This paper deals with model reference adaptive system (MRAS) speed estimators based on a secondary flux for linear induction motors (LIMs). The operation of these estimators significantly depends on an adaptation mechanism. Fixed-gain PI controller is the most common adaptation mechanism that may fail to estimate the speed correctly in different conditions, such as variation in machine parameters and noisy environment. Two adaptation mechanisms are proposed to improve LIM drive system performance, particularly at very low speed. The first adaptation mechanism is based on fuzzy theory, and the second is obtained from an LIM mechanical model. Compared with a conventional PI controller, the proposed adaptation mechanisms have low sensitivity to both variations of machine parameters and noise. The optimum parameters of adaptation mechanisms are tuned using an offline method through chaotic optimization algorithm (COA) because no design criterion is given to provide these values. The efficiency of MRAS speed estimator is validated by both numerical simulation and real-time hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) implementations. Results indicate that the proposed adaptation mechanisms improve performance of MRAS speed estimator.

Unmanned underwater vehicles have many applications in scientific, military, and commercial areas because of their autonomy. In many cases, an underwater vehicle adopts a control algorithm based on a tactical inertial sensor for precise control. However, a control algorithm that uses a tactical inertial sensor is unsuitable for some underwater vehicle missions such as torpedo decoys. This paper proposes a control algorithm for an unmanned underwater vehicle that does not require precise control. The control algorithm proposed for an unmanned underwater vehicle adopts a low cost MEMS inertial sensor, and simulations using the specifications of the MEMS inertial sensor under development are performed to verify the control algorithm under a real environment. The results of these simulations are presented.

현재 4차 산업 혁명은 다른 혁명처럼 인류에게 커다란 변화와 새로운 삶을 가져다주고 있으며, 특히 빅데이터, 인공지능, ICT 등 다양한 기술들을 합쳐 응용할 수 있는 드론에 대한 수요와 활용도가 증가하고 있다. 최근에는 러시아-우크라이나 전쟁, 북한의 대남 정찰 등 위험한 군사 작전 및 임무를 수행하는 데 많이 사용되고 있으며 드론에 대한 수요와 활용도가 높아짐에 따라 드론의 안전성과 보안에 대한 우려가 커지고 있다. 현재 드론에 관련된 무선 통신 이상 탐지, 센서 데이터 이상 탐지 등 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있지만, 무선 주파수 특성 데이터를 사용하여 위협을 실시간으로 탐지하는 연구는 미비하다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 실제 환경과 유사한 HITL(Hardware In The Loop) 시뮬레이션 환경에서 드론이 미션을 수행하는 동안 지상 제어 시스템과 통신하면서 발생하는 무선 주파수 신호 특성 데이터를 수집하여 특성 데이터가 정상 신호 데이터인지 비정상 신호 데이터인지 판단하는 연구를 진행하였다. 또한, 드론이 미션을 수행하는 중 실시간으로 위협 신호를 탐지할 수 있는 비지도 학습 기반의 위협 탐지 시스템 및 최적의 임계값을 제안한다.

Flexibility in the power control of ultrasonic transducers has remained a challenge for cleaning applications. This paper introduces a modification of the existing piezoelectric ceramic transducer (PCT) circuit to increase the range of operation through its impedance characteristics. The output power is controlled using the asymmetrical voltage-cancellation (AVC) method. Together with a phase-locked loop control, the switching frequency of the inverter is automatically adjusted to maintain a lagging phase angle under load-parameter variations during the cleaning process. With the proposed modification, the region of the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) operation is extended, which results in a wider range of output power control. A hardware prototype is constructed and the control algorithm is implemented using an STM32F4 microcontroller. Simulation and experimental results are provided to verify the proposed method for a 50-W PCT. The operating frequency and output power ranges under study are 37 - 41 kHz and 15.8 - 50 W, respectively.

Lane keeping assistant system (LKAS) could save thousands of lives each year by maintaining lane position and is regarded as a promising active safety system. The LKAS is expected to reduce the driver workload and to assist the driver during driving. This paper proposes a model based predictive controller for the LKAS which requires cooperative driving between the driver and the assistance system. A Hardware-In-the-Loop-Simulator (HILS) is constructed for its evaluation and includes Carsim, Matlab Simulink and a lane detection algorithm. The single camera is mounted with the HILS to acquire the monitor images and to detect the lane markers. The simulation is conducted to validate the LKAS control performance in various road scenario.

According to government policy, renewable energy facility such as solar power generation is being implemented for newly constructed buildings. In recent years, the introduction of Energy Storage System (ESS) served as an emergency power for replacing an existing diesel generator has been increasing. Furthermore, in order to expand the efficacy of the ESS operation, operation in combination with renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power generation is increasing. Hence, development of the ESS operation algorithms for emergency mode as well as the peak power cut mode, which is the essential feature of ESS, are necessary. The operational scenarios of ESS need to consider load power requirement and the amount of the power generation by renewable energy sources. For the verification of the developed scenarios, tests under the actual situation are demanded, but there is a difficulty in simulating the emergency operation situation such as system failure in the actual site. Therefore, this paper proposes simulation models for the HILS(Hardware In the Loop Simulation) and operation modes developed through HILS for the ESS operated with renewable energy source under peak power reduction and emergency modes. The paper shows that the ESS operation scenarios developed through HILS work properly at the actual site, and it verifies the effectiveness of the control logic developed by the HILS.

To analyze the applications of all types of mechanical systems, general purpose analysis programs have been developed and commercialized. However, it is customary to develop and use customized programs even though they sometimes require more work than a general purpose program. A customized program is simplified to adapt to a particular application from the beginning, is designed for small computers, and developed with hardware-in-the-loop in mind so it can be applied effectively. By adding design knowledge and bundling know-how to an analysis program, analysis time can be reduced. And because an analysis has to work in conjunction with other analysis programs, a proprietary program that the user can easily modify can be useful. In this thesis, a multi-body dynamics analysis system is presented using one of the most useful programming techniques, object-oriented concept. The object-oriented concept defines a problem from the physical world as an abstract object, an abstract model. The object becomes encapsulated with the data and method. Simulation is performed using the object's interface. It is then possible for the user and the developer to modify and upgrade the program without having particular knowledge of the analysis program. The method presented in this thesis has the following advantages. Since the mechanical components of the multi-body system converts independent modeling into a class, the modification, exchange, distribution, and reuse of elements are increased. It becomes easier to employ a new analysis method and interface with other S/W and H/W systems. To employ a new analysis method, there is no need to modify elements of the main solver and the Library. In addition, information can be communicated to each object through messaging. It makes the modeling of new elements easier using inheritance. When developing a S/W for the computer simulation of physical system, it is reasonable to use object-oriented modeling. Also, for multi-body dynamics analysis, it is possible to develop a solver that is user-oriented.
