  • Recently, as Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) and self-driving system become influential in the ground transportation system, automotive radar systems have been actively studied among the various radar systems to implement the vehicle collision detection system and distance measurement system between vehicles. Most of the automotive radars are Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar type which can calculate distance and velocity of target by estimating the frequency difference between the transmitted signal and received signal. Therefore, accurate frequency estimation is very important in the FMCW radar system. For this reason, to improve the measurement accuracy of the FMCW radar, Reverse Directional FRI (RD-FRI) Super-Resolution technique which has high frequency estimation accuracy is applied to the FMCW radar system. The feasibility of the proposed technique is evaluated with simulation results and compared with FFT and conventional Super-Resolution techniques. The simulation results show that the proposed technique estimates the frequency with high accuracy and the distance with centimeter accuracy.

  • The autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is being widely researched in order to achieve superior performance when working in hazardous environments. This research focuses on using image processing techniques to estimate the AUV's egomotion and the changes in orientation, based on image frames from different time frames captured from a single high-definition web camera attached to the bottom of the AUV. A visual odometry application is integrated with other sensors. An internal measurement unit (IMU) sensor is used to determine a correct set of answers corresponding to a homography motion equation. A pressure sensor is used to resolve image scale ambiguity. Uncertainty estimation is computed to correct drift that occurs in the system by using a Jacobian method, singular value decomposition, and backward and forward error propagation.

  • 작황 모니터링에서 바이오매스의 정확한 평가를 위해서는 정확하고 신속한 작물 생육 상황 등 현장자료의 확보가 필수적이다. 또한, 바이오매스의 평가는 작황 모니터링 및 수확량 예측에 활용된다. 무인기 영상은 작물의 성장에 따라 빠르게 수집할 수 있기 때문에 정밀농업에서 포장내 공간변이 파악 및 분석에 사용되고 있다. 본 연구는 원격탐사 기술을 이용한 동계작물 바이오매스 평가 방법 개발을 위하여 식생지수($E{\times}G$)에 의한 식생 피복률(VF)과 작물 표고 모형(CSM) 기반의 초고(PH)를 이용하여 보리와 밀을 대상으로 바이오매스 평가 모델을 개발하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 식생 피복률, 초고 및 상호작용 항을 독립변수로 하여 다중 선형 회귀 모델을 구축한 결과, 5가지 품종의 결정계수는 0.84~0.99로 나타났으며, 보리와 밀의 결정계수 및 평균 제곱근 오차는 각각 0.91, 0.90 및 102.09, $110.87g/m^2$으로 나타났다. 따라서 무인기 영상을 활용한 동계작물의 바이오매스 평가 및 작황 모니터링이 가능한 것으로 판단된다.

  • 국내에서 이동실험실(BL3급)에 대한 연구와 기술개발 시도가 지속적으로 있어 왔다. 그러나 사업성과 제작기술 적용 문제로 주로 국외에서 이동실험실 차량 전체를 도입하여 보급하거나 국내 제작된 차체에 쉘터 부분은 국외에서 도입하는 방식으로 특수차량이 제작되어 왔다. 차량제작에 있어 쉘터부분의 양압과 음압의 기술력 확보가 관점이며, 각 설비별 기능분석을 통해 국산화 및 표준화 전략을 알아보고 기능개선 방향과 현 장비의 문제점을 확인하여 기존 도입된 특수차량들의 내부 구조와 기능에 대한 비교.분석을 통한 국내외의 제작기술을 확인하고 이를 적용하여 개선된 기술력을 확보하여 쉘터 내부의 양압설비와 구조설비에 적용할 수 있는 국산화 방안 모색하고 기존 분석 이동실험실의 제원.탑재장비의 현황을 참고하여 국내에 도입 가능한 이동식 측정분석차량 제작을 모색하고자 한다.

