Specifically three kind of Arduino Board (Arduino UNO, Arduino Mega y Arduino Due) and two ESP based board (ESP8622 and ESP32) are evaluated and compared. The comparison is based on the execution time of mathematical operations and a function required for data acquisition or digital control and includes (i) digital ports writing, (ii) analog signal acquisition, (iii) execution of mathematic operation in integer and float format, and (iv) the execution of the data processing code. The execution time is measured by using a methodology which is simple to implement for any other digital device. Because of each platform uses its own Arduino DUE library to generate the assembly code for its own microcontroller, the instructions adopted for both generating the actions to measure and generating the testing signals are written using Arduino IDE commands and using instructions that any entry-level user may adopt. In conclusion, from the experimental results it is observed the high difference in the execution time of the different platforms, especially between ESPx boards and Arduino boards.","PeriodicalId":223855,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE CHILEAN Conference on Electrical, Electronics Engineering, Information and Communication Technologies (CHILECON)","volume":"554 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115136975","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 most common techniques allow to control a system around an operation point, based on the disposition of a linearized model of the system around said point. In general, good results can be achieved when the system is close to the operation point. This paper shows a proposal for an Advanced Control course based on this technique, which allows the student to progress gradually in the way to perform the control, the solutions that can be given to the most common problems, to end up understanding the reasons apply non-linear control techniques when the system requirements should be extended to conditions far from the operation point. The control design techniques studied includes pole-placement by state feedback, control based in state observers, and Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR).

Many researches held on QoSensing improvement in terms of coverage and connectivity enhancement. But these works fail to provide balance between various QoSensing metrics. To address this problem, brief analysis of QoSensing metrics such as coverage, connectivity, delay, energy efficiency, and throughput is provided in this paper. Based on critical analysis, this paper presents an efficient Four Tier (4Tier) method which is comprised with following four phases: (i) clustering phase, (ii) sleep scheduling phase, (iii) coverage enhancement phase, and (iv) routing phase. In clustering phase, Neuro-Fuzzy based Affinity Propagation (NFAP) algorithm is involved to cluster sensor nodes in the network. Energy Efficient Sleep/Listen Scheduling (ESLS) algorithm is employed in sleep scheduling phase which results in enhanced energy efficiency. To overcome coverage problem in WSN, Hybrid Analytical Hierarchy Process (HAHP) is involved in third phase. In order to improve data transmission, Delay Tolerance Multipath Routing (DTMR) algorithm is incorporated in routing phase. Involvement of four efficient phases results in improved QoSensing in WSN. We analyzed our prosed 4Tier method in both Star and Mesh topology in order to evaluate the QoSensing metrics in both topologies. Our extended simulation result shows promising results in coverage rate, connectivity ratio, energy efficiency, delay, and throughput.","PeriodicalId":223855,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE CHILEAN Conference on Electrical, Electronics Engineering, Information and Communication Technologies (CHILECON)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125966691","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 proposed methods have been implemented in a walking hexapod robot provided with a number of sensors. Both, the robot's sensorial information and a quantitative measure of the robot's performance are obtained. This information is used for detecting, identifying and classifying obstructive conditions that have a strong impact on the robot's performance. Once the cause of a lack of progress in the robot's mission has been identified, suitable compensatory actions are found, executed and recorded. Then, when previously experienced detrimental situations arise, the associated compensatory measures are immediately taken without involving a searching process. As a result, the recovery from abnormal conditions is accelerated and the robot can promptly continue with its mission. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed methods, a number of different sets of experiments addressing the robot's hardware faults, abnormal situations generated in the robot's environment and a combination of both, were conducted. In this process, two indicators were utilized: the number of attempts before a correct identification of the robot's hardware fault was achieved, and a discrepancy measure. Results showed a good identification rate inside the range of considered abnormal situations.","PeriodicalId":223855,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE CHILEAN Conference on Electrical, Electronics Engineering, Information and Communication Technologies (CHILECON)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122148740","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}
