이 연구의 목적은 편대비행위성의 항법 및 궤도제어를 위한 실시간 Hardware-In-the-Loop(HIL) 시뮬레이션 테스트베드를 개발하는데 있다. HIL 시뮬레이션 테스트베드는 실제와 비슷한 하드웨어 환경을 구성하여 주어진 편대비행임무 요구조건에 따른 새로운 개념의 알고리즘을 테스트할 수 있는 시뮬레이터이다. HIL 시뮬레이션 테스트베드는 실제의 인공위성 시스템 인터페이스와 최대한 유사하게 설계되었으며 환경 컴퓨터, GPS 시뮬레이터, GPS 수신기, 비행제어 컴퓨터, 시각화 컴퓨터 등 총 5개의 독립적인 시스템으로 구성되어 있다. Spirent Communication사의 GSS6560 다중패널 RF 시뮬레이터와, (주)세트렉아이에서 제작한 우주용 GPS 수신기를 사용하여 실제와 유사한 GPS 관측데이터를 사용한다. GPS 수신기로부터 획득한 관측데이터는 비행제어 컴퓨터 시스템으로 전송되고 이를 통해 편대비행위성의 절대위치 및 상대위치결정을 수행하였다. 또한 이 결과를 바탕으로 비행제어 컴퓨터 시스템은 궤도조정에 필요한 제어값을 계산하여 환경 컴퓨터 시스템으로 전송한다. 이렇게 5개의 독립적인 시스템을 유기적으로 통합하여 폐순환반복(closed-loop) HIL 시뮬레이션 테스트베드를 설계하였다. 이 논문에서는 편대비행 위성의 항법 및 제어 알고리즘 테스트를 위한 실시간 HIL 시뮬레이션 테스트베드의 전반적인 구성방법과 세부적인 구성요소에 대해 설명하였다 저궤도 편대비행위성의 편대유지 임무에 대한 가상의 시나리오를 설정하여 위성 편대비행의 항법 및 궤도제어 알고리즘을 실험적으로 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 반도체 FAB에서의 OHT의 제어기를 검증하는 HIL(Hardware-In-the-Loop) 시뮬레이션 방법론을 제안한다. 반도체 FAB의 OHT 네트워크에는 수많은 OHT들이 동시에 운영될 수 있으므로 OHT 제어기에 대한 완벽한 검증은 물류 설비 안정성을 보장하는 데 매우 중요하다. 제어기는 정상적인 상황에 대해서 뿐 아니라 예측하기 힘든 비정상적인 상황에 대해서도 고려하여 설계되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 제어기의 검증을 위해 비정상 상황을 생성할 수 있는 레일 네트워크와 OHT를 포함한 가상 환경을 사용하는 HIL 시뮬레이션 방법론을 제안한다. 제안되는 HIL 시뮬레이션 방법은 구현되었고, 다양한 예제를 통해 테스트 되었다.

This paper presents a comparative evaluation of various topologies for three-phase power converters using the hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation technique. Various switch-mode AC-DC power converters are studied, and their performance with respect to total harmonic distortion (THD), efficiency, power factor and losses are analyzed. The HIL-simulation is implemented in an Altera Cyclone II DE2 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) Board and in the Matlab/Simulink environment. A comparison of the simulation and HIL-simulation results is also provided.

Hardware In-the-Loop simulation(HIL)은 실제 하드웨어 시스템을 실시간 모사할 수 있는 시뮬레이션 장비로 연구 및 개발 기간의 단축, 비용저감 등의 장점을 앞세워 다양한 전력전자 분야에 사용되고 있다. 실제 하드웨어를 그대로 모사하는 것이 HIL의 목적이기 때문에 HIL 장비는 검증의 실시간성과 출력된 결과의 정확성이 무엇보다도 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 하지만 코어간의 데이터를 주고받는 과정에서 HIL의 연산 속도 및 정확성을 저해하는 요인들이 발생하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 HIL 장비를 이용해 복잡한 시스템을 구현함에 있어서 연산속도 및 정확성을 저해하는 요인들을 찾아내고 이를 해결하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 연산속도 개선 및 정확성 개선 방법의 타당성은 프로세서의 연산 속도 변화량, HIL 및 시험 결과 파형의 비교 분석을 통해 검증되었다.

