  • Today, many electronic devices and ECUs (Electronic Control Units) are used in the automotive body control systems. It becomes more common that these devices exchange data with others through an in-vehicle network. Automobile manufacturers concentrate their efforts on development of body control systems based on networks in order to save cost and to increase flexibility and safety. OSEK/VDX has been founded as a joint project in German and French automotive industry aiming at an industry standard for an open-ended architecture for distributed control units in vehicles OSEK/VDX consists of Communication (specification of data exchange within and between control units), Network Management specification of Configuration determination and monitoring and Operating System (specification of realtime executive for ECU software ...

  • In this paper, we design a system that can control unmanned mobile objects through communication between unmanned mobile object and control server system using LoRa network which is a dedicated IoT network. It is more efficient when the unmanned mobile object performs the special work by installing the LoRa network applied to the unmanned mobile object control system from the small space house or office hospital to the factory. In this paper, we will discuss the design of a system that can improve the social utilization of unmanned mobile objects by making it possible to communicate the events that occur around other mobile objects from the simplification of the navigation path.

  • This paper describes a visual tracking control law of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV) for monitoring of structures and maintenance of bridges. It presents a control law based on computer vision for quasi-stationary flights above a planar target. The first part of the UAV's mission is the navigation from an initial position to a final position to define a desired trajectory in an unknown 3D environment. The proposed method uses the homography matrix computed from the visual information and derives, using backstepping techniques, an adaptive nonlinear tracking control law allowing the effective tracking and depth estimation. The depth represents the desired distance separating the camera from the target.

  • The design on the Telemetry Ground System for launch of KSLV(Korea Space Launch Vehicle) in the korean Space center has been conducted in this study. For the optimized system design, first of all, the system deployment plan reflecting the topographic and geographic environments of the space center and launch vehicle characteristics has been developed. The RF link budget analysis for the maximum tracking range, requirement for receiving subsystem including antenna subsystem, requirement for data processing subsystem are also analyzed based on the On-Board Telemetry characteristics and launch vehicle parameters. Based on those analysis, telemetry ground system containing tracking/receiving subsystem, recording subsystem and data processing subsystem, timing subsystem, calibration subsystem and monitoring and control subsystem are designed. Futhermore, the analysis for the maximum permissible data latency and communication protocol between each telemetry station and control center are conducted and the entire system is designed so that the major telemetry parameters selected to the best quality are provided in real time to the control center(RCC, RSC) for the launch mission operation.

  • Although automated metro subway systems have the advantage of operating a train without a train driver, it is difficult to detect an immediate fault condition and take countermeasures when an unusual situation occurs. Therefore, it is important to construct a maintenance information system (MIS) that detects the vehicle failure/status information in real time and maintains it efficiently in the depot of the railway's vehicles. This paper proposes a conceptual design method that realizes the interface between the train control system (TCS), the operation control center train control monitoring system (OCC-TCMS) console, and the MIS using wireless communication network in real-time. To transmit a large amount of information on 800,000 occurrences per day during operation, data was collected in a 56 byte data table using a data processing algorithm. This state information was classified into 4 hexadecimal codes and transmitted to the MIS by mapping the status and the fault information on the vehicle during the main line operation. Furthermore, the transmission and reception data were examined in real time between the TCS and MIS, and the implementation of the failure information screen was then displayed.

  • In this paper, we propose a security framework for a cluster drones network using the MAVLink (Micro Air Vehicle Link) application protocol based on FANET (Flying Ad-hoc Network), which is composed of ad-hoc networks with multiple drones for IoT services such as remote sensing or disaster monitoring. Here, the drones belonging to the cluster construct a FANET network acting as WTRP (Wireless Token Ring Protocol) MAC protocol. Under this network environment, we propose an efficient algorithm applying the Lightweight Encryption Algorithm (LEA) to the CTR (Counter) operation mode of WPA2 (WiFi Protected Access 2) to encrypt the transmitted data through the MAVLink application. And we study how to apply LEA based on CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) operation mode used in WPA2 for message security tag generation. In addition, a modified Diffie-Hellman key exchange method is approached to generate a new key used for encryption and security tag generation. The proposed method and similar methods are compared and analyzed in terms of efficiency.

  • A PC-based system for both monitoring and controlling SAUV is developed. The developed system is located on a ship and communicate with the SAUV through optical link through which the system sends motion command and receives video data, SSBL and Digital I/O data. The motion command includes velocity data and direction data. The overall system is developed with the intention of easy operation for operator and safe motion of SAUV. The easy operation is realized by GUI-based interface and the safe motion is realized by fault tolerant capability.

  • In this paper, we consider a cooperative monitoring network, which consists of a large number of UAVs, in order to promptly detect event in a disaster area. A command center may not be able to control each UAV individually due to resource constraints. Therefore, UAVs need to autonomously construct a mobile monitoring network in order to maximize monitoring coverage and to adapt the network formation according to environment changes in the disaster area. To that end, we propose multiple UAVs-based cooperative monitoring schemes that uses virtual forces. In this monitoring scheme, an effective monitoring is enabled by extending monitoring coverage using each UAV's circle movements. The UAVs-based monitoring network can also be splitted or merged in order to increase the monitoring effectiveness. Through simulations, we show that the proposed scheme can effectively monitor a large area and achieve a high event detection ratio.

  • In this paper, new tethered aerial robots including roaming tethered aerial robots (RTARs) for radioactive material sampling and stationary tethered aerial robots (STARs) for environment monitoring are proposed to meet extremely-long-endurance missions of nuclear power plants. The flight of the proposed tethered aerial robots may last for a few days or even a few months as long as the tethered cable provides continuous power. A high voltage AC or DC power system was newly adopted to reduce the mass of the tethered cable. The RTAR uses a tethered cable spooled from the aerial robot and an aerial tension control system. The aerial tension control system provides the appropriate tension to the tethered cable, which is accordingly laid down on the ground as the RTAR roams. The STAR includes a tethered cable spooled from the ground and a ground tension control system, which enables the STAR to reach high altitudes. Prototypes of the RTAR and STAR were designed and successfully demonstrated in outdoor environments, where the load power, power type, operating frequency, and flight attitude of the RTAR and STAR were: 180 W, AC 100 kHz, and 20 m; and 300 W, AC or DC 100 kHz, and 80 m, respectively.
