In traditional coordinated traffic signal control on an urban road network, the following two problems have been known. First, the conventional method involves a time lag between traffic measurement and signal control. Second, an abrupt switching of control parameters throws the traffic flow into disorder.This paper proposes a new approach to avoid these problems. We increase the frequency of switching. The control parameters are switched as frequent as every two cycles. At the time of switching, minor variations of the on-going plan are generated. For each variation of plan, traffic delay at each intersection is predicted based on measured traffic data at up-stream detectors. Then the plan minimizing the delay is chosen to be the control parameters in the next cycle. In order to evaluate the validity of this approach, experiments were carried out using a traffic simulator. The experiments indicate that the proposed method reduces the queue length significantly, compared with the conventional method.

Recently in the conurbation area, traffic congestion on railway system is very terrific and the commutation area have been spread out year after year. So it is required to reduce traffic congestion and to shorten time to arrive at the destinations. Recent development of information system in a railway system makes it possible to know more accurate passengers demand in real time. In this paper, we propose a method to make more flexible train schedule based on passengers demand. The proposed method can make a train schedule to satisfy the most amount of demand and make the total trip time of passengers smallest. By setting number of trains and their start times, stop patterns of trains are automatically generated and evaluated by train traffic simulations and passengers flow simulations. These simulations are executed repeatedly to evaluate trial schedules in the planning process and so efficient simulation methods are also proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed method is examined through some examples of applications based on practical railway models.

This paper proposes a new feedback-type dead-time compensation method. The proposed method compensates the output voltage by employing two operations. First, the normal compensation matches the width of the output pulse to that of the input pulse with reduced delay time from the input pulse to the output pulse compared with the conventional method. Second, the short pulse compensation generates an output pulse after a few pulses are input so that the average value of the output signal equals that of the input signal. The voltage utilization factor of the proposed method is almost 100%, because there is no limit to the compensation and the decrease in the fundamental output caused by dead time is eliminated. The experimental results using a 100-kHz input signal show that there is no discrepancy between the output pulse width and the input pulse width. Furthermore, the THD of the compensated output current, when the output frequency is 50Hz, is eliminated, compared with that of the output current without compensation. These results show that the proposed method has low distortion and high voltage utilization factor characteristics.

Takasaki-Nagano section, a part of Hokuriku Shinkansen was opened in October, 1997, just before Nagano Winter Olympics. Hokuriku Shinkansen has been electrified by 30kV a. c. commercial frequency AT feeding system.<br>As for the commercial frequency, Japan is divided into two zones: the western part of Japan is a 60Hz zone and its eastern part is a 50Hz zone. Two different power frequencies exist in Hokuriku Shinkansen which passes power frequency borders between different electric power companies. Therefore, in case of a contact fault between two different power frequencies, a beat-formed large fault current will flow, which should be immediately detected and cut off.<br>At present, a distance relay and an AC &Delta;I type relay are used as protective relays for a feeding circuit of Shinkansen lines. However, it was experimentally made clear that those relays do not operate by a beat-formed fault current which appears in the case of a contact fault between two different power frequencies. For this reason, we have developed and put to practical use a protective relay for a contact fault between two different frequencies, which operates by detecting 55Hz component peculiar to the current caused by the contact fault and also detecting power frequency of an opponent traction substation.<br>They have been installed at a frequency-bordered sectioning post and at traction substations which sandwich the sectioning post.

This paper focuses on a battery energy storage system that can be installed in a 6.6-kV power distribution system. This system comprises a combination of a modular multilevel cascade converter based on single-star bridge-cells (MMCC-SSBC) and multiple battery modules. Each battery module is connected to the dc side of each bridge-cell, where the battery modules are galvanically isolated from each other. Three-phase multilevel line-to-line voltages with extremely low voltage steps on the ac side of the converter help in solving problems related to line harmonic currents and electromagnetic interference (EMI) issues. This paper proposes a control method that allows each bridge-cell to independently adjust the battery power flowing into or out of each battery module. A three-phase energy storage system using nine nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) battery modules, each rated at 72V and 5.5Ah, is designed, constructed, and tested to verify the viability and effectiveness of the proposed control method.

