This paper presents a new velocity estimation strategy for a non-salient permanent magnet synchronous motor drive without high frequency signal injection or special PWM pattern. This approach is based on the d-axis current regulator output voltage of the drive system, which contains the rotor position error information. The rotor velocity can be estimated through a rotor position tracking PI controller that controls the position error at zero. For zero and low speed operation, the PI gain of the rotor position tracking controller has a variable structure according to the estimated rotor velocity. Then, at zero speed, the rotor position and velocity have sluggish dynamics because the varying gains are very low in this region. In order to boost the bandwidth of the PI controller during zero speed, the loop recovery technique is applied to the control system. The PI tuning formulas are also derived by analyzing this control system by frequency domain specifications such as phase margin and bandwidth assignment.

Accurate and reliable tracking of train is essential for the train control system. The fixed block system which utilizes track circuit has been used widely for the detection of train position. As an alternative, the moving block system has the advantage over the fixed block system since it enables shorter headway and easier maintenance. This paper presents a new technique for the train tracking system which uses radio signal for the train position detection. The proposed algorithm uses the phase difference of arrival of radio signal for the detection of train position. Experimental verification of the algorithm is presented in the paper.

GPS를 기반으로 하는 무인항공기 추적 안테나 시스템은 일정한 주기를 가지고 위치정보를 갱신하는 특성이 있으며 이로 인하여 갱신 주기에 따른 위치 오차가 발생한다. 위치오차를 줄이기 위해 GPS의 갱신 주기를 시분할 하여 분할된 시점의 위치를 예측 하고 이를 이용하여 무인항공기를 추적할 수 있도록 하였다. 무인항공기의 위치를 예측하기 위해서 속도와 가속도 기반의 선형 칼만 필터를 사용하였으며 이를 이용하여 무인항공기의 속도와 가속도를 측정하였고 시간의 변화에 따른 위치변화를 예측한다.

The work presented here is a design and development of sun tracking system for the parabolic dish concentrator. Parabolic dish concentrator is mounted on azimuth and elevation tracking mechanism, and controlled to track the sun with computed and measured sun positions. Sun tracking mechanism is composed of 1/30000 speed reducer(3 stages) and 400W AC servomotor for each axis. The nominal tracking speed of each axis is ${\pm}0.6^{\circ}/sec$ and the system has a driving range of $340^{\circ}$ in azimuth and of $135^{\circ}$ in elevation. Sun tracking control system consists of sun sensor, wind speed and direction measurement system, AC servomotor position control system and personal computer as a master controller. Sun sensor detects the sun located within ${\pm}50^{\circ}$ measured from the sun sensor normal direction. Computer computes the sun position, sunrise and sunset times and controls the orientation of parabolic dish concentrator through the AC servomotor position control system. It also makes a decision of whether the system should follow the sun or not based on the information collected from sun sensor and wind speed and direction measurement system. The sun tracking system developed in this work is implemented for the experimental work and shows a good sun tracking performance.

이 논문은 선적 및 하역 작업을 위해 겐추리 크레인으로 들어오는 컨테이너 트레일러의 위치 추적 시스템에 대하여 기술한다. 위치 추적 시스템은 트레일러가 겐추리 크레인에 접근하였을 때 트레일러의 정지 지점을 운전자에게 알려준다. 위치 측정 센서는 RF 신호와 초음파 방식을 채택한 크리켓 mote 모듈을 사용하였다. 실시간 전송을 위해 위치 측정 주기를 단축하였으며 삼각측량 방법에 따른 3 차원 위치 계산식과 환경적 요인에 의한 거리 측정 오류 감소 방법을 제시하였다. 측정된 위치는 블루투스 통신을 통해 주기적으로 운전자 앞의 PDA (Personal Digital Assistant)에 전송된다. 실내외 테스트 결과 위치 오류는 3 cm 이내로 개선되었으며 위치 측정 표시 주기는 평균 0.5초였다.

This paper utilizes an optimal control law for the accurate tracking servo system design. The devivation of a simple control law implementing microprocessor is made to minimize position and speed error of the controller. The 16 bit microprocessor receives command angular position and calculate the control algorithm for accurate tracking and provides control system gain scheduling to achieve very short settling time. Simulation results and some experimental results of the position controlled tracking using 4.5Kw DC servo motor are shown.

The maritime industry is expanding at an alarming rate and as such there is a perpetual need to improve situation awareness in the maritime environment using new and emerging technology. Tracking is one of the numerous ways of enhancing situation awareness by providing information that may be useful to the operator. The tracking system described herein comprises determining existing states of own ship, state prediction and state compensation caused by random noise. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the process of tracking and develop a tracking algorithm by using ${\alpha}-{\beta}-{\gamma}$ tracking filter under a random noise or irregular motion for use in a warship. The algorithm involves initializing the input parameters of position, velocity and course. The actual positions are then computed for each time interval. In addition, a weighted difference of the observed and predicted position at the nth observation is added to the predicted position to obtain the smoothed position. This estimation is subsequently employed to determine the predicted position at (n+1). The smoothed values, predicted values and the observed values are used to compute the twice distance root mean square (2drms) error as a measure of accuracy of the tracking module.

Tracking micro-sized insects is one of the challenges of protecting ecosystems and biodiversity. In this study, we propose an approach for the autonomous tracking of micro-sized flying insects, and develop an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based robotic system. The Kalman filter is applied to the received signal strength emitted from radio telemetry to estimate the position while reducing the measurement error and noise. The autonomous tracking strategy is a method in which the UAV rotates at one point to measure the signal strength and control its position in the strongest direction of the signal. We also design a system architecture comprising a tracking sensor system and a UAV system for micro-sized insects. The estimation and autonomous tracking of the target position by the proposed system are verified and evaluated through dynamic simulation. Therefore, in this study, we propose and validate a UAV-based tracking system for micro-sized flying insects, which has not been proposed in studies conducted thus far.

When the teleoperation system has a signal transmission time delay between slave system and control system, the position tracking performance of the slave system and system stability are likely to be deteriorated. This paper proposes a force reflecting position control scheme for teleoperation system with signal transmission time delay. The proposed scheme not only satisfy the system internal stability but also improves the position tracking performance with disturbance rejection capability. The simulation results show that the proposed control method provides excellent performances.
