First, the hydraulic servo system has significant historical reliance. Since it is a powerful advantage for fractional calculus to describe the function which has significant historical reliance, the fractional order hydraulic servo system is adopted and the more actual fractional order hydro-turbine governing system is presented. Second, some definitions and properties are given, and the state trajectories of HGS with load rejection is observed. The simulation results show that the state trajectory of the system is not stable, so it is necessary to design a controller with better control effect. Third, based on the frequency distribution model, the equivalent transformation model of HGS is presented. A new finite time sliding mode control scheme is proposed for the stability control of the HGS with load rejection. Furthermore, the no chattering sliding mode controller and its detailed mathematical derivation are given. The system stability is proved, and the upper limit of HGS finite time stability is given. Finally, numerical simulations have verified the theoretical results. The controller can make the state trajectories of the HGS converge to zero in a finite time, and the control time is very short.","PeriodicalId":221388,"journal":{"name":"Volume 7: 17th IEEE/ASME International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications (MESA)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134579542","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}

Due to the influence of the crystal oscillator manufacturing process and environment, there is still synchronization error between reference clock and non-reference clock. To solve the clock synchronization problem, this paper proposes a clock drift compensation algorithm based on the idea of closed-loop control. By designing integer-order proportional integral (IOPI) and fractional-order proportional integral (FOPI) controllers, the synchronization error between slaves can be minimized. The IOPI and FOPI controllers designed in this paper are used to eliminate the drift error. This method improves the synchronization accuracy without bringing too much computational load. The results show that the proposed FOPI controller can effectively reduce the synchronization error with even better performance over the IOPI controller.","PeriodicalId":221388,"journal":{"name":"Volume 7: 17th IEEE/ASME International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications (MESA)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134601105","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 example, in the plasma processing technology widely used in semiconductor wafer processing, guaranteeing the maximum transference of power is the main goal. This paper presents the problem definition and guidelines for a radio-frequency (RF) impedance matching benchmark. This benchmark system we developed in public domain is useful in studying and evaluating various impedance patching algorithms fairly. The goal is to match the impedance of the source with its complex conjugate of the load in a minimum time. The reflection coefficient is used as an evaluation metric to measure the reflected power, which has to be zero to guarantee the maximum power transfer. Some impedance matching controllers proposed in the literature are tested as sample applications on this benchmark in a fair manner to check and evaluate its robustness and stability performance against different initial conditions, load conditions and perturbations on the impedance matching network control system. We also suggested a novel Feedforward Control (FF) profile generation method with a primitive sample feedback control strategy (proportional-integral (PI) controller) as a baseline reference for the benchmark.","PeriodicalId":221388,"journal":{"name":"Volume 7: 17th IEEE/ASME International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications (MESA)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115200703","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}

Fractional-order characteristics are commonly existed in practical systems. For fractional-order systems, it is more targeted to use the order information of the fractional-order model to design the active disturbance rejection controller, so as to obtain better control performance. A fractional active disturbance rejection controller composed of FOESO and FOPID (IDE-FOPID-FOESO) is proposed in this paper. The fractional-order extended state observer (FOESO) is designed based on the order information and the nonlinear state error feedback is replaced by the fractional-order PID controller (FOPID) whose parameters are obtained by the improved differential evolution algorithm (IDE). For IDE algorithm, the basis vector is randomly selected from the optimal individual population in the mutation strategy, and the scaling factor and cross-probability factor are adaptively adjusted according to the information of the successfully mutated individual in the search process to improve the exploration and mining capabilities of the algorithm.

The related literature of the current methane measurements and suppression of methane approaches are reviewed, and they are often limited due to the maintenance, installment, and calibration requirements of these sensing systems. To overcome these limitations, an emerging technology, UAVs, as considered mobile sensors to measure and control methane emissions, would extend detection range and acquired fine-grained information that helps to capture methane emissions in a much effective way. However, many challenges need to be explored: In the sensing field, the improvement of positive methane detection rate, which contradicts the methane diffusion in the atmosphere.

The recent advances in collaborative robotics led to the effective implementation of various control strategies able to improve interactions between robots and humans in unstructured environments. This represents an important socio-economic aspect: the robot does not replace the human being, but supports them in carrying out repetitive or dangerous tasks. In this scenario it is necessary to take into account different contrasting issues that derive from the necessity to grant the high performance typical of a robotic installation together with the safety levels required by a manual operation. In this paper we analyse the use case of a famous kitchen industry that decided to test the introduction of collaborative robotics to increase the flexibility and productivity of their production lines. A method, to define the design criteria of the Human-Robot Collaboration system (HRC), is proposed taking into account aspects related to both the safety and the ergonomics of the human operator, using a real-time mapping of the work area and the management of operations. The collaboration between robot and operator can be facilitated thanks to the use of an assistive device which, through the recognition of gestures, allows easy communication. Therefore, this paper aims to combine: operator safety and ergonomics, study of the workstation, sensor technologies, identification and tracing of gestures.
