In this paper, we present a real-time stereo vision based pose and motion estimation system that will be used for landing an unmanned helicopter on a moving target such as a ship deck. The vision algorithm mainly consists of a feature extraction task and a pose and motion estimation task. The 2D planer target with regular features defined can significantly simplify the feature extraction task such as corner detection and feature points matching. To effectively estimate the distance between the camera carrier and target a stereo camera system is applied. By means of sub-pixel corner location the precisions of pose estimation and relative motion detection can be improved. We present results from semi-physical simulation which show that our vision algorithm is accurate and robust. The methodology provides an effective subsystem for the development of autonomous robot helicopter that will land on a given target under the guide of vision.

This paper addresses the problem of stability for two-dimensional systems with delays in the state. To solve this problem, the Lyapunov second method is used. The resulting condition is written in terms of linear matrix inequalities and it is dependent on the size of delays. This fact allows us to reduce the conservatism in the stability analysis of two-dimensional systems with state delays. A simulation example is given to illustrate the theoretical developments

The Ohmic contact and photoresponse of a ZnO single crystal film produced by MOCVD are investigated. The electrical and photoresponsive changes in the ZnO film due to the RF sputter deposition of SiO2 (antireflective coating) are also discussed. A nonalloyed Al/Au metallization scheme forms a good Ohmic contact on the n-type ZnO. RF sputter deposition of SiO2 induces defects which behave as carrier traps and prolongs response time. The photoresponse of the ZnO epitaxial film deteriorates with time.

This modeling study investigates the functional role of pacemaker neurons in generating stable rhythms in the pre-Botzinger complex, a subcircuit of the respiratory pattern-generating circuitry in mammals. While the presence of pacemakers within the network is without doubt, the percentage and significance of such pacemakers is still unresolved. Here we revisited earlier network simulations by varying the fraction of pacemaker and non-pacemaker neurons within the network, and quantifying the robustness of the input parameter space and range of frequencies output by the network. Stable network rhythms were possible even with no pacemakers. However, we found that a network of at least 50% pacemakers produced the greatest range of output frequencies and had the more robust input space

In this paper, we propose a fractional frequency synthesizer (FFS) based on an all digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL). A phase-frequency detector (PFD) is developed for reducing two independent comparisons and a dual-modulus frequency divider (FD) with divided by four or five is employed to perform variable fractions. Then a phase-frequency acquisition (PFA) is involved by the modified binary search algorithm (MBSA) with an initial half-step size to speed up for convergence. The frequency synthesizer is implemented with TSMC 0.35μm 1P4M CMOS technology. Experimental simulations show more encouraging results. The chip area is smaller to 1.3×1.3 mm2, locked time is less than 20 reference cycles, power consumption is only 15mW, and jitter is 90ps at 300MHz.
