With the implementation of the principle of the Internet of Things raises demands for new services as well as technical requirements that enable their implementation. One of the fields is the localization of wounded in mass disasters. Currently, the identification is performed by paper / plastic triage tags, which are used to label wounded victim at first contact with rescue unit based on the state of the causality. Automatic identification using active RFID technology is in such a case a solution which permits remote technically sophisticated surveillance of the situation. It is advantageous to use active RFID tags as a low-power transmitter, which is an immense advantage comparison with GPS technology. Lifetime of such tag can be several months. Managed active RFID tags can localize wounded objects within the range of a few hundred meters in free space and indicate the degree of severity of the injury of individual causalities. RFID readers, i.e. locators placed in that area, evaluate the direction of arrival of each tag and transmit obtained information to the computer system, which calculates the position of each RFID tag using sophisticated signal processing methods. This information can be displayed in a specific map including classification of tags, their movement or history. This paper focuses on the testing and experimental verification of such a system. The results of the experiment verify the concept of an RFID locator with achieved accuracy of 2.1 m in the area of 100 × 100 m.

In this paper, we focus on robust decentralized controller design for Benchmark PID problem: nonlinear drum boiler, presented recently by Morilla [4]. For the control systems, used in practice, the most accurate mathematical model is needed, which includes the important features of the real system, and yet make it as simple as possible. When designing robust controllers, it is necessary to identify the system in several working points and determine the system model including uncertainties. In this paper we also deal with the identification of nonlinear model of the boiler, which has 3 inputs and 3 outputs. In our case, we chose one of the inputs as a constant with two variable values for working points, so we have our model reduced to 2×2. For identification we used three operating points, which we have chosen from the linear part from input output characteristics. After obtaining the transfer functions and respective uncertain model, various robust decentralized controller design methods are compared. The obtained results are verified on nonlinear model (based on real data).

Some electronic modules perform the monitoring and recording of electrical events in power plants. Such equipment is based on signals provided by transducers that measure the process parameters. For example, PC-08/104 Process Control is an equipment which performs monitoring and recording of specific parameters when transient electrical events occur, for the post-failure analysis and diagnosis. This programmable digital equipment is versatile and can be connected to an IBM compatible PC or process server. The results obtained in hydropower plants in Romania - where PC-08/104 equipment runs for more years - confirm its utility and robustness. The paper is focused on the results obtained in monitoring and recording more specific parameters of transient electrical events using PC-08/104 digital equipment in several hydropower plants. The analyzed results are based on the processing of analog and digital signal samples acquired at successive moments. Eight analog inputs and sixteen digital inputs are acquired. The analog inputs are the voltages of phases R, S and T, currents of phases R, S and T, homopolar voltage and the homopolar current. The main specific parameters to be monitored are the root mean square value and phase shift of each analog input, status of each digital input or logical functions associated, active and reactive powers, monitored electrical line impedances. The waveforms of all analog input signals, the status of each digital input signal and the phase diagram of the currents and voltages for the R, S, T phases are also displayed.

Clock and/or frequency synchronization is a common requirement in modern distributed measurement and control systems, such as Internet of Things (IoT). The required precision is application dependent; however, the possibility of sub 1 microsecond precision provided by low-cost advanced IEEE 1588 implementations sets the industry standard today. The performance and price of IEEE 1588 implementations are primarily defined by the master clocks and their actual installation and configuration. The paper investigate how master clock architectures, i.e., how the master clock is connected to the reference clock, influence price and performance; and in addition, it also details how the architecture effects installation and configuration requirements. The primary factors of investigation are ambient temperature and delay compensation required due to signal transmission time. The paper also introduces the architecture and performance of a Linux based open source/hardware prototype master clock developed by the author.

This paper aims at using imperialist competitive algorithm based fuzzy logic (FICA), to control an automatic voltage regulator (AVR) in order to increase the stability and obtain more controllability of the system. For the stabilization of the automatic voltage regulator a proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID) was used. We applied the FICA, which is the combination of the imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) and fuzzy logic to determine the optimal coefficients of the proportional-integral-derivative controller (PID). The new algorithm solves the main problems of the imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA), which are entrapped in local optimum points and low-speed convergence. This way, the control of the effective parameters of the (ICA) likes as the assimilation coefficient and the cost of colonies is performed with high accuracy and speed. We will show that the results obtained with the proposed intelligent algorithm (FICA), have higher convergence rate and more accuracy in comparison with the other algorithms.

Recently running climate changes have resulted in an increased incidence of natural phenomenon that can adversely affect the life of people - so called flash floods. A typical characteristic of these floods is their very rapid onset, relatively short peak and rapid retreat. This short period varies and might range somewhere between few minutes up to one hour. In addition, these flash floods often affect areas without recent precipitations.

This paper describes the development of a gyroless attitude determination system that can rely on magnetometer and sun sensor measurements and achieve good accuracy. Vectors coming from the selected sensor data and developed models can be placed in Wahba's problem. The system uses Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) method to minimize the Wahba's loss function and determine the attitude of the satellite. In order to obtain the attitude of the satellite with desired accuracy an extended Kalman filter (EKF) for satellite's angular motion parameter estimation is designed. The EKF uses this attitude information as the measurements for providing more accurate attitude estimates even when the satellite is in eclipse. The “attitude angle error covariance matrix” calculated for the estimations of the SVD method are regarded as the measurement noise covariance for the EKF. The SVD and EKF algorithms are combined to estimate the attitude angles and angular velocities, respectively. The algorithm can be used for low-cost small satellites where using high power consuming, expensive, and fragile gyroscopes for determining spacecraft attitude are not reasonable.

Traffic controlling of signalized intersections is realized through signal plans. Different approaches can be used if we want to design the signal plan. The approach using mathematical programming represents one of them. Using mathematical programming we can get an optimal signal plan; we can also use several mathematical models that differ in objective functions. It is obvious that the signal plans may differ if we use different objective functions. Our paper describes selected practical examples of using the approach to signal plan design. On the basis of the examples it is shown that the mathematical modelling approach is very effective.

The aim of the present paper is to numerically solve a class of systems of conservation laws, modeled by hyperbolic partial differential equations (hPDEs). Our approach considers a novel computational procedure which relies on using the repetitive structure induced by a convergent Method of Lines for assigning a cell-based recurrent neural network to perform the numerics. Emphasizing that the Method of Lines is more a concept than a specific procedure, our approach ensures the convergence of the approximation and preserves the basic properties of the solution of the initial hPDE problem, i.e. existence, uniqueness, data dependence and stability in the sense of Lyapunov. The procedure is applied on a bilinear control system arising from the process of combined heat-electricity generation. Simulation results are provided.
