Robust tuning rules of the motion profile are proposed to minimize the residual vibration. For asymmetric S-curve profile, tuning rules are analytically formulated using Laplace-domain approach. When the system modeling is known exactly, by placing a single zero of the motion profile on the pole of the system, the residual vibration can be perfectly eliminated under undamped system. However, if there are some amounts of the modeling errors, the residual vibration significantly increases. To track this issue, the robust tuning rules against modeling error are discussed. One of the proposed robust tuning rules is placing the multiple zeros of the motion profile on the pole of the system, and the other is placing the zeros of the motion profile around the pole of the system. Thanks to the proposed robust tuning rules, motion profile becomes more robust to modeling errors while minimizing the residual vibration. By simulation, the effectiveness of the proposed robust tuning rules is verified.

This paper proposes a bidirectional platoon control law using a coupled distance error based on the backstepping-like feedback linearization control method for an interconnected mobile agent system with a string structure. Unlike the previous results where the single agent was controlled using the only own information without other agents, the proposed control law cannot show the only distance error convergence of each agent, but also the string stability of the whole system. Also, the control performances are improved by the proposed control law in spite of low performance of bidirectional control strategy in the previous results. The proposed bidirectional platoon control algorithm is based on the backstepping-like feedback linearization control method. The position errors between each agent and the preceding and the behind agents are coupled by weighted summation. By the proposed control law, the distance error of each agent can converge to zero while the string stability is guaranteed when the coupled errors can converge to zero. To this end, the back-stepping control method is employed. The pseudo velocity input is determined considering the kinematic relationship between agents and the string stability. Then, the actual dynamic control input is determined to make the actual velocity converge to the pseudo velocity input. The stability analysis and the simulation results of the proposed method are included in order to demonstrate the practical application of the proposed algorithm.

In order to investigate the fish behavior in the water tank, the three dimensional positioning system with two CCD cameras was designed. The positioning system was tested at the vertical circulation water channel with observational part of 1,500L$\times$1,500W$\times$500H mm and the circular water tank with 2,050ø sub(1)$\times$1,850ø sub(2)$\times$400H mm. The observational error of vertical direction was larger than that of horizontal direction, and the observational error became enlarged in all directions according to the increase of depth and distance from the visual axis. The maximum observational errors of horizontal and vertical directions at the circulation channel ranged from -1.7 cm to 1.8 cm (2.4%) and zero to 2.1 cm (4.2%), respectively. But the errors of horizontal and vertical directions at the circular tank ranged from -1.3 cm to 1.3 cm (1.3%) and zero to 1.3 cm (3.3%), respectively.

The conventional burst-mode APC(Automatic Power Control) circuit had an effective structure that was suitable for a low power consumption and a monolithic chip. However, as data rate was increased, it caused errors due to the effect of the zero density. In this paper, we invented a new structured peak-comparator which could compensate the unbalance of the injected currents using double gated MOS and MOS diode. And we proposed a new burst-mode APC adopting it. The new peak-comparator in the proposed APC was very robust to zero density variations maintaining the correct decision point of the current comparison at high data rate. It was also suitable for a low power consumption and a monolithic chip due to lack of large capacitors.

When the observations can take only the non-negative integer values, it is called the count data such as the numbers of car accidents, earthquakes, or insurance coverage. In general, the Poisson regression model has been used to model these count data; however, this model has a weakness in that it is restricted by the equality of the mean and the variance. On the other hand, the count data often tend to be too dispersed to allow the use of the Poisson model in practice because the variance of data is significantly larger than its mean due to heterogeneity within groups. When overdispersion is not taken into account, it is expected that the resulting parameter estimates or standard errors will be inefficient. Since coverage is the main issue for insurance, some accidents may not be covered by insurance, and the number covered by insurance may be zero. This paper considers the zero-inflated model for the count data including many zeros. The performance of this model has been investigated by using of real data with overdispersion and many zeros. The results indicate that the Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial Regression Model performs the best for model evaluation.