When a robust servo system having an integral element has a large error input, it often has the windup phenomena caused by output saturation. It is very difficult for a strictly proper and high order controller to avoid having the windup phenomena caused by output saturation. This paper newly proposes the digital robust speed servo system with the complete consideration algorithm of output saturation. The proposed algorithm completely considers the output saturation of robust speed controller connected to PI current controller in series. Moreover, this method can apply to both PI speed controller and <i>H</i>^&infin; speed controller. The experimental results show that the robust speed servo system having the proposed algorithm has a good and stable response for a large step speed command.

To design DC electromagnets in an optimal manner, it is necessary to obtain the dynamic behavior accurately. A new method to calculate the dynamic behavior using the finite element method with edge elements has been developed. In order to verify its accuracy, the static and the dynamic behaviors of a clapper type electromagnet are calculated. The 3-D electromagnetic field analysis is carried out using the vector finite element with tetrahedral edge variables. The force is obtained by using the Maxwell stress tensor. The displacement of the armature of the electromagnet is obtained by solving the motion equation of the moving parts. The calculated results of the edge elements and that of the nodal elements are compared with the measurements. Moreover, it is clarified that the forces and the dynamic behavior can be accurately calculated using the edge elements.

In this paper, a novel position sensorless control method for interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSMs) that is based on a novel flux model suitable for maximum torque control has been proposed. Maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) control is often utilized for driving IPMSMs with the maximum efficiency. In order to implement this control, generally, the parameters are required to be accurate. However, the inductance varies dramatically because of magnetic saturation, which has been one of the most important problems in recent years. Therefore, the conventional MTPA control method fails to achieve maximum efficiency for IPMSMs because of parameter mismatches. In this paper, first, a novel flux model has been proposed for realizing the position sensorless control of IPMSMs, which is insensitive to <i>L<SUB>q</SUB></i>. In addition, in this paper, it has been shown that the proposed flux model can approximately estimate the maximum torque control (MTC) frame, which as a new coordinate aligned with the current vector for MTPA control. Next, in this paper, a precise estimation method for the MTC frame has been proposed. By this method, highly accurate maximum torque control can be achieved. A decoupling control algorithm based on the proposed model has also been addressed in this paper. Finally, some experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

We propose a new beatless control mechanism for permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. In drive systems, the three-phase voltage source induces a ripple component whose frequency is six times that of the voltage source frequency in the DC voltage. Therefore, if the motor frequency becomes six times the voltage frequency, a beat phenomenon, which causes an increase in the motor current ripple is observed. We analyze the beat phenomenon which causes current ripples and propose a method based on periodic disturbance current regulation, i.e., beatless control. We carry out time-domain simulation and various experiments and demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

In Power converter system for AC Electric cars, DC voltage contains a ripple component with a frequency twice as high as the line voltage frequency, because of the single-phase voltage source. Therefore, an inverter current ripple and a torque ripple of motors connected with the inverter in the power converter occur. The feedfoward beatless control can restrain the current ripple and the toque ripple has been proposed. It compensates the inverter frequency based on the ripple component of DC voltage. However, it is difficult to minimize the ripple component of the inverter and torque with the beatless control, because optimal compensation gain and phase depend on inverter frequency and other parameters. This paper proposes a feedback beatless control can minimize the torque ripple of the motors with the d-q transformation and the torque current ripple feedback and shows the effectiveness of the beatless control with an experimental result.

As for traction motor for railway vehicle, over fifty thousands DC motors are used only in Japan Railways Companies. Insulation breakdown is one of the biggest problem for traction motor and various kind of insulation tests are carried out for every motors at the time of overhaul. The methods and the way of these insulation tests are determined about thirty years ago or more. Materials of insulation and how to compose these materials have progressed in these days. So it is important to research what kind of insulation test is suited for traction motor.This time we made a research to estimate various kinds of insulation tests by carrying out dielectric breakdown test for over 150 motors. And this paper describes the result.

