A study of the guideway vehicle was made for a comparison of ride stabilities between its two primary steering types; one is the front wheel steering and the other the front-rear wheel. A numerical model as a closed loop system was built for an investigation of various factors to have an influence on the vehicular critical speed which is closely associated with ridabilities. It was shown that dynamics stabilities of the front steering type was much better over a large value of steering gain and the longer distance between front axle and guide link for both types provided better stabilities as well. A large steering gain ratio of the front to the rear significantly plays an important role in an improvement of stability in the front-rear steering. To observe a qualitative trend on stability behaviors, the root locus was obtained by considering a time lag which may be frequently caused by the complicated steering mechanism. In performing so, the appropriate selection of steering gain had a greater effect on the front-rear steering vehicle far more ride comfort. In addition, the dynamics model proposed here can be utilized for a more accurate evaluation on the vehicle design in lateral or yawing absorber and moreover expanded for the analysis of independent four-wheel steering vehicle.

The power steering system for vehicles is becoming essential for supporting the steering efforts of the drivers, especially for the parking lot maneuver Although hydraulic power steering has been widely used for years, its efficiency is not high enough. The problems associated with a hydraulic howe. steering system can be solved by a motor driven power steering (MDPS) system. In this study, a dynamic model and a control algorithm for the ball screw type of MDPS system have been derived and analyzed by using the method of discrete modeling technology. To improve steering feel and power steering characteristics, two derivative gains are added to the conventional power boosting control algorithm. Through simulations, the effects of the control gain on the steering angle gain were verified in the frequency domain. The steering returnability and steering torque phase lag in on-center handling test were also evaluated in the time domain.

Though hydraulic power steering has been widely used for a long time, the efficiency of that is not high enough. The motor driven power steering system can solve the problems associated with the hydraulic power steering system. In this study, dynamic model and control algorithm of the ball screw type of MDPS systenem have been derived and analysed by using the method of discrete modeling technology. To improve steering feel and power steering characteristics, the additional scheme is proposed to the conventional power boosting control algorithm. Through simulations, control gain effects to the steering angle gain in the frequency domain were verified.

This paper is to study a comparison of ride stabilities for the guideway vehicle between its three primary steering types; the front-rear wheel steering type, tile independent wheel steering and the front wheel steering. A numerical model were built to investigate various factors to have an influence on the vehicular stability. It was shown that dynamic stabilities of the three types were dependent on the steering gain ratio of front wheel steering to rear. The front-rear wheel steering type was more stable for the value of positive steering gains and the shorter distance between front axle and guide link showed better stabilities. On the contrary, the independent wheel steering was more stable for the value of negative gains and the longer distance between front axle and guide link showed better stabilities. Ride characteristics of he front wheel steering seemed to be found midway. Ride behaviors due to time delay from front steering to rear were very different from steering type to type.

An active balun using current steering for phase correction is presented. The proposed active balun is constructed with two different unit balun structures based on current steering to reduce phase and amplitude errors. This type of topology can be compared with the conventional phase and amplitude correction techniques which do not incorporate the current steering. Designed and fabricated active balun in $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process operates over 0.95 - 1.45 GHz band, showing input reflection coefficient under -15 dB, phase error of $11^{\circ}$ and gain error of 0.5 dB. Gain is measured to be 0.3 dB maximum and power consumption of 7.2 mW is measured.

일반적으로 알려진 GPS 항재밍 기술로는 재밍 방향에 대한 감쇄효과를 얻는 널 스티어링 (null steering)과 위성방향으로의 추가 합성이득을 얻는 빔 스티어링 (beam steering) 방식이 있다. 이 신호처리 알고리즘을 소개하는 문헌에 의하면, 수학 공리에 따라 동시처리 가능한 재밍의 개수는 배열안테나 소자의 개수 N 에서 기준 안테나 1개를 제외한 N-1 개에 대해서만 유효하다는 표현을 하지만, 재머 배치나 비행체의 자세 그리고 둘 간의 상대적 배치 등 실질적인 운용 조건을 고려한 알고리즘 특성에 대한 분석은 알려져 있지 않다. 이에 본 논문에서는 4소자 및 7소자 표준 배열안테나가 적용된 항재밍 시스템을 모델링하여 비행체의 자세(수평, 수직)와 재머 배치, 그리고 안테나 소자 수를 고려한 두 항재밍 알고리즘(PM, LCMV)에 대한 성능 분석을 하였다. 결과적으로, 동일한 JSR 환경임에도 불구하고, 위성 신호와 재밍 신호 간 입사각이 상대적으로 큰 비행체의 수직 자세의 경우 수평 자세보다 약 10 dB 이상의 이득이 있음을 시뮬레이션을 통해 제시 하였다.

A general linearly constrained narrowband adaptive array is examined in the eigenvector space. The optimum weight vector in the eigenvector space is shown to have the same performance as in the standard coordinate system, except that the input signal correlation matrix and look direction steering vector are replaced with the eigenvalue matrix and transformed steering vector. It is observed that the variation in gain factor results in the variation in the distance between the constraint plane and the origin in the translated weight vector space such that the increase in gain factor decreased the distance from the constraint plane to the origin, thus affecting the nulling performance. Simulation results showed that the general linearly constrained adaptive array performed better at an optimal gain factor compared with the conventional linearly constrained adaptive array in a coherent signal environment and the former showed similar performance as the latter in a noncoherent signal environment.

본 논문에서는 다이폴과 루프 안테나가 결합된 빔 조향(steering) 재구성(reconfigurable) 안테나를 제시하였다. 본 안테나는 다이폴(dipole)과 루프(loop) 두 안테나가 결합하였을 때, 특정 비율에서 빔 방사 방향이 서로 상쇄되거나 보상되는 특성을 이용한 빔 조향 안테나이다. 본 안테나는 구조적으로 비교적 간단한 평판형 안테나이며, 안테나 상에 두 개의 스위치를 이용하여 안테나의 xy-평면상에서 서로 다른 세 개의 빔 방향을 갖도록 설계되었다. 본 논문에서는 우선 스위치를 이용한 빔 조향의 가능성을 확인하기 위하여 2개의 가상의 스위치(line 연결)를 이용하였으며, 두 개의 스위치 on/off 상태에 따라, 최대 빔 방향은 xy-평면상에서 $0^{\circ}$, ${\pm}50^{\circ}$, 3개의 빔 조향이 가능하다. 동작 주파수는 VSWR 2:1 기준으로2.50~2.56 GHz이다. 빔 조향 시 2.48~1.96 dBi의 최대 이득(peak gain)을 가지며, 세 가지 빔은 전체 $125^{\circ}$ 정도의 넓은 빔 커버리지를 갖는다.

A double-end rod hydraulic cylinder is widely used with a steering valve for the steering control system in large tractors. For the development of automatic steering controller, the feasibility of using a proportional control valve replacing the conventional manual steering valve to control the position of hydraulic steering cylinder was investigated in terms of the max. overshoot, the steady-state error and the rise time. A simulation model for the electrohydraulic steering system with load using AMESim package was developed to be valid so that the proper control algorithm could be chosen through the computer simulation. It could be concluded that the P-control algorithm was sufficient to control the electrohydraulic steering system, where the control frequency should be no greater than 20 Hz at the P-gain of 5. In particular, the performance of the developed steering controller was satisfactory even at the conditions of varying flow rates and loads.
