A new algorithm is proposed for the estimation of equivalent grid impedance at the point of common coupling of a grid-tie inverter output. The estimated impedance parameter can be used for the improvement of the performance and the stability of the distributed generation system. The estimation error is inevitable in the conventional estimation method because of the axis rotation due to PLL. In the conventional estimation error, the d-q voltage and current are used for the calculation of the impedance with active and reactive current injections. Conversely, in the proposed algorithm, the negative sequence current is injected, and then the negative sequence voltage is measured for the impedance estimation. As the positive and negative sequence current controller is independent and the PLL is based on the positive sequence component only, the estimation of the equivalent impedance can be achieved with high accuracy. Simulation and experimental results are compared to validate the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents the sensor location and step estimation algorithm for personal navigation system (PNS). PNS has the disadvantage in that the position of the sensor must be fixed on a human body. Three-axis acceleration sensor is used to solve the disadvantage and to consider the real situation. We simplify the measurement data by using the band pass filter, witch It has the advantage in the detection of characteristic point. Through the detected characteristic points, it is possible to setup the parameter for the pattern detection. Depending on the sensor location, the parameters have the different type of noise covariance. Particularly, when the position of the sensor is changed, the impulse noise shows up. Considering the noise, we apply the recursive least square algorithm using the variable forgetting factors, which can classify the sensor location based on the estimated parameters. We performed the experiment for the verification of the proposed algorithm in the various environments. Through the experimental results, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified.

This paper presents an algorithm that automatically extracts buildings among many different features on the earth surface by fusing LIDAR data with panchromatic aerial images. The proposed algorithm consists of three stages such as point level process, polygon level process, parameter space level process. At the first stage, we eliminate gross errors and apply a local maxima filter to detect building candidate points from the raw laser scanning data. After then, a grouping procedure is performed for segmenting raw LIDAR data and the segmented LIDAR data is polygonized by the encasing polygon algorithm developed in the research. At the second stage, we eliminate non-building polygons using several constraints such as area and circularity. At the last stage, all the polygons generated at the second stage are projected onto the aerial stereo images through collinearity condition equations. Finally, we fuse the projected encasing polygons with edges detected by image processing for refining the building segments. The experimental results showed that the RMSEs of building corners in X, Y and Z were ${\pm}$8.1㎝, ${\pm}$24.7㎝, ${\pm}$35.9㎝, respectively.

The current drone flight plan creation creates a flight path point of two-dimensional coordinates on the map and sets an arbitrary altitude value considering the altitude of the terrain and the possible flight altitude. If the created flight path is a simple terrain such as a mountain or field, or if the user is familiar with the terrain, setting the flight altitude will not be difficult. However, for drone flight in a city where buildings are dense, a safer and more precise flight path generation method is needed. In this study, using high-precision spatial information, we construct a drone safety flight map with a 3D grid map structure and propose a flight path search algorithm based on it. The safety of the flight path is checked through the virtual drone flight simulation extracted by searching for the flight path based on the 3D grid map created by setting weights on the properties of obstacles and terrain such as buildings.

This paper proposes a new phase current reconstruction technique for interleaved three-phase bidirectional dc-dc converters using a single current sensor. In the proposed current reconstruction algorithm, a single current sensor is employed at the dc-link, and the dc-link current information is sampled at either the peak or valley point of the pulse-width modulation (PWM) carriers regularly. From the obtained current information, all phase currents are reconstructed in a single PWM cycle. After that, the digital current controller is applied to achieve current balancing in each phase. Compare to the previous multiple current sensor method, the proposed strategy reduces the number of the current sensors in the interleaved three-phase bidirectional converter as well as reducing potential current sensing error caused by non-ideal characteristics of the multiple current sensors. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified from the experiments based on a 3kW three-phase bidirectional converter prototype for the automotive battery charging application.

Indoor location estimation studies are needed in various fields. The method of estimating the indoor position can be divided into a method using hardware and a method using no hardware. The use of hardware is more accurate, but has the disadvantage of hardware installation costs. Conversely, the non-hardware method is not costly, but it is less accurate. To estimate the location for AR game, you need to get the solution of the Perspective-N-Point (PnP). To obtain the PnP problem, we need three-dimensional coordinates of the space in which we want to estimate the position and images taken in that space. The position can be estimated through six pairs of two-dimensional coordinates matching the three-dimensional coordinates. To further increase the accuracy of the solution, we proposed the use of an additional non-coplanarity degree to determine which points would increase accuracy. As the non-coplanarity degree increases, the accuracy of the position estimation becomes higher. The advantage of the proposed method is that it can be applied to all existing location estimation methods and that it has higher accuracy than hardware estimation.

In this study, feature point detection and displacement measurement performance depending on feature extraction algorithms were compared and analyzed according to environmental changes and target types in the feature point-based displacement measurement algorithm. A three-story frame structure was designed for performance evaluation, and the displacement response of the structure was digitized into FHD (1920×1080) resolution. For performance analysis, the initial measurement distance was set to 10m, and increased up to 40m with an increment of 10m. During the experiments, illuminance was fixed to 450lux or 120lux. The artificial and natural targets mounted on the structure were set as regions of interest and used for feature point detection. Various feature detection algorithms were implemented for performance comparisons. As a result of the feature point detection performance analysis, the Shi-Tomasi corner and KAZE algorithm were found that they were robust to the target type, illuminance change, and increase in measurement distance. The displacement measurement accuracy using those two algorithms was also the highest. However, when using natural targets, the displacement measurement accuracy is lower than that of artificial targets. This indicated the limitation in extracting feature points as the resolution of the natural target decreased as the measurement distance increased.

A cold chain logistics (CCL) model for chilled food (-1℃ to 8℃) distributed in China was developed in this study. The CCL model consists of a distribution center (DC) and distribution target points (DT). The objective function of the CCL model is to minimize the total distribution routes of all distributors. To find the optimal result of the objective function, the hybrid genetic algorithm (HGA) approach is proposed. The HGA approach was constructed by combining the improved K-means and genetic algorithm (GA) approaches. In the case study, three scenarios were considered for the CCL model based on the distribution routes and the available distance, and they were solved using the proposed HGA approach. Analysis results showed that the distribution costs and mileage were reduced by approximately 19%, 20% and 16% when the proposed HGA approach was used.

In this study, the separation of short and long durations for estimation the parameters of IDF curve is suggested by using Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA). Objective functions are to minimize root mean squared error (RMSE) and relative RMSE between observed and computed values. The criteria for separation are two; the first one is to estimate more precisely the parameters of IDF curve and the second is to make a single IDF curve without non-continuous duration point. For this purpose 22 rainfall recording gauges operated by Korea Meteorological Administration are selected and three IDF curves that are used generally in South Korea are tested. The result shows that the IDF curve developed by Heo et al. (1999) would be the best of three tested IDF curves, and the suggested parameter estimation method using MOGA can compute more reliable parameters compared with empirical regression analysis.