The major error factors that degrade the efficiency of coherent beam combining (CBC) are numerically studied in a comprehensive manner, paying particular attention to phase, tip-tilt, polarization angle, and beam quality. The power in the bucket (PIB), normalized to the zero-error PIB, is used as a figure of merit to quantify the effect of each error factor. To maintain a normalized PIB greater than or equal to 95% in a 3-channel CBC configuration, the errors in phase, tip-tilt, and polarization angle should be less than 1.06 radians, 1.25 ㎛, and 1.06 radians respectively, when each of the three parameters is calculated independently with the other two set to zero. In a worst-case scenario of the composite errors within the parameter range for the independent-95%-normalized-PIB condition, the aggregate effect would reduce the normalized PIB to 83.8%. It is noteworthy that the PIB performances of a CBC system, depending on phase and polarization-angle errors, share the same characteristic feature. A statistical approach for each error factor is also introduced, to assess a CBC system with an extended number of channels. The impact of the laser's beam-quality factor M² on the combining efficiency is also analyzed, based on a super-Gaussian beam. When M² increases from 1 to 1.3, the normalized PIB is reduced by 2.6%, 11.8%, 12.8%, and 13.2% for a single-channel configuration and 3-, 7-, and 19-channel CBC configurations respectively. This comprehensive numerical study is expected to pave the way for advances in the evaluation and design of multichannel CBC systems and other related applications.

In this paper, we proposed an adaptive fuzzy sliding control for unknown nonlinear systems using estimation of bounds for approximation errors. Unknown nonlinearity of a system is approximated by the fuzzy logic system with a set of IF-THEN rules whose consequence parameters are adjusted on-line according to adaptive algorithms for the purpose of controlling the output of the nonlinear system to track a desired output. Also, using assumption that the approximation errors satisfy certain bounding conditions, we proposed the estimation algorithms of approximation errors by Lyapunov synthesis methods. The overall control system guarantees that the tracking error asymptotically converges to zero and that all signals involved in controller are uniformly bounded. The good performance of the proposed adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller is verified through computer simulations on an inverted pendulum system.

A spectral formalism was applied to quantify the sampling errors due to spatial and/or temporal gaps in soil moisture measurements. The lack of temporal measurements of the two-dimensional soil moisture field makes it difficult to compute the spectra directly from observed records. Therefore, the space-time soil moisture spectra derived by stochastic models of rainfall and soil moisture was used in their record. Parameters for both models were tuned with Southern Great Plains Hydrology Experiment(SGP'97) data and the Oklahoma Mesonet data. The structure of soil moisture data is discrete in space and time. A design filter was developed to compute the sampling errors for discrete measurements in space and time. This filter has the advantage in its general form applicable for all kinds of sampling designs. Sampling errors of the soil moisture estimation during the SGP'97 Hydrology Experiment period were estimated. The sampling errors for various sampling designs such as satedlite over pass and point measurement ground probe were estimated under the climate condition between June and August 1997 and soil properties of the SGP'97 experimental area. The ground truth design was evaluated to 25km and 50km spatial gap and the temporal gap from zero to 5 days.

Power system fault analysis is commonly based on well-known symmetrical component method, which describes power system elements by positive, negative and zero sequence impedance. In case of balanced fault, such as three phase short circuit, transmission line can be represented by positive sequence impedance only. The majority of fault in transmission lines, however, is unbalanced fault, such as line-to-ground faults, so that both positive and zero sequence impedance is required for fault analysis. When unbalanced fault occurs, zero sequence current flows through earth and skywires in overhead transmission systems and through cable sheaths and earth in cable transmission systems. Since zero sequence current distribution between cable sheath and earth is dependent on both sheath bondings and grounding configurations, care must be taken to calculate zero sequence impedance of underground cable transmission lines. In this paper, conventional and EMTP-based sequence impedance calculation methods were described and applied to 345kV cable transmission systems (4 circuit, OF 2000mm2). Calculation results showed that detailed circuit analysis is desirable to avoid possible errors of sequence impedance calculation resulted from various configuration of cable sheath bonding and grounding in underground cable transmission systems.

In the case of a system that detects and controls the phase of an alternating voltage, the analog control method compensates the phase offset part by filtering for the detected phase and applies it to the control. However, in the digital control method, precise control cannot be achieved due to an error between the operating frequency of the microprocessor or the microcontroller and the input phase time when controlled using such phase detection. In general, when the method used is a certain time, the accumulated error is compensated and adjusted at random. To solve this problem, a method of detecting a zero point in real time and compensating for the operating frequency of the microprocessor is needed. Therefore, the research to be performed in this paper to reduce these errors and apply them to precise digital control is as follows. 1) Research on how to implement Zero Crossing Detection algorithm through simulation modeling to compensate the zero point to match the operating frequency through detection. 2) A study on the method of detecting zero points in real time through the Zero Crossing Detection design using a microcontroller and compensating for the operating frequency of the microprocessor. 3) A study on the estimation of the rotor position of BLDC motors using the Zero Crossing Detection circuit.
