This paper is concerned with effective operating method of pneumatic on-off valves for improving position control accuracy, valve life-time and position settling time using modified pulse width modulation with dead-zone. The pneumatic system using on-off valves studied in this paper has advantage of simple construction and low cost compared with a system with servo-valves. The performance of proposed control system is investigated experimentally for the position control of a pneumatic cylinder using on-off valves. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm for valve operation can be used to obtain fast and accurate position control and to prevent on-off valves from unnecessary switching.

This study deals with a position control of an electro-hydraulic servo system which consist of cylinder and high speed on-off valves operated by microcomputer. The merits of PWM control of hydraulic equipment are the robustness of the high spee on-off valve, its low price and the direct control without D/A converter. In the PWM control of high speed on-off valve, the time lag and switching time existing between the input and output signals of valve are considered as demerit points. To get analytical results, the effects of these demerits have to be clarified in detail. The object of this study is to propose a mathematical model for the behavior of high speed on-off valve and to get analytical results of this system. The dynamic characteristics of this system is examined by digital computer simulation analytically and compared with experimental results to varify the proposed mathematical model.

All physical systems are nonlinear to some degree. The examples are relay, backlash, deadzone, saturation element and so on. In the linear control system design, it is useful method to restrict the nonlinearity to the linearity of system over the operation range. It is worth noting that nonlinearities may be intentionally introduced in to a system. A simple of an intentional non-linearity is the Bang-Bang controller which uses the On-Off relay. In this paper, an angular position servosystem made of a DC servomotor controlled by a microcomputer is discribed. Authors use two methods in the design of controller. The one is linear controller designed by the optimal feedback control theory only and the other is nonlinear controller designed by On-Off relay with optimal feedback control theory. To do the real time control, the controller is designed by using 16bit personal computer and A/D.D/A converter(12bit) is used in order to convert the signal. According to this way, the results from real time control are as follows. 2) Under the On-Off controller with hysterisis the influence of disturbance is considerably smaller than the linerar controller. 3) An increase in the sampling period has a destabilizing effect. 4)In the controller performance, the response time of the On-Off controller is longer than that of the linear controller. To close, we note that the On-Off controller with hysterisis is more attractive than the linear controller in the presence of the input limit.

This paper is concerned with effective operating method of pneumatic on-off valves for improving position control accuracy, valve life-time and position settling time using modified pulse width modulation with dead-zone (MPWMD). The pneumatic system using on-off valves has advantage of simple construction and low cost compared with a system with servo-valves. The performance of the proposed control method is investigated experimentally for the position control of a pneumatic cylinder using on-off valves. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm for valve operation can be used to obtain fast and accurate position control compared to the conventional PWMD algorithm. It is also shown that the use of the proposed MPWMD algorithm for the position control significantly reduces the number of valve switching and noise.

A new feedback control law design techniqed usign of-off thrusters for the rotational maneuver of a flexible arm is discussed in this study. a two state on-off thruster actuator is taken as a primary actuation device for theis study. The on-off thruster operation is emulated in conjunction with the conventioal minimum-time trackig control law. The actuator input region is divided into two separate parts ; one is constant input and the other is time varying tegion. the new control law has potential applicatioin for the relatively low frequency structure such as large flexible space structure being currently used in various space echnology areas.

본 논문에서는 더 높은 에너지 효율을 요구하는 전자 기기들의 사용에 따른 고전력 밀도 AC/DC adapter를 위한 향상된 제어 방법을 제안한다. PFC (Power Factor Correction) 토폴로지는 BCM (Boundary Conduction Mode)제어 방식을 적용한 부스트 토폴로지를 기본으로 하였으며, DC/DC 토폴로지는 50% 고정 duty법과 함께 새롭게 제안된 Off-time 제어법을 적용한 하프브릿지 토폴로지를 기본으로 하였다. 이는 반도체 소자와 마그네틱 소자의 크기를 줄이는데 용이하다. 85W급 AC/DC 어뎁터(18.5V/4.6A)를 설계하여 실험한 결과 90%의 효율과 $36W/in^3$의 전력밀도가 측정되었고 무부하시 전력 손실은 0.5W를 달성하였다.

Pressure control is possible driving a simple ON/OFF 3-way valve of hydraulic servo system by pulse width modulation signal. But the pressure varies according to the duty ratio and carrier frequency and repeated on-off action induces pressure fluctuation. So equations for mean pressure and ripple amplitude are theoretically derived as a function of on/off time, the system parameters which decide the pressure characteristics are arranged and they are verified by experimental study. As the result selection criteria for the major design parameters are established and the basic strategy to suppress the unnecessary fluctuation can be provided for a hydraulic pressure control system using these type of valves.

In case of high speed and high mobility multibody tracked vehicle, it is hard to develop the realtime simulation model for track tension control because of the hundreds of highly nonlinear equations. In order to design more trustworthy realtime simulator for track tension control, it is necessary to use off-line tracked vehicle model. In this study, a step by step procedure is presented to develop realtime simulation model based on off-line tracked vehicle model. Simulation results show that modified off-line multibody tracked vehicle model can be used for real time simulation to control the track tension.

An off-line programming, OLP, system is widely used in automation fines. To help an on-line robot system to carry out desirable tasks planned by the off-line simulation, an approach to the real-time communication is presented. The OLP system developed consists of a software, a host computer(PC), a SCARA robot body, four servo drivers, and four independent joint controllers. This study focuses on the software where real-time communication is included. The software, can be used in teaching, trajectory planning, real-time running, and performance evaluation. The evaluation of different control algorithms is one of the merits of the software. The software can give servo commands for task running. A comparison of generated and corresponding actual trajectories provides the evaluation of task performance. The safety, of the OLP system is ensured by alarming malfuntions of the system. The OLP system developed can reduce the teaching time and increase the user's convenience.

기존 서버 클러스터에서는 고성능을 보장하기 위해, 실시간 요청 수량에 관계없이 모든 서버를 항상 On 한다. 그 방법에서는 QoS를 보장하지만 일부 서버들이 Idle할 때 서버 전력을 낭비하게 된다. 서버들이 소모하는 에너지를 절약하기 위해, 서버가 필요하지 않을 경우 해당 서버의 전력을 Off 하게 하는 서버 전력 제어 방법이 제안되었다. 서버 전력 제어 방법은 서버의 Power가 실제로 어느 시점에 Off 되느냐에 따라 정적인 방법과 동적인 방법이 있다. 정적인 방법에서는 특정 서버가 Off 하기로 결정된 다음 일정 시간 지연 후 그 서버가 Off 된다. 동적인 방법에서는 그 서버에서 수행중인 모든 서비스가 종료된 다음에 해당 서버가 Off 된다. 이는 가변 시간 지연 후 서버가 Off 되는 방법에 해당된다. 정적 종료방식은 단점이 있다. 반복 실험을 통해 수작업으로 최적의 시간 지연을 알아내기 위해서는 많은 시간이 소요된다. 본 논문에서는 정적 종료 방식의 단점을 극복하는 동적 종료 방식을 제안한다. 제안된 방식은 최적의 지연 시간으로 자동적으로 접근하므로 좋은 전력 절약을 하면서 QoS를 보장하는 것을 가능하게 해준다. 30대의 PC 클러스터를 이용하여 실험이 수행되었다. 실험결과는 제안하는 동적 종료 방법이 기존의 정적 종료 방법과 비교할 때 에너지 절감측면에서는 비슷하지만 QoS 측면에서 우수함을 보여준다.
