본 논문은 EPS(전자식 파워 스티어링)에 사용되는 Torque and Angle sensor 의 절대각 신뢰성 보증 방식에 관한 것으로, Inductive 방식의 센서에서 절대각 신호 신뢰성 보증에 대한 효과적인 방법을 제시한다. 전동식 파워 스티어링 시스템의 ECU(전자제어유닛)는 조타각도를 출력하는 2 개의 소자에서 버니어 알고리즘을 통해 360 도 이상의 멀티 조타각을 인식하게 된다. 토크&조향각 센서는 절대 조향각을 계산하는 1 개의 Hall IC 소자 신호와, 상대 조향각을 계산하는 ASIC 소자 신호를 사용하여 멀티 조타각을 인식한다. 인식된 조타각이 추가적인 검증 절차 없이 제어에 사용된다면, 센서의 이상 발생 시에 운전자의 조타감을 불편해질 수 있고, 나아가서는 차량사고의 위험을 발생시킬 수 있다.따라서 차량 거동 시 절대 조향각의 신뢰성 검증은 제어와 동시에 항상 요구되어야 한다. 특히, 유럽/미국 업계의 ISO 26262 표준 도입에 따라 절대 조향각의 높은 신뢰성이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 요구사항을 만족하기 위해 측정된 절대각 신호를 기준으로 상대각 신호 2 개를 측정에 사용하고, Driving 시에도 절대각 기준의 신뢰도 향상을 위해 절대각 신호 1 개를 비교기로 사용한다. 최적화된 에러 기준을 근거로 절대 조향각 신호의 신뢰성을 보장하는 방법을 제안한다. 이러한 방법을 적용한다면, 정확하고 안정적으로 조타각을 결정함으로써 EPS 안전성 확보에 도움을 줄 수 있다.

The objective of this study is to introduce the new possibility of sensing technology based on inductive displacement sensors to monitor the status of wheel position in the hot forging process. In order to validate effectiveness of proposed sensing technology, the indirect forging force measurement with displacement sensor was applied into a typical closed hot forging die-set used for the manufacturing of flange bolts. The locations to implement the displacement sensor were selected carefully by simulating forming process and static structural. From the measurement results of the forging force change during one hot forging cycle, it was found that the proposed monitoring system can provide useful information to understand the detailed behaviors of die-set in the closed hot forging process.

Most of the motorcycle engines have used carburetors in the fuel system, because of its simple structure and reliability but the fuel economy and the emissions of those engines are bad when we compared with automobile engines .To meet with the tighten emission regulations and the higher requirements for fuel economy, the application of the carburetor on the motorcycle engines would be limited. Therefore, it is important to develope a ECU control system for motorcycle engines. Since the fuel injection system is expensive, it is necessary to decrease the cost of ECU system for motorcycle engines, but the accuracy of the ECU control system should be increased as high as possible. In this paper, we studied about the AFS characteristics of motorcycle engine controled by indirect method.

Optimization method for the open loop commutation time intervals in HDD spindle start-up control is presented in this paper. A hard disk drive(HDD) uses a sensorless brushless DC motor(BLDC) for the platter rotation. Because there is no direct sensor for the rotor position, open loop commutations after sensing the rotor position at a standstill using inductive sensing method are performed to speed up the rotor up to a certain speed where the zero crossings of the back electromotive force(EMF) are measurable. Therefore successful open loop commutations are necessary for the stable start-up control of the spindle motors. Random neighborhood search(RNS) algorithm is introduced as a optimization technic in this paper. Rotor speed and its standard deviation are used as a cost function and commutation intervals obtained from the spindle motion equation are used as initial parameter values for the RNS. With the help of the proposed method optimized open loop commutation time intervals for the very low start-up current are acquired and tested. The experimental results shows that the proposed method can decrease the start-up failure rate of a HDD spindle motor.

The most typical fuel control devices of motorcycle engines have carburetors, they are simple in structure and reliable in work. Most of the motorcycle engines have used carburetors in the fuel system, but the fuel economy and the emissions of those engines are bad when we compared with automobile engines. According to stricter emission regulations and higher requirements for fuel economy, the application of the carburetor on the motorcycle engines would be limited. In this paper, we studied about the ECU of motorcycle engine controled by indirect method. A new engine system was designed and experiments were carried out. The experimental results for both carburetor type and ECU type were compared. Maximum torque of $1.053kg{\cdot}m$ at 6500rpm was measured. The engine torque controled using ECU was increased by $10\%$ compared with the carburetor type.
