The most important thing in the container terminal is to handle the cargo effectively in a limited time. To achieve this objective, many strategies have been introduced and applied. If we consider the automated container terminal, it is necessary that the cargo handling equipment is equipped with more intelligent control systems. From the middle of the 1990s, an automated rail-mounted gantry crane (RMGC) and rubber-tired gantry crane (RTG) have been developed and widely used to handle containers in the yards. Recently, in these cranes, equipment like CCD cameras and sensors have been mounted to cope with the automated terminal environment. In this paper, we try to support the development of more intelligent automated cranes that make the cargo handling be performed effectively in the yards. For this plant, we ought to consider modeling, tracking control, anti-sway system design, skew motion suppressionand complicated motion control and suppressing problems. In this paper, the system modeling and a tracking control approach are discussed, based on a two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) servo-system design. From the simulation results, the good control performance of the designed control system is evaluated.

A digital series-feedback compensator algorithm for tracking time-varying signal is presented. The series-feedback compensator is composed of one closed loop pole / zero cancellation compensator and one desired-input generator. This algorithm is applied to nonlinear hydraulic position control system. The hydraulic servo system is modelled as a second order linear model and cancellation compensator is modelled from it. The desired input generator is inserted to reduce modelling error. Digital computer simulation output using this control method is present and the usefulness of this control algorithm for nonlinear hydraulic system is verified.

In this paper, a sensorless realization method is proposed for the magnetic levitation system. Also we design the robust servo controller which based on the two degree-of-freedom-control theory and H$\sub$.inf./ control theory for the system. From time responses, we confirm that the proposed sensorless method can be applied the magnetic levitation system. Also the designed controller has the good disturbance rejection and the reference tracking performance.

In this paper, we have studied the tracking system with a single channel monopulse receiver that has a comparative advantage of costs, size, weight, and power consumption over the general 3-channel monopulse receivers. After the single channel monopulse system was composed of an antenna, a monopulse receiver, a servo unit, a RF signal processor unit and a power supply unit, we analyzed the basic tracking performance of the tracking error angle and the pointing loss. And we proved the tracking performance to a moving target in the outdoor environment. On the Analysis of the tracking test results, the single channel monopulse system shows a equal or higher performance over the general 3-channel monopulse system and also has advantages of the system implementation. Also, it is concluded that this study is useful to apply a single channel monopulse receiver with benefits of production price and miniaturization when the monopulse tracking systems will be developed in the future.

In this paper, a precise trajectory tracking method for mobile robot using a vision system is presented. In solving the problem of precise trajectory tracking, a hierarchical control structure is used which is composed of the path planer, vision system, and dynamic controller. When designing the dynamic controller, non-ideal conditions such as parameter variation, frictional force, and external disturbance are considered. The proposed controller can learn bounded control input for repetitive or periodic dynamics compensation which provides robust and adaptive learning capability. Moreover, the usage of vision system makes mobile robot compensate the cumulative location error which exists when relative sensor like encoder is used to locate the position of mobile robot. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is shown through computer simulation.

Generally, the tracking performance of optical disk drive(ODD) system can be improved using a disturbance observer(DOB). However, a DOB is not easily applied in an ODD system because an additional microprocessor, such as a digital signal processor(DSP), is needed. This paper shows how a DOB system can be replaced by the error-based modified disturbance observer(EM-DOB) when two mathematical conditions are satisfied. Due to the simplified structure of EM-DOB, the algorithm is easily implemented as an analog circuit, which is suitable for the ODD servo system. Additionally, in these algorithms, disturbances rejection performances can be tuned as Q filter parameters. Similar to a DOB system, three design guidelines of a Q filter can be applied. Experimental results of DOB and EM-DOB are evaluated under forced disturbances.

In order to design a system a process or plant must be put into a mathematical form for analysis and evaluation, and an appropriate controller must be designed to attain the desired system response. In this paper, the mathematical model for an optical pickup actuator is proposed and an H .inf. controller is employed to obtain the optimal focusing/tracking servo system behavior. Simulation and experiments are carried out to verify the performance of the proposed model.
