The proposed methods are based on combining an extended Kalman filter (EKF) and an unscented Kalman filter (UKF) with Gaussian processes (GPs). One of the major advantages of these algorithms is that they do not need the system's model while they have an accurate and fast operation in fault detection. In order to show the promising performance of the proposed algorithms, they are applied to an aeroplane tracking system with a highly non-linear dynamics. Superiority of the GP-UKF over GP-EKF in fault detection is also shown based on the simulation results.","PeriodicalId":22127,"journal":{"name":"Systems Science & Control Engineering: An Open Access Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85362009","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, these machines are subjected to very serious phenomenon, such as the surge phenomenon, which presents the state of unstable operation that results in pulsations than can be the main cause of certain dangerous mechanical problem. Therefore, to solve this problem, it is necessary to establish a control law which can manage these devices, where the main goal is to obtain the best performance. On the other hand, it is obvious that to achieve this task, the models of this surge phenomenon have to be well determined earlier. This work proposes tests to validate models of the surge phenomenon in a centrifugal compressor set for anti-surge control when the operating mode is in the unstable regime. Real-time tests on the examined gas compression system were used to generate the experimental results. The developed surge model could better control the considered system.","PeriodicalId":22127,"journal":{"name":"Systems Science & Control Engineering: An Open Access Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76368592","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}

Simple analytical expressions are derived based on the describing function technique. The nonlinear device relay with hysteresis is used to extract process information that help in estimating the unknown process model parameters. Another advantage of relay with hysteresis is that it reduces the effect of measurement noise, which is common in process industries. To further eliminate the ill effects of noise, the Fourier series-based curve fitting technique is employed. Unlike many identification methods that require to solve simultaneously a set of nonlinear equations, the advantage of the proposed method is that the process model parameters are estimated using explicit analytical expressions. The validity and robustness of the proposed method is illustrated with the help of six typical transfer function models from the literature. Results with and without noise are compared using Nyquist's plots.","PeriodicalId":22127,"journal":{"name":"Systems Science & Control Engineering: An Open Access Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88295237","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, driving-related accidents and injuries associated with elderly drivers are also on the rise. To determine the causes of this trend, we researched existing vehicle systems that use different sensors and signals to promote safe driving. We found that although the systems alert drivers to potential collisions and assist them in finding a location easily, they were not practical enough to protect elderly drivers. For the most part, they were not created by people with driving difficulties caused by health problems, which in turn often afflict the elderly. To address this issue, we analysed the drawbacks of the current systems and used a focus group of people with body conditions that have declined due to age to discover the problems they encounter while driving. With the focus group, we used diverse research activities, such as surveys, observations, and interviews, to demonstrate how new system features (concepts) could be developed for the elderly. Finally, we proposed that adequate system features for the elderly would improve driving safety and provide a more enjoyable driving environment for this population.","PeriodicalId":22127,"journal":{"name":"Systems Science & Control Engineering: An Open Access Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88753248","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 particular, the identification of radar emitters has been important with the advances in radio frequency, electronics and control technologies. Jitter is an unintentional form of modulation that can have a wide variety of sources. Timing-related data errors will occur if jitter is beyond acceptable limits. Designers need a fast and easy way to obtain a complete characterization of clock jitter in the microprocessor controlled. To enhance the ability of specific emitter identification (SEI) to meet the requirement of modern ELINT, a novel identification approach for radar emitter signals based on type-2 fuzzy classifier is presented in this paper. In fuzzy type-2 sets, the uncertainty is represented as an extra dimension. In this article, we show how it is possible to reduce the effect of SEI-induced highly jittered radar emitters in ELINT, with the classifiers of type-1 and type-2 fuzzy logic. This work discusses the impact of unknown jitter sampling on signal estimation. Based on the ELINT feature extraction of radar emitter signals, the type-2 fuzzy classifier is applied to identification of radar emitters effectively. Experiment results shows that the approach can achieve high accurate classification even at higher error deviation level and has good characteristics of identification.","PeriodicalId":22127,"journal":{"name":"Systems Science & Control Engineering: An Open Access Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82510902","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}
