This paper studied a method of estimating target information using a radar in wireless communication. Position information on the target can be estimated angle, distance and velocity. The velocity information can be estimated since the Doppler frequency is changed in the moving target. The signal incident on the receiving array antenna is multiplied by the delay time and the reference signal to represent the output signal. This output signal is estimated by applying FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) after calculating signal correlation through correlation integrator. Since the output signal must be calculated within the correlator, it should be processed with the Dwell time. The correlation signal of the correlation integrator outside this Dwell time is indicated by the velocity measurement error. The FFT is applied to the signal that has passed through the correlated integrator in order to estimate the distance of the signal. The Doppler resolution must be improved because the FFT estimates target information using the Doppler information. The Doppler resolution decreases with increasing the integration time. The velocity information estimation should have no spread of the velocity. As a result of the simulation, there was no spread of the target velocity in this study.

The destructive method is reliable and widely used for the estimation of material degradation but, it have time-consuming and a great difficulty in preparing specimens from in-service industrial facilities. Therefore, the estimation of degraded structural materials by nondestructive evaluation is strongly desired. In this paper, the use of guided wave was suggested for the evaluation of thermally damaged 2.25 Cr-lMo steel as an alternative way to compensate for limitations of fracture tests. The observation of microstructure variations of the material including carbide precipitation increase and spheroidization near grain boundary was conducted and the correlation with the guided wave features such as energy loss ratio and group velocity changes was investigated. Through this study, the feasibility of ultrasonic guided wave evaluation for thermally damaged materials was explored.

This paper presents a step length estimation algorithm for Pedestrian Dead Reckoning using linear calibrated ZUPT (zero velocity update) with a foot mounted IMU. The IMU consists of 3 axis accelerometer, gyro and magnetometer. Attitude of IMU is estimated using an inertial navigation algorithm. To increase accuracy of step length estimation algorithm, we propose a stance detection algorithm and an enhanced ZUPT. The enhanced ZUPT calculates firefighter's step length considering velocity error caused by sensor bias during one step. This algorithm also works efficiently at various motions, such as crawling, sideways and stair stepping. Through experiments, the step length estimation performance of the proposed algorithm is verified.

Vehicle dynamics control (VDC) system requires more information on driving conditions compared with ABS and/or TCS. In order to develop the VDC system, tire slip angles, vehicle side-slip angle, and vehicle lateral velocity as well as road friction coefficient are needed. Since there are not any cheap and reliable sensors, recent researches on parameter estimation have given rise to a number of parameter estimation techniques. This paper presents new vehicle model to estimate vehicle's yaw rate. This model is improved from the conventional 2 degrees of freedom vehicle model, so-called bicycle model, taking nonlinear effects into account. These nonlinear effects are: (i) tyre nonlinearity; (ii) lateral load transfer during cornering; (iii) variable gear ratio with respect to vehicle velocity. Estimation results are validated with the experimental results.

암석의 속도를 정확히 예측하기 위해서는 속도에 1차적인 영향을 미치는 공극구조의 연구가 필수적이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 고해상도 구조 해석에 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 X선 토모그래피 방법을 이용하여 공극구조를 획득하였다. 그러나 X선 토모그래피 방법의 경우 그 역산과정에서 발생하는 smoothing 효과에 의해 공극구조가 왜곡될 수 있다.이를 간단한 공극구조 생성 방법인 single threshold 방법으로 이분화 할 경우 grain contact 부분이 명확히 표현되지 않아 입자의 접촉면적에 좌우되는 속도의 경우 많은 오차를 야기한다. 또한 grain contact의 정확한 기술을 위해서는 고해상도 토모그램 획득이 매우 중요하며, 해상도에 따른 속도의 변화양상 또한 정량적 분석이 필요한 부분이다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 영상처리 기법을 적용하여 다양한 이분화를 시도하고, 서로 다른 해상도의 토모그램을 이용하여 이들이 속도 계산에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 다양한 영상처리 기법을 적용한 결과 single threshold 방법으로 이분화 한 결과보다 정확한 접촉면적을 보여주는 이분화 결과를 얻을 수 있었지만 실제 계산된 속도에서는 그 향상 정도가 미미하였다. 고해상도 토모그램을 이용한 경우에는 입자의 grain contact이 명확하게 표현되었고, 속도 또한 상당히 향상된 결과를 보여주었다. 결론적으로 디지털 공극구조에서 시뮬레이션을 통한 속도 예측의 경우, 입자의 접촉 부분을 정확히 기술 할 수 있는 높은 해상도의 토모그램이 필수적이며, smoothing 효과의 제거 등의 영상처리와 병행된다면 보다 정확한 암석의 속도 예측이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

