The velocity measurement error in the velocity-aided SDINS on the maneuvering vehicle is unavoidable and degrades the performance of the SDINS. The characteristics of the velocity measurement error can be modeled as a random bias. This paper proposes a new method for estimating the velocity measurement error in the SDINS. The generalized likelihood ratio test is used for detecting the error and a modified separate-bias Kalman filter in the feedback configuration is suggested for estimating the magnitude of the velocity measurement error.

Simultaneous measurement technique for temperature and velocity fields near a heated solid body has been constructed. The measurement system consists of a 3-late CCD color camera, a color image grabber, a 1ighting system, a host computer and a software for the whole quantification process. Thermo Chromic Liquid Crystals (TCLC) was used as temperature sensors. A neural network was used to get a calibration curve between the temperature and the color change of the TCLC in order to enhance the dynamic range of temperature measurement. The velocity field measurement was attained by the use of the fray-level images taken for the flow field, and by introducing the cross-correlation technique. The temperature and the velocity fields of the forced and the natural convective flows neat the surface of a cartridge heater were measured simultaneously with the constructed measurement system.

The objective of this paper is to propose a new velocity measurement method for an electro-mechanical fin actuator. The model of the electro-mechanical fin actuator includes uncertainties such as unknown disturbances and parameter variations in flight condition. So, an electro-mechanical fin actuator system needs robust control algorithm which requires not only position information but also velocity information. Usually, analog tachometers have been used for velocity feedback in an electro-mechanical fin actuator. However, using these types of sensors have problems such as the cost, space, and malfunction. These problems lead to propose a new velocity measurement method using linear type Hall-effect sensor. In order to verify the proposed method, several experiments are performed using Model Following Sliding Mode Controller(MFSMC). It is shown that the MFSMC with a new velocity measurement method using linear type Hall-effect sensor can satisfy the requirements without using of velocity sensor.

In most of motor-driven motion control systems, an encoder is used to measure a position of the motor and the velocity information is obtained by measuring the position increment over a sampling period. The quantization effect due to limited resolution of the encoder induces some measurement errors, and consequently causes deterioration of the motion performance especially in low velocity. In this paper, we propose a gain-scheduled acceleration estimator which works in wider velocity range than the original acceleration estimator. We investigate and analyze characteristics of the velocity measurement mechanism which takes into account the quantization effect of the encoder. Next, we introduce the acceleration estimator and propose a gain-scheduled acceleration estimator. The bandwidth of the gain-scheduled acceleration estimator is automatically adjusted by the velocity command. Finally, its performance is evaluated by simulation and experiment, and the results are compared with those of a conventional method and the original acceleration estimator.

A flow measurement system which is able to measure the instantaneous three-dimensional velocity components and the pressure distribution of fluid flows is developed using a digital image processing system and the stereoscopic photogrammetry. This system consists of two TV cameras a digital image processor and a 32-bit microcomputer. The capability of the developed system is verified by a preliminary test in which three-dimensional displancements of moving particles arranged on a rotating plate are tracked automatically. The constructed system is through the measurement and spatial pressure distribution is also obtained. The measurement uncertainty of this system is evaluated quantitatively. The present technique is applicable to the measurement of an unsteady fluid phenomenon especially to the measurement of three-dimensional velocity field of a complex flow.

This paper presents a systematic method measuring a velocity disturbance to design the robust seek loop system of optical disk drives. The velocity disturbance caused by the rotation of a disk has a greater influence on the performance of the seek control loop as the rotational speed increases. Thus, it needs to measure the extent of the velocity disturbance and design the seek control loop based on the measured data. The measurement method of the velocity disturbance is a real-time . method using a measurable velocity and a velocity controller output and is a robust method considering actuator uncertainties. The loop gain adjustment algorithm is introduced to compensate for the actuator uncertainties. The proposed method is implemented by an experimental digital system and is evaluated through an experiment.

수자원 관리를 위하여 활용되고 있는 레이다 센서는 도플러 주파수를 추정함으로서 표면 유속을 측정한다. 따라서 도플러 주파수 추정치에서의 높은 신뢰성 및 정확도가 요구된다. 그러나 유속 관련 도플러 스펙트럼은 측정 환경 및 기상 상태에 따라 매우 다양한 형태를 나타낼 수 있다. 따라서 현재 레이다 센서에서 사용되는 기존의 유속정보 추출 알고리즘의 정확도 및 신뢰성에 심각한 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 방법을 개선할 수 있는 도플러 스펙트럼 첨두치 주파수 추정에 의한 유속 정보 추출 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 기존 방법에 비하여 더 정확한 유속의 측정이 가능함을 보여준다.

We measured the permittivity and electromagnetic wave propagation velocity of used insulation oil with wide frequency range including ultra-high frequency by time domain reflectometry. The permittivity or propagation velocity is essential for locating discharge faults of oil filled power transformer. We derived 2.21 as a permittivity and $2.03{\times}10^8 m/s$ as a velocity from the measurement of pulse travelling time along a coaxial line filled with used insulation oil or air. The permittivity measurement system we designed shows high measurement accuracy and the convenience for field use.

A modified one-sided measurement technique is proposed for Rayleigh wave (R-wave) velocity measurement in concrete. The scattering from heterogeneity may affect the waveforms of R-waves in concrete, which may make the R-waves dispersive. Conventional one-sided techniques do not consider the scattering dispersion of R-waves in concrete. In this study, the maximum energy arrival concept is adopted to determine the wave velocity by employing its continuous wavelet transform. Experimental study was performed to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. The present method is applied to monitor the strength development of early-age concrete. A series of experiments were performed on early-age concrete specimens with various curing conditions. Results reveal that the proposed method can be effectively used to measure the R-wave velocity in concrete structures and to monitor the strength development of early-age concrete.

Digital holographic particle velocity measurement system can be a promising optical tool for the measurements of three dimensional particle velocities. In this research, validation experiments for the digital holographic particle velocity measurement system were conducted with measuring the velocities of glass beads on a rotating disk. Uncertainty analysis was performed to identify the sources of all relevant errors and to evaluate their magnitudes. The measurement results of particle velocities obtained with digital holographic method are compared reasonably well with the known values within acceptable range of errors. Moreover, digital holographic method showed better performance compared with that of optical holographic system.
