The whistle is a very important information source for the safety navigation under foggy weather. But navigator has no concern about this, because it must be achived by human hearing sense and considered as a vague signal. If the range and relative bearing of signal source can be detected automatically, it would be very useful system for preventing marine casualties making a lot of economic loss and environment pollution. Before the algorithm of 2-dimensional sound source tracking system was reported. This paper describes the method that can obtain the time lag between three signals and the theory of cross-correlation analysis and subtraction method for cauculating the time lag by using the digital signal data sequences. And a series of experiments were carried out for various position of sound source in the range from 200cm to 530cm. As a result, we have recognized that sound source tracking system is possible to the sea field with improvement of position error.

This study was carried out to evaluate the applicability of the odor source tracking using wind field and fingerprint as a solution tool. First of all, CALMET and HYSPLIT modeling system, and database of odor discharge companies were utilized to track odor from industrial complexes. Secondly, industrial odor fingerprint was made by listing on the 19 domestic industries, and compared with foreign data to assess the representative, and thus the similarity was 86.7%. On the modeling experiment, Sihwa industrial complex did not show any difference because the matching rates of day and night were 49.5% and 50.0%, respectively. However, the Banwol and Sihwa industrial complexes did show some differences due to odor facility density. Separately, in this study, odor samples were obtained from 10 odor discharging companies, located in the Sihwa and Banwol industrial complexes, They were compared with the results of odor tracking modeling. The matched companies were 4 of 10 by three cases of tracking, while the fingerprint and industry of odor monitoring networks and companies matched each other. Therefore, this study confirmed the approach applicability of source tracking system using the fingerprint.

Most of life thing including human being have tendency of reaction with inherently their own pattern against environmental change caused by such as light, sound, smell etc. Especially, a sense of direction often works as a very important factor in such reaction. Actually, human or animal lift that can react instantly to a stimulus determine their action with a sense of direction to a stimulant. In this paper, we try to propose how to give a sense of direction to a robot using sound being representative stimulant, and tracking sensors being able to detect the direction of such sound source. We also try to propose how to determine the relative directions among devices or robots using the digital compass and the RSSI on wireless network.

불법 무인기에 의한 위협을 줄이기 위해, 음향 기반 기법에 의한 추적시스템을 구현하였다. 드론 음향 추적 방식에는 3가지 주요 사항이 있다. 첫째, 가변 빔 형성을 통해 공간을 스캔하여 음원을 찾아 마이크 어레이를 사용하여 소리를 녹음한다. 둘째, 음원의 존재 유·무 여부를 알기 위해 은닉 마르코프 모델(HMM)로 분류한다. 마지막으로 음원이 드론인 경우, 적응형 빔 패턴을 기반의 추적기준 신호로 기록 및 저장된 음원을 사용한다. 시뮬레이션은 배경 노이즈 및 간섭 사운드가 없는 이상적인 상태와 배경 노이즈 및 간섭 사운드가 있는 비이상적인 조건 모두에서 수행되며 불법적인 드론의 추적 성능을 평가하였다. 드론 추적 시스템은 마이크 어레이 성능에 따른 탐색 거리 성능향상 및 음향 패턴 일치 정도에 따른 드론 유무 판정 기준을 설계하여 음성판독 회로설계에 반영하였다.

To follow a sound source by a mobile robot, the relative position and orientation of the sound source from the mobile robot have been estimated using a microphone array. In this research, the difference among the traveling times of the sound source to each of three microphones has been used to calculate the distance and orientation of the sound source from the mobile robot which carries the microphone array. The cross-correlation between two signals has been applied for detecting the time difference between two signals, which provides reliable and precise value of the time difference comparing to the conventional methods. To generate the tracking direction to the sound source, fuzzy rules are applied and the results are used to control the mobile robot in a real-time. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm has been demonstrated through the real experiments comparing to the conventional approaches.

Heliostat sun tracking accuracy could be the most important requirement in solar thermal power plant, since it determines the overall efficiency of power plant. This study presents the effect of geometrical errors on the heliostat sun tracking performance. The geometrical errors considered here are the mirror canting error, encoder reference error, heliostat position error. pivot offset and tilt error, gear backlash and mass unbalanced effect error. We first investigate the effect of each individual geometrical error on the sun tracking accuracy. Then, the sun tracking error caused by the combination of individual geometrical error is computed and analyzed. The results obtained using the solar ray tracing technique shows that the sun tracking error due to the geometrical error is varying almost randomly. It also shows that the mirror canting error is the most significant error source, while the encoder reference error and gear backlash are second and the third dominant source of errors.

구(sphere)형의 섬광체를 사용한 방사선 스펙트로스코피 검출기를 설계하였고, 여러 대의 검출기를 사용하여 방사선원의 위치를 추적하는 시스템을 개발하였다. 방사선원의 위치 추적은 방사선의 수는 거리의 역자승 법칙에 따라 감소하는 이론을 바탕으로 위치 추적 알고리듬을 설계하였으며, 여러 위치의 방사선원에서 발생된 방사선의 수를 측정하여 알고리듬을 통해 위치를 계산하였다. 방사선원에서 발생되는 방사선은 각 검출기에서 서로 다른 계수로 검출되며, 이러한 검출되는 계수의 차이는 거리의 역자승에 비례하여 달라진다. 설계한 방사선원 위치 추적 시스템의 성능을 검증 및 평가하기 위해 Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission (GATE) 시뮬레이션을 실시하였으며, 서로 다른 위치에 놓이 방사선원에서 발생된 방사선을 각 검출기로 계수하였다. 측정된 방사선의 수는 방사선원 위치 추적 알고리듬을 통해 위치가 추적되었으며, 실제 방사선원의 위치와 알고리듬으로 계산된 위치와의 오차를 평가하였다. 실제 방사선원의 위치와 계산된 위치와의 오차는 평균 X축 0.11%, Y축 0.37%로 측정되었으며, 매우 정확하게 위치를 측정할 수 있음이 검증되었다.

Multipath is an inevitable error source in radio navigation system such as GPS, it causes signal tracking errors such as carrier tracking errors, code tracking errors. Since code tracking error is a dominant error in absolute positioning, this paper focuses on the improvement of code tracking performance. This paper proposes a method that detects the change of autocorrelation function's slope and mitigates the multipath error. Also, this paper shows the performance evaluation results by post-processing the digitized RF samples.

This paper presents a localization system based on the use of electric compass and tracking IR light source. Digital RGB(Red, Green, Blue)signal of digital CMOS Camera is sent to CPLD which converts the color image to binary image at 30 frames per second. CMOS camera has IR filter and UV filter in front of CMOS cell. The filters cut off above 720nm light source. Binary output data of CPLD is sent to DSP that rapidly tracks the IR light source by moving Camera tilt DC motor. At a robot toward north, electric compass signals and IR light source angles which are used for calculating the data of the location system. Because geomagnetic field is linear in local position, this location system is possible. Finally, it is shown that position error is within ${\pm}1.3cm$ in this system.
