We propose a system time synchronization method between embedded Linux-based distributed control devices by using Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) communication and General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) device. The GPIO signal is used as the trigger signal for synchronization and the TCP communication is used to transfer the system time of master Linux, which serves as the reference clock, to slave Linux. Precise synchronization performance is achieved by measuring and compensating for the propagation delay of GPIO signal and the acquisition and setting latency of Linux system time. We build an experimental setup consisting of two embedded Linux systems, and perform extensive experiments to verify the performance of the proposed synchronization method.

BESS를 대용량화 하기 위하여 병렬운전에 관련하여 많은 연구가 진행 중이다. 병렬운전 알고리즘의 제어 목표는 인버터 간의 순환전류를 제거하고, 부하 분담이 균등하게 하는 것에 있다. 이를 위하여 연구되었던 방법 중 전압 제어와 전류 제어의 인버터를 결합한 Master-Slave 방식은 통신을 통하여 정확한 부하분담이 가능하지만 통신지연 발생시 과도상태에 과전류가 발생 할 수 있다는 단점을 갖는다. 본 논문은 독립된 계통에서 BESS가 병렬운전 중 스텝부하 투입시 통신지연 시간 동안의 과도상태에서 과전류가 발생하지 않도록 하는 Droop Control를 적용한 제어 알고리즘을 제안한다.

Digital communication networks have become a core technology in advanced building automation systems. BACnet(${\underline{B}}uilding$ ${\underline{A}}utomation$ and ${\underline{C}}ontrol$ ${\underline{net}}works$) is a standard data communication protocol designed specifically for building automation and control systems. BACnet adopts Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MS/TP) protocol as one of its field level networks. In this study, we introduce a method of implementing bandwidth allocation scheme in the MS/TP protocol. The bandwidth allocation scheme improves the capability of real-time communication of the original MS/TP protocol. The bandwidth allocation scheme introduced in this paper can be easily implemented in the existing MS/TP protocol with a slight modification. In this study, we actually developed the hardware and firmware of MS/TP module in which bandwidth allocation scheme is implemented.

Despite its superior braking performance to conventional vehicles on test tracks, the performance of the ABS-equipped car seems disappointing on real highway. The poor braking performance results from questionable design of the human-machine interface(HMI) of the brake system. Force-displacement relation at the brake pedal has a strong effect on the braking performance. Recently developed brake-by-wire (BBW) system may allow us to tailor the force feel at the brake pedal. This study aims at exploring analytical ways of designing human-machine interface of BBW system. In this paper, mathematical models of brake pedal feel for electro-hydraulic BBW (EH-BBW) system are developed, and the braking motion and the characteristics of the driver's leg action are modeled. Based on the dynamic characteristics of the brake pedal and the driver, two new HMI designs for EH-BBW system are proposed. In the designs, BBW system is modeled as a type of master-slave teleoperator. The effectiveness of the proposed designs is investigated using driving simulation.

This paper presents synchronization of bilateral teleoperation system with time delay using genetic algorithm. In general, bilateral teleoperation system has two main goals; stability and transparency. In the presence of time delay between the master and the slave, we guarantee stability, and optimize the parameter of synchronization control law using genetic algorithm.

In this paper, we have proposed a realization method of tactile sense of virtual objects using multi-layer Neural Networks(NN). Inputs of the NN are position data of non-rigid objects and outputs of the NN are forces at that time and point. First, the position and forte data are measured from non-rigid objects (a sponge and a balloon) using two PHANToMS, one as a master and the other as a slave manipulator, then the data are used to train a multi-layer Neural Networks whose inputs and outputs are designed to represent tactile information. The trained Neural Networks is used to regenerate the tactile sense on the virtual objects graphically made by a computer, and one can feel a quite similar sense of touch by using the system while touching the virtual objects.

In this paper, a multiple-output converter using a coupledinductor is proposed. The Asymmetrical Half-Bridge Converter (AHBC), which is used as a master converter, obtains ZVS in the primary side switches. For the tight output voltage regulation of the slave output, the Secondary Side Post Regulator (SSPR) is adopted. The proposed magnetically coupled output filter inductor reduces the number of semi-conductor devices and magnetic components. Also, the circuit enables ZCS off switching in the SSPR MOSFET and rectifying diodes. The modes of operation which are caused by the coupled-inductor and post regulator are explained. The analyzed modes of operation of the proposed multiple-output converter are verified by the simulation and experimental results.

정보통신의 급속한 발전으로 다양한 정보의 요구는 기존 유선 서비스 환경에서 개인 중심의 무선 서비스 환경으로 변화하고 있다. 그 중에서도 최근 근거리 무선 통신의 중심으로 주목받고 있는 Bluetooth는 이러한 사용자의 요구에 의해 발생되어 많은 연구가 진행중에 있다. 본 논문에서는 Bluetooth Master와 Slave로 이루어진 하나의 작은 네트워크인 piconet 형성에서부터 유지까지의 보안적 취약점을 분석한 뒤 이를 기반으로 ECC를 적용한 보다 안전하면서 효율적인 Bluetooth piconet 형성 과정 및 유지 과정을 제안하였다.

본 논문은 하나의 제어 IC로 이중출력 각각 독립 제어가 가능한 LLC 공진형 컨버터를 제안한다. 기존의 이중출력 LLC 공진형 컨버터의 경우 master 출력전압만 제어가 가능하므로, slave 출력의 정밀제어를 위해 별도의 DC/DC 컨버터가 필요하며, 이는 시스템의 전력 변환 효율을 떨어뜨리고 제작단가를 증가시키는 단점이 있다. 반면, 제안된 회로는 LLC 공진형 컨버터의 이중출력을 하나의 제어 IC로 주파수 및 시비율 각각 가변하는 방식으로 개별적 제어가 가능하므로 부하 및 입력전압 조건과 무관하게 모든 출력 전압의 제어를 정밀하게 할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 따라서 별도의 DC/DC 컨버터 사용이 불필요하므로 고효율 및 저가격의 특징을 가질 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 회로의 타당성 검증을 위해 이론적 분석결과를 제시하고 40W급 LED 조명회로에 적용한 실험 결과를 바탕으로 그 우수성을 확인한다.
