In this study, a new method has been presented for the detection of broken rotor bar (BRB) faults in inverter driven induction motors controlled via Field Oriented Control (FOC). To this end, a FOC controlled induction motor with a BRB fault was modeled using the Matlab/Simulink program. Experiments were carried out using the prepared simulation model at various loads and operating speeds. The motor current and speeds were monitored for healthy, 1, 2 and 3 BRB faults. The Resampling Based Order Tracking Analysis (RB-OTA) method was applied to the monitored signals. The obtained results were compared by using the classic Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method. When the obtained results were analyzed via the FFT method no information regarding any faults was determined in the run up or run down regions of the motor and the presented method gave very good results. The reliability of the proposed method was validated with experimental results. The main innovative part of this study is that the RB-OTA method was implemented on the induction motor current signal for detecting BRB faults.

This paper presents a fuzzy adaptive speed controller that guarantees a fast dynamic behavior and a precise trajectory tracking capability for surfaced-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motors (SPMSMs). The proposed fuzzy adaptive control strategy is simple and easy to implement. In addition, the proposed speed controller is very robust to system parameter and load torque variations because it does not require any accurate parameter values. The global stability of the proposed control system is analytically verified. To evaluate the proposed fuzzy adaptive speed controller, both simulation and experimental results are shown under motor parameter and load torque variations on a prototype SPMSM drive system.

Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) under partial shading condition (PSC) is a challenging process in the PV array system. The shaded PV panel makes different peak patterns on the P-V curve and misguides the MPPT algorithm. Various kinds of global MPP (GMPP) detecting algorithms are used to overcome this issue. Generally, too frequent execution of GMPP tracking algorithm reduces the achievable power of PV panel due to time spent on the scanning process. Thus, partial shading detection algorithm is essential for efficient utilization of solar energy source. While conventional method only detects fast shading patterns, the proposed algorithm always shows superb performance regardless of the speed of partial shading patterns.

In this study, a variable step algorithm is proposed on the basis of the perturb and observe method. The proposed algorithm can follow the maximum power point (MPP) quickly when solar irradiance changes rapidly. The proposed technique uses the voltage change characteristic at the MPP when the environment changes because of insolation or temperature. The MPP is tracked through the voltage control using a variable step method. This method determines the sudden change of solar irradiance by setting the threshold value and operates in fast tracking mode to track the MPP rapidly. When the operation point reaches the MPP, the mode switches to the variable step mode to minimize the steady state error. In addition, the output disturbance is decreased through the optimization of the control method design. The performance of the proposed MPPT algorithm is verified through simulation and experiment.

This paper presents new Adaptive Linear Combination Structure (ADALINE) for tracking/estimating voltage-current phasor and frequency of power system. To estimate the phasors and frequency from sampled data, the algorithm assumes that orthogonal coefficients and speed of angular frequency of power system are unknown parameters. With adequate sampled data, the estimation problem can be considered as a linear weighted least squares (LMS) problem. In addition to determining the phasors (orthogonal coefficients), the procedure estimates the power system frequency. The main algorithm is verified through a computer simulation and data from field. The proposed algorithm is tested with transient and dynamic behaviors during power swing, a step change of frequency upon islanding of small generators and disconnection of load. The algorithm shows a very high accuracy, robustness, fast response time and adaptive performance over a wide range of frequency, from 10 to 2000 Hz.

Momentum flywheels are widely applied for the generation of small and precise torque for the attitude control and inertial stabilization of satellites and space stations. Due to its inherited system nonlinearity, the tracking performance of the flywheel torque/speed in dynamic/plug braking operations is limited when a conventional controller is employed. To take advantage of the well-separated two-time-scale quantities of a flywheel driving system, the singular perturbation technique is adopted to improve the torque tracking performance. In addition, the composite control law, which combines slow- and fast- dynamic portions, is derived for flywheel driving systems. Furthermore, a novel control strategy for plug braking dynamics, which considers couplings between the Buck converter and the three-phase inverter load, is designed with easy implementation. Finally, experimental results are presented to demonstrate the correctness of the analysis and the superiority of the proposed methods.

