The data gathering delay and the network lifetime are important indicators to measure the service quality of wireless sensor and actuator networks (WSANs). This study proposes a dynamically cluster head (CH) selection strategy and automatic scheduling scheme of collectors for prolonging the network lifetime and shorting data gathering delay in WSAN. First the monitoring region is equally divided into several subregions and each subregion dynamically selects a sensor node as CH. These can balance the energy consumption of sensor node thereby prolonging the network lifetime. Then a task allocation method based on genetic algorithm is proposed to uniformly assign tasks to actuators. Finally the trajectory of each actuator is optimized by ant colony optimization algorithm. Simulations are conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method and the results show that the method performs better to extend network lifetime while also reducing data delay.

The use of the shape memory alloy, Nitinol wire, is investigated as an actuator for enhancing the damping in structural vibration systems. The first-order mathematical model of the Nitinol wire is obtained from the experimental data for an actuator. Finite element method is utilized for the strain gage sensor model, which is installed at the root of cantilever beam. A simple system, cantilever beam, is built as a flexible structural system to implement a control law with the Nitinol wire actuator. The system model including sensor and actuator is derived, which agrees with the experimental results. The actuator dynamics is augmented with the system so as to design PI controller and the one of robust controllers, LQG/LTR controller, and the control laws are implemented experimentally. The experimental study shows the feasibility of utilizing the Nitinol wire as an actuator for the purpose of vibration control.

인공위성에 사용되는 센서들의 장착 방향은 보통 방향코사인행렬로 구현되어 있다. 이 방향코사인행렬의 극성검증을 위해서는 센서에 알고 있는 외부 자극을 인가하여 출력되는 응답을 확인하는 방법이 사용된다. 그러나 자이로 센서의 경우에는 인위적인 외부 자극 없이 지구 자전에 의한 회전각속도가 방향코사인행렬의 극성검증을 위한 입력으로 사용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 인공위성의 조립 및 시험 단계에서 여러 번 수행되는 자이로 센서의 상태점검 시험결과를 이용하여 자이로 센서의 방향코사인행렬 극성검증을 수행하였다.

In this paper, we introduce a canonical framework of the large-scaled web-based sensor gateway and practically implement it as the environment monitoring system. The system consists of a central management server, up to 250 local embedded subsystems and up to 250 sensor or actuator nodes for each subsystem. The node information is gathered periodically through a well-defined protocol on the sensor network and converted to the web contents and the SNMP MIB objects according to its data type. The MIB objects are well-defined and include system, network, sensor, actuator and alarm specific data classes. Because there is an increasing trend that a large number of sites are willing to adapt unmanned sensing and control, the developed system will play a key role to efficiently manage a large scale sensor networked system such as environment monitoring systems or countermeasure systems against disaster and calamities.

무선 센서 엑츄에이터 네트워크(WSAN) 시스템은 기존의 무선 센서 네트워크(WSN)에서 엑츄에이터 기능을 추가한 센서 노드들을 연결하여 망을 구성하는 시스템이다. 엑츄에이터는 센서 노드와 함께 작동하며, 재난구호, 군용 감시체계, 건강 모니터링 및 기반시설 보안 등의 여러 응용분야에 적용된다. 이러한 응용분야는 적시에 정확하게 작동하여 데이터를 신뢰성 있게 전달하는 능력이 요구된다. 생물학적으로 영감을 받은 모델링 기법은 개별적인 단순함을 유지하면서 동시에 강인성과 확장성, 적응성을 달성할 수 있는 기법으로 최근 상당한 관심을 받아오고 있다. 본 논문에서는 생물학적 메커니즘 중 전염병 전파 모델을 기반으로 이산 동적 모델을 제안하고 WSAN 시스템에 적용하고자 한다. 이를 위해 에너지 소모를 최소화하면서 동시에 시간지연 구속조건을 갖는 데이터 전파를 위한 노드 스케줄링 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법의 평형 상태 분석과 제어이론을 바탕으로 시스템의 안정성을 분석한 후 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 요구 지연 시간을 만족하는 동시에 에너지 소모를 줄이는 성능을 검증한다.

The performance evaluation of AOV(air-operated valve) requires the processes to confirm the actuator system capability. It is necessary to evaluate the thrust of the air actuator for the margin evaluation. In this paper, to evaluate and analysis the air actuator, the performance test system and operating program are developed. This system is composed of several sensors such as pressure sensor, LVDT, and LoadCell which are used to get the data for evaluation. The LabVIEW was used for developing the operating program. The test system and operating program are proved through the actual test of the diaphragm actuator.

The authors' research efforts recently led to the development of a customized wireless control unit which receives the real-time feedbacks from the sensors, and elaborates the consequent control signal to drive the actuator(s). The controller is wireless in performing the data transmission task, i.e., it receives the signals from the sensors without the need of installing any analogue cable connection between them, but it is powered by wire. The actuator also needs to be powered by wire. In this framework, the design of a power management unit is of interest only for the wireless sensor stations, and it should be adaptable to different kind of sensor requirements in terms of voltage and power consumption. In the present paper, the power management efficiency is optimized by taking into consideration three different kinds of accelerometers, a load cell, and a non-contact laser displacement sensor. The required voltages are assumed to be provided by a power harvesting solution where the energy is stored into a capacitor.
