When we visualize the sound field radiated from a spherical sound source, spherical acoustic holography is proper among acoustic holography methods. However, there are measurement errors due to sensor position mismatch, sensor mismatch, directivity of sensor, and background noise. These errors are amplified if one predicts the pressures close to the sources: backward prediction. The goal of this paper is to quantitatively examine the effects of the error due to sensor position mismatch on acoustic pressure estimation. This paper deals with the cases of which the measurement deviations are distributed irregularly on the hologram plane. In such cases, one can assume that the measurement is a sample of many measurement events, and the cause of the measurement error is white noise on the hologram plane. Then the bias and random error are derived mathematically. In the results, it is found that the random error is important in the backward prediction. The relationship between the random error amplification ratio and the measurement parameters is derived quantitatively in terms of their energies.

Based on the cable-extension transducers, a new technique for two dimensional position measurement is developed in this paper. This new technique includes the use of two such transducers and the planar position is determined through triangulation. This paper also presents uncertainty analysis results for establishing sensor design specifications. An actual prototyped sensor system is built and its accuracy is verified through h\both experiments with coordinate measurement machines and its application to the real-time control of a high load wheeled mobile robot. This new type of position sensor can be easily used in a wide variety of automation applications in industry for two dimensional position measurements with high accuracy over a relatively large range, and it is both cast effective and robust against hostile environments.

Beam position measurement system can not only provide the beam position monitoring, but also be used for global orbit correction to reduce beam loss risk and maximize acceptance. The Beam Position Monitors (BPM) are installed along the synchrotron to acquire beam position with the front-end electronics and data acquisition system (DAQ). To realize high precision orbit measurement in the main heavy ion synchrotron and cooling storage ring of heavy-ion research facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL-CSRm), a series of alignment and calibration work has been implemented on the BPM and its DAQ system. This paper analyzed the tests performed in the laboratory as well as with beam based on the developed algorithms and hardware. Several filtering algorithms were designed and implemented on the acquired BPM raw data, then the beam position and resolution were calculated and analyzed. The results show that the position precision was significantly improved from more than 100 ㎛ to about 50 ㎛ by implementing the new designed filtering algorithm. According to the analyzation of the measurement results and upcoming physical requirements, further upgrade scheme for the BPM DAQ system of CSRm based on field programmable gate array (FPGA) technology was proposed and discussed.

The swirl ratio of a charge in the cylinder was estimated by calculating the ratio of the rotary speed of charge which could be simulated from the rotary speed of paddle in the swirl measurement apparatus, to the engine speed which could be calculated by measuring intake air flow rate. The automation of the swirl ratio measurement for cylinder head was achieved by controling both valve lift in cylinder head and a suction pressure of surge tank using two step-motors. The number of measurement position for calculating mean swirl ratio was varied by adjusting the interval of valve lift. The mean swirl ratio with varying the number of measurement position showed nearly constant value. Two measurement methods for measuring the swirl ratio were compared, one was to control the suction pressure of the surge tank with PID (proportional, integral, differential) mode with by-pass valve controlled by the step motor and the other did not control the surge tank pressure by fixing the by-pass valve. The difference of the mean swirl ratio between the two measurement methods showed nearly constant value with varying the number of measurement position. This means that the w/o PID control method could be preferred to the PID control method which has been used, due to the simpleness of the swirl measurement.

A variable air-gap type system is widely used for inductive precision position measurement systems. This type transducer has high sensitivity but lacks a linear measurement range due to structural nonlinearity. Furthermore, as measurement range increases, linearity error is also increased. The alternative is a variable overlap-area type system. The sensitivity of this type is determined by the initial air-gap dimension, keeps the original value and does not deteriorate linearity in spite of the variations of the measuring range.

The architecture and functions of a prototype free ranging AGV system are described in this paper. The system has single tricycle configuration - the front wheel is driven and steered simultaneously. The primary position measurement device of this system is the redundant encoder system - an absolute encoder for the steering angle measurement of the front wheel, two incremental encoders for the measurement of the rear wheel rotations. The secondary position measurement device is implemented to reduce the accumulatad error in encoder measurements. The extended Kalman filter is suggested to combine the conflict measurement data for the proper position estimation.

A practical method is proposed to improve hit probability of the digital gun fire control system, when the measured rate of the tracking sensor becomes biased under some operational situation. For ground moving target it is shown that the well-known Kalman filter which uses position measurement only can be optimally used to eliminate the rate bias error. On the other hand, for 3D moving aircraft we present a new algorithm which incorporate FIR-type filter, which uses position and rate measurement at the same time, and the fixed-lag smoother using position measurement only, and show that it has the optimal performance in terms of both estimation accuracy and response time.

The aim of this study was to analyze the reliability of an ultrasonic device(SDM) measuring soft tissue thickness in relation to tooth position, and to find factors which can influence the reliability. The results showed that 1. measurement error was the largest in the maxillary second molar position and the smallest in the mandibular central incisor position. 2. in a box whisker plot, the difference between two measurements was most widely distributed in molar positions. 3. in Pearson correlation analysis, the relationship between two measurements was the highest in the maxillary lateral incisor position and, the lowest in the maxillary second molar, mandibular first and second premolar position. 4. a stepwise multiple regression analysis could explain the difference of two measurements with various independent variables in 29.7% (P<0.0001). Gingival thickness was the only variable influencing the measurement difference in a statistically significant level(P<0.0001). It can be concluded that its high reliability, ease to use and patient comfort justified the application of the SDM in measurement of soft tissue thickness.

In this paper, we develop the displacement measurement system of multiple moving objects based on image processing techniques. The image processing method adopts inertia moment theory for obtaining the centroid measurement of the targets and basic processing algorithm of gray, binary, closing, labeling and so on. To get precise displacement measurement in spite of multiple moving targets, a CGD camera with zoom is used and the position of camera is changed by a pan/tilt system. The fiducial marks on the fixed positions are used as the sensing points for the image processing to recognize the position errors in direction of XY-coordinates. The precise alignment device is pan/tilt of XY-type and the pan/tilt is controlled by DC servomotors which are driven by a microprocessor. Morover, the centers of fiducial marks are obtainted by an inertia moment method. By applying the developed precise position control system for multiple targets, the displacement of multiple moving targets are detected automatically and are also stored in the database system in a real time. By using database system and internet, the displacement datum can be confirmed at a great distance and analyzed. Finally, the effectiveness of developed system is shown in experimental results and realized the precision about 0.12[mm] in the position control of XY-coordinates.

This paper describes a navigation system for an autonomous vehicle in outdoor environments. The vehicle uses vision system to detect coordinates and DGPS information to determine the vehicles initial position and orientation. The vision system detects coordinates in the environment by referring to an environment model. As the vehicle moves, it estimates its position by conventional DGPS data, and matches up the coordinates with the environment model in order to reduce the error in the vehicles position estimate. The vehicles initial position and orientation are calculated from the coordinate values of the first and second locations, which are acquired by DGPS. Subsequent orientations and positions are derived. Experimental results in real environments have showed the effectiveness of our proposed navigation methods and real-time methods.
