Hybrid locomotive UGV with actively articulated legs along with wheeled ends has high traversability to travel over rough terrain. The behavior control method was usually adapted for the controlling of the suspension configuration which determines the traversability of the UGV. In this study, we are proposing a method of configuration planning of the legs without any detail geometric data about the terrain. The terrain was estimated by the traces of each wheel and the leg configurations for the desired posture of the vehicle were set up against the constraints of the terrain. Also, an optimal leg configuration was calculated based on the quasi-static stability and power consumption, and plans for the leg behavior were made. Validity of the proposed method was checked by simulations using some off-the-shelf programs, and showed that the orientation control without geometric features of terrains and simplification of the behavior planning for obstacle negotiation were possible.

In this paper, the development and performance analysis of a fuel cell-powered unmanned aerial vehicle is described. A fuel cell system featuring 1 kW proton exchange membrane fuel cell combined with a highly pressurized fuel supply system is proposed. For the higher fuel consumption efficiency and simplification of overall system, dead-end type operation is chosen and each individual system such as purge system, fuel supply system, cooling system is developed. Considering that fluctuation of exterior load makes it hard to stabilize fuel cell performance, the power management system is designed using a fuel cell and lithium-ion battery hybrid system. After integration of individual system, the performance of unmanned aerial vehicle is analyzed using data from flight and laboratory test. In the result, overall system was properly operated but for more duration of flight, research on weight lighting and improvement of fuel efficiency is needed to be progressed.

본 논문에서는 UHD급 영상의 실시간 처리를 위한 고성능 HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding) In-loop Filter 부호화기의 효율적인 하드웨어 구조를 제안한다. HEVC는 양자화 에러로 발생하는 화질 열화 문제를 해결하기 위해 Deblocking Filter와 SAO(Sample Adaptive Offset)로 구성된 In-loop Filter를 사용한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 In-loop Filter 부호화기 하드웨어 구조에서 Deblocking Filter와 SAO는 수행시간 단축을 위해 $32{\times}32CTU$를 기준으로 2단 하이브리드 파이브라인 구조를 갖는다. Deblocking Filter는 10단계 파이프라인 구조로 수행되며, 메모리 접근 최소화 및 참조 메모리 구조의 단순화를 위해 효율적인 필터링 순서를 제안한다. 또한 SAO는 화소들의 분류와 SAO 파라미터 적용을 2단계 파이프라인 구조로 구현하고, 화소들의 처리를 간소화 및 수행 사이클 감소를 위해 두 개의 병렬 Three-layered Buffer를 사용한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 In-loop Filter 부호화기 하드웨어 구조는 Verilog HDL로 설계하였으며, TSMC 0.13um CMOS 표준 셀 라이브러리를 사용하여 합성한 결과 약 205K개의 게이트로 구현되었다. 또한 110MHz의 동작주파수에서 4K UHD급 해상도인 $3840{\times}2160@30fps$의 실시간 처리가 가능하다.