  • Sound quality and NVH-issues(Noise, Vibration and Harshness) of vehicles has become very important for car manufacturers. It is interpreted as among the most relevant factors regarding perceived product quality, and is important in gaining market advantage. The general sound quality of vehicles was gradually improved over the years. However, today the development cycles in the automotive industry are constantly reduced to meet the customers' demands and to react quickly to market needs. In addition, new drive and fuel concepts, tightened ecological specifications, increase of vehicle classes and increasing diversification(increasing market for niche vehicles), etc. challenge the acoustic engineers trying to develop a pleasant, adequate, harmonious passenger cabin sound. Another aspect concerns the general pressure for reducing emission and fuel consumption, which lead to vehicle weight reductions through material changes also resulting in new noise and vibration conflicts. Furthermore, in the context of alternative powertrains and engine concepts, the new objective is to detect and implement the vehicle sound, tailored to suit the auditory expectations and needs of the target group. New questions must be answered: What are appropriate sounds for hybrid or electric vehicles? How are new vehicle sounds perceived and judged? How can customer-oriented, client-specific target sounds be determined? Which sounds are needed to fulfil the driving task, and so on? Thus, advanced methods and tools are necessary which cope with the increasing complexity of NVH-problems and conflicts and at the same time which cope with the growing expectations regarding the acoustical comfort. Moreover, it is exceedingly important to have already detailed and reliable information about NVH-issues in early design phases to guarantee high quality standards. This requires the use of sophisticated simulation techniques, which allow for the virtual construction and testing of subsystems and/or the whole car in early development stages. The virtual, testing is very important especially with respect to alternative drive concepts(hybrid cars, electric cars, hydrogen fuel cell cars), where complete new NVH-problems and challenges occur which have to be adequately managed right from the beginning. In this context, it is important to mention that the challenge is that all noise contributions from different sources lead to a harmonious, well-balanced overall sound. The optimization of single sources alone does not automatically result in an ideal overall vehicle sound. The paper highlights modern and innovative NVH measurement technologies as well as presents solutions of recent NVH tasks and challenges. Furthermore, future prospects and developments in the field of automotive acoustics are considered and discussed.

  • 최근 자율주행차 시장이 지속해 성장함에 따라 충전 인프라에 대한 필요성이 커지고 있다. 그러나 무선 충전 시스템의 경우 기존 유선 충전에 비해 대출력이 요구되어 안정성 문제가 제기되고 있다. 자율주행차 무선 충전 인프라를 구축하기 위한 표준으로는 SAE J2954가 존재하며 해당 표준에서는 차량과 전력 전송 시스템 간의 통신 방법에 대해 정의한다. SAE J2954에서는 자율주행차량의 무선 충전 통신 방법으로 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 및 UWB와 같은 물리적 미디어를 사용해 차량과 충전 패드 간의 통신을 활성화할 것을 권장한다. 특히 UWB는 실내 환경에서 견고한 통신 능력을 보이고 간섭에 민감하지 않기 때문에 실내외 충전 환경에서 적합한 솔루션이다. 해당 표준에서는 무선전력전송 시스템을 구축하기 위한 프로세스로 충전 시작부터 충전 완료까지를 여러 단계로 구분하였다. 본 연구에서는 UWB 기술을 사용하여 무선전력전송 시스템의 한 가지 프로세스인 Fine alignment의 수단으로 사용한다. 실제 자율주행차 무선전력전송 시스템에 적용 가능성을 판단하기 위해 거리에 따라 실험을 수행하였으며 UWB로부터 거리 정보를 수집하였다. UWB로부터 얻어진 거리 데이터의 정확도를 향상시키기 위해 수집한 데이터를 세 단계의 전처리 과정을 거쳐 머신러닝과 딥러닝 기법을 적용한 Single Model과 Multi Model을 제안한다.

  • Although Graphite Compacted Vermicular (GCV) was first observed in 1948, the narrow range for stable foundry production precluded the high volume application of GCV to complex components such as cylinder blocks and heads until advanced process control technologies became available. This, in turn, had to await the advent of modern measurement electronics and computer processors. Following the development of foundry techniques and manufacturing solutions, primarily initiated in Europe during the 1990s, the first series production of GCV cylinder blocks began during 1999. Today, more than 40,000 GCV cylinder blocks are produced each month for OEMs, including Audi, DAF, Ford, Hundai, MAN, Mercedes, PSA, Volkswagen, and Volvo. Given that new engine programs are typically intended to support three to four vehicle generations, the chosen engine materials must satisfy current design criteria and also provide the potential for future performance upgrades without changing the overall block architecture. With at least a 75% increase in the ultimate tensile strength, a 40% increase in the elastic modulus, and approximately double the fatigue strength of either iron or aluminum, GCV is ideally suited to meet current and future of engine design and performance requirements.

