This paper proposes another direction to implement a lightweight synchronization service for wireless sensor nodes. To this end, we present gradientdescent synchronization (GraDeS), a novel multi-hop time synchronization protocol based upon gradient descent algorithm. We give details about our implementation of GraDeS and present its experimental evaluation in our testbed of MICAz sensor nodes. Our observations indicate that GraDeS is scalable, and it has identical memory and processing overhead, better convergence time, and comparable synchronization performance as compared with the existing lightweight solutions.

This paper investigates the position tracking control problem for an induction motor with completely unknown nonlinearities. A novel control scheme is presented by using the gradient descent algorithm, adaptive backstepping technique, neural networks (NNs), and extended differentiators. Differing from some existing results which only designed the adaption of weights of NNs, our proposed control strategy provides training for all the parameters of NNs, including the basis functions' widths and centers. With the help of the gradient descent algorithm and Lyapunov stability criterion, the convergence of both the NN approximation error and the system tracking error can be guaranteed. Finally, a simulation example shows the advantages of our proposed method compared with direct adaptive NN control strategy.

This paper proposes a novel gradientdescent based maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) control algorithm for interior permanent magnet synchronous machines (IPMSMs) by using the measured speed harmonics. The proposed approach does not require machine parameters and thus is not influenced by the machine and drive nonlinearities. Hence, the proposed approach can ensure a robust MTPA control under different loading conditions. Specifically, in the proposed approach, a small q-axis harmonic voltage is injected into the machine to induce a small harmonic component in the machine speed. Based on the PMSM torque equation, the mathematical relation between the induced speed harmonic and the output torque is derived, which shows that the magnitude of the induced speed harmonic is proportional to the output torque of an IPMSM. Therefore, the speed harmonic is explored to seek the MTPA angle, in which the MTPA angle is found when the speed harmonic magnitude is maximized. In particular, the gradient descent algorithm is employed to detect the MTPA angle, which is computationally efficient and converges quickly. The proposed approach is evaluated with both simulations and experiments based on a laboratory IPMSM drive system.

Global Navigation Satellite Systems Reflectometry (GNSS-R) utilizes GNSS signals reflected off the Earth surface for remote sensing applications. Due to weak power of reflected signals, GNSS-R receiver needs to track reflected signals by open loop. The first step is to calculate the position of specular point. The specular point position error of the existing algorithm-Quasi-Spherical Earth (QSE) Approach-is about 3 km which may cause troubles in data post-processing. In this paper, gradient descent algorithm is applied to calculate position of specular point and the calculation is based on World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS 84) ellipsoid in geodetic coordinate. The benefit of this coordinate is that it is easy to investigate the effect of real surface's altitude. Learning rate-the key parameter of the algorithm-is adaptively adjusted according to initial error, latitude and gradientdescent rate. With self-adaptive learning rate strategy, the algorithm converges fast. Through simulation and test on Global Navigation Satellite System Occultation Sounder II (GNOS II), the performances of the algorithm are validated. The specular point position error of the proposed algorithm is about 10 m. The speed of the proposed algorithm is competitive compared with the existing algorithm. The test on GNOS II shows that the proposed algorithm has good real-time performance. (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of COSPAR.

Distributed learning based on the divide and conquer approach is a powerful tool for big data processing. We introduce a distributed kernel gradient descent algorithm for the minimum error entropy principle and analyze its convergence. We show that the L-2 error decays at a minimax optimal rate under some mild conditions. As a tool we establish some concentration inequalities for U-statistics which play pivotal roles in our error analysis. Published by Elsevier Inc.

Having the capability to estimate parametric and non-parametric uncertainties, this paper investigates a regressor-free adaptive model-reference scheme for impedance control of robotic systems interacting with an environment. Using the gradient descent algorithm for designing a fuzzy estimator makes the tune of controller's parameters possible in different physical situations and uncertainties. Thanks to the voltage control strategy and fuzzy systems, there is no need for designers to have the knowledge of robots and actuators' dynamics. In addition, the force feedback is not employed in the structure of control law. Using the Lyapunov-like stability analysis, not only the exponential convergence of error signal and its time derivative to zero are guaranteed in the decentralised form but also the boundedness of all signals is ensured. To confirm the efficiency of proposed control algorithm, several simulations as well as a comparison with a positioned-based impedance controller and a regressor-based adaptive impedance controller are conducted on a two-link planar robot manipulator considering a tunable desired trajectory and different stiffness of environment. Additionally, the proposed adaptive impedance controller is applied to a six degree of freedom revolute-joint manipulator to provide better evaluation.

In the last few years, Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA) has proven to be an effective method for electrical machines condition monitoring. Indeed, compared to vibration and temperature analysis, current measurement proves to be a convenient and non-invasive alternative. Moreover, it has proven to be a reliable method since many mechanical and electrical faults manifest as side-band spectral components generated around the fundamental frequency component of the motor's current. These components are called interharmonics and they are a major focus of fault detection using MCSA. However, the main drawback of this approach is that the interference of other more prevalent components such as the fundamental and noise components can obstruct the effect of interharmonics in the spectrum and may therefore affect fault detection accuracy. Thus, we propose in this paper an alternative approach that aims to decompose the different current components using a model based on a Vandermonde matrix, in order to monitor each component independently. Then, the tracking of each distinct component in time and spectral domains is implemented. This is achieved by estimating their respective relevant parameters using the gradient descent algorithm. This method has been favorably compared to an existing estimation algorithm (MUSIC) and its efficiency has been validated. The results of this work prove to be promising and establish the parametric tracking of the electrical current components using the gradient descent algorithm as a reliable monitoring approach.

This paper proposes a novel method of efficiency improvement in a vector controlled permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) through system level maximum efficiency point determination using current angle as a control variable. Loss models for the inverter and the motor fundamental and harmonic losses, which are capable of being solved online using available terminal measurements in the system are initially developed. The loss models and dc-link power measurement are then used to seek the maximum efficiency angle for different operating conditions using a gradientdescent optimization algorithm. The developed method is robust against changes in inductances due to saturation and cross saturation with loading conditions as well as temperature effects. The effectiveness of the developed method in improving the system efficiency is verified and compared with conventional maximum torque per ampere method. The proposed strategy has been validated on a laboratory interior PMSM, and the efficiency has been calculated for different speed and torque conditions. The experimental validations confirm the effectiveness of the proposed solution in improving the motor drive system energy efficiency.

In this Letter, the gradient descent algorithm is proposed to search for the optimal synchronization between a drive and a response hyperchaotic systems that are coupled with a scalar signal. The energy corresponds to the largest Lyapunov exponent of the response system is defined. Its convergence indicates that the corresponding Lyapunov exponent is always negative.
