단일 로봇을 이용한 물체의 운반은 제어대상이 하나이기 때문에 제어가 쉽다는 장점이 있다. 그러나 로봇의 크기에 비해 물체의 길이가 길어지거나 부피가 커지고 무게가 증가할 경우, 물체의 균형을 유지하기가 힘들고 로봇의 속도가 감소하는 등의 문제가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 페트리넷의 그래픽적인 모델링 방법을 이용하여 전체 작업을 모델링하여 로봇의 작업 상태를 쉽게 파악할 수 있도록 하였으며 명령체계상에서 발생할 수 있는 오류를 사전에 제거하려 하였다. 또한 시스템을 분산형 구조로 설계하여 시스템을 관리하는 별도의 시스템을 설정하지 않는 대신 퍼지 제어기를 이용하여 두 로봇의 협조 작업을 통해 물체를 운반할 경우 일어날 수 있는 애매한 상황에 대한 문제를 수학적인 모델링이 필요하지 않은 퍼지 제어기의 특성을 이용해 해결하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 8비트 마이크로 컨트롤러를 이용한 제어기를 여러 개를 다중 접속하여 구성한 분산형 방재 시스템을 제시하였다. 방재 시스템은 워크스테이션 또는 PC등의 호스트 시스템에 의하여 제어되며 호스트 시스템에 다수의 소형 제어기가 공통 통신 선에 의하여 연결된다. 각 제어기는 서로 다른 주소를 가지며 호스트 컴퓨터는 명령어 패킷에 특정 제어기의 주소를 첫 바이트로 실어 공통 통신 선으로 전송한다. 명령어 패킷의 주소에 해당하는 제어기는 명령어 패킷을 수신하여 입력상태를 호스트로 전송하고나 명령어에 따라 필요한 구동 출력을 발생하고 호스트로 자신의 주소를 포함한 응답 패킷을 전송한다. 서로 다른 주소를 이용하여 열 개의 제어기를 공통 통신 선으로 다중 접속함으로 분산형 방재 시스템을 구현하였다. 현재 방재 시스템의 동향은 분산형 방식으로 옮겨가는 추세이며 선로의 절약, 설치, 중설의 간편함과 함께 빌딩 자동화 시스템과 쉽게 연동하여 운영될 수 있다.

A cascaded hybrid multilevel inverter including a reconfiguration technique for low voltage dc distribution applications is proposed in this paper. A PWM generation fault detection and reconfiguration paradigm after an inverter cell fault are developed by using only a single-chip controller. The proposed PWM technique is also modified to reduce switching losses. In addition, the proposed topology can reduce the number of required power switches compared to the conventional cascaded multilevel inverter. The proposed technique is validated by using a 3-kVA prototype. The switching losses of the proposed multilevel inverter are also investigated. The experimental results show that the proposed hybrid inverter can improve system efficiency, reliability and cost effectiveness. The efficiency of proposed system is 97.45% under the tested conditions. The proposed hybrid inverter topology is a promising method for low voltage dc distribution and can be applied for the multiple loads which are required in a data center or telecommunication building.

In this paper, parallel control method that enables coordinating operations of multiple mini ice storage air conditioner is proposed based on LonWorks system. The proposed parallel control method is a kind of master/slave control method based on LonTalk network communication. In the control method, master controller leading whole system operations is determined by date to avoid the disproportion of outdoor unit operations. In addition to the above, duty shift control method is proposed to avoid redundant operations of outdoor units and to equalize the operation frequencies of them. Through some simulation tests, the proposed parallel control method and the duty shift control method are evaluated and the efficiencies of them are validated by comparing with existing methods.

In this study, as the preliminary step for developing an unmanned vehicle to deliver a container-box, we designed and implemented Automatic Guided Vehicle(AGV) Simulator for the purpose of Port Facilities Automation. It is preferable to research the intelligent AGV for delivery all day long. For complementing AGV simulator driving, we used multiple-sensor systems with vision, ultrasonic, IR and adapted the high-speed wireless LAN that satisfies the IEEE 802.11 Standard for bi-directional communication between main processor in AGV and Host computer. Here, we mounted on bottom frame in AGV Pentium-III processor, which combine and compute the information from each sensor system and control the AGV driving, and used the 80C196KC micro-controller to control the actuating and steering motors.

A high power U.P.S system utilizing the parallel connection of low power U.P.S is developed. For the purpose of elimination the circular current between U.P.S.s, a digital circuit is employed. Furthermore a double phase synchronization and an interphase reactor are used to eliminate the circular current and the voltage ripples caused by the system parameter unbalances of parall connected U.P.S.s. The digital controller is implemented with ADSP21061 as aspect of a functional convenience.

The parallel operation system of multiple UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply) is used to increase power capacity of the system or to secure higher reliability at critical loads. In the parallel operation of the two UPSs, the load sharing control to maintain the current balance between them is a matter of consequence. In this paper, a highly precise load sharing controller is proposed and implemented for the parallel operation system of two UPSs. After that, a good performance of the proposed method is verified by simulation in the parallel operation system with two UPSs.

This paper presents a simple approach for the selective harmonic elimination (SHE) of multilevel inverter based on the transistor-clamped H-bridge (TCHB) family. The SHE modulation is derived from the sinusoidal voltage-angle equal criteria corresponding to the optimized switching angles. The switching angles are computed offline by solving transcendental non-linear equations characterizing the harmonic contents using the Newton-Raphson method to produce an optimum stepped output. Simulation and experimental tests are conducted for verification of the analytical solutions. An Altera DE2 field-programmable gate array (FPGA) board is used as the digital controller device in order to verify the proposed SHE modulation in real-time applications. An analysis of the voltage total harmonic distortion (THD) has been obtained for multiple output voltage cases. In terms of the THD, the results showed that the higher the number of output levels, the lower the THD due to an increase number of harmonic orders being eliminated.

본 논문은 다중 모듈 통합형 태양광 발전 시스템의 발전 단가를 낮추기 위한 MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking) 방법에 관한 것이다. 기존의 다중 모듈 통합형 태양광 발전 시스템에서는 각 모듈마다 MPPT 동작을 필요로 하기 때문에 전류센서와 전압센서를 모두 사용하며, 이는 발전 단가를 상승시키는 원인 중 하나가 된다. 본 논문에서는 시스템의 제작비용을 낮추기 위하여 다중 모듈 통합형 태양광 발전 시스템에서 상대적으로 가격이 비싼 전류센서의 사용을 줄여, 여러 개의 모듈에서도 하나의 전류센서만을 사용하는 MPPT 방법을 제안하고 PSIM 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 입증하고자 한다.

This paper presents a robust hybrid control system for seismic response control of a cable-stayed bridge. Because multiple control devices are operating, a hybrid control system could alleviate some of restirctions and limitations that exist when each system is acting alone. A LQG algorithm with on-off control scheme, H$_2$ and H$_{\infty}$ control algorithms with various frequency weighting filters are used to improve the controller robustness of the active control part in the hybrid control system. The numerital simulation results show that control performances of robust hybrid control systems are similar to those of the hybrid control system with LQG algorithm. Furthermore, it is verified that robust hybrid control systems are more robust than the hybrid control system with LQG algorithm and there are no signs of instabilities in the $\pm$5％ stiffness matrix perturbed system. Therefore, the proposed hybrid control system have a good robustness for stiffness matrix perturbation without loss of control effectiveness.
