion tracking algorithms are provided to cope with wide spectrum of applications. Then, a Bayesian network based recognition system processes the recovered trajectories to identify the gesture class. Experimental results convincingly show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed gesture input device. In order to show practical use of the proposed input method, we implemented a prototype system, which is a gesture-based remote controller (Magic Wand).

Optimal efficiency control of synchronous reluctance motor(SynRM) is very important in the sense of energy saving and conservation of natural environment because the efficiency of the SynRM is generally lower than that of other types of AC motors. This paper is proposed a novel efficiency optimization control of SynRM considering iron loss using multi adaptive fuzzy learning controller(AFLC). The optimal current ratio between torque current and exciting current is analytically derived to drive SynRM at maximum efficiency. This paper is proposed an efficiency optimization control for the SynRM which minimizes the copper and iron losses. There exists a variety of combinations of d and q-axis current which provide a specific motor torque. The objective of the efficiency optimization control is to seek a combination of d and q-axis current components, which provides minimum losses at a certain operating point in steady state. The control performance of the proposed controller is evaluated by analysis for various operating conditions. Analysis results are presented to show the validity of the proposed algorithm.

In recent years, as the network traffic in the WSN(Wireless Sensor Network) has been increased by the growing number of IoT wireless devices, SDWSN(Software-Defined Wireless Sensor Network) and its security that aims a secure SDN(Software-Defined Networking) for efficiently managing network resources in WSN have received much attention. In this paper, we study on how to efficiently and securely design a PUF(Physical Unclonable Function)-assisted group key distribution scheme for the SDWSN environment. Recently, Huang et al. have designed a group key distribution scheme using the strengths of SDN and the physical security features of PUF. However, we observe that Huang et al.'s scheme has weak points that it does not only lack of authentication for the auxiliary controller but also it maintains the redundant synchronization information. In this paper, we securely design an authentication process of the auxiliary controller and improve the vulnerabilities of Huang et al.'s scheme by adding counter strings and random information but deleting the redundant synchronization information.

Wind energy conversion systems (WECS) which consist of wind turbines with permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) and full-power converters have become widespread in the field of renewable power systems. Generally, conventional diode bridge rectifiers have used to obtain a constant DC bus voltage from output of PMSG based wind generator. In recent years, together advanced power electronics technology, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) rectifiers have used in WECS. PWM rectifiers are used in many applications thanks to their characteristics such as high power factor and low harmonic distortion. In general, L, LC and LCL-type filter configurations are used in these rectifiers. These filter configurations are not exactly compensate current and voltage harmonics. This study proposes a hybrid passive filter configuration for PWM rectifiers instead of existing filters. The performance of hybrid passive filter was tested via MATLAB/Simulink environment under various operational conditions and was compared with LCL filter structure. In addition, neuro-fuzzy controller (NFC) was preferred to increase the performance of PWM rectifier in DC bus voltage control against disturbances because of its robust and nonlinear structure. The study demonstrates that the hybrid passive filter configuration proposed in this study successfully compensates current and voltage harmonics, and improves total harmonic distortion and true power factor.

This paper presents a new approach to obstacle avoidance for mobile robot in unknown or partially unknown environments. The method combines two navigation subsystems: low level and high level. The low level subsystem takes part in the control of linear, angular velocities using a multivariable PI controller, and the nonlinear position control. The high level subsystem uses ultrasonic and IR sensors to detect the unknown obstacle include static and dynamic obstacle. This approach provides both obstacle avoidance and target-following behaviors and uses only the local information for decision making for the next action. Also, we propose a new algorithm for the identification and solution of the local minima situation during the robot's traversal using the set of fuzzy rules. The system has been successfully demonstrated by simulations and experiments.

Robust voice recognition (RVR) is essential for a robot to communicate with people. One of the main problems with RVR for robots is that robots inevitably real environment noises. The noise is captured with strong power by the microphones, because the noise sources are closed to the microphones. The signal-to-noise ratio of input voice becomes quite low. However, it is possible to estimate the noise by using information on the robot's own motions and postures, because a type of motion/gesture produces almost the same pattern of noise every time it is performed. In this paper, we propose an RVR system which can robustly recognize voice by adults and children in noisy environments. We evaluate the RVR system in a communication robot placed in a real noisy environment. Voice is captured using a wireless microphone. Navigation Strategy is shown Obstacle detection and local map, Design of Goal-seeking Behavior and Avoidance Behavior, Fuzzy Decision Maker and Lower level controller. The final hypothesis is selected based on posterior probability. We then select the task in the motion task library. In the motion control, we also integrate the obstacle avoidance control using ultrasonic sensors. Those are powerful for detecting obstacle with simple algorithm.

As commonly known, sensor errors and faulty signals may potentially lead structures in vibration to catastrophic failures. This paper presents a new approach to deal with sensor errors/faults in vibration control of structures by using the Fault detection and isolation (FDI) technique. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach, a space truss structure with semi-active devices such as Magneto-Rheological (MR) damper is used as an example. To address the problem, a Linear Matrix Inequality (LMI) based fixed-order $H_{\infty}$ FDI filter is introduced and designed. Modeling errors are treated as uncertainties in the FDI filter design to verify the robustness of the proposed FDI filter. Furthermore, an innovative Fuzzy Fault Tolerant Controller (FFTC) has been developed for this space truss structure model to preserve the pre-specified performance in the presence of sensor errors or faults. Simulation results have demonstrated that the proposed FDI filter is capable of detecting and isolating sensor errors/faults and actuator faults e.g., accelerometers and MR dampers, and the proposed FFTC can maintain the structural vibration suppression in faulty conditions.

본 논문에서는 3상 유도전동기의 속도를 제어하는데 기존 제어기의 문제점을 해결하고 최적화하기 위해서 유전자 알고리즘을 이용한 하이브리드 퍼지 -PID(HFPID) 제어기를 고안하고, 이에 대한 파라미터 설정 방법을 제안한다. 유도전동기의 제어는 지연시간이 길고, 비선형성이 강하며, 부하변동이 잦은 프로세스이기 때문에, 기존의 제어방식으로는 만족할만한 결과를 얻을 수 없다. 제안한 하이브리드 퍼지-PID 제어기는 PID 제어기의 장점인 과도기의 우수성과 퍼지 제어기의 장점인 정상기의 우수성을 퍼지 변수로 결합시켜 설계한다. 이 제어기에 유전자 알고리즘을 적용하여 최적의 퍼지 및 PID 파라미터를 설정하다. 그리고 이 제어기를 3상 유도전동기의 속도 제어에 응용한다. 또한 속도오차에 대한 룩업 표를 만들어 온라인 실시간 제어를 가능하게 한다. 이상의 과정을 3상 유도전동기에서 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 비교해 볼 때, 하이브리드 퍼지-PID 제어기는 기존의 제어기 보다 전동기의 속도 및 토크성분 전류 둥의 특성에서 우수한 성능을 보였다.

Today, the research related to the robot is achieved in various part. With the high interest in means of transport, various researches about autonomous mobile robot and next generation transport is continuing. The unicycle robot among these needs much control technique like balance control model and driving model. For autonomous driving of this unicycle robot, from the basic balance control to direction switching control and velocity control are needed. But the environment elements like a gradient and frictional force or unbalanced elements from the structural feature. The unicycle needs the real time balance control so more complex, harder to control. And when functional addition is made, the problem that fall entire reaction velocity or accuracy would be happen. This paper introduces entire dynamics modeling of the unicycle robot and reduced model. And propose the new balance control algorithm using fuzzy controller. Also the evaluation about performance would be made through the test.
