In this paper, we propose a fault diagnosis algorithm for BLDC motors by principle component analysis (PCA) and implement a real-time fault diagnosis system for BLDC motors. To verify the proposed diagnosis algorithm, various faulty data are acquired by Lab VIEW program from experimental system. We extract a fault feature using principle component analysis after preprocessing and then finally the fault diagnosis is performed by Euclidean similarity. Also, we embed the PCA algorithm and k-NN classification algorithm into a digital signal processor. From various experiments, we found that the proposed algorithm can be used as a powerful technique to classify the several fault signals acquired from BLDC motors.

본 논문에서는 생산 현장에서 사람이 하고 있는 자동차 부품의 전수(全數) 검사 방법을 대체하기 위한 머신 비전 시스템의 개발 연구이다. 세계 자동차 생산업체간 활발한 합병 및 전략적 제휴로 인한 완성차 업체수의 감소는 부품 업체 간 경쟁을 심화시키고 있다. 외국 업체에 비하여 상대적으로 규모 의 영세성을 보이고 있는 국내 부품 생산 업체는 대규모 생산 설비 투자와 함께 생산 효율성을 증대시켜 국제적인 경쟁력을 갖추도록 하여야 한다. 생산 효율과 품질 향상을 위한 노력의 일환으로 플라스틱 압출 성형에서 생기는 여러 가지 불량품 유형을 PC를 기반한 머신 비전 시스템 (Machine Vision System)을 구축하여 생산된 부품을 실시간 검사하고 불량품을 분류 하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 머신 비전 시스템에 사용된 소프트웨어는 NI-LabVIEW를 사용하였으며, LabVIEW Vision 이미지 함수를 사용하여 검사 프로그램의 개발하였다. 부품 검사에 걸리는 시간은 50ms 내로 완료되기 때문에 생산 부품의 실시간 검사에 적용 될 수 있으며, 검사 영역과 설정 값을 비전 시스템 운용자가 설정할 수 있도록 프로그램이 만들어 졌다.

In this paper, two types of radar vehicle detectors compatible with currently being used ILD(Inductive Loop Detector) without any modification has been developed. With these vehicle detectors based on FMCW altimeter and Doppler speedometer techniques at 24 GHz, the length and speed of a vehicle can be detected. For signal processing part, we have used DAQ board and programmed with LabView. For compatibility with traffic information network connected with existing ILD's, traffic information has been sent to VDS by using RS-232C standard interface. This development has improved approximately 10% in accuracy in terms of the speed and length information compared with that of the installed ILD in the test field.

Wind monitoring system is an absolutely-required system for assessing a performance and fatigue load of the wind energy generator in an on-shore wind energy experimental research complex. It was implemented for the purpose of monitoring the wind information measured from a meteorological tower at the monitoring house and of utilizing the measured data for the performance assessment, by using the LabVIEW program. Then, by adding the performance assessment-related data acquired from the wind energy generator during the performance assessment and the data recorder for synchronizing the data of meteorological tower, the system was implemented. Because it transmitted the data by converting the output 'RS-232' of data logger which measures the wind condition into CAN protocol, the data error rate was minimized, This paper is intended to explain the developed wind data monitoring system.

The objectives of this research are development of guidance, navigation and control system for RUAV on virtual instrumentation and real flight test. For this research, the system is divided to DAQ (data acquisition) section, actuator section and controller section. And the hardware and software on each sections are realized on LabVIEW base. Waypoint guidance and control of auto flight are realized using PID gain tuning and waypoint vector tracking guidance algorism. For safe flight test, auto/manual switching module isolated from FCS (Flight Control System) is developed. By using the switch module, swift mode change was achieved during emergency flight case. Consequently, a meter level error of flight performance is achieved.

This research measures EEG signals which are generating on head skin and extracts brain concentration level related with brain activity. We have developed concentration wireless transmission system by displaying this EEG signal on PDA mobile device. The front head was used for measuring EEG signal and INA128 with TL084 and analog elements was used for measuring EEG signal, amplifying and filtering the signal. Measured analog EEG signals changed into digital signals by using ADC of PIC24FJ192 with 10bit resolution and 500Ks/s sampling rate. So The changed digital signals have transmitted to the PDA by using bluetooth. LabView 8.5 was also used for FFT transformation, frequency and spectrum analysis of the transferred EEG signal. As a result, $\alpha$ wave, $\beta$ wave, $\theta$ wave and $\delta$ wave were classified. we extracted the concentration index by adapting concentration extraction algorithm. This concentration index was transferred into PDA by wireless module and displaying.

Frequency analysis is one of the most useful way to analyze response signal for the purpose of grasping the dynamic characteristics of system through Fourier transformation. Although it is very effective way for frequency analysis, it is hard to analyze out a specific sound or vibration component which is correlated with others. In this thesis, source contribution analysis tool for NI-PXI equipment is developed with LabVIEW using coherences of MISO(multiple-input single-output) model. For the purpose of examining propriety of developed tool, simulation is performed with several correlated signals that have different frequency range. After checking the OCF(ordinary coherence function) and PCF(partial coherence function) of the each signal for concerned frequency domain, an experiment is conducted on an evaporator that cause the principal noise of a refrigerator. This developed tool will be expected to build up more convenient and serviceable measurement system.

In this study, basic research on the thrust control by controling oxidizer mass flow rate of a $GO_2$/PE hybrid rocket is presented. For this purpose, hybrid rocket system including oxidizer flow control system and data acquisition system was developed. To control oxidizer mass flow rate, we used needle valve with stepping motor which was controled by LabVIEW program. During the fundamental experiments, this system managed to follow the pre-programmed (20 N - 10 N - 20 N - 0 N) thrust level.

Solar Air Systems (SAS) have unique advantages for space heating and tempering ventilation air. Air, unlike water, needs no protection against freezing nor are leaks damaging to the building structure or its contents. In contrast to glazed collector, unglazed steel solar collector may have higher efficiencies over glazed flat collector due to the absence of the glass. Therefore, the monitoring of SAS is so important to evaluate actual performance of SAS for right applications. This study is to provide a testing method with a movable test cell developed in KIER to evaluate the thermal performance of SAS based on international standard method ASHRAE 93-86, "Method of Testing to Determine the Thermal Performance of Solar Collectors". The monitoring tool used advanced technique LabVIEW 6i with portable notebook computer. Sample results have been obtained to access the performance of a reference and a target SAS module. The process and tool introduced here could be used to provide a performance verification data for future implementation study applications.
