The unmanned tandem helicopter, which is a MIMO nonlinear system with complexity and inherent instability, exists in unstable zero dynamics. In this paper, approximate linearization is presented to design the controller for output tracking of an unmanned tandem helicopter based on the dynamic augment method, and the simulation results are encouraging.

A hybrid technique that combines the advantages of binaural reproduction and sound field reproduction technique is proposed. The concept of HRTF-field, which is defined as the set of HRTFs corresponding to the various head dislocations, enables us to realize virtual source imaging over a wide area. Conventional binaural($2{\times}2$) reproduction system is redefined as a MIMO system composed of multiple control sources and multiple head locations, and HRTF variations corresponding to various head movement are quantified. Through the direct control of HRTF-field, reproduction error induced by head dislocation can be minimized in least-square-error sense, and consequential disturbances on the virtual source image can be reduced within a selected area. Simple lateralization examples are investigated, and the reproduction error of the proposed technique is compared to that of higher-order Ambisonics.

MIMO 비최소위상 시스템에 대한 입출력 선형화 제어에 대해서 새로운 접근 방식을 제안한다. 처음에 몇가지 조건 하에서 비선형 궤환과 상태 변환을 하고 또한 magnitude & time scaling을 해서 일반적인 비선형 시스템을 특이 섭동 시스템으로 변환할 수 있다는 것을 보였다. 특히 제안된 방법에 의하여 변환된 특이 섭동 시스템에서 숨겨진 동적 특성이 fast subsystem의 역할을 하게 된다. 그 다음에는 잘 알려진 composite control 기법을 적용하여 시스템이 거의 선형적이고 비간섭적인 I/O 동적 특성을 갖게 하고 내부 상태가 안정화되도록 한다. 기존의 방식 보다 제안된 제어 방법의 가장 큰 이점은 적용될 수 있는 비최소위상 시스템의 범위를 보다 넓히게 되었다는 것이다. 게다가 특이 섭동 방법은 제어기 설계 과정을 단순화시켜 제어기 구현에 있어서 계산 시간을 단축시킨다.

In order to improve the tracking performance of $2{\times}2$ multivariable control systems, a fuzzy control algorithm with feedforward compensator is represented. The method consists in two steps. First, neglecting interconnections. one designs a fuzzy controller to each individual loop. In the second stage, low-order transfer functions of outputs to reference inputs are estimated. We propose a design method of the feed forward compensator based on the transfer functions. An illustrative example are shown.

This paper presents a new analytical approach for designing multiloop PI controllers for disturbance rejection in multivariable processes with time delay. The proposed method is based on IMC-PID design approach. To overcome a sluggish load response by dominant pole in the process, the IMC filter is modified to compensate the dominant pole effect. Based on the modified IMC filter, an analytical tuning rule for multiloop PI controller is driven by extending the generalized IMC-PID method for single input/single output (SISO) systems [1] to multi input/multi output (MIMO) systems. Simulation results show that the proposed method gives a satisfactory load performance as well as servo performance in the multiloop system.

A robot manipulator is a nonlinear time varying MIMO system. Therefore, when a robot manipulator operates at high speeds, the performance of pursuing its trace becomes worse due to the increased nonlinearity of system. Several nonlinear control methods are introduced for solving this problem. But, these methods need a large amount of calculations, so it is necessary to use the controller equipped with a faster and more efficient processing ability. In this paper, we designed the Rhino XR-3 Robot Controller which controls five joints concurrently. To reduce the size of the controller and to control 6 dc-servo motors in real time, we use the TMS320c31, the high-speed digital signal processor.

In this paper, we consider an amplify-and-forward (AF) full duplex (FD) massive-antenna relay (or base station) aiding communication between K single-antenna source and destination pairs whose transmissions are overheard by one single-antenna eavesdropper. Maximum ratio combining (MRC) and maximum ratio transmission (MRT) processing is employed at the relay. The secrecy performance of the system is then derived with both relay and destination being equipped with low resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). The results show the detrimental effect of the eavesdropper's presence on the sum rate of the system.

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are unmanned, underwater vessels that are used to investigate sea environments in the study of oceanography. Docking systems are required to increase the capability of the AUVs, to recharge the batteries, and to transmit data in real time for specific underwater works, such as repented jobs at sea bed. This paper presents a visual :em control system used to dock an AUV into an underwater station. A camera mounted at the now center of the AUV is used to guide the AUV into dock. To create the visual servo control system, this paper derives an optical flow model of a camera, where the projected motions of the image plane are described with the rotational and translational velocities of the AUV. This paper combines the optical flow equation of the camera with the AUVs equation of motion, and deriver a state equation for the visual servo AUV. Further, this paper proposes a discrete-time MIMO controller, minimizing a cost function. The control inputs of the AUV are automatically generated with the projected target position on the CCD plane of the camera and with the AUVs motion. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the modeling and the control law of the visual servo AUV simulations on docking the AUV to a target station are performed with the 6-dof nonlinear equations of REMUS AUV and a CCD camera.

In this paper, the research results for the improvement of tracking performance of a hydraulic shaking table are presented. A servo-hydraulic shaking table is not only highly nonlinear but also has a lot of time delay. In addition, the shaking table, which consists of multi axial hydraulic actuators, is a MIMO system coupled by kinematics and dynamics of each other's actuators. And it is demanded for the shaking table to track arbitrary trajectories up to high frequency even at the extreme situations such as substantial external loads and large disturbances. For this purpose, an iterative feed-forward control based on the inverse of a measured frequency response function is used for the shaking table. To solve the dynamic coupling, a pressure feedback control as numerical damping is used. It is shown through numerical simulations that the tracking performance of shaking table is improved up to 100Hz.

Adaptive output feedback control technique using Neural Networks(NN) is proposed for uncertain nonlinear Multi-Input Multi-Output(MIMO) systems. Modified Dynamic Inversion Model(MDIM) is introduced to decouple uncertain nonlinearities from inversion-based control input. MDIM consists of approximated dynamic inversion model and inversion model error. One NN is applied to compensate the MDIM of the system. The output of the NN augments the tracking controller which is based upon a filtered error approximation with online weight adaptation laws which are derived from Lyapunov's direct method to guarantee tracking performance and ultimate boundedness. Several numerical results are illustrated in the simulation of Van der Pol system and unmanned helicopter with model uncertainties.
