Research on the technique for estimating the indoor position has been actively carried out. In particular, the WiFi fingerprint method, which does not require any additional infrastructure, is being partially used because of its high economic efficiency. The KNN method which estimates similar points to the corresponding points by comparing intensity information of the WLAN reception signal measured at various points in advance with intensity information measured at a specific point in the future is simple but has a good performance. However, in the conventional KNN scheme, since the number K of average candidate positions is constant, there is a problem that the position estimation error is not optimized according to a specific point. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm that adaptively changes the K value for each point and applied it to experimental data and evaluated its performance.

Probability plotting position is generally used for the graphical analysis of the annual maximum quantile and the estimation of exceedance probability to display the fitness between sample and an appropriate probability distribution. In addition, it is used to apply a specific goodness of fit test. Plotting position formula to define the probability plotting position has been studied in many researches. Especially, the GEV distribution which is an important probability distribution to analyze the frequency of hydrologic data was popular. In this study, the theoretical reduced variates are derived using the mean value of order statistics to derived an appropriate plotting position formula for the GEV distribution. In addition, various forms of plotting position formula considering various sample sizes and coefficients of skewness related with shape parameters are applied. The parameters of plotting position formulas are estimated using the genetic algorithm. The accuracy of derived plotting position formula is estimated by the errors between the theoretical reduced variates and those by various plotting position formulas including the derived ones in this study. As a result, the errors by derived plotting position formula is the smallest at the range of shape parameter with -0.25~0.10.

In an optical observing system, three pairs of observations at equal time intervals are required for the orbit determination method to obtain orbital information of an unknown space objects. In this paper, we propose a method of estimating a streak for acquiring three pairs of observations using one streak image information. Satellite trajectory simulation data were generated for nine cases using the STK program in order to verify the characteristics of the orbit of space object and estimation performance. Simulation was performed by applying three approaches that can estimate the next streak position after a few seconds from one streak image information, and the estimation performance was evaluated. Linear vector method and Kalman Filter method based on the linear assumption tend to increase the estimation error in the region where the nonlinearity is large. However estimation method using the polynomial curve fitting based on the least square method showed smaller and uniform error result than the previous methods.

Motor control requires robust and precise control performance even in the presence of errors in the mathematical model of the motor and disturbances acting on the motor. For robust and precise control, a disturbance observer was designed to estimate the load fluctuation and applied to a back-stepping controller designed as a nominal system. The control performance of the designed system was verified by applying it to the 120 [W] Brushless Direct Current Motor. As a result of the position control and speed control, the disturbance is overcome from the steady state error converges to zero, and asymptotically stable results can be confirmed.

In this paper, we present relative positioning algorithm for moving land vehicle using GPS, MEMS IMU and B-CDMA module. This algorithm does not calculate precise absolute position but calculates relative position directly, so additional infrastructure and I2V communication device are not required. Proposed algorithm has several steps. Firstly, unbiased relative position is calculated using pseudorange difference between two vehicles. Simultaneously, the algorithm estimates position of each vehicle using GPS/INS integration. Secondly, proposed algorithm performs filtering and finally estimates relative position and relative velocity. Using proposed algorithm, we can obtain more precise relative position for moving land vehicles with short time interval as IMU sensor has. The simulation is performed to evaluate this algorithm and the several field tests are performed with real time program and miniature vehicles for verifying performance of proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we design a navigation filter for an underwater glider. Underwater gliders are low-cost, reusable, and can be used for a long time. Two types of filters are designed considering characteristics such as small size, low cost, and low power. The navigation filter estimates the reference velocity of the underwater glider's body frame based on the minimum sensor output. The sensor configuration of the first filter consists of an accelerometer, a magnetometer, and a depth sensor. the second filter include extra a gyroscope in the same configuration. The estimated velocity is fused with the attitude, converted into the velocity of the navigation frame and finally the position is estimated. To analyze the performance of the proposed filter, analysis was performed using Monte Carlo numerical analysis method, and the results were analyzed with standard deviation (1σ). Standard deviations of each filter's position error are 334.34m, 125.91m.

Presently, there are many different technologies used for position detection. However, as signal-receiving devices operating in different locations must detect the precise position of objects located at long distances, it is essential to know the precise time at which an object's or a user's terminal device sends a signal. For this purpose, the existing time of arrival (ToA) technology is not sufficiently reliable, and the existing time difference of arrival (TDoA) technology is more suitable. If a TDoA-based electric surveillance system and other tracking devices fail to achieve precise time-synchronization between devices with separation distance operation, it is impossible to obtain correct TDoA values from the signals sent by the signal-receiving devices; this failure to obtain the correct values directly affects the location estimation error. For this reason, the technology for achieving precise time synchronization between signal-receiving devices in separation distance operation, among the technologies previously mentioned, is a core technology for detecting TDoA-based locations. In this paper, the accuracy of the proposed time synchronization and the measurement error in the TDoA-based location detection technology is evaluated. The TDoA-based location measurement error is significantly improved when using the proposed method for time-synchronization error reduction.

차량의 무인화에 대한 관심이 증대하면서 자율 주행 문제의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 현재 전역적인 차량 위치는 GPS에 도움을 받고 있지만 도심 고층 빌딩 밀집 지역에서 GPS 신호가 불안해지는 멀티 패스 페이딩 현상에 대한 대안 및 터널을 통과할 때 GPS 신호가 단절되는 구간에 대한 대안이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 MEMS 기반의 관성 센서를 제작하고 이를 이용하여 차량의 주행 모드를 자동으로 판별한 뒤 각 상황에 알맞은 칼만 필터를 설계하여 차량 위치를 파악하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 실제 임베디드 시스템에 이식되어 10Hz로 동작함을 확인하였고 GPS 음영 지역에서 3분 이내에는 GPS 오차 범위 내에서 차량 위치를 파악할 수 있음을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

속도의 가변이 많지 않은 모터 application에서는 벡터 제어보다 홀센서를 사용한 BLDC제어를 주로 사용하고 있다. 하지만 기본적으로 홀센서의 기구적인 취약점으로 인하여 BLDC 제어에 문제점이 발생하는 현상을 확인할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 BLDC전동기 구동에 필요한 3개의 홀센서를 이용한 전동기 구동방식에서 하나의 홀센서를 이용하여 회전자의 위치를 추정하는 방법에 대해 제안하였다. 이러한 방식을 통해 홀센서의 취약 부분인 열에 의해 손상되는 경우나 기구적으로 위치오차를 가지고 있는 경우에도 정상적으로 위치정보를 습득할 수 있도록 하여 정상적인 BLDC제어를 할 수 있도록 하는 방안을 제안하였다.
