Micro mobility in WiMAX is defined in IEEE802.16e standard. Fast Mobile IPv6 has been used as an IP layer protocol to support macro mobility in WiMAX network. The issue of how to apply IP layer protocol over IEEE802.16e to support seamless communication for real-time applications and high speed users remains an important challenge in mobility management. In this paper an analytical model is developed to evaluate total cost consisting of signaling and packet delivery costs of optimized fast handover scheme (OFHS) compared with RFC5270. In RFC5270, FMIPv6 has been used over IEEE802.16e protocol to support intra domain handover. OFHS uses function optimization, cross layer design and a multi pre- established tunnels concept to reduce handover latency of RFC5270. Results show that the OFHS increases probability of predictive mode compared with RFC5270 due to smaller handover latency. Even though OFHS needs extra signalling to pre-establish multi tunnel it has less total cost thanks to its optimized algorithm.

One of the important critical traffic controller challenges is the management of multi-intersection networks and real-time control system. In this paper, we develop a coordinated traffic signal control system based on a distributed self-organizing control. We propose a new modeling methodology which deals with left-right turns based on traffic signal phasing, multiway intersection and fuzzy logic to adapt the alternation of saturation flow in self-organizing control. We design a simulation which can generate real-time traffic flow sequence. Results show that the performance of the proposed traffic controller is better than the method in conventional traffic or previous model.

Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are critical to today's industrial facilities and infrastructures. SCADA systems have evolved into large and complex networks of information systems and are increasingly vulnerable to various types of cyber-security risks. Identifying and managing risks in SCADA systems has become critical in ensuring the safety and reliability of these facilities and infrastructures. Most of the existing research on SCADA risk modeling and management has focused on probability-based or quantitative approaches. While probabilistic approaches have proven to be useful, they also suffer from common problems such as simplifying assumptions, large implementation costs, and inability to completely capture all the important aspects of risk. This paper proposes a digraph model for SCADA systems that allows formal, explicit representation of a SCADA system. A number of risk management methods are presented and discussed for a SCADA system based on the proposed model. The methods are applied to a chemical distillation application as a case study, and shows promising initial results in identifying areas of system vulnerability.

This paper presents the modularized design and analysis of a phase-leg module based on the Power Electronics Building Block (PEBB) concept. 1200 V SiC MOSFETs and Schottky diodes are used as the main switches for the phase-leg to be used in 600 to 800 V, medium-power converters. The design aims at generalizing the module for various circuit topologies through smart control scheme, while the device switching speed is also pushed to the limit through optimized gate driver and circuit layout designs in order to achieve the high-frequency operation capability of the PEBB.

Abstract The performance of Networked Control systems (NCS) is directly affected mainly by time-varying network delays, so a specific approach to compensate their effects is usually required during the controller design process. This paper deals with the control of an experimental platform over the Internet by applying a novel fractional gain scheduling strategy which enables an existing fractional order PI controller for efficient control over the network. The proposed controller introduces delay-adaptive gains, which are optimal with respect to the current network condition. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed controller, providing significantly better system performance, especially when the network-induced delay is increased in certain circumstances.

In this article we present a mathematical model of a spincopter -an inherently stable and easy to control unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Although the devised model represents only the first approximation of spincopter's physics, it captures basic phenomena that are sufficient for derivation and testing of a simple control algorithm. Results obtained by simulations in Simulink presented herein, demonstrate efficient performance of the proposed simple controller structure. Further tests, including investigation of complex aerodynamics effects and hardware-specified limitations, have been done using X-Plan software package. Finally, the proposed controller has been tested experimentally. Both, Xplane and experimental results confirmed the outcome from Simulink.
