The eccentricity of the rotor causes a rotary machine to unbalance and the balancing to correct or compensate this is very important not only for dust-proof and anti -noise design but also for stabilization and durability of the rotary machine. In this paper, for developing the balancing machine to find and compensate such eccentricity, we will propose new way of measuring eccentricity using hall effect sensor that is different from the way in a conventional balancing machine. And we will show that it is possible to make balancing machine more compactly and cheaply by experiment results using hall effect sensor to measure eccentricity. Moreover we try to control and monitor the balancing machine by personal computer through serial communication.

In this paper, we propose a advanced attitude PID controller and sensor fusion method robust to the vibration of the quadcopter unmanned air vehicle using four BLDC motors. When the gyro sensor and acceleration sensor are fused, a complementary filter is designed to ignore the vibrations generated by the motors and to complement the drawbacks. As a result, we obtain accurate results than using each sensor. Also, it is possible to obtain a low delay results in robust to vibration than the low-pass filter or moving average filter, which is generally used for quadcopter. And we improved D controller, which have being used for attitude control of quadcopter, to quadcopter using gyro sensor. it was confirmed that the attitude is stabilized and error is reduced By using gyro sensor output instead of variation of estimated angle in D control.

The magnetic levitation system is utilized in the magnetic bearing of high-speed rotor system because of little friction, no lubrication, no noise and so on. The magnetic levitation system needs the feedback controller for the stabilization of system, and gap sensors are generally used to measure the gap. The use of sensor easily goes into troublesome caused by sensor failure discord between the measurement point and the control point etc. This paper gives a controller design method of magnetic levitation system which satisfies the given $H_{\infty}$ control performance and the robust stability of the presence of physical parameter perturbations. To the end, we investigated the validity of the designed controller through results of simulation.

A Mach-Zehnder interferometer using single mode optical fiber was constructed which operates in homodyne detection scheme. Its response to air-borne soun pressure was examined experimentally. A signal stabilizer was developed for maintaining optical fiber interferometer in quadrature condition using a cylindrical piezoelectric stretcher. This maintains the optical fiber sensor at a maximum sensitivity in the presence of the phase drift caused by temperature fluctuation and other types of environmental disturbances.

This paper presents the development of a satellite antenna tracking control system using a plane antenna for mobile DAB(Digital Audio Broadcasting) reception. To track more rapidly in the antenna of this system, this simple tracking system only tracks a direction of azimuth using pendulum in the direction of elevation. This system should track using the AGC(Automatic Gain Control) of the signal level which can receive DAB in spite of the changing of point and movement of the mobile. The directional gyro sensor is attached to solve the delay time in the Proposed tracking algorithm. The effectiveness of both the stabilization and tracking algorithm is demonstrated through experiment measuring AGC signal level. The implemented satellite antenna tracking control system is shown to be excellent for mobile DAB reception.

And we investigated both the validity of the designed controller and the usefulness of the sensorless magnetic levitation system through results of actual experiment.

The basic principle and characteristics of a DTG(dynamically tuned gyroscope) are presented in this paper, which is used for the detection of disturbance and for the stabilization of gimbal. An accurate model of the rate mode DTG is proposed. This model has a resonance characteristics which is more similar to the characteristics of practical systems than the conventional 2nd order system model. Therefore, this model is applicable to the general rate mode gyroscope. Some problems at using DTG for a real electro optical tracking system are discussed and a solution is described.

This paper considers a low-order dynamic output feedback controller design problem. Since the proposed control law inherently has a low-pass filter property, it can alleviate the mal-effects of the sensor noise without additional filter designs. Frequency domain analysis shows the characteristics of the proposed control law against measurement noise. The effectiveness of the proposed control law is illustrated by numerical simulations with a rotary inverted pendulum and a convey-crane. Using only one integrator the proposed control law has the advantage to the stabilization problem with sensor noise as well as it can successfully replace the measurements of derivative terms in a state feedback control law.

We developed a fiber-optic Bragg grating sensor system using a SOA fiber laser for over heat detection in power systems. To compensate the nonlinear wavelength tuning of the fiber laser, we used fixed passband wavelengths from Fabry-Perot ITU filter as reference wavelengths. Gaussian line-fitting algorithm was also used to reduce the FBG peak detection error. Compared with a highest-peak-detection and a polynomial-fitting method, the proposed Gaussian fitting algorithm could drastically reduce the measurement errors. Also the SOA fiber laser made it possible to enhance the signal-to-noise-ratio even with several kilometers of lead fiber.

A three axes marine satellite antenna has been developed. As a design step, a CAD model for the antenna has been created according to the design requirements. Kinematic analyses are carried out to insure design specification and to check collision detection of the CAD model. Marine satellite antennas experience base motions, and a relevant control system should control the three antenna axis to point to the satellites accurately. A sensor fusion algorithm and a PIDA (Proportional, Integral, Derivative, Acceleration) control algorithm are designed and implemented to control the yaw, level, and cross-level angle of a small size satellite marine antenna. Antenna stabilization control experiments are performed using a test simulator which gives the antenna base motions. Experimental results show small pointing errors, which is less than 0.2 degree for the level, cross-level, and yaw axis.
