  • A new Kirchhoff approximation(KA) method was proposed for microwave scttering from randomly rough surfaces. Using the spectral representation of delta function and its sifting theorem, a new KA was formulated directly without any further approximation, and this formulated was used to compute exact backscttering coefficients. The validity of the KA was verified by a numerical method, and this new KA technique was used to evaluate the existing approximated KkA methods; i.t., the zeroth-order and the first-order approximated physical optics(PO) models. It was shown that the first-order approximated PO model has small error than the zeroth-order approximated PO model at low incidence angles and the opposite happens at higher incidence angles. This new KA model can be used to compute exact scattering coefficients in the validity regions of KA and to evaluate other theoretical and numerical models for scattering from randomly rough surfaces.

  • Interest is increasing in electrocardiogram (ECG) signal analysis for embedded devices, creating the need to develop an algorithm suitable for a low-power, low-memory embedded device. Linear approximation of the ECG signal facilitates the detection of fiducial points by expressing the signal as a small number of vertices. However, dynamic programming, a global optimization method used for linear approximation, has the disadvantage of high complexity using memoization. In this paper, the calculation area and memory usage are improved using a linear approximated template. The proposed algorithm reduces the calculation area required for dynamic programming through local optimization around the vertices of the template. In addition, it minimizes the storage space required by expressing the time information using the error from the vertices of the template, which is more compact than the time difference between vertices. When the length of the signal is L, the number of vertices is N, and the margin tolerance is M, the spatial complexity improves from O(NL) to O(NM). In our experiment, the linear approximation processing time was 12.45 times faster, from 18.18 ms to 1.46 ms on average, for each beat. The quality distribution of the percentage root mean square difference confirms that the proposed algorithm is a stable approximation.

  • In man cases, the measurement error variances may be functions of the unknown true values or related covariate. In some cases, the measurement error variances increase in proportion to the value of predictor. This paper develops estimators of the parameters of a linear measurement error variance function under stratified multistage random sampling design and additional conditions. Also, this paper evaluates and compares the power of an asymptotically unbiased test with that of an asymptotically biased test. The proposed method are applied to blood sample measurements from the U.S. Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(NHANES III)

  • This paper addresses a method for nonlinear controller construction for a general nonlinear system with the separation of controller construction and manipulated values generation. The nonlinear system model is firstly expressed with the coefficients of state-depended representation. The nonlinear control is designed without any approximation based on the model with state-depended representation. At the stage of controller implementation for the nonlinear system, the manipulated values are calculated accurately by use of an algorithm of the numerical analysis. The numerical error for calculating the manipulated value can be reduced to zero by selecting the sampling interval being a small val...

  • It is well know that the tuning method of Yuwana-Seborg (1982) can not be even applied to the relatively small delay system due to the phase errors from the Pad approximation suh (1984, 85, 86). Jutan and Rodriguez(1984), lee(1989), Chen(1989), Lee and Edgar(1990), etc have been tried to improve it. In this stydy, such recent results and their problems are investigated. A new tuning method by "a frequency scale transformation". which is based on a previous result of Suh(1984). is proposed. It can reduce the magnitude of the phase error significantly.

  • This paper presents intelligent digital redesign method of global approach for hybrid state space fuzzy-model-based controllers. For effectiveness and stabilization of continuous-time uncertain nonlinear systems under discrete-time controller, Takagi-Sugeno(TS) fuzzy model is used to represent the complex system. And global approach design problems viewed as a convex optimization problem that we minimize the error of the norm bounds between nonlinearly interpolated lineal operators to be matched. Also, by using the bilinear and inverse bilinear approximation method, we analyzed nonlinear system's uncertain parts more precisely. When a sampling period is sufficiently small, the conversion of a continuous-time structured uncertain nonlinear system to an equivalent discrete-time system have proper reason. Sufficiently conditions for the global state-matching of the digitally controlled system are formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, a T-S fuzzy model for the chaotic Lorentz system is used as an example to guarantee the stability and effectiveness of the proposed method.

  • A nonlinear control law for the quad-rotor of a low-complexity, global approximation-free from system uncertainties and external disturbances are described in this paper. The control law guarantees convergence to a small bounded error using a prescribed performance function. The stability of the proposed nonlinear control system is also proven by the Lyapunov stability theorem. The advantage of this technique is that it has a simpler form than any other nonlinear compensators and is applicable to any nonlinear systems without precise knowledge of the systems. In this paper, the proposed approach is applied to attitude/altitude control of a quad-rotor. Numerical simulations are performed to investigate the proposed nonlinear attitude control law by applying it to an uncertain quadcopter system with external disturbances.

  • For a probabilistic model with positively skewed data, a lognormal distribution is one of the key distributions that play a critical role. Several lognormal models can be found in various areas, such as medical science, engineering, and finance. In this paper, we propose a new estimator for a lognormal mean and depict the performance of the proposed estimator in terms of the relative mean squared error (RMSE) compared with Shen's estimator (Shen et al., 2006), which is considered the best estimator among the existing methods. The proposed estimator includes a tuning parameter. By finding the optimal value of the tuning parameter, we can improve the average performance of the proposed estimator over the typical range of σ2. The bias reduction of the proposed estimator tends to exceed the increased variance, and it results in a smaller RMSE than Shen's estimator. A numerical study reveals that the proposed estimator has performance comparable with Shen's estimator when σ2 is small and exhibits a meaningful decrease in the RMSE under moderate and large σ2 values.

  • To solve the initial value problem we present a new single-step implicit method based on the Euler method. We prove that the proposed method has convergence order 2. In practice, numerical results of the proposed method for some selected examples show an error tendency similar to the second-order Taylor method. It can also be found that this method is useful for stiff initial value problems, even when a small number of nodes are used. In addition, we extend the proposed method by using weighted averages with a parameter and show that its convergence order becomes 2 for the parameter near $\frac{1}{2}$. Moreover, it can be seen that the extended method with properly selected values of the parameter improves the approximation error more significantly.

  • Recently a few articles have derived robust first-order rotatable and D-optimal designs for the lifetime response having distributions gamma, lognormal, Weibull, exponential assuming errors that are correlated with different correlation structures such as autocorrelated, intra-class, inter-class, tri-diagonal, compound symmetry. Practically, a first-order model is an adequate approximation to the true surface in a small region of the explanatory variables. A second-order model is always appropriate for an unknown region, or if there is any curvature in the system. The current article aims to extend the ideas of these articles for second-order models. Invariant (free of the above four distributions) robust (free of correlation parameter values) second-order rotatable designs have been derived for the intra-class and inter-class correlated error structures. Second-order rotatability conditions have been derived herein assuming the response follows non-normal distribution (any one of the above four distributions) and errors have a general correlated error structure. These conditions are further simplified under intra-class and inter-class correlated error structures, and second-order rotatable designs are developed under these two structures for the response having anyone of the above four distributions. It is derived herein that robust second-order rotatable designs depend on the respective error variance covariance structure but they are independent of the correlation parameter values, as well as the considered four response lifetime distributions.
