This paper presents a design of fuzzy PD depth controller for the autonomous underwater vehicle entitled KAUV-1. The vehicle is shaped like a torpedo with light weight and small size and used for marine exploration and monitoring. The KAUV-1 has a unique ducted propeller located at aft end with yawing actuation acting as a rudder. For depth control, the KAUV-1 uses a mass shifter mechanism to change its center of gravity, consequently, can control pitch angle and depth of the vehicle. A design of classical PD depth controller for the KAUV-1 was presented and analyzed. However, it has inherent drawback of gains, which is their values are fixed. Meanwhile, in different operation modes, vehicle dynamics might have different effects on the behavior of the vehicle. In this reason, control gains need to be appropriately changed according to vehicle operating states for better performance. This paper presents a self-tuning gain for depth controller using the fuzzy logic method which is based on the classical PD controller. The self-tuning gains are outputs of fuzzy logic blocks. The performance of the self-tuning gain controller is simulated using Matlab/Simulink and is compared with that of the classical PD controller.

In this research, we are trying to develop an automatic sorting system, which is mostly affected by frictional forces between a veneer and plank. So we will make a suitable dynamic model and mechanism to control the velocity feedback. We will suggest stick-slip motion model which can predict the stability behavior of this system. The control system has a feedback loop, in which the following operations are included. A kind of sensor can get the velocity of the mass to adhesive veneer. The output of result signal should be passed to a filter, then to a phase shifter, which applies an adjustable phase-shift, to a variable-gain amplifier. A shaker will be attached to the mass, which ex...

Underwater gliders do not have any external propulsion systems that can generate and control their motion. Generally, underwater gliders would obtain a propulsive force through the lift force generated on the body by a fluid. Underwater gliders should be equipped with mechanisms that can induce heave and pitch motions. In this study, an inner movable and rotatable mass mechanism was proposed to generate the pitch and roll motions of an underwater glider. In addition, a buoyancy control unit was presented to adjust the displacement of the underwater glider. The buoyancy control unit could generate the heave motion of the underwater glider. In order to analyze the underwater dynamic behavior of this system, nonlinear 6-DOF dynamic equations that included mathematical models of the inner movable mass and buoyancy control unit were derived. Only kinematic characteristics such as the location of the inner movable mass and the piston position of the buoyancy control unit were considered because the velocities of these systems are very slow. The effectiveness of the proposed dynamic modeling was verified through sawtooth and spiraling motion simulations.

본 논문에서는 고정밀 항로 탐색 기능과 장기 임무 수행 능력이 장점인 하이브리드 수중 글라이더의 제어에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 하이브리드 수중 글라이더의 동적 모델링은 자세 제어기와 부력 엔진, 추진기의 수치 모델을 기반으로 하였다. 하이브리드 수중 글라이더의 부드러운 제어와 정밀한 항해를 고려하여 제어 시스템을 설계하였다. 물을 흡입 할 수 있는 부력 엔진은 선체의 부력을 제어하도록 설계되었다. 그리고 배터리를 탑재한 질량 이동체는 선체의 피칭 동작을 제어 할 수 있도록 설계되었다. 또한 부력 엔진 및 자세 제어기를 제어하기 위한 제어 시스템이 구성하였다. 성능을 확인하기 위해 제작된 모델을 사용하여 수조 시험을 수행하였다.

A new digital correlator fur an airborne synthetic aperture radiometer was designed in order to replace the conventional analog correlator unit which will become very complicated while the number of channels is increasing. The digital correlator uses digital IQ demodulator instead of the intermediate frequency (IF) phase shifter to make the correlation processing performed digitally at base band instead of analogly at IF. This technique has been applied to the digital receiver in softradio. The down-converted IF signals from each pair of receiver channels become low rate base-band digital signals after under-sampled, Digitally Down-Converted (DDC), decimated and filtered by FIR filters. The digital signals are further processed by two digital multipliers (complex correlation), the products are integrated by the integrators and finally the outputs from the integrators compose of the real part and the imaginary part of a sample of the visibility function. This design is tested by comparing the results from digital correlators and that from analog correlators. They are agreed with each other very well. Due to the fact that the digital correlators are realized with the help of Analog-Digital Converter (ADC) chips and the FPGA technology, the realized volume, mass, power consumption and complexity turned out to be greatly reduced compared with that of the analog correlators. Simulations show that the resolution of ADC has an influence on the synthesized antenna patterns, but this can be neglected if more than 2bit is used.

수중글라이더(UG; underwater glider)는 지속적인 해양관측 탐사를 목적으로 개발된 장기운용 가능한 수중로봇이다. 원통형의 일반적인 수중글라이더는 단일 부력엔진과 자세제어기를 통해 추진하기 때문에, 운동조종성능 측면에서 효율적이지 못하다. 본 논문에서는 기존 원통형 수중글라이더의 부력제어 및 운동제어성능을 개선하기 위해 이중부력엔진을 탑재한 가오리 형태의 수중글라이더를 소개한다. CFD(computational fluid dynamics) 해석을 수행하여 설계된 형상의 글라이드 운동에 대한 유체저항성능을 해석한다. 산출한 유체력 계수를 바탕으로 운동 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 운동성능을 비교 분석한다. 가오리 형태의 수중글라이더 소형 축소모델을 제작하고, 제어시스템을 구성하여 기초 성능시험을 수행한다.
