Generic model control — A case study revisited

The application of the Generic Model Control (GMC) algorithm to the control of an evaporator has been reported recently by Lee et al. (1989). The results of their case study are claimed to demonstrate the superiority of the nonlinear GMC algorithm over conventional techniques including Dynamic Matrix Control. In this note it is shown that for the evaporator example the improved performance arises primarily from the full multivariable and feedforward nature of the control law, rather than from the nonlinear nature of GMC.

Straightforward modeling of dynamic I–V characteristics for microwave FETs

This work presents a straightforward approach aimed at modeling the dynamic I–V characteristics of microwave active solid‐state devices. The drain‐source current generator represents the most significant source of nonlinearity in a transistor and, therefore, its correct modeling is fundamental to predict accurately the current and voltage waveforms under large‐signal operation. The proposed approach relies on using a small set of low‐frequency time‐domain waveform measurements combined with numerical optimization‐based estimation of the nonlinear model parameters. The procedure is applied to a gallium nitride HEMT and silicon FinFET. The effectiveness of the modeling procedure in terms of prediction accuracy and generalization capability is demonstrated by validation of the extracted models under operating conditions different than the ones used for the parameters estimation. Good agreement between measurements and model simulations is achieved for both technologies and in both low‐ and high‐frequency range. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Computing a compact spline representation of the medial axis transform of a 2D shape

We present a full pipeline for computing the medial axis transform of an arbitrary 2D shape. The instability of the medial axis transform is overcome by a pruning algorithm guided by a user-defined Hausdorff distance threshold. The stable medial axis transform is then approximated by spline curves in 3D to produce a smooth and compact representation. These spline curves are computed by minimizing the approximation error between the input shape and the shape represented by the medial axis transform. Our results on various 2D shapes suggest that our method is practical and effective, and yields faithful and compact representations of medial axis transforms of 2D shapes.

An Adaptive and Optimized Switching Observer for Sensorless Control of an Electromagnetic Valve Actuator in Camless Internal Combustion Engines

In this paper, the design and operation of a special electromagnetic actuator as a variable engine valve actuator are presented. Further, this paper describes a feasible approximated velocity switching estimator based on measurements of current and input voltage to achieve sensorless control. The proposed concept allows a reduced‐order observer to be conceived and yields a specific control strategy with an acceptable performance. In general, this approach represents a viable strategy to build reduced‐order observers for estimating the velocity of systems through the measurement of input current and voltage. The robustness of the velocity tracking is explored using a minimum variance approach. The effect of the noise is minimized, and the position can be achieved through an adaptive and optimized structure by combining this particular velocity estimator and an observer based on the electromechanical system. Position control is achieved through an inversion of the model. This approach avoids a more complex structure for the observer and yields an acceptable performance as well as eliminating bulky position‐sensor systems. In addition, a control strategy is presented and discussed. Computer simulations of the sensorless control structure are presented in which the positive effects of the observer with optimized parameter setting are visible in the closed‐loop control.     

低品质因数谐振筒的谐振频率测量系统

谐振筒式密度计的测量原理为谐振筒的谐振频率会随筒内液体密度的变化而变化,从而通过测量其谐振频率来达到测量其密度的目的。但由于低品质因数谐振筒在谐振频率附近的幅度与其他频率的幅度区分度太小,导致谐振难以实现。因此如何使低品质因数谐振筒达到谐振状态并测得其谐振频率,是谐振筒式燃油密度传感器激励系统的关键问题。激励系统以DSP为主控芯片,运用椭圆拟合的方法解决了低品质因数谐振筒式密度计激励系统的关键技术问题-增益测量和相位测量,运用原位计算节省了DSP大量的内存空间,同时运算量又较小。仿真结果表明,增益测量精度优于0.05%,相位测量精度优于0.05%,高于实际需要。系统在测量并记录了增益、相位差之后,利用相关算法实现了自动增益调节和自动相位调节,并实现了谐振筒的谐振,测得了其谐振频率。