This paper describes a design and temporal analysis of a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation environment for testing a motor control unit (MCU). The design concepts and main characteristics including unavoidable time delays of each component module are described. From temporal analysis results according to the module integration method, an appropriate solution is proposed to fix and minimize time delays. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed solution, the HIL test results are compared with the results of experiments and an offline simulation.

Drivers are becoming more fatigued and uncomfortable with increase in traffic density, and this condition can lead to slower reaction time. Consequently, they may face the danger of traffic accidents due to their inability to cope with frequent gear shifting. To reduce this risk, some drivers prefer automatic transmission (AT) over manual transmission (MT). The AT offers more superior drivability and less shifting shock than the MT; therefore, the AT market share has been increasing. The AT is controlled by an electronic control unit (ECU), which provides better shifting performance. The transmission control unit (TCU) is a higher-value-added product, so the companies that have advanced technologies end to evade technology transfer. With more cars gradually using the ECU, the TCU is expected to be faster and more efficient for organic communication and arithmetic processing between the control systems than the l6-bit controller. In this paper, the model of an automatic transmission vehicle using MATLAB/Simulink is developed for the Hardware in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation with a 32-bit embedded system, and also the AT control logic for shifting is developed by using MATLAB/Simulink. The developed AT control logic, transformed automatically by real time workshop toolbox, is loaded to a 32-bit embedded system platform based on Freescale's MPC565. With both vehicle model and 32-bit embedded system platform, we make the HIL simulation system and HIL simulation of AT based on real time operating system (RTOS) is performed. According to the simulation results, the developed HIL simulator will be used for the performance test of embedded system for AT with low cost and effort.

This study proposes a hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HILS) system based on National Instruments' PXI platform to test power management and operation strategies for DC microgrids (MGs). The HILS system is developed based on the controller HIL prototype, which involves testing the controller board in hardware with a real-time simulation model of the plant in a real-time digital simulator. The system provides an economical and effective testing function for research on MG systems. The decentralized power management strategy based on the DC bus signaling method for DC MGs has been developed and implemented on the HILS platform. HILS results are determined to be similar to those of the off-line simulation in PSIM software.

Purpose: In order to improve road-friendliness of heavy vehicles, a fuzzy hybrid control strategy consisting of a hybrid control strategy and a fuzzy logic control module is proposed. The performance of the proposed strategy should be effectively evaluated using a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation model of a semi-active suspension system based on the fuzzy hybrid control strategy prior to real vehicle implementations. Methods: A hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation system was synthesized by utilizing a self-developed electronic control unit (ECU), a PCI-1711 multi-functional data acquisition board as well as the previously developed quarter-car simulation model. Road-friendliness of a semi-active suspension system controlled by the proposed control strategy was simulated via the HIL system using Dynamic Load Coefficient (DLC) and Dynamic Load Stress Factor (DLSF) criteria. Results: Compared to a passive suspension, a semi-active suspension system based on the fuzzy hybrid control strategy reduced the DLC and DLSF values. Conclusions: The proposed control strategy of semi-active suspension systems can be employed to improve road-friendliness of road vehicles.

To meet the challenge of testing increasingly complex automotive control systems, the real-time hardware-in-the-loop(HIL) simulation technology has been developed. In this paper, a strategy for evaluation of semiactive suspension systems using real-time HIL simulation is presented. A multibody vehicle model is adopted to simulate vehicle dynamic motions accurately. Accuracy of the vehicle simulation results is compared to that of the real vehicle field test and proven to be very accurate. The controller and stepping motor to adjust semi-active damper stage are equipped as external hardwares and connected to the real-time computer which has vehicle dynamic model. Open and closed loop test methods are used to evaluate a controlled suspension system and the system's operations are verified it is found that the proposed evaluation methods can be used well for the verification of semi-active suspension systems.

The Deep-sea miner system is composed of body, actuators, sensors, and devices for control and monitoring. At present, we are manufacturing the miner's body included actuators and already consisted with off-the-shelf embedded controller. But sensors and those devices were just determined. To previously test performance of embedded controller which manages control and monitoring of miner system, its simulator must be developed for control and monitoring. Hardware-In-the-Loop(HIL) simulation is being increasingly used in industrial applications. This is an effective tool for the evaluation of electric system and drives. In the HIL simulator, we can test and design the control and monitoring system freely without the risk of hardware ruins and the load of expenses. Also the programming software for miner operating is verified on the HIL simulator. In this paper, we introduce the concept of HIL simulator for control and monitoring of deep-sea miner.
