A smart Grid uses two way digital communication with advanced sensors to collect and analyze data for transforming the existing electric grid into intelligent, dynamic selfhealing, self optimizing transmission and distribution grid . As critical grid events often require real-time recognition and real time response .A smart grid uses IP-based ,open standard, intelligent communication to measure...

Recording the variation of joint angles as a feedback to the control unit is frequent in articulated arms. In this paper, magnetic sensor AS5045, which is a contactless encoder, is employed to measure joint angles of 6R robot and the performance of that is examined. The sensor has a low volume, two digital outputs and provides a high resolution measurement for users; furthermore its zero positi...

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are being deployed in a vast variety of military, civilian, industrial and agricultural applications. Dynamics modeling is an essential step towards designing autonomous controllers for UAV systems. The dynamics modeling on the other hand requires accurate records of the UAVs motion states during real flight tests, this is usually achieved using Inertial Measurem...

This paper deals with the diagnostic design of an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). IMU are widely used for system positioning. Their goal is to sense the attitude (or orientation) of a rigid body on which the IMU is embedded. In this paper, the sensors used in the IMU are a tri-axis accelerometer, a tri-axis magnetometer and 3 rate gyros. The diagnostic method proposed in this paper is independ...