증강 현실(Argument Reality)에 대한 관심이 증가함에 따라 빠르고 강건한 물체 추적(Object Tracking)기법의 개발이 큰 이슈가 되고 있다. 특히, 마커를 사용하지 않는 경우에 추적 속도와 정확도의 정보가 이루어지는 강건한 Markerless 3D 추적 기술은 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transform)를 이용한 특징점 추출 및 매칭 기법을 통하여 높은 정확도의 물체 추적기법을 제안한다. 그리고 실시간으로 적용하기 어려운 SIFT의 느린 특징점 추출과 매칭 단계를 GPU 기반의 병렬화 작업을 통하여 개선시켜 향상된 추적 속도를 보여준다.

Generally, general-purpose image processing system is so expensive that not so many users easily can access the system. In this paper attemps have been made to design and describe a general and economical image processing system for real-time aplications such as image data compression, pattern recognition and target tracking. The system comprises an operator console, image data acquisition/display sistem and IBM PC/XT. The system also utilizes a high speed Fairchild 16-bit microprocessor with ALU speed of 375 nsec for system control, algrithm execution and user computation. The system also can digitize /display a 256x 256x 8 bit image in real time and store two frames of images. All image pixels are directly accessible by the microprocessor for fast and efficient computation. Some experimental and illustrative results such as target tracking are presented to show the efficient performance of the system.

The paper is focusing on investigating the control characteristics of the baseline controller of 5 MW wind turbine provided by NREL(National Renewable Energy Laboratory). The baseline controller consist of two control logics, a maximum power tracking control below the rated wind speed and a constant power control above the rated wind speed. In the low wind speed, the mean generator power for changing the turbulent intensity and the optimal constant is studied through numerical simulations using FAST program. On the other hand, the constant power control logic and the constant control logic are compared in the high wind speed. It is confirmed that optimal constant is closely related to the turbulent intensity in low wind speed region and the constant torque control has better performance than the constant power control with respect to mechanical load in high wind speed region.

본 논문에서는 MPEG-1,2로부터 객체 기반 MPEG-4로의 고속 변환을 위한 정보 추출 알고리즘을 소개한다. 객체 기반 MPEG-4로의 변환을 위한 정보로써 객체 영상과 형상 정보, 매크로블록 움직임 벡터, 헤더정보가 MPEG-4로부터 추출된다. 추출된 정보를 이용하면 객체 기반 MPEG-4로의 고속 변환이 가능하다. 가장 중요한 정보인 객체 영상 추출은 MPEG-2의 움직임 벡터와 워터쉐드 알고리즘을 이용하여 이루어진다. 사용자의 인지정보를 이용하여 프레임 내에서 객체를 추출하고, 추출된 객체로 연속된 프레임에서 객체를 추적하게 된다. 수행 중 객체의 빠른 움직임으로 만족스럽지 못한 결과를 내더라도, 사용자가 개입하여 다시 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있도록 하였다. 객체 추적 과정은 크게 두 단계로 객체 추출 단계와 객체 추적 단계로 나누어져 있다. 객체 추출 단계는 블록분류와 워터쉐드 알고리즘으로 자동 분할된 영상에서 사용자가 직접 객체를 추출하는 단계이다. 사용자가 개입하는 단계이기 때문에, 번거로울 수 있으나 손쉽게 추출할 수 있도록 구현하였다 객체 추적 단계는 연속된 프레임에서 객체를 추적하는 단계로, MPEG-1,2 움직임 벡터와 객체 모양 정보를 이용하여 고속으로 구해지고 워터쉐드 알고리즘으로 윤곽선 보정작업을 하였다 실험 결과 MPEG-1,2 비트스트림으로부터 객체 기반 MPEC-4로의 고속 변환이 가능함을 알 수 있었다.
