This paper proposes a method for predicting maximum friction coefficients and optimal slip ratios as optimal control parameters for traction control or slip control of autonomous mobile robots on rough terrain. This paper focuses on strength of ground surface which indicates different characteristics depending on material types on surface. Strength of various material types can be estimated by Willoughby sinkage model and by a developed testbed which can measure forces, velocities, and displacements generated by wheel-terrain interaction. Estimated strength is collaborated on building improved Brixius model with friction-slip data from experiments with the testbed over sand and grass material. Improved Brixius model covers widespread material types in outdoor environments on predicting friction-slip characteristics depending on strength of ground surface. Thus, a prediction model for obtaining optimal control parameters is derived by partial differentiation of the improved Brixius model with respect to slip. This prediction model can be applied to autonomous mobile robots and finally gives secure maneuverability on rough terrain. Proposed method is verified by various experiments under similar conditions with the ones for real outdoor robots.

This study proposes an adaptive control algorithm for lateral motion of a UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle) using an NN (Neural Networks). The lateral motion of the UGV can be corrupted with various uncertainties such as side slip. In order to compensate the performance degradation of the UGV under various uncertainties, an NN-based adaptive control is designed by utilizing a virtual control concept. Since both the drift and input gain terms are uncertain, the proposed method adapts the whole terms related to the difference between the nominal and real systems. To avoid a singularity problem with the adaptive control, the affine property of the UGV dynamic model is utilized and the overall closed-loop stability is analyzed rigorously. Finally, numerical simulations using Carsim are performed to validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

CNS/ATM을 구성하는 감시 시스템의 핵심 기술인 ADS-B는 항공기와 항공기 간의 정보 교환을 통해 기존의 레이더 감시 시스템을 보완 및 대체할 수 있다. ADS-B를 지상 항공 교통 관리 시스템에서 사용할 수 있도록 구축하는 지상 ADS-B 시스템은 항공기와 ADS-B 메시지를 송수신하는 지상장비, ADS-B/TIS-B/FIS-B 서버 등 다양한 장비가 필요하며 이들 장비는 네트워크 기반의 분산 시스템 형태로 구성된다. 따라서 지상 ADS-B 시스템의 분산된 장비들을 효율적으로 관리할 수 있도록 원격에서 지상 ADS-B 시스템을 구성하는 장비들의 상태를 감시하고 제어 할 수 있는 상태 감시 및 원격 제어 시스템이 반드시 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 네트워크 기반 상태 관리 프로토콜인 SNMP를 이용하여 지상 ADS-B 시스템을 구성하는 모든 장비의 상태를 감시하고 제어할 수 있는 ADS-B 시스템 상태 감시 및 원격 제어 시스템을 설계하고 구현하였다.

무인 항공기는 다양한 분야에서 널리 활용되고 있으며, 실시간 경로 재계획은 이들 기기의 안전성과 효율성을 향상하는 핵심 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 RRT*와 LOSPO를 기반으로 한 실시간 경로 재계획 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 먼저 RRT* 알고리즘을 활용하여 초기 경로를 생성하고, LOSPO를 이용하여 경로를 최적화한다. 또한 최적화된 경로를 궤적으로 변경하여 실제 시간과 항공기의 동적한계를 고려할 수 있다. 이 과정에서 환경 변화와 충돌 위험을 실시간으로 감지하고, 필요한 경우 경로를 재계획함으로써 안전한 운행을 유지한다. 이 방법은 시뮬레이션을 통한 실험을 통해 검증되었다. 본 논문의 결과는 무인 항공기의 실시간 경로 재계획에 관한 연구에 중요한 기여할 것으로 기대한다. 또한 이 기법을 다양한 상황에 적용함으로써 무인 항공기의 안전성과 효율성을 향상시킬 수 있다.

The magneto-rheological (MR) damper contributes to the new technology of structural vibration control. Its developments and applications have been paid significant attentions in earthquake engineering in recent years. Due to the shortages, however, inherent in deterministic control schemes where only several observed seismic accelerations are used as the trivial input and in classical stochastic optimal control theory with assumption of white noise process, the derived control policy cannot effectively accommodate the performance of randomly base-excited engineering structures. In this paper, the experimental and analytical studies on stochastic seismic response control of structures with specifically designed MR dampers are carried out. The random ground motion, as the base excitation posing upon the shaking table and the design load used for structural control system, is represented by the physically based stochastic ground motion model. Stochastic response analysis and reliability assessment of the tested structure are performed using the probability density evolution method and the theory of extreme value distribution. It is shown that the seismic response of the controlled structure with MR dampers gain a significant reduction compared with that of the uncontrolled structure, and the structural reliability is obviously strengthened as well.

MSC (Multi-Spectral Camera) system is a remote sensing instrument to obtain high resolution ground image. EOS (Electro-Optic System) for MSC mainly consists of PMA (Primary Mirror Assembly), SMA (Secondary Mirror Assembly), HSTS (High Stability Telescope Structure) and DFPA (Detector Focal Plane Assembly). High performance of EOS makes it possible for MSC system to provide high resolution and high quality ground images. Temperature of the EOS needs to be controlled to be in a specific range in order not to have any thermal distortion which can cause performance degradation. It is controlled by full redundant CPU based electronics. The validity of thermistor readings can be checked because a few thermistors are installed on each control point on EOS. Various kinds of thermal control logics are used to prevent 'Single Point Failure'. Control logic has a few set of database in order not to be corrupted by SEU (Single Event Upset). Even though the thermal control logic is working automatically, it can also be monitored and controlled by ground-station operator. In this paper, various ways of thermal control logic for EOS in MSC will be presented, which include thermal control mode and logic, redundancy design and status monitoring and reporting scheme.

Given the unpredictability of the space environment, satellite communications are manually performed by exchanging telecommands and telemetry. Ground support for orbiting satellites is given only during limited periods of ground antenna visibility, which can result in conflicts when multiple satellites are present. This problem can be regarded as a scheduling problem of allocating antenna support (task) to limited visibility (resource). To mitigate unforeseen errors and costs associated with manual scheduling and mission planning, we propose a novel method based on a genetic algorithm to solve the ground support problem of multiple satellites and antennae with visibility conflicts. Numerous scheduling parameters, including user priority, emergency, profit, contact interval, support time, remaining resource, are considered to provide maximum benefit to users and real applications. The modeling and formulae are developed in accordance with the characteristics of satellite communication. To validate the proposed algorithm, 20 satellites and 3 ground antennae in the Korean peninsula are assumed and modeled using the satellite tool kit (STK). The proposed algorithm is applied to two operation modes: (i) telemetry, tracking, and command and (ii) payload. The results of the present study show near-optimal scheduling in both operation modes and demonstrate the applicability of the proposed algorithm to actual mission control systems.

In this study, the effect of noise and vibration, and influence of ground improvement are evaluated and its application is analyzed through the example of SCP designed at ground improvement in Song-Do international city. consequently, it showes even comfortable result that it is about 5.0m of inner space, when the LVSCP method is applied, rather than that it is about 30m of inner space when the existing SCP is applied in vibration control standards 2.0mm/sec. In the noise, now that the many differences according to environmental factors like other equipment noise, limited space and so on at the time of the construction by LVSCP method are coming out, so we think that appro itate measures are needed according to surroundings. By the way, when it comes to the estimation of the ground improvement work before and after an improvement of LVSCP method, its result shows that it is satisfacttion to all the standards of compaction control in dregded and reclaimed ground and sedimentary clay layer.
