This study assessed the degradation of image quality caused by grid artifacts and $moir{\acute{e}}$ pattern artifacts in a stationary grid, and the degradation of image quality caused by cut off artifacts in a moving grid. X-ray images were acquired in a stationary grid and a moving grid with X-ray exposure conditions of 100 cm, 80 kVp, and 30 mA using a CDRAD phantom and a 24 cm thickness acrylic phantom. Observer's perception of X-ray imaging using CDRAD Analyzer was mean 49.36, standard deviation 3.76, maximum 55.56, and minimum 38.67 in the stationary grid, and 47.04, 12.69, 55.56, and 20.89, respectively, in the moving grid. The stationary grid was superior to the moving grid in terms of the mean and standard deviation of observer's perception.

A new control method for precision robust speed control of a PMSM(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) using load torque observer is presented. With this system we can obtain more reliable eye moving singal(nystagmus) Until now rotating chair system which is called 2D-optokinetic stimulator is used to make dizzincess. However an inclined rotating chair system witch is 3D-optokinetic stimulator is needed to obtain the precise dizziness data. This 3D-optokinetic sitimulator include unbalanced load aused by unbalanced center of mass. For this case new compensation method is considered to obtain robust speed control using load torque observer. To reduce the effect of this disturbance we can use dead-beat observer which has high gain. The application of the load torque observer is published in [1] for position control. A problem of using speed information such as amplifying effect of noise is reduce by moving average process. The experimental results are depicted in this paper to show the effect of this proposed algorithm.

This paper proposes the range and velocity of the object estimation method using a moving camera. Structure and motion (SaM) estimation is to estimate the Euclidean geometry of the object as well as the relative motion between the camera and object. Unlike the previous works, the proposed estimation method can relax the camera and object motion constraints. To this end, we arrange the dynamics of moving camera-moving object relative motion model in an appropriate form such that the nonlinear observer can be employed for the SaM estimation. Through both simulations and experiments we have confirmed the validity of the proposed estimation algorithm.

A new control method for precision robust speed control of a PMSM(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) using load torque observer is presented. Using this system, we can more precisely evacuate of vestibular function. Until now a rotating chair system, so called 2D-stimulator, which has vertical rotate axis is used to make dizziness. However, an inclined rotating chair system witch is called 3D-stimulator is needed to obtain the precise dizziness data. This 3D-stimulator include unbalanced load caused by unbalanced center of mass. In this case, new compensation method is considered to obtain robust speed control using load torque observer. To reduce the effect of this disturbance, we can use dead-beat observer that has high gain. The application of the load to torque observer is published in for position control. However, there is a problem of using speed information such as amplifying effect of noise. Therefore, we can reduce a noise effect by moving average process. The experimental results are depicted in this paper to show the effect of this proposed algorithm.

This paper addresses the application of an active magnetic bearing (AMB) system to levitate the elevation axis of an electro-optical sight mounted on a moving vehicle. In this type of system, it is desirable to retain the elevation axis in an air-gap between magnetic bearing stators while the vehicle is moving. To eliminate disturbance responses, a disturbance observer based sliding mode control is developed. This control can decouple disturbance observation dynamics from sliding mode dynamics and preserves the robustness of the sliding control. The sliding surfaces are designed in the consideration of scattering of received image. The proposed control is applied to a 2-DOF active magnetic bearing system subject to base motion. Along with experimental results, the feasibility of the proposed technique is illustrated.

In this paper, a novel RLS-based DOB (Recursive Least Squares Disturbance Observer) scheme is proposed to improve the performance of DOB for nominal model identification. A nominal model can be generally assumed to be a second order system in the form of a proper transfer function of an ARMA (Autoregressive Moving Average) model. The RLS algorithm for the model identification is proposed in association with DOB. Experimental studies of the balancing control of a one-wheel robot are conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method. The performances between the conventional DOB scheme and the proposed scheme are compared.

The purpose of this study is to design a disturbance observer for a micro-stepping stage to eliminate the disturbances from cables, friction, mass unbalance of the moving part, etc. The disturbance observer is designed for air-floating X-Y precision micro-stepping X-Y stage which widely used in stepper machine or semiconductor manufacturing systems. The micro-stepping X-Y stage has a weak point of the variation of characteristics with position locations, which caused by various disturbances. In this study, it will be described that a simple and high throughput disturbance observer algorithm improves the dynamic error and settling time of the micro-stepping stage.

This paper concerns the application and demonstration of sliding mode observer for aeroelastic system, which is robust to model uncertainty including mass and stiffness of the system and various disturbances. The performance of a sliding mode observer is compared with that of a conventional Kalman filter to demonstrate robustness and disturbance decoupling characteristics. Aeroelastic instability may occur when an elastic structure is moving even in subcritical flow speed region. Simulation results using sliding mode observer are presented to control aeroelastic response of flapped wing system due to various external excitations as well as model uncertainty and sinusoidal disturbances in subcritical incompressible flow region.

This paper presents neural load torque observer that is used to deadbeat load torque observer and gain compensation by parameter estimator As a result, the response of the PMSM(permanent magnet synchronous motor) follows that nominal plant. The load torque compensation method is composed of a neural deadbeat observer To reduce the noise effect, the post-filter implemented by MA(moving average) process, is adopted. The parameter compensator with RLSM (recursive least square method) parameter estimator is adopted to increase the performance of the load torque observer and main controller The parameter estimator is combined with a high performance neural load torque observer to resolve the problems. The neural network is trained in on-line phases and it is composed by a feed forward recall and error back-propagation training. During the normal operation, the input-output response is sampled and the weighting value is trained multi-times by error back-propagation method at each sample period to accommodate the possible variations in the parameters or load torque. As a result, the proposed control system has a robust and precise system against the load torque and the Parameter variation. A stability and usefulness are verified by computer simulation and experiment.

Ionic Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC) is an electroactive polymer (EAP) and a promising candidate actuator for various potential applications mainly due to its flexible, low voltage/power requirements, small and compact design, and lack of moving parts. Although widely used in industry, this material requires accurate numerical models and knowledge of optimal control methods. This paper presents State-Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) approach as one of rapidly emerging methodologies for designing nonlinear controllers. Additionally, the present paper describes a novel method of Multi HGO Observer design. In the proposed design, the calculated position of the IPMC strip accurately tracks the target position, which is illustrated by the experiments. Numerical results and comparison with experimental data are presented and the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is verified in experiments.
