In order to transmit energy generated through the stator winding of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), we need to synchronize the generated voltage vector with the grid voltage vector. However, the existing synchronization methods work only when the encoder is installed at a specific position and equivalent constant is precise. In order to solve this problem, a new synchronization method has been proposed and a way of applying the method to existing doubly-fed induction generator control algorithm has been also proposed. The validities of the methods proposed were verified by using a prototype converter for a 1.5MW-class doubly-fed induction generator and experimental results showed the validity of that against variation of an encoder positions, generator parameters, and grid voltages.

In the study, a control strategy using a feedback linearization compensator and a disturbance observer was suggested and applied to the synchronization control of two hydraulic cylinders. The hydraulic system consists of a proportional directional control valve with overlap characteristic near the neutral position, a conventional hydraulic cylinder and an external load. The control performances of the system were verified through numerical simulations. From the simulations, it was ascertained that excellent control performances were obtained with the suggested control strategy.

For high-accuracy position control of a linear motor, it has been proposed a nonlinear controller including a synchronization algorithm. Linear motors are easily affected by force ripple, friction, and parameter variations because there is no mechanical transmission to reduce the effects of model uncertainties and external disturbances. Synchronization error is also caused by skew motion, model uncertainties, and force disturbance on each axis. Nonlinear effects such as friction and ripple force are estimated and compensated for. The synchronization algorithm is used to reduce the synchronous error of the two side pillars. The performance of the controller is evaluated by computer simulations.

Recently, with the rapid development of virtual reality technology, there have been more and more applications of virtual reality technology in various fields. In order to realize a virtual reality, a method of implementing a visualization environment through an HMD (Head Mounted Display) is widely used. However, in the current visualization environment through the HMD, the user feels dizziness when worn, It has the disadvantage of imposing restrictions on. In this study, it is aimed to realize virtual reality visualization environment through multi-screen environment which improves the experience effect of virtual environment by using existing screen instead of visualization through HMD, and compensates for shortcomings of HMD method. In order to realize a multi-screen environment as a highly visualized environment, a technique for matching the spatial position of the multi-screen with the spatial position of the virtual environment is required. To do this, we need an efficient method to precisely measure the position of the space, and we propose a spatial position compensation methodology that can efficiently and precisely measure the position of the real space and reflect it in the virtual environment.

This paper presents a synchronization method to determine the exact demodulation time using the MFM Flag of the 18000-3 PJM mode, along with the hardware structure to implement the proposed method. The proposed system detects an incipient peak using ITS(Initial Time Selector) and a correlator and achieves the final synchronization via identifying the peak position from the comparison of the outputs of two followed additional correlators. The peak detection algorithm and the choice of the templates of the correlators are described. Simulation results show that the proposed system performs successfully in noisy environment.

In this paper, a position control scheme of the ink droplet is presented for the high image quality and print speed inkjet printer. The proposed scheme estimates the impact position and compensates it by control of the fire strobe time based on the dynamic equations describing the moving trajectory of the ink droplet. Compared to the conventional fire strobe control which is based on the simple synchronization the fire strobe with the position signal of the inkjet nozzle, the proposed control scheme provides more accurate impact position control during the carrier is moving with accelerated or decelerated speed as well as constant speed. The availability of printing during the acceleration and deceleration states of the carrier moving enables the print speed up and the frame size down which means the cost down.

Presently, there are many different technologies used for position detection. However, as signal-receiving devices operating in different locations must detect the precise position of objects located at long distances, it is essential to know the precise time at which an object's or a user's terminal device sends a signal. For this purpose, the existing time of arrival (ToA) technology is not sufficiently reliable, and the existing time difference of arrival (TDoA) technology is more suitable. If a TDoA-based electric surveillance system and other tracking devices fail to achieve precise time-synchronization between devices with separation distance operation, it is impossible to obtain correct TDoA values from the signals sent by the signal-receiving devices; this failure to obtain the correct values directly affects the location estimation error. For this reason, the technology for achieving precise time synchronization between signal-receiving devices in separation distance operation, among the technologies previously mentioned, is a core technology for detecting TDoA-based locations. In this paper, the accuracy of the proposed time synchronization and the measurement error in the TDoA-based location detection technology is evaluated. The TDoA-based location measurement error is significantly improved when using the proposed method for time-synchronization error reduction.

To recover transmitted signal perfectly at DTV receiver, we have to acquire carrier frequency synchronization to compensate pilot signal which located in wrong position and rotated phase. Also, we need a symbol timing synchronization to compensate sampling timing error. Conventionally, to synchronize symbol timing, we use Gardner's scheme which used in multi-level signal. Gardner's scheme is well known for its sampling the timing error signal from every symbol and it makes easy to detect and keep timing sync in multi-path channel. In this paper, to discuss the problem when the received power level is out of range and we cannot get synchronization information. With this problem, we use 2 step procedures. First, we put a received signal power compensation block before Garder's timing error detector. Second, adaptive loop filter to get a fast synchronization information and averaging loop filter's output value to reduce the amount of jitter after synchronization in PLL(Phased Locked Loop) circuit which is used to get a carrier frequency synchronization and symbol timing synchronization. Using the averaging value, we can estimate offset. Based on offset changing ratio, we can adapt adaptive loop filter to carrier frequency and symbol timing synchronization circuit.

In this paper, an elementary force fighting problem was investigated. The problem is encountered when a double-rod type EHA(electro-hydrostatic actuator) is combined with a single-rod type EHA to build a redundant actuator system with synchronized motion. When the rod-side chambers of the two different types of EHAs have the same effective piston areas and are simultaneously pressurized by an external load, the two EHAs behave identically, sharing the external load equally. However, when the piston head-side chamber of the single rod type EHA, having a larger effective area than the rod-side chamber, is pressurized by the external load, an abnormal force fighting between the two EHAs occurs, unless their pump speeds are properly decoupled. In this study, the output drive forces of each EHA were obtained from the cylinder pressure signals and applied to the position control for each EHA to maintain the balance between their pump speeds. Adding minor force difference feedback loops to the position control, the force fighting phenomena could be eliminated and steady state synchronization errors were reduced. The power consumption of the pumps also could be remarkably reduced, avoiding unnecessarily high load pressures to the pumps.

In order to safely and speedily transport a load such as a large glass plate using four electric cylinders, the synchronous error outside the permitted range should not be continuously generated between the cylinders. In this study, a methodology of synchronous control which can be applied to synchronization of four or more cylinders is developed. The synchronous control system based on the decoupling structure is composed of a reference model, position and synchronous controllers in the respective cylinders. The reference model is used for calculating the decoupled synchronous error and control input for the each cylinder. The position controller of I-PD type is designed in order that the cylinder may follow the reference signal without overshoot and input saturation. And the synchronous controller of lead compensator is designed to achieve stable and accurate synchronization through loop shaping approach. Finally, the simulation results show that the synchronization between the four cylinders can be quickly and stably while each cylinder rod is transferred to the target point under torque disturbance.