홍수 유량측정은 직접 하천에 접촉하는 방식의 경우 측정인력의 안전 문제와 다수의 인력이 필요한 점 등 어려운 점이 많다. 최근 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 현장에서 측정이 간편하고, 수면에 접촉하지 않는 비접촉방식의 전자파표면유속계 활용이 증가하고 있으나 돌발적이고 급변하는 현장 여건의 적용에 있어 어려움이 있다. 따라서, 홍수 상황에서 표면유속을 이용한 유량산정방법은 이론적이고, 경제적인 접근이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 전자파표면유속계 측정자료와 수위-유량관계곡선식 자료를 수집하여 표면유속을 이용한 지표유속법과 유속분포법을 적용 및 분석하였다. 전반적으로 동수반경 3 m 이상 또는 평균유속 2 ㎧ 이상에서는 모든 방법이 측정유량 및 환산유량과 유사한 결과로 분석되었다. 그리고 대상지점 중 수위-유량관계곡선식 고수위 범위에서 최대유속 발생 위치 구간의 최대 표면유속을 이용하여 지표유속법과 유속분포법으로 유량을 산정하였고, 환산유량과의 평균 상대오차가 모두 10% 이내로 비교적 일치하였다. 홍수시 한 개의 최대 표면유속 측정과 지표유속법 및 유속분포법을 이용한 유량산정방법은 고수위 외삽 개발에 적용할 경우 외삽추정 구간에 대한 신뢰도를 제고할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다. 따라서, 본 연구결과를 토대로 한 표면유속을 이용한 유량산정방법은 신속하고 효율적인 홍수 유량측정 방안이 될 것으로 기대된다.

This paper deals with a robust fine seek controller design problem with multiple constraints using a genetic algorithm. A robust $H\infty$ constraint is introduced to attenuate effectively velocity disturbance caused by the eccentric rotation of the disk. A weighting function is optimally selected based on the estimation of velocity disturbance and the estimated minimum velocity loop gain. A robust velocity loop constraint is considered to minimize the variances of the velocity loop gain and bandwidth against the uncertainties of fine actuator. Finally, a robust fine seek controller is obtained by solving a genetic algorithm with an LMI condition and an appropriate objective function. The proposed controller design method is applied to the fine seek control system of a DVD recording device and is evaluated through the experimental results.

We present an efficient and robust technique to estimate the velocity of moving targets from a single SAR image. In SAR images, azimuth image shift is a well known phenomenon, which is observed in moving targets having slant-range velocity. Most methods estimated the velocity of moving targets from the distance difference between the road and moving targets or between ship and the ship wake. However, the methods could not be always applied to moving targets because it is difficult to find the road and the ship wake. We adopted a method estimating the velocity of moving targets from azimuth differentials of range-compressed image. This method is based on an assumption that Doppler center frequency shift of moving target causes a phase difference in azimuth differential values. The phase difference is linearly distorted by Doppler rate due to the geometry of SAR image. The linear distortion is eliminated from phase removal procedure, and the constant phase difference is estimated. Finally, range velocity estimates for moving targets are retrieved. This technique is tested using an ENVISAT ASAR image in which several unknown ships are presented. The theoretical accuracy of this technique is discussed by SAR simulation. The advantages and disadvantages of this method over the conventional method are also discussed.

Coordinate estimation is an essential function for autonomous navigation of a mobile robot. The optical mouse sensor is convenient and cost-effective for the coordinate estimation problem. It is possible to overcome the position estimation error caused by the slip and the model mismatch of robot's motion equation using the optical mouse sensor. One of the simple methods for the position estimation using the optical mouse sensor is integration of the velocity data from the sensor with time. However, the unavoidable noise in the sensor data may deteriorate the position estimation in case of the simple integration method. In general, a mobile robot has ready-to-use motion information from the encoder sensors of driving motors. By combining the velocity data from the optical mouse sensor and the motion information of a mobile robot, it is possible to improve the coordinate estimation performance. In this paper, a coordinate estimation algorithm for an autonomous mobile robot is presented based on the well-known Kalman filter that is useful to combine the different types of sensors. Computer simulation results show the performance of the proposed localization algorithm for several types of trajectories in comparison with the simple integration method.

This paper presents a new velocity estimation strategy of a non-salient permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive without high frequency signal injection or special PWM pattern. This approach is based on the d-axis current regulator output voltage of the drive system that has the information of rotor position error. The rotor velocity can be estimated through a rotor position tracking PI controller that controls the position error to zero. For zero and low speed operation, PI controller gains of rotor position tracking controller have a variable structure according to the estimated rotor velocity. In order to boost the bandwidth of PI controller around zero speed, a loop recovery technique is applied to the control system. The proposed method only requires the flux linkage of permanent magnet and is insensitive to the parameter estimation error and variation. The designers can easily determine the possible operating range with a desired bandwidth and perform the vector control even at low speeds. The experimental results show the satisfactory operation of the proposed sensorless algorithm under rated load conditions.
