In the steering control of mobile robot, the underlying dynamics of processes are often highly complex due to operating problems such as actuator constrains, time delay and disturbances. Because of these reasons, many control system of mobile robots require extensive retuning the control parameter and the worst cases may result in redesigning or change the control program and hardware. To solve the above mentioned problems, we use proportional control method. Based on the model proportional control method, we predict the path that the mobile robot will follow by using the current velocities of the right wheel and the left wheel which update the real-time current position of mobile robot. The model proportional method is to overcome time delay cause by slow response of the sensor and other dynamic processes. The outputs from the control are the velocity and angular velocity of mobile robot. From these velocity and angular velocity of mobile robot we determine the number of encoder pulses for the right wheel and left wheel. The number of encoder pulses for the right wheel and left wheel are input to the right DC motor and to the left DC motor of mobile robot to generate the velocity of each wheel. The proportional controller is used to produce the same speed of the right wheel and the left wheel in order to make the mobile robot move in a straight line. It also used to produce the desired speed of the right wheel and left wheel for steering control to make left or right turning.","PeriodicalId":282179,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE 7th International Colloquium on Signal Processing and its Applications","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122758107","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}

Landslides bring destructiveness and various losses to the human living. For the past 25 years, many rainfall induced landslides have occurred throughout our country that strikes the citizens, especially near the hillside areas whereby several properties damaged, human deaths and injured had been reported. Landslide monitoring scheme is therefore very crucial and should be done continuously. Various studies have been conducted to monitor the landslide activity using many approaches, such as classical geotechnical and geodetic surveying method. Each of these approaches posed their own advantages and limitations. This study discusses the effectiveness of satellite tracking data in landslide monitoring. This project area located at Section 5, Wangsa Maju, Kuala Lumpur. The monitoring network consists of four (2) control points namely M01 and G01, and eleven (11) monitoring. Five GPS surveys involving 11 GPS points have been conducted, namely 1st epoch - May 2005, 2nd - November 2005, 3rd epoch - May 2006, 4ft - November 2006 and 5ft - May 2007, respectively separate by using two GPS observation modes such as static (1st,2nd and 3rd epoch) and rapid static (4ft and 5ft epoch) mode. The results of GPS surveys show that the magnitudes of land movements in the study area vary from mm to cm level, depending on the location and the observatiuon period in relation with rainy and dry season. The paper will also discuss the constraints faced by GPS survey method in the landslide prone area environment, which is usually hilly and sloping sharply.","PeriodicalId":282179,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE 7th International Colloquium on Signal Processing and its Applications","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115984012","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 method can be used to reduce the decoding time and reduce the decoding power consumption by skipping the decoding process of some frames and reducing the frame rate. With the temporal prediction, it is different from the certain frame skipping scheme in the temporal scalable decoding process with frame rate down conversion method (TSDP) [2]. This method considers the video quality loss when the current frame is skipped and chooses the skipping scheme which causes minimum cost, so this method can be also used in the common video cases. And compares with the temporal scalable decoding process with frame rate down conversion method, the video quality (PSNR) is improved about 0.01 – 2.4 dB in the experimental common video cases by using the temporal prediction method. And can reduce the decoding time based on the number of the skipped frames, and it can get about 65% – 86% reduction which compares with the frame rate reduction in the experimental cases.","PeriodicalId":282179,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE 7th International Colloquium on Signal Processing and its Applications","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128331920","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}
