We derive a power control policy for a group of sensor nodes that are monitoring a real-time application sensitive to disconnections (outages) of the communication. Specifically, we suggest that the sensor nodes perform cooperative diversity while running a sleep discipline. After the description of a detailed model of the wireless links, we propose a power minimization algorithm with a constraint expressed in terms of outage probability. Suboptimal solutions are also discussed. Numerical examples are provided for various number of nodes, wireless scenarios and nodes activities. It is argued that nodes with reduced activity show better performance

In this paper, the results from a joint industry-academia project in industrial robotic force control are presented. The extension and implementation of an external sensor system for an industrial robot system, which can be used for high-bandwidth force control, are described. Results from two industrial applications using the system are presented, a stub grinding application using a new compliant grinding end-effector integrated with the robot controlsystem, and a deburring application with a stiff tool requiring high-bandwidth force control in six degrees of freedom. Using the system an easily reconfigurable control structure was achieved, which was able to control contact forces with a sampling bandwidth of an order of magnitude higher than for conventional robot controllers

On-line estimators for rotor resistance and magnetizing inductance are included in the controller to improve performance. Analysis, modeling and simulation results are presented to demonstrate the validity of the proposed method.

This paper deals with problems related to designing fault detection systems for linear uncertain systems, where model uncertainties are characterised by stochastic changes in the model parameters. First, statistical features of the residual signals generated by means of an observer are studied. Based on the achieved results, a residual evaluation strategy is then developed, which combines the norm-based and statistic testing schemes. The major mathematical tool used in our study is the well-established LMI-technique.

The public security has become an important issue in recent years, especially, the safe manipulation and control of vehicles in preventing the growing number of traffic accident fatalities. Accidents caused by drivers' drowsiness have a high fatality rate due to the decline of drivers' abilities in perception, recognition, and vehicle control abilities while sleepy. Preventing such an accident requires a technique for detecting, estimating, and predicting the level of alertness of a driver and a mechanism to maintain the driver's maximum performance of driving. The ICAFNN is a fuzzy neural network (FNN) capable of parameter self-adapting and structure self-constructing to acquire a small number of fuzzy rules for interpreting the embedded knowledge of a system from the given training data set. Our experiments show that the ICAFNN can achieve significant improvements in the accuracy of drowsiness estimation compared with our previous works

Eye movements have the goal of optimizing visual perception, therefore the investigation of eye motion strategies play an important role in the design of humanoid robot eye systems. Saccades in humans and primates is a significant class of ocular motions, which obey the so called Listing's Law, which constrains the admissible eye's angular velocities and ensure zero torsion during motion. In this paper we present a model of the eye plant proving that listing's law implementation is strongly related with the geometry of the eye and its actuation system (extraocular muscles). The proposed model has been used to provide the guidelines for the design of a tendon driven humanoid robot eye. Experimental tests, presented in this paper, validate the model by performing a quantitative comparison of the performance of the robot eye with physiological data measured in humans and primates during saccades
