This paper reports the application of GPS (Global Positioning System) technique into the geotechnical information system. Typical example of such application can be the database of logging data. Other examples can be found from the surveying for road work, excavation work, landslide mapping and image processing of slope face. This paper also reports the enhancement method of the accuracy. The results from this study confirms that GPS could be a powerful tool for the future geotechnical investigation works in Korea.

Recently High precision positioning device is used in many kinds of manufacturing and scientific instruments. Piezoelectric transducer is applied to the positioning devive as actuator, PZT has a high resolution, however, moving range is short. Many researcher have developed the mechanism for increasing a motion range. The types of increasing motion range mechanism with PZT are inertial slider, friction driver, ultrasonic motor, etc. In this paper we discuss the review of the hish precision actuator mechanism with PZT. Many kinds of mechanism for high precision are shown and compared.

Due to various advantages over the conventional linear motion device such as ball-screw, linear motors have been used in wide variety of industrial applications for years. Driven by increased demand for precision machine tools, the importance of high positioning accuracy, high stiffness and high thrust are greatly increasing. The merits of linear motor are high speed high acceleration and good positioning accuracy. In addiction, Linear motor for high qualify machine tool call for high thrust, high stiffness. In this paper, thrust ripple, detent force and thermal behavior are considered for the development of high performance linear motor whose thrust is up to 1,900N. This paper presents a comprehensive study for an iron core type linear motor characteristics that include the influence of PM position on thrust ripple by detent force and motor dynamics as well.

Linear motor is very rapidly substituted for rotary motor and ball screw for precision positioning applications because of its characteristics such as high speed, no backlash and simplicities. A precision positioning system which is composed of linear motion(LM) guide and linear motor is widely used since it has easy controllable property but this system has low accuracy problem caused by friction of the LM guide. In this study, a scanning type XY stage is manufactured and some experiments is performed to improve the accuracy of the stage.

The auto-encoder network which is a good candidate to handle the modeling of the signal strength attenuation is designed for denoising and compensating the distortion of the received data. It provides a non-linear mapping function by iteratively learning the encoder and the decoder. The encoder is the non-linear mapping function, and the decoder demands accurate data reconstruction from the representation generated by the encoder. In addition, the adaptive network width which supports the automatic generation of new hidden nodes and pruning of inconsequential nodes is also implemented in the proposed algorithm for increasing the efficiency of the algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed method can improve the neural network training surface to achieve the highest possible accuracy of the signal modeling compared with the conventional modeling method.

In this study, we propose a new input device using vision technology for positioning of multiple DOFs. The input device is composed of multiple Tags on a transparent table and a vision camera below the table. Vision camera detects LEDs at the bottom of each Tag to derive information of the ID, position and orientation. The information are used to determine position and orientation of remote target DOFs. Our developed approach is very reliable and effective, especially when the corresponding DOFs are from many independent individuals. We show an application example with a SCARA robot to prove the flexibility and extendability.

본 연구는 슬라이딩 모드개념을 이용한 비선형 견실 상태 추정기의 선박 위치제어시스템에 대한 적용에 관한 연구이다. 개발된 상태추정기는 제어기 설계에 필요한 동적 모델에 있어서 고려되지 않은 비선형성과 불확실성 및 외란이 존재하더라도 견실히 상태추정을 수행할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한 선박의 속도 및 유체력으로 인한 외란의 추정이 가능하며, 파랑으로 인한 고주파 운동응답을 여과시킴으로 불필요한 작동기의 동작과 과도한 연료손실을 방지할 수 있다. 특히 상태 추정기에 불연속 함수를 도입함으로 비선형성, 외란 및 불확실성에 대해 강인한 특성을 가지고 있다. 제안된 상태추정기에 기초하여 Observer backstepping 방법을 이용한 위치 제어기가 설계되었으며, 제어시스템의 안정성을 Lyapunov 법을 이용하여 검증하였다. 일련의 수치 시뮬레이션을 수행함으로서 제안된 상태추정기 및 제어기의 선박위치제어시스템으로서의 성능을 예증하였다.

In this paper, the performance of ranging measurement, which is generated using two receiver clock offsets in one receiver, was analyzed. A spoofer transmits a counterfeited spoofing signal which is similar to the GPS signal with hostile purposes, so the same tracking technique can be applied to the spoofing signal. The multi-correlator can generate two receiver clock offsets in one receiver. The difference between these two clock offsets consists of the path length from the spoofer to the receiver and the delay of spoofer system. Thus, in this paper, the ranging measurement was evaluated by the spoofer localization performance based on the time-of-arrival (TOA) technique. The results of simulation and real-world experiments show that the position and the system clock offset of the spoofer could be estimated successfully.

In order to discuss the availability of aerostatic guideways driven by the coreless linear motor to ultra precision machine tools, a prototype of guideway is designed and tested in this research. A coreless linear DC motor with the continuous force of 156N and a laser scale with the resolution of $0.01\mu\textrm{m}$ are used as the feeding system. The experiments are performed on the static stiffness, motion accuracy, positioning accuracy, microstep response and variation of velocity. The guideway also has $0.21\mu\textrm{m}$ of positioning error and $0.09\mu\textrm{m}$ of repeatability, and it shows the stable response against the $0.01\mu\textrm{m}$ resolution step command. The velocity variation of feeding system is less than 0.6%. From these results, it is confirmed that the aerostatic guideway driven by the coreless linear motion is very useful for the ultra precision machine tools.

The study on the high-speed machine tool is very important for the improvement of productivity since it can shortens cutting and non-cutting time. Especially, high speed of feed drive system is the major research field. In the industries of the advanced countries, the feed drive systems at the speed of 60 m/min have been already developed based on the high lead ball screws. In this study, a high speed feed drive system at the speed of 60 m/ min has been developed, and its movements characteris-tics are investigated. As the movement characteristics, positioning accuracy, angular accuracy, straightness and micro step-response are measured. Thermal characteristics of the system is also discussed. For measuring the movement characteris-tics, a laser interferometer, a memory-based Hi-coder and a cooling device are used. The experimental results confirm that the movement characteristics and the thermal behavior of the system are satisfactory in the aspect of accuracy and stability.
