The shortage of nurses who assist operating surgeons exchange surgical instruments has been chronically severe. To compensate for this shortage, we have been proposing and developed three versions of the Scrub Nurse Robot (SNR) system that is capable of functioning as a skilled human scrub nurse in endoscopic and laparoscopic surgery. In this paper, we mentioned those three versions of SNR and its...
In this paper we present a calibration technique for sigma-delta analog-to-digital converters (ΣΔADC) in which highspeed, low-resolution flash subADCs are used. The calibration technique as such is mainly targeting calibration of the flash subADC, but we also study how the correction depends on where in the ΣΔ modulator the calibration signals are applied. It is shown that the calibration technique...
This paper presents an analysis of the accuracy of urban railway train's parking together with an elaboration of the system structure and principle of parking control in ATO mode. Through the construction of the model of pneumatic brake unit, the non-linear character of pneumatic brake unit is analyzed, and thereby the strategy of feedback control based on the train's position signal is given.

This paper investigates the feedback stabilization problem for networked control systems (NCSs) with unknown disturbances, where sensors and actuators communicate with a remote controller over a multi-purpose network. A new control scheme, which relies on both information-theoretic and control-theoretic tools, is proposed to stabilize linear discrete-time plants. A sufficient condition for stabilization...
A reputation service is an essential part of a reputation system, which collects, distributes, and aggregates feedback about service providers' past behaviour. The feedback, as a score, is given interactively or by a user or is derived from a monitoring process automatically. The reputation service accommodates for each service provider an accumulated score as its reputation, which is produced by...
This paper investigates the stabilization problem for stochastic linear systems with quantized output feedback control, in which sensors, controllers and plants are connected by communication channels. A quantization policy, which relies on changing the sensitivity of the quantizer on the basis of available quantized measurements, is proposed. It is derived that based on the policy, the dynamic output...
On the basis of robust H∞ control, the output feedback controller is presented for a class of dynamic time-varying delay network systems. The objective of designing robust H∞ controller is to achieve the desired queue size and to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the close-loop. The sufficient condition for the existence of a dynamic output feedback controller is presented via matrix inequalities...
A drive for Brushless DC motor (BLDCM), which is fully based on the adaptive fuzzy controllers, is presented in this paper. One of the fuzzy controllers is used in the speed feedback loop to guarantee the accurate speed control. The other fuzzy controller is used in the current feedback loop to track the current change. The proposed full adaptive fuzzy controllers have the characteristics of robustness,...
Scalar feedback control in a chaotic discrete prey predator system is investigated. The existence of the fixed points and the local stability of the positive fixed point are discussed. By using center manifold theorem, it is proved rigorously that the system undergoes the flip bifurcation near the unique positive fixed point. To eliminate the undesirable chaos induced by the flip bifurcation and stabilize...
In the paper, we firstly give a new accurate spheroid estimation formula of the globally exponentially attractive set for all positive parameters by constructing a generalized positive definite Lyapunov functions with radially unbound. Secondly, based on inequalities techniques, linear feedback control with one input or two inputs is proposed to realize the globally exponential synchronization of...
This paper considers a group of mobile agents moving in Euclidean space with switched network topology. We propose a feedback control algorithm that achieves velocity consensus with weighted directed switched velocity graph and stabilize all position neighboring agents inter-distance to a same desired value. The main results are that the position and velocity graph remaining connected are satisfied...
Recently, low-frequency instability has been observed in single-phase AC railway systems with modern railway vehicles, equiped with asynchronous motor and PWM line converter. Multiple approaches to study such a phenomenon have been introduced. One of the proposed impedance-based methods makes use of dq-decomposition of signals - a technique that is commonly used for three-phase systems. Such a representation...

The proposed algorithm in tracking has a satisfying performance in presence of unknown changes in the mass. It also shows robustness against...

An implicit performance index and an optimization strategy are proposed for the time-delay control scheme that can be effectively carried out to obtain the...

Based on these properties, effective feedback controllers are proposed for stabilizing chaos to unstable equilibria. In addition, based on Lyapunov stability theory, sufficient condition for the synchronization has been analyzed theoretically...

In present paper, the time-delayed feedback is coupled with a ratio-dependent predator-prey model of Holling □ type. This predator-prey system can be seen as a human-controlled biological system. Regarding the delay as parameter, we investigate the existence of local Hopf bifurcations. By using the Hassard method and the center manifold argument, we derive the explicit formulas determining the stability,...
