Based on that model, optimal actuating variables for future timesteps are determined in every sampling step. Thus the MPC exhibits a better reference response compared to conventional control. The problem with MPC is the high computational cost and the associated long control cycle time. Thus MPC is unattractive for processes with small time constants as they are common in power converter and drive control systems. In this paper a Direct Model Predictive Control method (DMPC) for nonlinear systems with inherent output saturation is presented. In contrast to other Direct-MPC approaches, a more flexible gate-signal generation method which enables switching during the sampling period is utilized. In addition the switching frequency can be increased while maintaining the same controller cycle time. This results in a reduction of the current ripple. Since this approach is based on a computational efficient optimization algorithm, it provides real-time capability for online-MPC even with process time constants in the millisecond range enabling the use of MPC for control of permanent magnet synchronous motors with interior magnets (IPMSM).","PeriodicalId":176657,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123708112","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}

This power control algorithm can be used in scenarios where the transmitting station is not static and the distance between the transmitter and the receiving station changes with time. In addition to that there can be unwanted obstructions in between the transmitter and the receiver. Since the primary reason for drop in received signal strength is distance, it is important to select a set of power levels that will deliver the packets within a threshold error rate while saving energy. This adaptive algorithm does not use received signal strength indicator (RSSI) based beacon or probe packet for channel estimation nor listens for any busy channel before actual packet transmission. The hardware used for evaluating the protocol parameters is nRF24L01+ transceiver module from Nordic Semiconductor Inc. This chip is extremely cheap and the application of the adaptive power control protocol can reduce the overall deployment cost of sensor network. This algorithm is designed to meet the challenge of responding to an unknown and variable radio channel in an energy-efficient manner. The adaptive protocol uses past transmission experience or memory to decide the power level at which the new packet transmission will start. This lightweight protocol can be applied in mobile robots that collect data in real time from sensors and transmit to the base station.","PeriodicalId":176657,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116499774","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}

The motion and capability of resistance against manipulation forces of common endoscopes is restricted due to their flexibility. They tend to form loops and stress their surroundings. This paper proposes an active shaft concept based on a new actuation concept: the shaft is a hyper-redundant snake-like robot with binary electromagnetic actuators. This system combines good path following capabilities through actively controlling the whole endoscope body with good resistance with respect to manipulation forces through electromagnetism. The functional concept is presented and the influence of design parameters on kinematic characteristics such as workspace and radius of curvature is evaluated. Additionally, a set of kinematic design parameters is synthesized by minimizing the contouring error. Therefore, a path fitting algorithm is proposed.","PeriodicalId":176657,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"601 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123197457","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}

Sensed data can only be interpreted meaningfully when referenced to the location of the sensor, making localization an important area of research. In this paper, we have developed sound source localization system for our Fire Bird VI robot. Localization algorithms like cross correlation (CC), phase transform (PHAT) and maximum-likelihood (ML) are explored to find the direction of arrival (DOA) by estimating the time delay of arrival (TDOA) from the received signals of linear array microphones of Kinect sensor. The sound signals comprising of different sample pings and pause durations ranging from 3 ms to 3 s durations, frequencies varying from 100 Hz to 5 kHz are tested using different microphone pairs of Kinect in different azimuths (DOA) ranging from 0° to 180° across different distances like 1 m, 1.5 m and 2 m. The performance of localization algorithms is evaluated by computing the error between estimated DOA and actual DOA. It is found that PHAT algorithm outperformed others, however some errors are obtained due to inherent reverberation affects may have caused by room. The authors also present practical limitations which result in errors for different azimuths based on distance between microphone pairs and sampling frequency of signals.","PeriodicalId":176657,"journal":{"name":"2015 6th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA)","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124848919","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}

When mounting digital projectors on robots, this collaboration paves the way for unique Human-Robot Interactions (HRI) that otherwise would not be possible. Adding to robots the capability of projecting interactive Augmented Reality content enables new forms of interactions between humans, robots, and virtual objects, enabling new applications.

Efficient operation of these machines therefore contributes to a quick completion of the construction task. In particular, optimized control strategies can lead to improvements with regard to machine performance, fuel consumption, and pollutant emissions.

It is shown that a simplified nonlinear model with Hammerstein structure can accurately represent the underlying dynamics for the purpose of control. Based on this model, a nonlinear model predictive control approach including an optimization algorithm is developed in order to have the excavator perform a task given through target positions of the four motion axes.
