  • The presence of joint elasticity or the arm flexibility causes low damped oscillatory position error along a desired trajectory. We utilize a stochastic model for describing the fast dynamics and the approximation error. A second order shaping filter is synthesized such that its spectrum matches that of the fast dynamics. Augmenting the state vector of slow part with that of shaping filter, we obtain a nonlinear dynamics to which a Gaussian white noise is injected. This modeling approach leads us to the design of an extended Kalman filter(KEF) and a linear quadratic Gaussian(LQG) control scheme. We present the simulation results of this control method. The simulation results show us that our Kalman filtering approach is one of prospective methods in controlling the flexible arms.

  • In many practical problems in signal processing and control, the signal values are often restricted to belong to a finite number of levels. These questions are generally referred to as "finite alphabet" problems. There are many applications of this class of problems including: on-off control, optimal audio quantization, design of finite impulse response filters having quantized coefficients, equalization of digital communication channels subject to intersymbol interference, and control over networked communication channels. This paper will explain how this diverse class of problems can be formulated as optimization problems having finite alphabet constraints. Methods for solving these problems will be described and it will be shown that a semi-closed form solution exists. Special cases of the result include well known practical algorithms such as optimal noise shaping quantizers in audio signal processing and decision feedback equalizers in digital communication. Associated stability questions will also be addressed and several real world applications will be presented.

  • A combination of deep drawing and cold forging process is tried to achieve near net shaping of automatic transmission part which has drum shape and thickness variation. It is key for successful shaping of the part to find out proper condition to combine two different forming methods. Finite element analysis can be utilized for that purpose effectively. Integrity, reliability, and durability of the part are improved by eliminating machining process. The developed process is applied in real manufacturing process successfully.

  • This experimental study was carried out to investigate the solidification characteristics of polystyrene added styronaphthalene pattern materials using various castability test methods. The styronaphthalene showed an excellent filling capacity and shaping behavior having about 0.2 mm meniscus radius. The shell thickness of styronaphthalene showing smooth wall at the solid/liquid interface increased with the increasing of polystyrene addition. The solidification microstructure of styronaphthalene showed a typical thin ribbon reinforced composite structure, which has fibrous amorphous skeleton of polystyrene and crystalline naphthalene. From the results of this study, it was found that the polystyrene added styronaphthalene showed a precision shaping behavior as disposable pattern material under the atmospheric condition.

  • This paper describes a high data rate proximity transmitter design for high resolution smartphone-mirrored display applications. A 2 Gb/s transmitter is designed with a low transmission power of -70 dBm/MHz and a wide bandwidth of nearly 3 GHz. A digital pre-correction method is employed in the transmitter to mitigate the inter-symbol interference problem. A carrier-based digital pulse shaping and a reconfigurable digital envelope generation methods are employed for robust operation by utilizing 20 phases from a 2 GHz phase-locked loop. A 6.5-9.5 GHz transmitter implemented in 65 nm CMOS achieves the maximum data rate of 2 Gb/s, consuming only 7.6 mW from a 1 V supply.

  • Collision avoidance is the most important part of a small vessel. Small and mediurn sized ships are surprisingly poor targets for radar reflection and are frequently in danger of being overrun by large vessels, even under good condition of visibility. One of the best way to prevent collisions at sea is to use as large and well designed a radar reflector. Thus, RCS(Radar Cross Section) increase is key element in the design of radar reflector. Radar Reflectors are normally classified into active-type and passive-type. In this paper, the RCS increase methods for passive-type reflector through shaping are explained, and analyzed with RCS performance test by computer simulation. As results from analysis, It is shown that the effective diameter of radar reflector is over 10 λ to provide a return above the threshold RCS of 25m$^2$, lower limit of detectability using X-band radar in a moderate sea.

  • Many methods have been Proposed to reduce the PAPR of the OFDM signal. Among them a method that uses the time waveform of the different sub-carriers. The method is referred to as pulse shaping and it works with arbitrary number of sub-carriers and my type of base-band linear modulation. It has been shown, using this technique, that it is possible to design a set of time waveforms that reduce the PAPR of the OFDM transmitted signal and improve its power spectrum simultaneously. In this paper, we investigate the effect of some of these sets of time waveforms on the OFDM system performance in terms of Bit Error Rate (BER).

  • In this paper, the optimal command input is considered in order to minimize the residual vibrations of a flexible cantilever beam when the beam simply changes its position by translation or rotation. Although a cantilever beam has many modes of vibration, it is shown that the consideration of the first mode is sufficient in this case. Thus, the problem becomes a single-degree-of-freedom system subjected to a ground excitation. Two simple methods are proposed to find the optimal command input based on the shock response spectrum (SRS). The first method is the simplest and can be applied to lightly damped cases, and the second method is applicable to more general problems. The second method gives almost the same results as the input shaping method. However the proposed method gives a easier and clearer control strategy.