This paper describes the development of a centralized interlocking system (CIS) for railway signalling and its evaluation in terms of safety and availability. The CIS is applied to the Ibara-line (41.7km) connecting Soja, Okayama Prefecture, and Kannabe, Hiroshima Prefecture, which began operations at January 11, 1999. The objectives in developing a CIS were to provide all the facilities available in both interlockings and a CTC (Centralized Traffic Control) system at significantly reduced cost while maintaining high levels of safety and reliability.The CIS is regarded as being divided into control center and lineside subsystems (see Fig.1). At the heart of the control center subsystem is the interlocking itself, which is a fail-safe multiple processor system. The lineside subsystem consists of the lineside data cable and trackside functional modules forming a fail-safe local area network.The trackside functional modules are connected to the control center subsystem which control them by trackside data links using single mode(SM) optical fiber cables. For the CIS we developed a long distance data transmission system by means of SM optical fiber technology, permitting a direct link over 20km without using a repeater.This system enables direct interlocking between starting signals reading into each end of a single line section. Furthermore, a train direction logic featuring a diversity train detection method that was produced in this development improves a safety level and a utilization rate in the single line signalling.

In this paper, we study an optimal design for a hybrid power source railway vehicle as an alternative to diesel railway vehicles. The hybrid power source railway vehicle is assumed to be composed of the fuel cell and the electric double layer capacitor. We apply the multiobjective optimization based on the genetic algorithm for the vehicle design, aiming at reduction of both initial cost and energy consumption. The pareto optimal solutions are obtained using the multiobjective optimization.First we develop a simulation model of the hybrid power source railway vehicle and its electric power control methods. Next we derive the pareto optimal solutions as a result of the multiobjective optimization. Finally, we categorize the pareto optimal solutions to some groups, which enables us to elucidate characteristics of the pareto optimal solutions. Consequently, using the multiobjective optimization approach we effectively comprehend the problem characteristics and can obtain the plural valuable solutions.

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for stepping forward action of biped robot with minimum kicking force. In walking or starting to walk, the general biped robot kicks the ground with its own hind leg as well as human being does. The condition of the ground often restricts the gait because of stiffness, slipperiness and so on. In order to surmount the difficulty on stepping forward action, we introduce the redundant legged biped robot, which has 4 degree-of-freedoms on each leg. Our robot enables to move its tip position and its center of mass (COM) position independently. Controlling COM acceleration without moving its tip position realizes the stepping forward action with little kicking force. The physical experimental results show the significant validity of the proposed approach.

We have focuced to the model based matching technique to detect and locate casting parts in the image. To accomplish this, we have explored the edge based optimized feature extraction procedure and feature based model matching technique for object recognition, so that we have realized a practical visual positioning system for castings. Our system is insensitive to changes in lightings or backgrounds in the real works. In this paper, the system, experiments and some applications are described.

Single-phase boost rectifier with a resonant snubber switch cell is studied. The resonant snubber switch cell consists of an only active power switching device and a LC resonant circuit, and can also provide the necessary control over the current. To turn on and off an active power device under the soft switching conditions, the rectifier is operated in the discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). The experimental results under the charge control confirm that the input current can nearly be wave-shaped sinusoidally with a near-unity power factor.

This paper presents a computer aided system for making the train timetable, DIAPLAN-II (Train Diagram Planning Support System). It is designed to prepare the timetable of complicated lines including junctions and sections with different number of tracks such as single, double and four. We have already developed the DIAPLAN for double-track lines. It has employed the integrated framework of simulation and scheduling to emulate human experts' scheduling process on a computer, and it has been successfully applied to the co-operative work between man and computer in the timetable planning. Based on this experience, we employ the same framework to develop our new system. In this system, we define some additional functions to adjust the arrival and departure order of trains at a station in our framework, because it is the critical point for making the timetable of those complicated lines. A timetable generated by DIAPLAN-II shows its usefulness in the co-operative timetable planning.

In this paper, a novel method to reduce harmonics involved in ac line currents of a diode rectifier circuit with a smoothing capacitor inside the dc output is proposed. This circuit consists of passive rectifier devices only. It is applied to the conventional double connected diode rectifier, 12-phase rectifier, and is added an auxiliary circuit which is composed of an interphase transformer with a secondary winding and a single-phase diode rectifier. Input voltage waveforms of the proposed circuit are quasi 24-step voltages which correspond to those of the conventional 24-phase rectifier.In this paper, circuit performances of the proposed method are discussed by analyzing the input voltage waveforms. Then, effects on harmonic reductions can be clarified by theoretical and experimental results, and ratings of system components are investigated.