  • 자율주행 기술 개발에 있어서 드라이빙 시뮬레이터의 활용은 사고 환경에 대한 다양한 테스트를 단시간에 효과적으로 수행 가능하게 하여 개발 비용 및 노력을 획기적으로 줄일 수 있다. 그러나 드라이빙 시뮬레이터는 실제 환경과 차이가 존재한다는 심각한 단점이 존재하므로 드라이빙 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 개발된 자율주행 알고리즘이 실제 차량 시스템에 직접 적용시킬 때 큰 차이가 발생하는 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제는 Sim2Real 문제로 정의되며, 시나리오, 센서 모델링, 차량 동역학 등으로 구분할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 Sim2Real 문제 중에서 IMU센서에 대해서 Sim2Real 문제 해결 방안에 대한 연구를 수행한다. 실제 환경과 에뮬레이터된 가상 IMU 센서의 차이를 줄이기 위해서 IMU 센서의 정밀 오차 모델링을 통한 센서 에뮬레이터 기술에 대해 소개한다. Bias, Scale Factor, Misalignmnet, Random Walk에 따른 오차를 가상 IMU 센서 등급별로 모델링하고 이를 실제 IMU 센서의 등급에 따른 오차 지표와 비교함으로써 IMU 센서의 Sim2Real 문제를 완화한다.

  • When the capacity and traffic operation at signalized intersections are analyzed in Korea, the unprotected left-turn saturation flow rate, which is an important parameter for the analysis, is estimated form the USHCM model. thus, exact analysis of the left-turn is not possible because of the difference of traffic environments between two contries. In order to improve this problem, it is undertaken in this study to develop techniques for the estimation of unprotected left-turn saturation flows based on Korean drivers' data. As study intersections, signalized or unsignalized intersections on the 6, 4 and 2 lane streets are selected. the data for the saturation flow measurement and gap-acceptance behavior analysis are inputed in a notebook computer on the sites. The critical acceptance gaps of the 6, 4, and 2 lane streets are analyzed to be 6.0 secs, 4.6 secs, and 4.3 secs respectively. the average minimum headway of the left-turn vehicle was observed to be 2.6 secs. As the model to estimate unportected left-turn saturation flows, the drew model is recommended for 6 and 4 lane streets, and a graph is suggested for the 2-lane street. As the values of the parameters of the Drew model, the 2.6 secs of this study is recommended for the average minimum headway of the left-turn. But, the critical acceptance gap varies according to the approach speed of opposing traffic and driver population, it requires field survey to measure the gap of an intersection; however, the values of the gaps studied in this study may be used for the general intersections in urban area in Korean.

  • As current and future automobile emission regulations become more stringent, the research on flow distribution for an exhaust manifold and close-coupled catalyst(CCC) has become an interesting and remarkable subjects. The design of a CCC and exhaust manifold is a formidable task due to the complexity of the flow distribution caused by the pulsating flows from piston motion and engine combustion. Transient flow at the exhaust manifold can be analyzed with various computational fluid dynamics(CFD) tools. However, the results of such simulations must be verified with appropriate experimental data from real engine operating condition. In this study, an experimental approach was performed to investigate the flow distribution of exhaust gases for conventional cast types and stainless steel bending types of a four-cylinder engine. The pressure distribution of each exhaust sub-component was measured using a simulated dynamic flow bench and five-hole pitot probe. Moreover, using the results of the pitot tube measurement at the exit of the CCC, the flow distribution for two types of manifolds(cast type and bending type) was compared in terms of flow uniformity. Based on these experimental techniques, this study can be highly applicable to the design and optimization of exhaust for the better use of catalytic converters to meet the PZEV emission regulation.
