  • In this paper, an experimental study on the control of the plume deflection panel(PDP) with a support jack of the ground launching platform using a tilt angle sensor is described. To overcome the disadvantages of the existing PDP control without a support jack using a limit sensor, the control algorithm using a tilt angle sensor and the ferroelectric RAM in the Launcher Control Unit for recognizing the contact with the ground in an abnormal operation is proposed to control the PDP in various operation environments. Finally, the proposed algorithm can be well applied for not only heavy-load launching platforms but also any other similar systems.

  • Recently, as the roles and utilization fields of UAV become more diverse, demand for high - level mission has been increasing. To solve this issue, researches on the operation of multiple small UAVs and related systems have been actively carried out. The multiple small UAVs based application system has a problem that the task complexity of control personnel increases because the control personnel must continuously control and manage several small UAVs. Hence, it is necessary to develop a software platform that can perform efficient control in order to employ a multiple small UAVs based application system successfully. In this paper, we propose an effective ground control software platform for application systems using multiple small UAVs. We first analyze the requirements for the software platform, and design and implement software based on the analysis. Simulation using the X-plane flight simulator shows that multiple flight data are effectively displayed and that the image data transmitted from many small UAVs are simultaneously displayed in real time.

  • In this study, a smart isolation platform has been developed for control of microvibration of high-technology facilities, such as semi-conductor plants and TFT-LCD plants. Previously, microvibration control performance of a smart base isolation system has been investigated. This study compared microvibration control performance of a smart isolation platform with that of conventional base isolation and fixed base. For this purpose, train-induced ground acceleration is used for time history analysis. An MR damper was used to compose a smart isolation platform. A fuzzy logic controller was used as a control algorithm and it was optimized by a multi-objective genetic algorithm. Numerical analysis shows that a smart isolation platform can effectively control microvibration of a high-technology facility subjected to train-induced excitation compared with other models.

  • Various convergence technologies discovered through the 4th industrial revolution are permeating the industry. Drones are being used in industries such as construction, transportation, and national defense based on convergence technology. Quart-copter drone control is being used in a wide range of fields from the visual field of operation with the naked eye to the remote field of view using GCS. If we classify those who operate industrial drones, there are general pilots who directly use drones, instructors who train drone pilots, and mechanics who check the status of drones and use them for a long time. Depending on the shape of the screen of the drone GCS, a user's quick response or key data can be acquired. Accordingly, in this study, GUI characteristics were analyzed for the mission planner GCS and a screen composition method according to the user was proposed.

  • A satellite communication (Satcom) antenna mounted on a moving platform provides a controlled heading that enables a geosynchronous satellite to communicate with the ground. A monopulse tracking method is effective for antenna control on a vehicle when it vibrates severely. However, this method has unexpected obstacles and its control performance is insufficient. To improve its control performance, the control command and monopulse error, the signal delay, and the radome effect are evaluated through tests. The authors then propose a method to transform the antenna error from 3D coordinates to 2D antenna coordinates. As a result, the antenna control performance is improved. As indicated in this study, examining antenna systems using the monopulse method on moving platforms is possible by understanding the antenna test process.

  • In order to tackle global environmental problems such as destruction of the ozone layer or climatic changes due to atmospheric temperature increase, the acquisition of plentiful and precise data is necessary. Therefore, a means of conducting long-lasting high-resolution measurements over broad areas is required. A feasibility study has been made on a high altitude (20km), super-pressured helium-filled PLTA (Powered Ligher-than-Air) vehicle as an ideal platform for environmental observation. It has a long service life and carries a larger payload than an artificial satellite. This PLTA platform uses an electric propulsion system to maintain position in space against wind currents. The thruster is driven by solar power acquired from solar cells. For night use, solar energy is stored in regenerative fuel cells. This study focuses on energy balance and structural analysis of the hull and platform. The platform is capable of conducting high resolution remote sensing as well as having the capability to serve as a telecommunications relay. The platform could replace a number of ground-based telecommunications relay facilities, guaranteeing sufficient radio frequency intensity to secure good quality telecommunication transmittal. The altitude at which the platform resides has the lowest wind flow in the lower stratosphere, and permits viewing from the ground within a 1,000km range. Because this altitude is much lower than that required of an artificial satellite, the measuring resolution is a couple of thousand times higher than with artificial satellites. The platform can also be used to chase typhoons and observe them from their sources in tropical regions.

  • Mobile robots are used for years as a valuable research and educational tool in form of available open-platform designs and Do-It-Yourself kits. Rapid development and costs reduction of Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAV) and ground based mobile robots in recent years allowed researchers to utilize them as an affordable research platform. Despite of recent developments in the area of ground and airborne robotics, only few examples of Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) platforms targeted for research purposes can be found. Aim of this paper is to present the development of open-design USV drone with integrated multi-level control hardware architecture. Proposed catamaran - type water surface drone enables direct control over wireless radio link, separate development of algorithms for optimal propulsion control, navigation and communication with the ground-based control station. Whole design is highly modular, where each component can be replaced or modified according to desired task, payload or environmental conditions. Developed USV is planned to be utilized as a part of the system for detection and identification of marine and lake waste. Cameras mounted to the USV would record sea or lake surfaces, and recorded video sequences and images would be processed by state-of-the-art computer vision and machine learning algorithms in order to identify and classify marine and lake waste.
