The prevalence of microprocessor-based controllers in automotive systems has greatly increased the need for tools which can be used to validate and test control systems over their full range of operation. The objective of this paper is to develop a real time simulator of traction control system by the methodology of using hardware-in-loop simulation based on a personal computer. By use of this simulator, the analysis of commercial electronic control units and components for TCS were performed successfully. The simulator of this research can be applied to development of more advanced control systems(suck as vehicle dynamics control system) and other automotive system.

A PMS (Power Management System) controls vessel's power systems to improve the system efficiency and to protect a blackout condition. The PMS should be developed with considering the type and the capacity of the vessel's power system. It is necessary to test the PMS functions developed for vessel's safe operations under various sailing situations. Therefore, the function tests in cooperation with practical power systems are required in the PMS development. In this paper, a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulator is developed for the purposes of the PMS function tests. The HIL simulator can be more cost-effective, more time-saved, easier to reproduce, and safer beyond the normal operating range than conventional off-line simulators, especially at early stages in development processes or during fault tests. Vessel's power system model is developed by using a MATLAB/SIMULINK software and by communicating between an OPAL-RT's OP5600 simulator. The PMS uses a Modbus communication protocol implemented using LabVIEW software. Representative tests of the PMS functions are performed to verify the validity of the proposed HIL-based test platform.

본 연구에서는 터보과급기 테스트 벤치, 실시간용 소프트웨어와 DAQ의 HIL 플랫폼, 그리고 Matlab/ Simulink로 작성한 엔진 모델로 구성된 HIL 시스템을 구축하고, HIL 시스템의 정상 작동 여부를 파악하기 위해 연료 공급량을 단계적으로 변화시키는 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 연료 공급량을 1.8944 kg/h와 4.7360 kg/h 사이에서 단계적으로 변화시키고, 시스템이 설정된 목표 공연비 32를 추종하는지 여부를 분석하였다. 시뮬레이션의 결과 연료 공급량을 변화시킨 상태에서 20초 정도의 시간이 경과한 후 설정된 목표 공연비에 정상적으로 수렴하였다. 또한 연료 공급량의 변화에 따라 터빈 베인 듀티비와 압축기의 부스트 압력도 적절하게 변화함을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 시스템은 터보과급기 개발 및 성능 개선에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

As the vehicle electronic control technology quickly grows and becomes more sophisticated, a more efficient means than the traditional in-vehicle driving test is required for the design, testing, and tuning of electronic control units (ECU). For this purpose, the hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) scheme is very promising, since significant portions of actual driving test procedures can be replaced by HIL simulation. The HILS incorporates hardware components in the numerical simulation environment, and this yields results with better credibility than pure numerical simulations can offer. In this study, a HILS system has been developed for ESP (Electronic Stability Program) ECUs. The system consists of the hardware component, which that includes the hydraulic brake mechanism and an ESP ECU, the software component, which virtually implements vehicle dynamics with visualization, and the interface component, which links these two parts together. The validity of HIL simulation is largely contingent upon the accuracy of the vehicle model. To account for this, the HILS system in this research used the commercial software CarSim to generate a detailed full vehicle model, and its parameters were set by using design data, SPMD (Suspension Parameter Measurement Device) data, and data from actual vehicle tests. Using the developed HILS system, performance of a commercial ESP ECU was evaluated for a virtual vehicle under various driving conditions. This HILS system, with its reliability, will be used in various applications that include durability testing, benchmarking and comparison of commercial ECUs, and detection of fault and malfunction of ESP ECUs.

The new engineering challenges lead to a control of a vehicle more and more complex. To tackle this issue, Hardware-In-the-Loop (HIL) simulation is used in the development of real-time embedded systems. In this paper, the control of a double parallel hybrid vehicle is validated using a reduced power HIL simulation. A graphical description is used in order to organize the emulation and control. Some experimental results of a versatile testbed are given for the Peugeot $3{\infty}8$ HYbrid4.

A hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) platform for a power management control of islanded DC microgrids is established. In order to avoid the complexity and high costs, a decentralized control based on the DC Bus Signaling (DBS) method is applied to the HIL system. The simulation results for the HIL microgrid platform have verified the effectiveness of power management strategy.

Cyber-Physical Systems(CPS) that mostly provides safety-critical and mission-critical services requires high reliability, so that system testing is an essential and important process. Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation(HILS) is one of the extensively used techniques for testing hardware systems. However, most conventional HILS has problems that it is difficult to support a distributed operating environment and to reuse a HILS platform. In this paper, we introduce EcoHILS(ETRI CPS Open Human-Interactive hardware-in-the-Loop Simulator) in order to test CPS effectively. Moreover, feasibility tests and performance tests of EcoHILS are performed to confirm its effectiveness.

본 논문에서는 HVDC 제어 시스템의 기능 검증을 위해 구축한 RTDS 기반의 HILS(Hardware-In-the Loop Simulation)시스템 및 시험 결과를 소개하였다. MMC 기반 VSC HVDC는 다수의 직렬 연결된 SM(Sub-Module)을 개별 제어해야 하므로 기존의 LCC HVDC 및 2/3-Level 컨버터 기반의 VSC HVDC와 같은 설비들보다 훨씬 더 복잡한 VBE 구조를 가지고 있다. 또한 짧은 시간 내에 정밀한 제어가 가능해야 하므로 높은 제어 정밀도가 요구된다. (주)효성에서는 제어 시스템의 성능 검증을 위해 RTDS 기반의 HILS(Hardware-In-the Loop Simulation)시스템을 구축하였으며, 이를 이용하여 HVDC 제어 시스템의 성능 시험을 수행하였다. 본 논문에서는 구축된 RTDS 기반의 HILS 시스템 및 시험 결과를 소개하였다.

In this paper, a design method of the simulation program for HILS(Hardware-In-the-Loop Simulation) system is proposed. The present method consists of definition of requirements for HILS, development of specifications, and implementation of the program to satisfy the specifications. In the implementation of the program, the application of hardware interface and the concept of structural modularization are proposed to satisfy the specifications. The concepts of CSCI(Computer Software Configuration Item) and encapsulation are used for structural modularization. The proposed method was practically applied to the development of the simulation program for the efficient operation in HILS of an anti-ship missile system.
