BACKGROUND Despite all commercially available continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems being designed to operate in the extracellular interstitial fluid, and even though there is a well-recognized time lag between the interstitial and the venous compartments, the accuracy of the CGM device readings is still evaluated against the glucose concentration in venous blood (VB) samples, thus result...

An angle trajectory tracking of a 3-DOF (Degree Of Freedom) pneumatic motion platform by the NI Compact RIO control system was investigated. In this study, the positions of moving platform are changed by extension or shortening of the three pneumatic cylinders. The response of pneumatic cylinder is relatively slow for motor actuator and can get a good single-axis trajectory control by tradition...

In this contribution, a direct conversion receiver (DCR), zero IF or homodyne receiver applying in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) sampling has been revisited in conjunction with digital error compensation. Contrary to common practice, our main interest is focused on the investigation of performance degradation in conjunction with the processing of ultra-wideband frequency division multiplex (FDM) signa...

this paper focuses on the non-fragile guaranteed cost control problem for a class of t-s fuzzy time-varying delay systems with local bilinear models. the objective is to design a non-fragile guaranteed cost state feedback controller via the parallel distributed compensation (pdc) approach such that the closed-loop system is delay-dependent asymptotically stable and the closed-loop performance i...

The optimal damping control for nonlinear time-delay systems with persistent disturbances is considered. Based on successive approximation approach (SAA), the optimal damping control (ODC) law is achieved by solving a decoupled sequence of inhomogeneous linear two-point boundary value (TPBV) problems without time-delay and time-advance terms. The ODC law of the original problem consists of accu...

In networked control systems, time delay and data dropout can degrade the performance of the control system and even destabilize the system. In the present paper, the Extended Kalman filter is employed to compensate the effects of time delay and data dropout in feedforward and feedback paths of networked control systems. In the proposed method, the extended Kalman filter is used as an observer ...

The equity issues facing congestion pricing are an impediment to its adoption. A criticism that gets very little attention is that not only does a toll road enable some to buy their way out of congestion, under certain circumstances such as a queue jumper, they do so at the expense of others that is, they may make others wait longer so that they can avoid delay, in both cases of take-away capac...

With the fast development of deep learning, people have started to train very big neural networks using massive data. Asynchronous Stochastic Gradient Descent (ASGD) is widely used to fulfill this task, which, however, is known to suffer from the problem of delayed gradient. That is, when a local worker adds the gradient it calculates to the global model, the global model may have been updated ...

This paper investigates the problem of decentralized model reference adaptive control (MRAC) for a class of large scale systems with time varying delays in interconnected terms and state and input delays. The upper bounds of the interconnection terms are considered to be unknown. Time varying delays in the nonlinear interconnection terms are bounded and nonnegative continuous functions and thei...

The main objective of the paper is to implementation of 16-QAM CATV (Community Antenna TV) system. To achieve this task, various dispersion compensation techniques that are more suitable for CATV system in the near future, are determine. It is necessary to use dispersion compensation devices .Dispersion compensation techniques have many advantages as a smooth dispersion profile (i.e. no dispers...
