A new filter algorithm is suggested improving structurally the conventional extended Kalman filter of which the performance is dependent on the selection of the reference axes, by use of line-of-sight axes and gain rotation technique. The implementation method using microcomputer which implements tracking Kalman filter is introduced in terms of hardware and software. Then, through the simulation the performance of suggested filter is compared with that of conventional extended Kalman filter and the possibility of the real time tracking of moving target is investigated.

Tracking control of systems with variable stiffness hysteresis using a gain-scheduled (GS) controller is developed in this paper. Variable stiffness hysteretic system is represented as quasi linear parameter dependent system with known bounds on parameters. Assuming that the parameters can be measured or estimated in real-time, a GS controller that ensures the performance and the stability of the closed-loop system over the entire range of parameter variation is designed. The proposed method is implemented on a spring-mass system which consists of a semi-active independently variable stiffness (SAIVS) device that exhibits hysteresis and precisely controllable stiffness change in real-time. The SAIVS system with variable stiffness hysteresis is represented as quasi linear parameter varying (LPV) system with two parameters: linear time-varying stiffness (parameter with slow variation rate) and stiffness of the friction-hysteresis (parameter with high variation rate). The proposed LPV-GS controller can accommodate both slow and fast varying parameter, which was not possible with the controllers proposed in the prior studies. Effectiveness of the proposed controller is demonstrated by comparing the results with a fixed robust $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ controller that assumes the parameter variation as an uncertainty. Superior performance of the LPV-GS over the robust $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ controller is demonstrated for varying stiffness hysteresis of SAIVS device and for different ranges of tracking displacements. The LPV-GS controller is capable of adapting to any parameter changes whereas the $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ controller is effective only when the system parameters are in the vicinity of the nominal plant parameters for which the controller is designed. The robust $\mathcal{H}_{\infty}$ controller becomes unstable under large parameter variations but the LPV-GS will ensure stability and guarantee the desired closed-loop performance.

In optical disc system, tracking actuator is consisted of coarse actuator and fine tracking actuator. This, two-stage actuator, requires many devices and two servos for large stroke and precisional displacement. These complicate configuration increases moving mass. So dynamic characteristics become bad, that is, sensitivity of high frequency gain decrease. In this paper, frequency performance is willing to be better as so one dimensional tracking actuator is designed. In order to investigate the performance of the proposed tracking actuator, the Bode diagram is plotted with Dynamic analyzer and friction characteristic is explained. Finally, tracking error performance is ins investigated into 0.1 .mu.m resolution with MATLAB simulation.

The switched reluctance motor(SRM) has been increasingly used in high-performance servo applications such as electric vehicles, aircraft, and direct-drive robots. The dynamic equations of SRMs are, however, highly nonlinear and this makes it difficult to control SRMs with high performance. In this paper, we propose a new robust current tracking controller for SAMs which can compensate the nonlinear characteristics of SRM(i.e., back-emf and inductance) completely and hence shows perfect tracking performance even with an arbitrary small current control loop gain. Furthermore, even in case that there exist some model uncertainties, our current controller guarantees that the stator currents can track the reference current commands with sufficiently small tracking errors. In order to justify our work, we present the tracking performance analysis and some simulation results.

In this paper, we implement linear-quadratic-Gaussian based vector tracking loop (LQG-VTL) instead of conventional extended Kalman filter based vector tracking loop (EKF-VTL). The LQG-VTL can improve the performance compared to the EKF-VTL by generating optimal control input at a specific performance index. Performance analysis is conducted through two factors, frequency thermal noise and frequency dynamic stress error, which determine total frequency tracking error. We derive the thermal noise and the dynamic stress error formula in the LQG-VTL. From frequency tracking error analysis, we can determine control gain matrix in the LQG controller and show that the frequency tracking error of the LQG-VTL is lower than that of the EKF-VTL in all C/N0 ranges. The simulation results show that the LQG-VTL improves performance by 30% in Doppler tracking, so the LQG-VTL can extend pre-integration time longer and track weaker signals than the EKF-VTL. Therefore, the LQG-VTL algorithm is more robust than the EKF-VTL in weak signal environments.

This paper considers robust stability and transient behavior of the Two - Degree - of - Freedom(2DOF) servosystem. A class of uncertainties allowed in the plant model is obtained, to which the servosystem is robustly stable for any gain of the integral compensator. This result implies that if the plant uncertainty is the allowable set defined by the condition, a high - gain compensation can be carried out preserving stability to achieve a high - speed tracking response. The transient behavior attainable by the limit of the high - gain compensation is calculated using the singular perturbation approach.

An adaptive output feedback controller is designed for tracking control of an n-link robot manipulator with unknown load. High-gain observers with same structure as error dynamic systems are used to estimate joint velocities. The parameter adaptation is achieved by the smoothed projection algorithm. The control inputs are saturated outside a domain of interest. Simulation results on a 2-link manipulator illustrate that when the speed of the high-gain observer is sufficiently high, the proposed controller recovers the performance under state feedback control.

본 논문에서는 이동하는 항공기의 통신장비와 지상 통신장비 간의 무선통신 링크 유지 및 통신신호 추적을 위하여 모노펄스 시스템과 ${\alpha}{\beta}$ 필터가 결합된 통신신호 추적 시스템의 성능향상 방안을 제시한다. 모노펄스 오차각 추적을 위하여 일반적으로 사용되는 모노펄스 기울기 곡선(Monopulse Ratio Curve)에 의한 추적 방식이 아닌 최소거리 연산방식을 제안하며, 통신 신호의 일시적 단절 상황에서 모노펄스 추적 재연결 확률 및 추적 정확도 향상을 위하여 가변 이득 방식의 ${\alpha}{\beta}$ 필터 알고리즘을 제안한다. 프로토타입 안테나로 측정한 MR Curve를 이용하여 제안된 모노펄스 시스템의 성능향상을 확인할 수 있다. 또한, 통신 단절 및 연결 상황에서 항공기 모의궤적을 이용한 모의실험은 고정 이득 방식의 ${\alpha}{\beta}$ 필터 대비 가변 이득 방식의 ${\alpha}{\beta}$ 필터 알고리즘의 성능향상을 보여준다. 본 논문에서 제시한 방식은 기존 통신신호 추적 시스템의 하드웨어에 대한 변경 없이 알고리즘의 변경만으로 가능하기 때문에 최소비용을 통한 성능향상을 기대할 수 있다.

This paper proposes an input-constrained reference tracking control of a converter model. To this end, first it is shown that the bilinear converter model can be equivalently represented by a linear uncertain model belonging to a polytopic set. Then, an input-constrained tracking control scheme for the linear uncertain model is designed based on recently proposed tracking control scheme. The control scheme yields not only a stabilizing control gain but also a feasible and invariant set for the converter model. Finally, simulation results show that the state trajectory always stays in the feasible and invariant set and that the output tracks the given reference while satisfying the input constraint.

This paper proposed a predictive tracking controller for the continuous-time systems by using the receding horizon concept in the optimal tracking control. This controller is the continuous-time version of the previous RHTC (Receding Horizon Tracking Control) for the discrete-time state space models. The problems in implementing the feedforward part of this controller is discussed and a approximate method of implementing this controller is presented. This approximate method utilizes the information of the command signals on the receding horizon and has simple constant feedback and feedforward gain. To perform the offset free control, the integral action is included in the continuous time RHTC. By simulation it is shown that the proposed method gives better performance than the conventional steady state tracking control.
