본 연구에서 구현하고자 하는 선박의 회두각 제어의 경우 파도, 바람, 조류 등의 외란의 영향을 많이 받고 있을 뿐만 아니라 그 운동 특성 역시 비선형이므로 적절한 파라미터의 선정과 제어기 구성에 어려움이 따른다. 이의 해결을 위해 K. M. Passino 등에 의해 비선형 특성을 지닌 기준 모델 적응 퍼지 알고리즘을 적용하여 제어기 구성을 시도한바 있고, 국내에서도 김종화 등에 의해 유사한 방법이 시도되어졌다. 본 연구에서는 이상의 시도에서 기준 모델에 의한 제어기 파라미터의 동정의 방법으로 사용한 M.I.T 룰 대신 일반적인 유전 알고리즘에 의해 퍼지 제어기의 파라미터를 동정하고자 한다. 유전 알고리즘에 기반한 기준 모델 적응 퍼지 제어기(MRGAFC) 알고리즘을 제안하며, 이의 검증을 위하여 화물선 회두각의 조향 문제에 이를 적용하여 종래의 방법들과 비교를 수행할 것이다.

This paper deals with trajectory control of computer simulated mobile robot via fuzzy control. Mobile robot is controlled by Mamdani type fuzzy controller. Inputs of the fuzzy controller are angle between mobil robot and target, changed angle and output is the steering angle, which is control input. Fuzzy rules have seven rules and are selected by human experiential knowledge. Also we propose a scaling factors tuning scheme which is the another focus in designing fuzzy controller. In this paper, we adapt the RCGA which is well known in parameter optimization to adjust scaling factors. The simulation results show that the fuzzy control effectively realize trajectory stabilization of the mobile robot along a given reference target from various initial steering angles.

This paper describes a method to steer an autonomous electric vehicle using magnetic fields. Magnets are embeded along the center of the road and a magneto-resistive sensor is mounted beneath the front bumper of the vehicle. As the vehicle moves along the road neural network controller controls the vehicle using measured magnetic field variation. Based on a single magnets modeling equation, we analyzed three dimensional magnetic field distributions of embeded magnets in series on the center of the road and performed a computer simulation using this results. In simulation study, straight and curved road was configured. The steering controller for the vehicle was designed using neural network and experiment was performed on the real embeded magnets using real autonomous electric vehicle. At the experiment we compensated the earth's magnetic fields and showed a good result driving an autonomous vehicle using proposed method.

In this paper we proposed a beam steering equation for the planar slotted waveguide array antenna. The tilt angle measured from the rotating axis and the aperture distribution of the antenna were the most important factors for the beam steering. From the equation, we calculated the frequency and phase distribution of the aperture for any desired beam direction. And we developed a high speed control algorithm delivering the phase data to the phase shifters of a one-dimensional phased array antenna. To reduce complexity of the control circuit and the phase delivery time, we proposed the serial phase repeating method. Because of its simplicity, we expect it can be useful for a large 2- dimensional fully phased array antenna.

In this paper, we get state equations based on wheel's rotation, tilt and steering are independent each other in balancing robot. Accordingly, we propose two LQR controllers which are appropriate for rotation and steering control of a balancing robot. And its superiority and appropriateness are demonstrated by a comparison to a PID method. Simulation results verify the possibility of upright balancing, rectilinear motion and position control. Moreover, experimental results show that it guarantees the performance to apply the two LQR controllers to balance the robot.

An integrated dynamic control (IDCF) with an active front steering system and an active rear braking system is proposed and developed in this study. A fuzzy logic controller is applied to calculate the desired additional steering angle and desired slip of the rear inner wheel. To validate IDCF system, an eight degree of freedom, nonlinear vehicle model and a sliding mode wheel slip controller are also designed. Various road conditions are used to test the performance. The results show that the yaw rate of IDCF vehicle followed the reference yaw rate and reduced the body slip angle, compared with uncontrolled vehicle. Thus, the IDCF vehicle had enhanced lateral stability and controllability.

Power steering systems far automobile are becoming ever more popular because they reduce steering efforts of the drivers, especially during parking lot maneuver. In this paper, the controller of the motor driven hydraulic power steering(MDHPS) has been designed and developed. This system uses a power source of DC motor instead of engine power source for power steering drive oil pump. The developed MDHPS system is accomplished a highly sensitive power steering resulted from electronic control under variable driving condition. Furthermore, this system is more improvement than type of engine driving far fuel economy.

This paper describes a lateral guidance system of an autonomous vehicle, using a neural network model of magneto-resistive sensor and magnetic fields. The model equation was compared with experimental sensing data. We found that the experimental result has a negligible difference from the modeling equation result. We verified that the modeling equation can be used in simulations. As the neural network controller acquires magnetic field values(B$\sub$x/, B$\sub$y/, B$\sub$z/) from the three-axis, the controller outputs a steering angle. The controller uses the back-propagation algorithms of neural network. The learning pattern acquisition was obtained using computer simulation, which is more exact than human driving. The simulation program was developed in order to verify the acquisition of the teaming pattern, learning itself, and the adequacy of the design controller. Also, the performance of the controller can be verified through simulation.

Steering of the vehicles on a slippery highway is a difficult task for most passenger car drivers. The steering vehicles on slippery roads tend to slide outward with less lateral forces than on nor mal roads. When the drivers notice that their vehicles on a slippery highway start to depart from the cornering lane, most of them make a sudden steering and/or braking, which in turn may induce spin-out and instability on their vehicles. In this paper, an active steering control method is proposed such that the vehicles in slippery roads are steered as if they are driven on the normal roads. In the proposed method, the estimated lateral forces acting on the steering tires are compared with the reference values and the difference is compensated by the active steering method. A fuzzy logic controller is designed for this purpose and evaluated on a steering Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation (HILS) system. Steering performance results on the slippery curved and sinus roads demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller. This method can be realized with the steer-by-wire concept and is promising as an active safety technology.

This paper presents a mathematical model which is about the dynamics of not only a two wheel steering vehicle but a four wheel steering vehicle. A sliding mode ABS control strategy and PID rear wheel control logic are developed to improve the brake and cornering performances, and enhance the stability during emergency maneuvers. The performances of the controllers are evaluated under the various driving road conditions and driving situations. The numerical study shows that the proposed full car model is sufficient to accurately predict the vehicle response. The proposed ABS controller reduces the stopping distance and increases the vehicle stability. The results also prove that the ABS controller can be employed to a four wheel steering vehicle and improves its performance. The four wheel steering vehicle with PID rear wheel controller shows increase of stability when a vehicle speed is high and sharp cornering maneuver when a vehicle speed is low compared to that of a two wheel steer vehicle.
