In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant controller for compensating measurement noise of feedback sensor. Because control systems operate via feedback sensor's signal, the measurement noise in sensor's signal results in performance degradation or even system failure. Therefore, control systems often demand on compensating measurement noise. Our controller is equipped with a compensator in order to reject or reduce the effect of measurement noise in feedback information. Our proposed method is verified via simulation and experiment for a Ball and Beam system.

Routing overlay offers an ideal methodology to improve the end-to-end communication performance by deriving a backup path for any node pair. This paper focuses on a challenging issue of selecting a proper backup path to bypass the failures on the default path with high probability for any node pair. For existing backup path selection approaches, our trace-driven evaluation results demonstrate that the backup and default paths for any node pair overlap with high probability and hence usually fail simultaneously. Consequently, such approaches fail to derive a robust backup path that can take over in the presence of failure on the default path. In this paper, we propose a three-phase RBPS approach to identify a proper and robust backup path. It utilizes the traceroute probing approach to obtain the fine-grained topology information, and systematically employs the grid quorum system and the Bloom filter to reduce the resulting communication overhead. Two criteria, delay and fault-tolerant ability on average, of the backup path are proposed to evaluate the performance of our RBPS approach. Extensive trace-driven evaluations show that the fault-tolerant ability of the backup path can be improved by about 60%, while the delay gain ratio concentrated at 14% after replacing existing approaches with ours. Consequently, our approach can derive a more robust and available backup path for any node pair than existing approaches. This is more important than finding a backup path with the lowest delay compared to the default path for any node pair.

The use of ultrasound pulsed Doppler systems has become increasingly popular due to the advantages of easy measurements of blood velocity, volume blood blow, and irregularities of the circulatory system. However, the 2-D Doppler systems have several problems, such as range ambiguity, low signal to noise ratio, and slow frame rate. The mean frequency aliasing problem originating from the pulse repetition frequency is one of major limitations in pulsed Doppler systems. A conventional approach to resolve this problem is tracking the mean frequency close to and beyond the Nyquist frequency along the temporal axis. In this paper, a new concept of tracking the mean frequency along the spatial axis is proposed. The proposed technique is fault tolerant by nature and more suitable for multi gate and 2-D Doppler system than conventional methods.

The computer network plays an important role in modern digital controllers within a safety system of a nuclear power plant. For the reliable and realtime data communication between controllers, this paper proposes a modified high-reliable MVB(multi-function vehicle bus) as a main control network for a safety system of a nuclear power plant. The proposed network supports the state-based communication in order to ensure the deterministic communication latency, and very fast network recovery when the bus master fails compare to the standard MVB. This paper also shows the implementation results using a FPGA-based testbed.

Recently, as the size of genetic knowledge grows faster, automated analysis and systemization into high-throughput database has become hot issue. One essential task is to recognize and identify genomic entities and discover their relations. However, ambiguity of name entities is a serious problem because of their multiplicity of meanings and types. So far, many effective techniques have been proposed to analyze documents. Yet, accuracy is high when the data fits the model well. The purpose of this paper is to design and implement a document classification system for identifying entity problems using text/data mining combination, supplemented by rich data mining algorithms to enhance its performance. we propose RTP ost system of different style from any traditional method, which takes fault tolerant system approach and data mining strategy. This feedback cycle can enhance the performance of the text mining in terms of accuracy. We experimented our system for classifying RB-related documents on PubMed abstracts to verify the feasibility.

A graphic display and operator console system is developed for monitoring the operation of power plant. It has multiprocessor structure using VME bus and common memory. The graphic monitoring system is applied to fault tolerant control system for enhancing reliability of boiler analog controller. As a result, it displays all the operating date as color graphic images with 14 pages. Moreover, it can transfer the operator commands to the other micro-processors through common memory.

The space systems are being operated in a uncertain space environment and are desired to have autonomous capability for long periods of time without frequent telecommunications with the ground station. At the same time, requirements for new set of satellite system set of projects/systems calling for "autonomous" operations for long unattended periods of time are emerging. Since, by the nature of space systems, it is desired to perform its mission flawlessly and also it is of extreme importance to have fault-tolerant sensors and actuators for the purpose of validating science measurement data for the mission success. This studies focused on the identification/demonstration of critical technology innovations that will be applied to the Validation Control System.

In this paper, a fault tolerant control problem is considered for a class of nonlinear system formulated in a gain scheduling form with LMI-based H-inf control technique Key benefits of this proposed scheme are demonstrated in the simulation of an electromagnetic suspension system with actuator and/or sensor failures, and the method is compared with the convensional state-feedback and output-feedback controller. It is clearly observed that the proposed control scheme shows an improved output performance in comparision with convensional methods.
