The numerous studies on UAVs cooperative air-to-ground mission controlling have been reported, but few have considered the impact of the communication instability due to electromagnetic interference (EMI) which is common in many air-to-ground applications. Under the influence of EMI, the air-to-ground mission stages are represented as a dynamic combination of several communication-available and communication-unavailable stages. Traditional cooperative surveillance algorithms cannot handle such situations well. In this study, we presented a method which based on Voronoi diagrams to solve the impact of communication outages, and an attention mechanism ant-colony optimization (AACO) algorithm was proposed for UAV path-planning control in air-to-ground surveillance missions. The controlling strategy is adaptively updated by introducing an attention mechanism for regular instruction information, a priori information, and emergent information of the mission to satisfy the mission target. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves better search performance than traditional algorithms in scenarios which include communication-available and communication-unavailable situations.","PeriodicalId":129856,"journal":{"name":"2022 22nd International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS)","volume":"376 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131723869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For operations such as cutting, the robot end-effector with a laser cutter should maintain a constant distance from the physical wall of RVI. So, a virtual wall near the physical wall is assumed. The end-effector should remain on the virtual wall for optimal cutting which is achieved through force tracking impedance control. In this paper, initially sliding mode control (SMC) was implemented but resulted in chattering in force tracking response. Therefore, super twisting sliding mode control (STSMC)-based force tracking impedance control is designed and implemented for enhanced end-effector force tracking. The control input of the STSMC is composed of a continuous and discrete component. Continuous control input regulates control performance against uncertainties, whereas discrete provides a switching algorithm. STSMC then eliminates the chattering effect and reduces the force tracking error. The performance of SMC-based and STSMC-based impedance control is compared, and the comparison shows that the STSMC-based impedance control provides enhanced performance.","PeriodicalId":129856,"journal":{"name":"2022 22nd International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS)","volume":"92 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134520690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, CAN has a disadvantage in that it cannot send and receive large amounts of data quickly due to its limited speed and short data transmission size. The CAN FD (Controller Area Network with Flexible Data rate) was developed to compensate for this disadvantage, and it has the advantage of being able to communicate at more fast speed and eight times the data transmission size compared to CAN. These CAN and CAN FD are vulnerable to message replay attacks because they do not provide data authentication. In this paper, secure communication is implemented by applying CMAC (Cipher based Message Authentication Code) based on CAN and CAN FD. Also, the performance of the two secure communications is compared and analyzed. To implement CMAC, HW-based AES-128 (Advanced Encryption Standard) CBC (Cipher Block Chaining) algorithm is used. This paper compares the performance of Secure CAN and CAN FD communication based on CMAC and can help to check communication traffic of ECU (Electronic Control Unit) in advance when applying the function in the real vehicle system.","PeriodicalId":129856,"journal":{"name":"2022 22nd International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133046132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we analyze the operating points with the thermal comfort requirement. Afterwards, we linearize the nonlinear dynamic model to a linear time-varying model. In particular, we specify that the operating point of the open-loop HVAC system satisfies the thermal comfort condition. This makes the predicted mean vote (PMV) equal to zero or nearly to zero. Subsequently, we calculate the zone temperature, the zone humidity ratio, and the volumetric flow rate. When considering the time-varying disturbance profiles, it appears that the operating points are time-varying. We observe that the coefficient of performance (COP) and the operating points are time-varying which lead to time-varying model. Moreover, we design supervisory control (SC) and model predictive control (MPC) for linear time-varying model. In the SC design, we aim to find the optimal reference zone temperature which is used as the reference signal for MPC. In the MPC design, the objectives are twofold. First, the zone temperature tracks the reference signal. Second, both electrical energy cost and deviation of desired thermal comfort are minimized. The computer simulation shows that MPC of time-varying HVAC system yields the best reference tracking. In addition, it reduces total electrical energy cost the most. We conclude that the optimal temperature reference can be effectively applied to the building HVAC systems while the occupants feel comfortable and the total electrical energy cost is the lowest.","PeriodicalId":129856,"journal":{"name":"2022 22nd International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS)","volume":"2015 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127670688","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As results, (i) we measured the local optic flow divergence and the local translational optic flow respectively as the subtraction and the sum of the two optic flow magnitudes perceived (ii) we validated experimentally the visual odometer on a hexarotor oscillating up-and-down while following a 50m-long circular trajectory under three illuminance conditions (117lux, 814lux and 1518lux). The measured optic flow divergence was used to estimate the flight height by means of an Extended Kalman Filter. The estimated flight height scaled the measured translational optic flow, which was integrated to perform minimalistic visual odometry.","PeriodicalId":129856,"journal":{"name":"2022 22nd International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS)","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127700045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To use the BCI system in daily life, the BCI user should be able to achieve various tasks such as moving, text typing, and arm movements. In this paper, we propose a multi-functional BCI method that can predict various intentions simultaneously. To classify multiple intentions, we proposed two prediction models using Neural Networks (NN) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) models. To evaluate the proposed BCI system, the classification accuracy of the model was measured and compared using steady state visually evoked potential (SSVEP), sensory motor rhythm (SMR), and both of them (Multiple Intention). The average prediction accuracies were 22.46% in NN, 55.86% in CNN. These results indicate that the proposed multi-functional BCI can predict multiple intentions. It also means that users of the proposed BCI system can control various electric devices simultaneously.","PeriodicalId":129856,"journal":{"name":"2022 22nd International Conference on Control, Automation and Systems (ICCAS)","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116342751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is logical to assume that cultivation efficiency could be improved by altering the height of the light source as the plants grow.
