In this paper, a novel dual-type positioning mechanism using a voice coil motor(VCM) and a piezoelectric actuator is proposed for optical disk drive or near-field recording type drive. The VCM is used for a coarse motion actuator and the piezoelectric actuator, "S" configuration deflection motion when voltage applied, is used for a fine motion actuator with self-sensing technique, which allows it to sense and actuate simultaneously in a closed loop frame work. When the VCM rotates and stops, a position feedback control algorithm is adopted to further control residu vibration. The performance of the control scheme is confirmed through simulations and experiments.

This paper presents a design of the reticle stage for lithography using VCM(Voice Coil Motor) and kinematic analysis. The stage has three axes for X,Y,${\theta}_z$, those actuated by three VCM's individually. The reticle stage has cross coupled relations between X,Y,${\theta}_z$ axes, and the closed solution of the forward/inverse kinematics were solved to get an accurate reference position. The reticle stage for lithography was designed for reaching both high accuracy and long stroke, which was $0.1{\mu}m$ (X,Y)/ $1{\mu}rad({\theta}_z)$ accuracies and relatively long strokes about 2mm (X,Y) and 2 degrees(${\theta}_z$). Also this research presents a rotational compensation algorithm for the precision gap sensor for the stage. Simulation results show the overall performance of the whole algorithm and the improvement quantity of the rotational compensation algorithm.

In the current paper, the optimization shape of a polysilicon variable-capacitance micromotor (VCM) was determined using the seeker optimization algorithm (SOA). The optimum goal of the algorithm was to find the maximum torque value and minimum ripple torque by varying the geometrical parameters. The optimization process was performed using a combination of SOA and the finite-element method (FEM). The fitness value was calculated via FEM analysis using COMSOL3.4, and SOA was realized by MATLAB7.4. The proposed method was applied to a VCM with eight and six poles at the stator and rotor, respectively. For comparison, this optimization was also performed using the genetic algorithm. The results show that the optimized micromotor using SOA had a higher torque value and lower torque ripple, indicating the validity of this methodology for VCM design.

This paper proposes a small VCM (Voice coil motor) type actuator using curved suspensions for auto-focusing and zoom motions for mobile information devices. 1'he proposed focusing actuator adopts a nontraditional type of suspension using curved beams in order to extend output displacement within small height restriction. The curved beam is similar to the leaf spring type which is usually used in optical disk drives. In addition, three different materials are considered for the curved suspension model, and Aluminum shows the best dynamic characteristics. The proposed zoom actuator does not use a suspension supporting bobbin but a moving rail and a sloper mechanism by generating rotational force at lens holder. The sensitivity of design parameters on output performance is studied using ANSYS (3D FEM tool). Experiments using a prototype of the proposed actuator model verified the analytical prediction and performance.

MPEG-VCM(Video Coding for Machine)은 입력된 이미지/비디오의 특징(feature)를 압축하는 Track 1 과 입력 이미지/비디오를 직접 압축하는 Track 2 로 나뉘어 표준화가 진행 중이다. 본 논문은 Track 1 의 비전임무 네트워크로 사용하는 Detectron2 의 FPN(Feature Pyramid Network)에서 추출한 멀티-스케일 특징을 효율적으로 압축하는 MSFC 기반의 압축 모델의 개선 기법을 제시한다. 제안기법은 해상도를 줄여서 단일-스케일 압축맵을 압축하는 기존의 압축 모델에서 저해상도 특징맵을 고해상도 특징맵에 바텀-업(Bottom-Up) 구조로 합성하여 단일-스케일 특징맵을 구성하는 바텀-업 MSFF 를 가지는 압축 모델을 제시한다. 제안방법은 기존의 모델 보다 BPP-mAP 성능에서 1 ~ 2.7%의 개선된 BD-rate 성능을 보이며 VCM 의 이미지 앵커(image anchor) 대비 최대 -85.94%의 BD-rate 성능향상을 보인다.

방대한 비디오 데이터의 지능형 분석을 수행하는 기계를 위한 비디오 부호화 기술의 필요성이 대두되면서 MPEG 에서는 VCM(Video Coding for Machine) 표준화를 시작하였다. VCM 은 지능형 머신(machine)의 임무 수행을 위한 비디오 또는 비디오 특징(feature)의 압축 표준 기술로 기술 탐색 단계의 표준화를 진행하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 머신비전(machine vision) 네트워크에서 추출되는 대용량의 특징 압축을 위한 전처리 단계로 보다 효과적인 특징 표현 방법을 제시한다. 제안하는 특징 표현 방법은 정규화, 양자화 과정을 거쳐 특징 데이터 크기를 감소시킨다. 실험에서 특징을 4 개의 값으로 양자화 했을 때, 원본 대비 16 배의 데이터 크기가 감소되지만 mAP 평가 성능은 35.4592 로 높은 수준으로 유지함을 확인하였다.

The perpose of this study was to suggest the experimental characteristic of the Cherepnov Water Lifter following the drain mode. The Cherepnov Water Lifter(CWL), which is powered by the potential energy of water, can be set to operate automatically when the water m a tank is drained. In this study, a CWL is constructed in the valve drain controlling mode(VCM) and the siphon drain controlling mode(SCM), and a pressure transducer is installed. It was found that, in the VCM, intake flow volume is proportional to both delivery flow volume and drain flow volume. In the SCM, intake flow volume is proportional to drain flow volume, and the average delivery rate is proportional to both efficiency and the water utilization ratio. Also, in the VCM, the water utilization ratio is 35~49%, efficiency is 62~9O%, average delivery rate is 12.8~81.2$cm^3$/s, and the average drain rate is 14.O~91.5c$cm^3$/s. On the contrary in the SCM, the water utilization ratio is 1.7~38%, efficiency is 3~58%, average delivery rate is 3.1 ~69.2$cm^3$/s, and the average drain rate is shown as 114.5~ 183$cm^3$/s. As a result of the water utilization ratio, efficiency, average delivery rate, and average drain rate are compared, the VCM is found to be superior and the more economical mode. However, the VCM requires manpower and electricity to operate the electronic machinery involved, while the SCM requires no manpower or electricity at all. An economic evaluation of these differences will be necessary in the future. Also, in the SCM, studies to improve water utilization ratio and efficiency, to find the optimum height of the siphon for decreasing the average drain rate, and to determine the radius of curvature of throat have to be conducted in advance, since a large flow rate is drained during the priming action of the siphon.
