본 논문에서는 비선형 특성을 갖는 센서 배열을 사용하는 시스템에서, 센서 배열에 soft computing을 이용하여 선형적인 특성을 얻고, 배열의 특성을 이용하여 외란의 영향을 감소시켜 시스템의 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제안한다. 대표적인 예로 배열에 사용된 광전도 센서인 CdS는 단일 CdS 셀 조차도 비선형적인 특성을 갖고 있기 때문에 비선형 특성을 소속 함수로 표현하는 퍼지 변수를 사용한다. 배열로 사용되는 센서에 각 단일 센서의 소속 함수와 특성을 이용하는 퍼지 논리를 적용하여 전체적으로 선형화된 센서 특성을 얻는다. 각 센서의 비선형적 요소를 표현하는 소속함수의 파라미터들에 유전 알고리즘을 사용하여 최적화 된 선형 특성을 얻어 시스템의 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다. 또한 보정을 위한 센서를 추가하지 않고 센서 배열의 특성을 이용하여 광전도 센서가 민감한 영향을 받는 외란을 보정하여 시스템의 외란 제거 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다. CdS 센서 배열의 자체 비선형성 뿐만 아니라 입력되는 물체의 그림자는 경계가 뚜렷하지 않고 흐릿하므로 퍼지 논리를 이용하는 방법이 거리측정과 외부 광원에 의한 외란에 대해 향상된 결과를 보인다. 제안된 방법을 적용한 센서 배열을 자기부상(Magnetic Levitation System)에서 볼의 거리 측정에 적용하여 성능을 검증한다.

The need for position information in agriculture is gradually increasing for precise control farm vehicle and effective manage farm land. Though geomagnetic sensor has a lot of merits in estimating heading angle of vehicle because of low costs and sensing ability of magnetic north, it is easy that sensor outputs are distorted in electro magnetic field environment. This study was conducted to develop geomagnetic compass which could be available in measuring relative position from reference point correcting output distorted by external electro magnetic field in a small scale field. Magnetic inducing sensor (PNI's Vector2X) which wound enamel coated copper coil on ferrite core in order to measure and correct earth magnetic field. Magnetic azimuth was corrected using the algorithm which estimated amount of magnetic distortion from the difference between each outputs of magnetic sensors that located on the cross shaped base. Developed auto-tuning magnetic sensor was showed less then 5% as bearing accuracy in the strong magnetic field.

Impact is the most common type of dynamic loading conditions that give rise to impulsive forces and affects the vibrational characteristics of mechanical systems . Since the real impact force and acceleration at the contact surface are measured indirectly through the sensors, the measured outputs can be a little different from the real impact responses. In this study, the contact force model based on the Hertz law is proposed in order to predict the impact force correctly. To investigate the influence of the position of the sensor attached to the impacting bodies, the two kinds of sensors were used. Finally, the contact force model obtained by drop test was applied to predict the impact force between the moving part and the stopper in magnetic contactor.

Due to the low localization accuracy and the requirement of special infrastructure, current LBS(Localization Based Service) is limited to show P.O.I.(Point of Interest) nearby. Improvement of IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit) based deadreckoning is presented in this paper. Additional sensors such as the magnetic compass and magnetic flux sensors are used as well as the accelerometer and the gyro for getting more information of movement. Based on the pedestrian movement, appropriate sensor information is selected and the complementary filter is used in order to enhance the accuracy of the localization.

Three dimensional joint motion data were obtained using precise magnetic sensors and X-ray. Six metal markers were inserted on the femur and the tibia to set the coordinate system. Two magnetic position sensors were used to record motion data and these positions were transformed into the knee motion. The quadriceps muscle was extended in an automatic manner by an extraction machine. Results of the knee motion were the same as the clinical data. The proposed method is found to be reasonable in describing the knee motion so that these motion data can be used to simulate the normal knee joint.

A magnetic levitation control system is inherently nonlinear and very unstable. Thus there should be a stabilizing compensator network and a negative feedback path using noncontact photoresistor or ultrasonic sensors for the levitation operation. Since the photo sensor plays a key role in the system, the steady-state error and transient performance of the overall system depend on the characteristics of the sensors. But the sensor itself also suffers from nonlinearity, and the magnitude of sensor input heavily depends on environmental conditions. To improve the output performance, we added a linearizing circuit for the sensor characteristics and a disturbance cancelation circuit to avoid sensitive output due to extraneous interfering light.

Rogowski coil which detects magnetic flux on current changes. It is used for digital integration with watt-hour meter's current sensor, because, Rogowski coil has non-cored or non-magnetic core structure, so that, it cannot be saturated magnetically. This is a study for inventing accurate electric current sensors that have been applied on multi-layer ceramic substrate. We have confirmed its properties from each different layer's materials and pattern sizes by MWS 3D Electromagnetic field analysis program. And, after sensor manufacturing on multi-layer ceramic substrate, we confirmed its sensing quality is reliable as accurate electric current sensor for watt-hour meter.

For monitoring of the civil and building structure, optical fiber sensors are very convenient. The fiber sensors are very small and do not disturb the structural properties. They also have several merits such as electro-magnetic immunity, long signal transmission, good accuracy and multiplexibility in one sensor line. Strain measurement technologies with fiber optic sensors have been investigated as a part of smart structure. In this paper, we investigated the possibilities of fiber optic sensor application to the monitoring of beam-column joints of structures. We expect that the fiber optic sensors replace electrical strain gauges. The commercial electric strain gauges show good stability and dominate the strain measurement market. However, they lack durability and long term stability for continuous monitoring of the structures. In order to apply the strain gauges, we only have to attach them to the surfaces of the structures. In this paper, we investigate the possibility of using fiber optic Bragg grating sensors to joint structure. The sensors show nice response to the structural behavior of the joint.
