This paper presents an implementation of a new type of architecture to improve an overflow problem on the network buffer. Each receiver channel of network system stores the message in its own buffer. If some receiver channel receives many messages, buffer overflow problem may occur for the channel. This paper proposes a network controller that implements a receiver channel with shared-memory to save all of the received messages from the every incomming channels. The proposed architecture is applied to ARINC-429, a real-time control network for commercial avionics system. For verifying performance of the architecture, ARINC-429 controller is designed using a SOPC platform, designed by Verilog and targeted to Xilinx Virtex-4 with a built-in PPC405 core.

As many sensors and actuators are used in many automated system, various industrial networks are adopted for digital control system. In order to take advantages of the networking, however, the network implementation should be carefully designed to satisfy real-time requirements considering network delays. This paper presents the implementation scheme of a networked control system via Profibus-DP network. More specifically, the effect of the network delay on the control performance was evaluated on a Profibus-DP testbed, and a GA based PID tuning algorithm is proposed to demonstrate the fesibility of the networked control system.

Traffic analysis during past years used the Poisson distribution or Markov model, assuming an exponential distribution of packet queue arrival. Recent studies, however, have shown aperiodic and burst characteristics of network traffics Such characteristics of data traffic enable the scalability of network, QoS, optimized design, when we analyze new traffic model having a self-similar characteristic. This paper analyzes the self-similar characteristics of a small-scale mixed traffic in a network simulation, the real WAN delay time, TCP packet size, and the total network usage.

Communication network in KTX (Korea Train eXpress), the express train system, has to transmit status variables periodically within tens of seconds and real-time control informations which has short reply like status transition or alarm. KTX uses $Tornad^*$ (TOken Ring Network Alsthom Device) network for this purpose. This network can send and receive messages which enable express train applications embedded in intelligence boards to communicate by itself. Layer 1, 2 of $Tornad^*$ is implemented with differential manchester encoding and IEEE 802.4 standard(token bus standard) respectively. To implement layer 1 and 2, we implemented twisted pair modem using FPGA for layer 1 and used MC68824 from Motorola for layer 2. MC68824 bus arbitration and memory controller is implemented using CPLD.

In this paper, we design, implement and apply network physical layer to 100 BaseFx optical cable interface module based on industrial ethernet protocol which is physical layer of EtherCAT that has ensure its open standard ethernet compatibility which having been provided with real time of control in network of intelligent service robot, can be process numerous data to sensor and motor control system. Through BLDC motor control performance tests, we try to propose suitability as internal network of intelligent service robot and automation system.

This paper proposes a multiple switch mode power supply (SMPS) system based on the wireless network which controls variable load. The system enables power supply of up to 600W using 200W SMPS as a unit module and provides a controlling function of output power based on variable load and a monitoring function based on wireless network. The controlling function for output power measures the variation of output power and facilitates efficient power supply by controlling output power based on the measured variation value. The monitoring function guarantees a stable power supply by observing the multiple SMPS system in real time via wireless network. The performance of the proposed system was examined by various experiments. In addition, it was verified through standardized test of Korea Testing Certification. The results were given and discussed.

A high impedance fault(HIF) in a power system could be due to a downed conductor, and is a dangerous situation because the current may be too small to be detected by conventional means. In this paper, HIF(High impedance fault) and LIF(Low impedance fault) detection methods were reviewed. No single defection method can detect all electrical conditions resulting from downed conductor faults, because high impedance fault have arc phenomena, asymmetry and randomness. Neural network are well-suited for solving difficult signal processing and pattern recognition problem. This paper presents the application of artificial neural network(ANN) to detect the HIF and LIF. Test results show that the neural network was able to identify the high impedance fault by real-time operation. Furthermore, neural network was able to discriminate the HIF from the LIF.

In this paper, an attempt has been made to build and test self-configuring weather sensor networks and internet based observation system to gather atmospheric data. The aim is to provide integrated or real-time weather information in standard form using network data access protocol. This system was successfully developed to record weather information both digital as well as visual using sensor network and web-enabled surveillance cameras. These data were transformed by network based data access protocol to access and utilize for public domain. The competed system has been successfully utilized to monitor different types of weather. The results show that this is one of the most useful weather monitoring system.
