With the development of BCI devices, it is now possible to use EEG control technology to move the robot's arms or legs to help with daily life. In this paper, we propose a customized vehicle control model based on BCI. This is a model that collects BCI-based driver EEG signals, determines information according to EEG signal analysis, and then controls the direction of the vehicle based on the determinated information through EEG signal analysis. In this case, in the process of analyzing noisy EEG signals, controlling direction is supplemented by using a camera-based eye tracking method to increase the accuracy of recognized direction . By synthesizing the EEG signal that recognized the direction to be controlled and the result of eye tracking, the vehicle was controlled in five directions: left turn, right turn, forward, backward, and stop. In experimental result, the accuracy of direction recognition of our proposed model is about 75% or higher.

In this paper, a tracking bias compensation method is proposed for future global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs). It is observed that the correlation function of a GNSS signal has many peaks and remains almost unchanged in the advanced offset region as a result of the multipath signals arriving at the receiver later than a line-of-sight signal. Based on these observations, we use the slopes in the advanced offset region to compensate for the code tracking bias, and obtain the maximum code tracking bias, which is essential to implement the proposed scheme, in static multipath environments. Finally, it is demonstrated that the proposed compensation method is very effective for the GNSS signal tracking in terms of the code tracking biases and their running averages.

This paper contains the signal receiving algorithm for Galileo E5 AltBOC signal and the development of Galileo E5 signal receiving software. The software runs the process from signal acquisition to extracting measurement data to get navigation solution. It uses logged IF data file as an input. In signal acquisition stage, 1ms and delayed 1ms data are used for reducing correlation ross from secondary code and navigation bit conversion. Signal tracking stage is made of two stages which are coarse tracking and fine tracking. It is for taking advantage of AltBOC characteristic and resolving ambiguity problem due to BOC modulation. The functions of software are verified by signal processing using logged IF data from commercial GNSS simulator.

Multipath is an inevitable error source in radio navigation system such as GPS, it causes signal tracking errors such as carrier tracking errors, code tracking errors. Since code tracking error is a dominant error in absolute positioning, this paper focuses on the improvement of code tracking performance. This paper proposes a method that detects the change of autocorrelation function's slope and mitigates the multipath error. Also, this paper shows the performance evaluation results by post-processing the digitized RF samples.

This paper describes detection and tracking of a moving object for unmanned visual surveillance. security systems. Using images obtained from camera it detects and tracks a moving object and displays bounding box enclosing the moving object. The algorithm for detection and tracking is tested using a personal computer, and then implemented on EMPOS II embedded system. Simulation results show that the tracking of a moving object based on embedded system is working well. However it needs to improve image acquisition time for real time implementation to apply security systems.

An intelligent accurate sun tracking controller for solar lighting system was developed. This controller can detect the faulty sensor and correct the error signal based on Principle Component Analysis theory. A fuzzy controller was developed to control the tracker by using the collected sensor signal for precise position control. Also a multiple range searching sensor module for sun tracking was designed. To show the validity of the developed system, some experiments in the field were illustrated.

In this paper, neural network force tracking control is proposed. The conventional impedance function is reformulated to have direct farce tracking capability. Neural network is used to compensate for all the uncertainties such as unknown robot dynamics, unknown environment stiffness, and unknown environment position. On line training signal of farce error for neural network is formulated. A large x-y table is built as a test-bed and neural network loaming algorithm is implemented on a DSP board mounted in a PC. Experimental studies of farce tracking on unknown environment for x-y table robot are presented to confirm the performance of the proposed technique.

Nowadays, the tracking technology of Quadrant Detector will become actual by new micro devices. Based on the past filed data of the reception experiment with COMETS satellite, we have studied on new device (AD8302, phase difference detector) was acquired and suspect its abilities. In 1998, we have developed a Quadrant Detector for mobile to track a weak signal from satellite on Ka band of COMETS. The Quadrant Detector is comprised of four dedicated feed components for reception under an environment of Nakagami - Rician fading, and one transmission and reception feed component. We were successful in receiving a 23 GHz beacon signal from ICE transponder of the COMETS and succeeded in tracking the satellite from a moving vehicle at speeds of approximately 10 ~ 20 Km/h on paved roads. In 2018, with new device AD8302, we have verified new QD system and performed a simulation, based on the past filed experiment. This new device shall be improving the tracking abilities from mobile body on the earth to the multimedia satellite.

Accurate and reliable tracking of train is essential for the train control system. The fixed block system which utilizes track circuit has been used widely for the detection of train position. As an alternative, the moving block system has the advantage over the fixed block system since it enables shorter headway and easier maintenance. This paper presents a new technique for the train tracking system which uses radio signal for the train position detection. The proposed algorithm uses the phase difference of arrival of radio signal for the detection of train position. Experimental verification of the algorithm is presented in the paper.

This paper presents a novel filtering method for speed measurements to improve the low-speed performance of the direct-drive permanent magnet traction machines for elevators. Based on the theory of nonlinear tracking differentiator (NTD), this method, which can act as a high performance filter of a raw speed signal, obtains a more accurate speed feedback signal when applying a low-resolution encoder. In addition, it can relieve the interference caused by the position derivative for speed sampling. By analyzing the frequency response of the NTD, the influence of its parameters on the performance of the speed filtering is investigated. Compared with different types of low-pass filters, the proposed method shows a shorter time delay and a stronger ability in terms of noise suppression when the parameters are selected carefully. In addition, when using the measured speed signal through a nonlinear tracking differentiator as the feedback of the system, the motor runs more steadily at low speeds. As a result, the riding comfort of a direct-drive elevator can be improved. The feasibility of the proposed strategy was verified on an 11.7kW elevator traction machine using a commercial inverter.
