In this paper, the nonlinear damping force model is made to identify the properties of the ER damper using higher order spectrum. The higher order spectral analysis is used to investigate the nonlinear frequency coupling phenomena with the damping force signal according to the sinusoidal excitation of the damper. Also, this paper presents an inverse model of the ER damper, i.e., the model can predict the required voltage so that the ER damper can produce the desired force for the requirement of vibration control of vehicle suspension systems. The inverse model has been constructed by using piecewise linear damping force model. In this paper, the fuzzy logic control based on heuristic knowledge is combined with the skyhook control. And it is simulated for a quarter car model. The acceleration of the sprung mass is included in the premise part of the fuzzy rules to reduce the vertical acceleration RMS value of the sprung mass. Then scaling factors and membership functions are tuned using genetic algorithm to obtain optimal performance.

Ramp metering is one of the most efficient and widely used control methods for an intelligent transportation management system on a freeway. Its objective is to control and upgrade freeway traffic by regulating the number of vehicles entering the freeway entrance ramp, in such a way that not only the alleviation of the congestion but also the smoothing of the traffic flow around the desired density level can be achieved for the maintenance of the maximum mainline throughput. When the cycle of the signal detection is larger than that of the system process, the density tracking problem needs to be considered in the form of the discrete-time system. Therefore, a discrete-time sliding mode control method is proposed for the ramp metering problem in the presence of both input constraint in the on-ramp and exogenous disturbance in the off-ramp considering the random behavior of the driver. Simulations were performed using a validated second-order macroscopic traffic flow model in Matlab environment and the simulation results indicate that proposed control method can achieve better performance than previously well-known ALINEA strategy in the sense that mainstream flow throughput is maximized and congestion is alleviated even in the presence of input constraint and exogenous disturbance.

본 논문에서는 교정 제어에 의한 스위칭 비동기 순차 머신의 모델 정합 문제를 다룬다. 스위칭 비동기 순차 머신은 스위칭 신호에 따라서 여러 개의 비동기 순차 머신 특성을 번갈아 가면서 가지는 시스템이라고 정의한다. 이번 연구에서 스위칭 시스템이 가질 수 있는 스위칭 시퀀스(sequence)는 일정하게 고정되어 있다고 가정한다. 제어 목적은 폐루프 시스템의 안정 상태 동작을 주어진 기준 모델과 일치시키는 교정 제어기의 존재조건을 규명하고 제어기를 설계하는 일이다. 이를 위해서 스위칭 비동기 머신이 가지는 도달가능성을 표현하는 새로운 skeleton 행렬을 도입하고 모델 정합 교정 제어기의 존재조건을 기술한다. 또한 사례 연구를 통해 스위칭 신호를 생성하면서 동시에 교정 제어 입력을 변화시키는 새로운 교정 제어 알고리듬을 예시한다.

Most of life thing including human being have tendency of reaction with inherently their own pattern against environmental change caused by such as light, sound, smell etc. Especially, a sense of direction often works as a very important factor in such reaction. Actually, human or animal lift that can react instantly to a stimulus determine their action with a sense of direction to a stimulant. In this paper, we try to propose how to give a sense of direction to a robot using sound being representative stimulant, and tracking sensors being able to detect the direction of such sound source. We also try to propose how to determine the relative directions among devices or robots using the digital compass and the RSSI on wireless network.

In this paper, we propose a humanoid active audition system which detects the direction of sound and performs speech recognition using just three microphones. Compared with previous researches, this system comprises simpler algorithm and better amplifier system having advantages to increase a detectible distance of sound signal in spite of simple circuit. In order to verify our system's performance, we install the proposed active audition system to the home service robot, called Hombot II, which has been developed at the KIST (Korea Institute of Science and Technology), thus we confirm excellent performance by experimental results

This paper presents a new approach to the design of neural control system using digital signal processors in order to improve the precision and robustness. Robotic manipulators have become increasingly important in the field of flexible automation. High speed and high-precision trajectory tracking are indispensable capabilities for their versatile application. The need to meet demanding control requirement in increasingly complex dynamical control systems under significant uncertainties, leads toward design of intelligent manipulation robots. The TMS320C31 is used in implementing real time neural control to provide an enhanced motion control for robotic manipulators. In this control scheme, the networks introduced are neural nets with dynamic neurons, whose dynamics are distributed over all the network nodes. The nets are trained by the distributed dynamic back propagation algorithm. The proposed neural network control scheme is simple in structure, fast in computation, and suitable for implementation of real-time control. Performance of the neural controller is illustrated by simulation and experimental results for a SCARA robot.

RT/IMPOST는 실시간 내부미터링 제어를 위하여 과포화 간선 축을 대상으로 실시간으로 수집되는 검지기 정보를 이용하여 대기행렬길이를 예측하고 이를 기반으로 상/하류부 녹색시간의 제어를 통하여 각 링크의 유출입 교통량을 조절하여 각 링크의 대기길이를 조절한다. 본 연구에서는 국내 실시간신호제어시스템인 COSMOS의 환경에 내부미터링 제어를 구현하기 위한 방안을 통신환경 및 제어시점을 중심으로 검토하였다. 이를 위하여 현재 정의된 COSMOS 통신환경을 분석하였고, RT/IMPOST 모형의 통신 시점 및 제어절차에 대한 평가를 통하여 실제적으로 적용 가능한 대안을 제시하였고 이를 시뮬레이션 평가를 통하여 검증하였다. 평가 결과, 두 가지 방법이 유사한 결과를 제시하여, 본 연구에서 제시한 방안이 현실적으로 적용 가능한 방안이 될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 내부미터링을 실시간으로 적용하기 위하여는 보다 많은 분야에 대한 연구가 필요한 바, 향후 이에 대한 관심이 요구된다

This paper introduces a resistance scanning-type flexible tactile sensor for intelligent robots and presents the output characteristics of the sensor via signal processing. The sensor was produced via the lamination method using multi-walled carbon nanotubes (a conductive material), an insulator, and Tango-plus (an elastic material). Analog and digital signal processing boards were produced to analyze the output signal of the sensor. The analog signal processing board was made up of an integrator and an amplifier for signal stability, and the digital signal processing board was made up of an IIR filter for noise removal. Finally, the sensor output for the contact force was confirmed through experiments.

We have developed biological signal measurement modules and data acquisition and control card for a biological signal measurement, archiving, and communication system (SiMACS). Biological signals included in this system are ECG, EEG, EMG, invasive blood pressure, respiration, and temperature. Parameters of each module can be controlled by PC-base IDPU (intelligent data processing unit) through a data acquisition and control card. The data acquisition and control card can collect up to 16 channels of biological signals with sampling rate of $50\;{\sim}\;2,000Hz$ and 12-bit resolution. All measurement moduls and data acquisition functions are controlled by microcontroller which receives commands from PC. All data transfers among PC, microcontroller, and ADC are done through a shared RAM access by polling method for real rime operation.
