An integrated system composed of guidance, navigation and control (GNC) system for autonomous proximity operations and the docking of two spacecraft was developed. The position maneuvers were determined through the integration of the state-dependent Riccati equation formulated from nonlinear relative motion dynamics and relative navigation using rendezvous laser vision (Lidar) and a vision sensor system. In the vision sensor system, a switch between sensors was made along the approach phase in order to provide continuously effective navigation. As an extension of the rendezvous laser vision system, an automated terminal guidance scheme based on the Clohessy-Wiltshire state transition matrix was used to formulate a "V-bar hopping approach" reference trajectory. A proximity operations strategy was then adapted from the approach strategy used with the automated transfer vehicle. The attitude maneuvers, determined from a linear quadratic Gaussian-type control including quaternion based attitude estimation using star trackers or a vision sensor system, provided precise attitude control and robustness under uncertainties in the moments of inertia and external disturbances. These functions were then integrated into an autonomous GNC system that can perform proximity operations and meet all conditions for successful docking. A six-degree of freedom simulation was used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the integrated system.

본 연구는 식품의 물성을 측정하기 위한 한 가지 방법으로 50 변위를 아주 정밀하게 직선적으로 측정이 가능한 linear proximity sensor(선형 근접 센서)를 활용하여 식빵의 굳기를 측정하였다 선형 근접 센서를 장착한 기구로 몇 가지 응력(0.376, 0.543, 0.769 kPa) 하에서 식빵의 온도와 수분 함량에 따른 변형을 컴퓨터 자동 자료 수집 장치를 통하여 on-line 상태로 매초마다 자료를 수집하여 컴퓨터 자료 분석 program으로 그래프를 얻었다. 식빵에 적용한 응력과 strain의 비율은 응력이 클수록 그 값이 커지는 비 선형 점 탄성체의 성질을 보였다. 이 측정 기구는 좁은 온도범위와 작은 수분함량의 차이에 따른 식빵의 굳기의 정도에 현저한 차이가 있음을 관찰할 수 있었다. 선형 근접 센서를 활용한 이 기구는 간단하면서도 정밀하게 동적으로 식품의 물성을 측정할 수 있었고, 높은 반복성을 나타내었다. 또한 수집된 자료는 점 탄성체의 특성을 설명하는 기계적인 모형으로 나타낼 수 있었다. Inokuchi의 방법을 적용하여 식빵의 물성을 모형화 하면 용수철과 완충 장치의 조합으로 나타내는 Burger's 모형에 잘 일치하였다. 본 측정 장치는 설치와 사용이 간단하여 식빵과 같은 연 식품의 물성을 측정하는데 활용이 용이하였다.

A novel resonance based proximity DC current sensor is proposed. The sensor consists of a piezo sensed and actuated cantilever beam with a permanent magnet mounted at its free end. When the sensor is placed in proximity to a wire carrying DC current, resonant frequency of the beam changes with change in current. This change in resonant frequency is used to determine the current through the wire. The structure is simulated in micro and meso scale using COMSOL Multi physics software and the sensor is found to be linear with good sensitivity.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether to take a medicine based on a measuring data using textile proximity sensor. We developed a proximity sensor of ring type using conductive textile, and acquired a data in accordance with the quantity of each pills. To evaluate our approach, we designed an experimental protocol that is counting pills subtracting the one which contains range of 0 T(Tablet, 4,100mg) from 20 T. And, The experiments were performed a nine times in the same way. In order to remove a noise and smoothen data, data preprocessing were performed using resampling method and moving average filter which has ten points. Then, we calculated a linear trend line equation, and analyzed a correlation between pill quantity and trend line equation. As a results, correlation coefficient was shown at 0.833 through using a Spearman's correlation method and we could be determined that data was continuos decreases when take a medicine.

In this paper, a small microwave sensor that can be applied to a wearable device is proposed because it can detect the heartbeat signal of a human body moving irregularly at low speed. It consist of balanced microstrip radiation patches in the 2.4 GHz ISM band, self-oscillation detection circuit, and feedback circuit. Based on the theoretical development and simulation, the validity of the proposed structure was confirmed and the manufactured prototype was tested. The board size of the circuit is as small as 65mm × 85㎟, and has a low power consumption of 60mW thanks to the simple RF circuit structure. Finally heartbeat signal has been obtained from a human body moving at low speed (0.5Hz) within a linear distance of 2 to 30mm close to the sensor and a lateral distance of ±20mm.

This paper deals with new type of active magnetic bearing (AMB) for the linear motors. We adopted optical sensing mechanism for the gap sensing. Using the laser and the PSD (Position Sensitive Device), the absolute rotor position is obtained independent of the profile of the guide rail. With this measurement, the rotor can be controller to follow the straight beam of the laser. Another advantage of optical sensing mechanism might be the elimination of the possible interference between the proximity sensor and the electro-magnet. By adopting the push-full actuating mechanism, the bearing stiffness is increased near the equilibrium position. For the simplicity, distributed control system is constructed. Eight independent PID control algorithm is used with the full order observer. Several simulation md test results are presented.

This paper proposes the Focused beamforming to estimate the location of target residing near to the observation platform in the underwater environment. The Focused beamforming technique provides the location of target by the coherent summation of a series of incident spherical waveforms considering distinct propagation delay times at the sensor array. But due to the movement of the observation platform and the variation of the underwater environment, the shape of the sensor array is no longer to be linear but it becomes distorted as the platform moves. Thus the Focused beamforming should be peformed regarding to the geometric shape variation at each time. To estimate the target location, the artificial image plane comprised of cells is constructed, and the delays are calculated from each cell where the target could be proximity to sensors for the coherent summation. After the coherent combining, the beam pattern can be obtained through the Focused beamforming on the image plane. Futhermore to compensate the variation of the shape of the sensor array, the paper utilizes the Nth-order polynomial approximation to estimate the shape of the sensor array obeying the water pulley modeling. Simulation results show the performance of the Focused beamforming for different frequency bands of the radiated signal.
