This paper addresses the longitudinal vehicle behavior before and during lane changes. Hereby, it is desired that the lane-changing vehicle simultaneously follows its predecessors on the lanes before and after the lane change. Specifically, the lane changing vehicle should keep a safe distance to the rearmost predecessor vehicle, while maintaining a small inter-vehicle spacing and supporting driving comfort. To this end, the paper develops an extension of cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC). Instead of following a single vehicle as in the classical realization of CACC, it is proposed to follow a virtual vehicle that is evaluated based on distance measurements and communicated state information from the predecessor vehicles. A simulation study demonstrates the practicability of the proposed method.

Phase-sensitive detection of motor fault signatures in the presence of noise Akin, Bilal; Orguner, Umut; Toliyat, Hamid A.; Rayner, Mark (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008-06-01) In this paper, a digital signal processor-based phase-sensitive motor fault signature detection technique is presented. The implemented method has a powerful line current noise suppression capability while detecting the fault signatures. Because the line current of inverter-driven motors involve low-order harmonies, high-frequency switching disturbances, and the noise generated by harsh industrial environment, the real-time fault analyses yield erroneous or fluctuating fault signatures. This situation becom...
Quantitative measure of observability for linear stochastic systems Subasi, Yuksel; Demirekler, Mübeccel (Elsevier BV, 2014-06-01) In this study we define a new observability measure for stochastic systems: the mutual information between the state sequence and the corresponding measurement sequence for a given time horizon. Although the definition is given for a general system representation, the paper focuses on the linear time invariant Gaussian case. Some basic analytical results are derived for this special case. The measure is extended to the observability of a subspace of the state space, specifically an individual state and/or t...
Performance evaluation of piezoelectric sensor/actuator on active vibration control of a smart beam Şahin, Melin (SAGE Publications, 2011-01-01) In this paper the performance of a piezoelectric sensor/actuator pair and self-sensing piezoelectric actuator on the investigation of vibration characteristics and active vibration control of a smart beam are presented. The performance of piezoelectric patches on actuation and sensing is evaluated by investigating the vibration characteristics of the smart beam via various excitation mechanisms and transduction systems. For active vibration suppression of the smart beam, robust controllers are designed and ...
Experimental results on adaptive output feedback control using a laboratory model helicopter Kutay, Ali Türker; Idan, M; Hovakimyan, N (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2005-03-01) Experimental results are presented that illustrate a recently developed method for adaptive output feedback control. The method permits adaptation to both parametric uncertainty and unmodeled dynamics, and incorporates a novel approach that permits adaptation under known actuator characteristics including actuator dynamics and saturation. Only knowledge of the relative degree of the controlled system within the bandwidth of the control design is required. The controller design was tested by controlling the ...
UKF based in-flight calibration of magnetometers and rate gyros for pico satellite attitude determination Söken, Halil Ersin (Wiley, 2012-05-01) In this paper an unscented Kalman filter based procedure for the bias estimation of both the magnetometers and the gyros carried onboard a pico satellite, is proposed. At the initial phase, biases of three orthogonally located magnetometers are estimated as well as the attitude and attitude rates of the satellite. During the initial period after the orbit injection, gyro measurements are accepted as bias free since the precise gyros are working accurately and the accumulated gyro biases are negligible. At t...
