  • Consideration for parallel operation in a high power system has been increased due to the advantages of parallel operation like as high productivity, simplicity of design, and redundancy of power. Based on the small signal model of DC-DC Converter, the simple and exact power stage model of parallel operation system is derived and the parallel operation system using current balance method for the uniform current distribution among the parallel operation system is proposed. Using Simulation programs, which consists of nonidentical Converter modules and changes the position of master and slave automatically, the current distribution error is kept within the limit in the parallel operation system. To verify the high performance of the proposed Converter system for parallel operation, the parallel operation test, which has 2 Converter modules of 1 kW, is accomplished. Also, the simulation result is good agreement with the experiment result in the transient and starting characteristics.

  • Remote handling manipulators are widely used for performing hazardous tasks, and it is essential to ensure the reliable performance of such systems. Toward this end, tendon-driven mechanisms are adopted in such systems to reduce the weight of the distal parts of the manipulator while maintaining the handling performance. In this study, several approaches for the design of a gripper system for a tendon-driven remote handling system are introduced. Basically, this gripper has an underactuated spring mechanism that is combined with a slave manipulator triggered by a master operator. Based on the requirements under the specified tendon-driven mechanism, the connecting position of the spring system on the gripper mechanism and kinematic influence coefficient (KIC) analysis are performed. As a result, a suitable combination of components for the proper design of the target system is presented and verified.

  • Support for the precise time synchronization of EtherCAT, known as distributed clock (DC), enables the design of highly synchronized operations in distributed real-time systems. This study evaluates the performance of the EtherCAT DC through extensive experiments in a real automation system. We constructed an EtherCAT control system using Xenomai and IgH EtherCAT stack, and analyzed the clock deviation for different devices in the network. The results of the evaluation revealed that the accuracy of the synchronized clock is affected by several factors such as the number of slave devices, period of drift compensation, and type of system time base. In particular, we found that careful decision regarding the system time base is required because it has a fundamental effect on the master operation, which results in significantly different performance characteristics.

  • This paper presents a design and implementation of realtime video player that operates on a tiled-display system consisting of multiple PCs to provide a very large and high resolution display. In the proposed system, the master process transmits a compressed video stream to multiple PCs using UDP multicast. All slaves(PC) receive the same video stream, decompress, clip their designated areas from the decompressed video frame, and display it to their displays while being synchronized with each other. A simple synchronization mechanism based on the H/W clock of each slave is proposed to avoid the skew between the tiles of the display, and a flow-control mechanism based on the bit-rate of the video stream and a pre-buffering scheme are proposed to prevent the jitter The proposed system is implemented with Microsoft DirectX filter technology in order to decouple the video/audio codec from the player.

  • Clock Synchronization is one of the most basic factors to be considered when we implement an indoor synchronization network for indoor positioning. In this paper, we present a new synchronization algorithm which does not employ time stamps in order to reduce the hardware complexity and data overhead. In addition to that, we describe an algorithm that is designed to compensate the frequency drift giving an serious impact on the synchronization performance. The performance evaluation of the proposed algorithm is achieved by investigating MTIE (Maximum Time Interval Error) values through simulations. In the simulations, the frequency drift values of the practical oscillators are used. From the simulation results, it is investigated that we can achieve the synchronization performance under 10 ns when we use 1 second synchronization interval with 1 ns resolution and TCXOs (Tmperature Compensated Cristal Oscillators) both in the master clock and the slave clock.

  • In this paper, a simplified Cubature Kalman Filter (SCKF) is proposed to reduce the computation load of CKF, which is then used as a filter for transfer alignment of shipboard INS. CKF is an approximate Bayesian filter that can be applied to non-linear systems. When an initial estimation error is large, convergence characteristic of the CKF is more stable than that of the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), and the reliability of the filter operation is more ensured than that of the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF). However, when a system degree is large, the computation amount of CKF is also increased significantly, becoming a burden on real-time implementation in embedded systems. A simplified CKF is proposed to address this problem. This filter is applied to shipboard inertial navigation system (INS) transfer alignment. In the filter design for transfer alignment, measurement type and measurement update rate should be determined first, and if an application target is a ship, lever-arm problem, flexure of the hull, and asynchronous time problem between Master Inertial Navigation System (MINS) and Slave Inertial Navigation System (SINS) should be taken into consideration. In this paper, a transfer alignment filter based on SCKF is designed by considering these problems, and its performance is validated based on simulations.

  • Research and development are being conducted to apply low-power Bluetooth (BLE) technology to IoT (Internet of Things) applications. The characteristic of this application environment is that many piconets can operate in the same space. Therefore, interference between homogeneous networks is likely to occur. In the BLE data channel, adaptive frequency hopping (AFH) scheme is used among the 37 frequency channels, and the master and the slave communicate while changing the carrier frequency. If there are multiple BLE piconets in the same space, there is a risk of frequency collision and packet errors will occur. In this paper, we analyze the packet collision probability due to cochannel interference in multiple asynchronous BLE piconet environments. Specifically, we analyzed packet collision probability according to the number of concurrently operating BLE piconets with the ratio of connection interval to connection event length as the main parameters. The analysis result can be used to set connection event related parameters for a desired packet collision probability according to the number of users having BLE devices in a given space.

  • Domain Name System(DNS), one of the most important Internet services, handles mapping from host names to Internet addresses and vice versa, and precedes many Internet applications such as Web, e-mail, file transfer, etc. In this paper, we propose a structural design of a generic name server system providing name services for a huge domain for the purpose of improving the performance as well as the reliability of the system. We demonstrate the validity of the design by implementing and running a testbed system. Our testbed employs a couple of master name sowers for distributing the service overhead over two, rather than one, servers and for achieving high availability of the system as a whole. We suggest the use of dynamic update to add and delete records from a zone for which the name server has authority. The slave name servers located remotely then get a new, updated copy of the zone via incremental zone transfers(IXFRs). The experiments with the implemented testbed show that the proposed structure would easily manage increasing demands on the server power, and be highly available in the face of transient faults of a module in the system.
