With the recent advancement of control method and battery technology, the electric vehicle have been researched to replace the conventional vehicle with electric vehicle with the view point of the environmental concerns and energy conservation. An electric vehicle which is equipped with the independent front steering system and in-wheel motors has advantage in terms of control. For example, the different torque which generated by left and right wheels directly can make yaw moment and the independent steering using outer wheel control is able to reduce the sideslip angle. Using of independent steering and driving system, the 4 wheel electric vehicle can improve a performance better than conventional vehicle. In this paper, we consider the method for improving the cornering performance of independent front steering system and in-wheel motor used electric vehicle with the compensated outer wheel angle and direct yaw moment control. Simulation results show that the method can improve the cornering performance of 4 wheel electric vehicle. We also apply the steering motor failure to steer the vehicle turned by the torque difference without steering. This paper describes an independent front steering and driving, consist of three parts; Vehicle Model, Control Algorithm for independent steering and driving and simulation. First, vehicle model is application of TruckSim software for independent front steering and 4 wheel driving. Second, control algorithm describes the reduced sideslip and direct yaw moment method in view of cornering performance. Last is simulation and verification.

This paper presents to study the path tracking method of AGV(autonomous guided vehicle) which has a laser guidance system. An existing automatic guided vehicles(AGVs) which were able to drive on wired line only had a automatic guidance system. However, the automatic guidance systems that those used had the high cost of installation and maintenance, and the difficulty of system change according to variation of working environment. To solve such problems, we make the laser guidance system which is consisted of a laser navigation and gyro, encoder. That is robust against noise, and flexible according to working environment through sensor fusion. The laser guidance system can do a perfect autonomous driving. However, the commercialization of perfect autonomous driving system is difficult, because the perfect autonomous driving system must recognize the whole environment of working space. Hence, this paper studied the path tracking of AGV using laser guidance system without wired line. The path tracking method is consisted of virtual path generation method and driving control method. To experiment, we use the fork-type AGV which is made by ourselves, and do a path tracking experiments repeatedly on same experimental environment. In result, we verified that proposed system is efficient and stable for actual fork-type AGV.

A brushless DC (BLDC) motor control system for four-axis driving fins to control the flight attitude of a guided artillery munition is developed in this study. This system adopts a simple sensorless control scheme without a Hall sensor. A 12-step driving sensorless BLDC motor scheme is used to improve the output torque. This system has many restrictive problems that hinder the verification of a real system. For example, this has cost and environmental limitations. Therefore, this study develops HILS to verify a four-axis driving fin control system and verifies the position control system hardware by HILS operation.

This paper proposes a balancing and driving control system for a bicycle robot. A reaction wheel pendulum control method is adopted to maintain the balance while the bicycle robot is driving. For the driving control, PID control algorithm with a variable gain adjustment has been developed in this paper, where the gains are heuristically adjusted during the experiments. To measure the angles of the wheels the encoders are used. For the balancing control, a roll controller is designed with a non-model based algorithm to make the shortest cycle. The tilt angle is measured by the fusion of the acceleration and gyroscope sensors, which is used to generate the control input of the roll controller to make the tilt angle zero. The performance of the designed control system has been verified through the real experiments with the developed bicycle robot.

