  • Modern version of advanced supersonic fighter have ATCS (Automatic Thrust Control System) to maximum flight safety, fuel efficiency and mission capability the integrated advanced autopilot system such as TFS (Terrain Following System), GCAS (Ground Collision Avoidance System) and AARS (Automatic Attitude Recovery System) and etc. This paper addresses the design and verification of ATCS based on advanced supersonic trainer in HILS (Hardware In the Loop Simulator) with minimum hardware modification to reduce of development cost and maintain of system reliability. The function of ATCS is consisted of target speed hold mode in UA (Up and Away) and angle of attack hold mode in PA (Power Approach). The real-time pilot evaluation reveals that pilot workload is minimized in cruise and approach flight stage by ATCS.

  • In this paper, an induction motor rotor fault diagnosis system using current signals, which are measured using the axis-transformation method is presented. Inverter-fed motor drives, unlike line-driven motor drives, have stator currents which are rich in harmonics and therefore fault diagnosis using stator current is not trivial. The current signals for rotor fault diagnosis need precise and high resolution information, which means the diagnosis system demands additional hardware such as a low pass filter, high resolution ADC, an encoder and additional hardware. Therefore, the proposed axis-transformation method is expected to contribute to a low cost fault diagnosis system in inverter-fed motor drives without the need for any additional hardware. In order to confirm the validity of the developed algorithms, various experiments for rotor faults are tested and the line current spectrum of each faulty situation, using the Park transformation, is compared with the results obtained from the FFT(Fast Fourier Transform).

  • Cosim (Hardware and Software Co-Simulator) is a JavaBeans-based simulation tool fur validating systems architecture and estimating performance of web applications. Cosim has four components: Modeler, Translator, Engine and Scenario. Users start from Modeler to describe systems architecture in UML(Unified Modeling Language) deployment diagram, and then specify hardware & software performance parameters such as execution delay, network topology, and frame size. All information specified on Modeler are sent to Translator, and then automatically converted to Java programs. Scenario is responsible to run the Java program and produce results in text reports and graphs. Developers can reduce development time and cost by validating systems architecture of web applications before the actual deployment.

  • In this paper, we develop control hardware such as an FPGA based general purposed intelligent controller with a DSP board to solve nonlinear system control problems. PID control algorithms are implemented in an FPGA and neural network control algorithms are implemented in a BSP board. An FPGA was programmed with VHDL to achieve high performance and flexibility. The additional hardware such as an encoder counter and a PWM generator can be implemented in a single FPGA device. As a result, the noise and power dissipation problems can be minimized and the cost effectiveness can be achieved. To show the performance of the developed controller, it was tested fur nonlinear systems such as a robot hand and an inverted pendulum.

  • The objective of the Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) system is to maintain vehicle stability under critical lateral motions, It has a good potential of becoming one of the chassis control necessities since the system can be realized with little additional cost on top of the ABS/TCS system, Developed in this research is a hardware-in-the-loop simulator for VDC with a valve control system that modulates the brake pressures at four wheels: Two VDC control logics, a simple control logic and an LQR control logic, have been developed and incorporated in the HILS system. Their performance under various driving conditions was tested in the HILS system and the results are presented.

  • In the new futre, computer system designers are expeted to bring more computer power to more people than is currently feasible. At the same time. it is reasonable for the computer system desigers to expect the computer architects to prodce hardware structures incorporating system algorithms of greated complexity so that more of the general instructions go to serving the users. In the past, the architect has delivered more computing to the user by constructing bigger and faster central processors, possibly connecting two or three CPUs together This approach has its limitations, in cost, complexity and reliability. In this paper, we first briefly discuss the hardware environment on which Hydra was implemented, then discuss the philosophy on which the system is based, and finally exhibit the protection mechanism.

  • This paper presents an investigation of a vehicle-to-vehicle distance control using a Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulation(HiLS) system. Since vehicle tests are costly and time consuming, how to establish a efficient and low cost development tool is an important issue. The HiLS system consists of a stepper motor, an electronic vacuum booster, a controller unit and two computers which are used to form real time simulation and to save vehicle parameters and signals of actuator through a CAN(Controller Area Network). Adoption of a CAN for communication is a trend in the automotive industry. Since this environment is the same as that of a real vehicle, a distance control logic verified in laboratory can be easily transfered to a test vehicle.

  • The Internet of Things (IoT) is growing exponentially, with the number of IoT devices multiplying annually. Accordingly, the paradigm is changing from cloud computing to edge computing and even tiny edge computing because of the low latency and cost reduction. Machine learning is also shifting its role from the cloud to edge or tiny edge according to the paradigm shift. However, the fragmented and resource-constrained features of IoT devices have limited the development of artificial intelligence applications. Edge MLaaS (Machine Learning as-a-Service) has been studied to easily and quickly adopt machine learning to products and overcome the device limitations. This paper briefly summarizes what Edge MLaaS is and what element of research it requires.

  • In recent times, Internet of Things (IoT) has attracted wide attention, and there are increasing requests for IoT application services. Open-Source Hardware (OSH) utilizes a variety of components that are created through the sharing of hardware design so that others developers can also work on it. The concept of "open source" that attracted attention in the software industry has been applied to the hardware field by the emergence of IoT market. The emergence of OSH that has the advantage of low hardware cost and faster development encourages the idea of a diverse IoT application services. In this paper, we describe an IoT application service system that is developed using the OSH platform Arduino and Raspberry Pi to process collection, exchange, and computation of the environmental information. The overall system architecture and hardware and software components are presented.
