In this paper, we develop a co-design methodology of stochastic optimal controllers and network parameters that optimizes the overall quality of control (QoC) in networked control systems (NCSs). A new dynamic model for NCSs is provided. The relationship between the system stability and performance and the sampling frequency is investigated, and the analysis of co-design of control and network parameters is presented to determine the working range of the sampling frequency in an NCS. This optimal sampling frequency range is derived based on the system dynamics and the network characteristics such as data rate, time-delay upper bound, data-packet size, and device processing time. With the optimal sampling frequency, stochastic optimal controllers are designed to improve the overall QoC in an NCS. This co-design methodology is a useful rule of thumb to choose the network and control parameters for NCS implementation. The feasibility and effectiveness of this co-design methodology is verified experimentally by our NCS test bed, a ball magnetic-levitation (maglev) system.

This paper deals with the experimental study of the vibration suppression of the smart structures. First, a new high-speed active control system is presented using the DSP320C6713 microprocessor. A peripheral system developed is composed of a data acquisition system, A/D and D/A converters, piezoelectric (PZT) actuator/sensors, and drivers using PA 95 for fast data processing. Next, the processing time of the peripheral device is tested and the corresponding test results are provided. Since fast data processing is very important in the active vibration control of the structures, achieving the fast loop times of the control system is focused. The control algorithm using PPF in addition to FIR filter is implemented. Finally, numerous experiments were carried out on the aluminum plate to validate the superior performance of the vibration control system at different control loop times.

A vacuum chamber temperature control system of Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) storage ring is a subsystem upgraded PAL control system, which is based upon Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) [1]. There are two control components, data acquisition system (SA120 data logger), development control system IOC (Input/Output Controller) at the storage ring of PAL. There are 240 vacuum chamber at the storage ring. It was a very important problem to solve how to monitor such a large number of vacuum chamber temperature distributed around the ring. The IOC connect MODBUS/JBUS field network to asynchronous serial ports for communication with serial device. It can simultaneously control up to 4 data acquisition systems. Upon receiving a command from a IOC running under Windows2k through the network, the IOC communicate through the slave serial interface ports to SA120. We added some software components on the top of EPICS toolkit. The design of the vacuum control system is discussed. This paper describes the development vacuum chamber temperature control system and how the design of this system.

품질특성치의 중심과 산포를 하나의 통계량으로 관리하는 단일 관리도는 품질특성치가 정규분포를 따른다고 가정하지만 실제 데이터들은 왜도가 양수이거나 첨도가 양수인 경우가 많다. 본 논문에서는 품질특성치가 정규분포를 따르지 않은 경우에 가짜 알람률 (false alarm rate; FAR)을 이용하여 단일 관리도 성능을 비교하였다. 고려된 단일 관리도는 반원관리도, 최대 관리도 및 평균제곱오차관리도이며 모의실험 결과, 공정이 안정 상태인 경우는 최대관리도의 성능이 좋았으며, 공정이 불안정상태인 경우에는 왜도가 양수일 때 최대관리도, 첨도가 큰 경우에는 평균제곱오차 관리도의 성능이 우수하였다.

Cooling tower is an important equipment of the cooling systems for large buildings like factory and department store. Water used for cooling in cooling tower is reused continuously. If the water is polluted, corrosion and scale can happen at equipments and pipes. In order to prevent this problem, it is necessary to control the water quality using chemicals. To control the water quality, an automatic control system is designed, fabricated, and experimented. The control system is based on an imbedded microcontroller. Relays are used for power driving, an LCD and LED for display, and RS485 for remote data acquisition. Monitoring program is also developed for easy man-machine interface and extraction of data stored in the imbedded processor and EEPROM. The control system calculates amounts of chemicals necessary using sensor data and injects the chemicals into the cooling tower on proper time. The developed water quality control system is expected to reduce cost of maintenance and extend the lifetime of the cooling systems with low cost.

In this paper, a real-time communication method using a PICNET-NP (Plant Instrumentation and Control Network for Nuclear Power plant) is proposed with an analysis of the control network requirements of DCS (Distributed Control System) in nuclear power plants. The method satisfies deadline in case of worst data traffics by considering aperiodic and periodic real-time data and others.

In this paper, we introduce a new dimming control method in a visible light communication (VLC) system wherein byteinversion is adopted for flicker-free transmission. In the VLC transmitter, the original and the inverted data were sent sequentially and the remnant time in one period was used for the dimming control of the LED light. In the VLC receiver, only the original data was recovered using the gating signal whose width was the same as the length of the original data. In our experiments, the dimming control ranges were measured to be 22%-53%, 11%-76%, and 5%-88% of the CW LED light when the data rates were 9.6, 19.2, and 38.4 kbps, respectively. In this system, we used a 240-Hz sync pulse whose period was 4.16 ms, which was shorter than the maximum flickering time period of 5 ms that is generally considered to be safe. This configuration is very simple and useful in constructing indoor wireless sensor networks using the flicker-free LED lamps with dimming control capability.

이벤트 기반 무선 센서 네트워크에서 주기적인 센싱 데이터에 비해 높은 전송률과 우선순위를 갖는 이벤트 데이터가 병목 구간에 집중되면 네트워크 혼잡이 발생한다. 혼잡이 지속되면 대부분의 데이터가 손실되는 네트워크 붕괴 현상이 나타난다. 전송률 조절 기법은 이러한 네트워크 붕괴 현상을 막기 위한 해결책 중 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크에서의 혼잡 제어를 위해 각 노드에서 혼잡 패턴에 따라 자식 노드의 전송률을 조절하는 기법을 제안한다. 실험을 통해 제안하는 기법이 효과적으로 혼잡을 제어하고, 기존의 전송률 조절 기법들보다 더 많은 이벤트 데이터를 전송함을 확인하였다.