본 논문은 보다 높은 실재감과 안전성을 확보하기 위한 무인차량 원격주행제어 환경 개발에 대한 내용을 설명한다. 주로 무인차량 원격주행제어를 위한 환경은 조이스틱 형태의 장치를 활용하여 조향과 가/감속이 가능하도록 개발되어 사용되었다. 그 외 일반 차량처럼 간이 조향-휠(steering-wheel)을 기반으로 개발된 시뮬레이터 환경도 있으나, 현재 주행 상황을 피드백하는 기술이 적용되어 있지 않거나 가/감속부를 포함하지 않는 것이 대부분이다. 피드백 기술이란 일반 차량을 직접 운전할 때 조향-휠과 가/감속 페달을 통해 느껴지는 현재 주행 상황을 시뮬레이터 환경에 구현하는 것을 의미한다. 이렇듯 무인차량 원격주행제어에 이질감을 감소시키는 피드백 기술 개발과 더불어 실재감을 높일 수 있는 시뮬레이터 환경 구축이 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 선행 연구를 통해 개발된 힘반향 햅틱제어 기술을 적용할 수 있는 시뮬레이터 환경을 구축하고 시뮬레이터 하드웨어의 최소 요구사양을 도출하는 연구를 수행하였다. 하드웨어 구성은 일반 차량과 유사한 조향-휠 모듈과 가/감속 페달 모듈로 구성하였으며, 조향부와 가/감속부 모두 피드백 기술을 적용할 수 있도록 별도의 액추에이터를 설치하였다. 또한 제어부 PC를 통해 두 가지 조작부에 피드백 명령을 전달할 수 있도록 CAN(controller area network) 통신 환경을 구성하였다. 이렇게 구성한 시뮬레이터 환경의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 기 개발된 힘반향 햅틱제어 알고리즘을 직접 적용하여 각 상황 별 알고리즘 동작을 평가하였다.

Surveillance Radar System for naval vessels is a primary core sensor for command and fire control, and provides CFCS(Command and Fire Control System) information for 3-D surveillance and fire control. It's composed of Antenna, Transmitter/Receiver, Signal Processor, and Air drier, which are installed on and under deck. They should be designed and produced in order to endure at any operating circumstances. This paper analyzes load of a driving part for driving the antenna considering factors under external operating circumstances, and proposes a condition of load for maintaining fixed RPM through analyzing internal load of the driving part, and how to reduce the load to meet the condition. This paper is verified through experimental studies.

We designed and implemented a fork-type automatic guided vehicle (AGV) with a laser guidance system. Most previous AGVs have used two types of guidance systems: magnetgyro and wire guidance. However, these guidance systems have high costs, are difficult to maintain with changes in the operating environment, and can drive only a pre-determined path with installed sensors. A laser guidance system was developed for addressing these issues, but limitations including slow response time and low accuracy remain. We present a laser guidance system and control system for AGVs with laser navigation. For analyzing the performance of the proposed system, we designed and built a fork-type AGV, and performed repetitions of our experiments under the same working conditions. The results show an average positioning error of 51.76 mm between the simulated driving path and the driving path of the actual fork-type AGV. Consequently, we verified that the proposed method is effective and suitable for use in actual AGVs.

Reduction of a ship's rolling is the most important performance requirement for improving the safety of the crew on board and preventing damage to cargos as well as improving the comfort of the ride. A mass driving anti-rolling system (MO-ARS) might be one candidate of several systems against the ship's rolling. As the movable range of the mass on the ship is finite, the control system must include restriction on the mass position to protect the device and the ship. This restriction usually causes windup phenomenon and control performance is deteriorated seriously. Two control algorithms, anti-windup control and saturated sliding mode control, are studied in this paper. Control performance and robustness problem are checked out by numerical simulations.

This paper proposes an adaptive multimodal in-vehicle information system for safe driving. The proposed system filters input information based on both the priority assigned to the information and the given driving situation, to effectively manage input information and intelligently provide information to the driver. It then interacts with the driver using an adaptive multimodal interface by considering both the driving workload and the driver's cognitive reaction to the information it provides. It is shown experimentally that the proposed system can promote driver safety and enhance a driver's understanding of the information it provides by filtering the input information. In addition, the system can reduce a driver's workload by selecting an appropriate modality and corresponding level with which to communicate. An analysis of subjective questionnaires regarding the proposed system reveals that more than 85% of the respondents are satisfied with it. The proposed system is expected to provide prioritized information through an easily understood modality.

In order to maintain a constant ratio between the ground wheel and fed shaft of planters, a feedback control unit was designed to drive the feed shaft in proportional to the ground speed. The fifth wheel was used as a ground speed sensor for the control unit. Using this control unit a feed shaft driving system was developed and tested both in the laboratory and field to evaluate it performance . The test results showed that the system drove the feed shaft in proportional to the ground speed in the normal planting speed range of 0.5 -0.8m/s with an error of less than 5%.
