To design a controller based on the pole placement method, it is necessary to obtain either a target transfer function or a desired characteristic equation which results in the closed-loop response. Specially, a step response in which no overshoot occurs in highly desirable in many applications. In this paper, we present two new present two new prototypes of Type I target transfer functions whose step responses have an overshoot of less than 0.1%. One prototype is obtained by Taylor's approximation of a Gaussian function. It is, however, observed that the response delays increase with increasing order, while the rise times are nearly constant. The other prototype is a modification of the first prototype, so that their transfer function coefficients have particular values in terms of specific parameters ${\gamma}$i and $\tau$ (see section 2). The second prototype gives very useful properties in which step responses are almost the same shape, irrespective of the order. It, also, has no overshoot. Some other properties of the prototypes and an application example are given.

In this paper, a method for IMC-PID controller tuning is proposed based on obtaining a controller from closed-loop transfer function. It is considered a plant with the second-order plus dead time(SOPDT) model and selected the third-order plus dead time transfer function model as a target function. The filter function is derived from the suitable target function to satisfy the design specifications. A robustness test was done to verify the robust-stability.

This paper deals with a problem searching a target transfer function to meet the time-domain specifications for feedback system with given plant transfer function. For the Type I system, we first define three forms of transient response to unit step input, which are named by F, M, S-type. These are charaacterized as follows ; F-type has fast initial response and slow approach to the steady sate after reaching at 90% of the steady state value, S-type has slow initial response but fast approach to the steady state, and M-type is denoted by highly smooth response between F-type and S-type. Three prototypes corresponding to each form are proposed, time. For the order $n{\geq}4$, after determining admissible root structures of target characteristic polynomials empirically and expressing such polynomial coefficients by using special parameters ${\gamma}_i$ and $\epsilon$, the optimal prototypes that minimize the integral of the squared of the modified errors(ISME) have been obtained. Since the step responses of these prototypes have almost same wave forms irrespective to the order, the desired settling time or the rise time can be converted into the equibalent time constant $\tau$ and thus it is easy to obtain a target transfer function. It is shown through a design example that the present prototype is very useful for meeting the time-domain specifications and has been compared with different methods with a viewpoint of pertinence.

A time domain step response in which no overshoot occurs is demanded in many control application. Recently, Kim et al.[4,51 suggested some prototypes of target transfer functions of type I which can satisfy such a purpose. However, if a plant contains zeros more than one, then any output feedback control systems should have the same zeros in the closed-loop transfer function. In this paper, we propose two methods that choose the target transfer functions higher than Type I. These methods allow us to reduce the effect of zeros. It is shown through some examples that the proposed scheme can be effectively applied to the controller design problems with no overshoot.

It has been shown that the principal subspace-based multichannel Wiener filter (MWF) provides better performance than the conventional MWF for suppressing interference in the case of a single target source. It can efficiently estimate the target speech component in the principal subspace which estimates the acoustic transfer function up to a scaling factor. However, as the input signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) becomes lower, larger errors are incurred in the estimation of the acoustic transfer function by the principal subspace method, degrading the performance in interference suppression. In order to alleviate this problem, a principal subspace modification method was proposed in previous work. The principal subspace modification reduces the estimation error of the acoustic transfer function vector at low SIRs. In this work, a frequency-band dependent interpolation technique is further employed for the principal subspace modification. The speech recognition test is also conducted using the Sphinx-4 system and demonstrates the practical usefulness of the proposed method as a front processing for the speech recognizer in a distant-talking and interferer-present environment.

This paper deals with a defect classification technique that considers the structural characteristics of a refrigerant compressor. First, the pressure pulsation of the refrigerant flowing in the suction pipe of a normal compressor was measured at the same time as the acceleration of the shell surface, and then the transfer function between the two signals was estimated. Next, the frequency-weighted acceleration signals of the defect classification target compressors were generated using the estimated transfer function. The estimation of the variance of the transfer function is presented to formulate the frequency-weighted acceleration signals. The estimated frequency-weighted accelerations were applied to defect classification using frequency-domain features. Experiments were performed using commercial compressors to verify the technique. The results confirmed that it is possible to perform an effective defect classification of the refrigerant compressor by the shell surface acceleration of the compressor. The proposed method could make it possible to improve the total inspection performance for compressors in a mass-production line.

This paper describes an efficient optimal design method for an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) having MMI coupler with flattened transfer function. The objective function is the norm of the difference between calculated and target spectra. To analyze the AWG transfer function, the Fresnel-Kirchhof diffraction formula was employed and the design variable was optical path difference of each array waveguide. The (1+1) Evolution Strategy was applied to an eight-channel coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM) AWG as the optimization tool. For obtaining a broadened spectrum, we use a MMI coupler and the variation in optical path difference at each array waveguide changes the shape of the transfer function to obtain the optimal spectrum shape.

In this paper, the difference in modulation transfer function (MTF) results according to the change in the angle of a slant target when measuring a presampled MTF was confirmed, and the difference was reduced by fitting the edge spread function graph obtained to reduce the error by the target's rotation. Due to the feature of the presampled MTF method, the spatial frequency changed due to the sensor's projected intensity being changed by the target's rotation, and it was confirmed that the difference in the MTF value occurred depending on the rotation angle of the target. In this paper, the MTF was calculated after fitting only one column of the acquired image. It was confirmed that the rotation error is smaller compared to the case of the presampled MTF method and this fitting method can be applied to a scene that contains various target angles, such as auto-focusing using the MTF.
