Journal's Policy:
Authors can send their papers  by email  to  NAUN Journals regardless of whether they
have attended a NAUN conference or not.

The NAUN Journals are open access journals. The Authors
do not pay any kind of  registration fees or publication fees or "donation".
However the full PDF files of
the papers are permanently
open for everybody,
without any restrictions,
while the authors are not
charged with any kind of fees.

The Editors-in-Chief, being assisted by the members
of the Editorial Boards,
are the  absolute decision
makers for the acceptance
or not of the papers.
Submitted papers must
not be under consideration
by any other journal or publication.
 
The final decision will be
made based on peer review reports by the guest editors
and the Editors-in-Chief jointly

Authors and Readers do not

Performance Study of A Deep Space Communications System with Low-Density Parity-Check Coding under Solar Scintillation
Qi Li, Liuguo Yin, Jianhua Lu


Abstract: The communication link is the only way for space probe to receive telecommand data from and return telemetry information to the control center on the earth. The design of deep space communication system has lots of challenging problems. For example, the solar scintillation effects can be significant for deepspace telecommunication links during superior solar conjunction. In this paper, the design and application of low-density parity-check (LDPC) coding scheme for deep space communication under solar scintillation condition is studied. In particular, the deep space communication channel under solar scintillation condition is modeled as a kind of Rician Channel that characterized by scintillation index, and the LDPC codes are optimized under such kind of channel mode to improve the bit-error rate (BER) performance. Simulation results reveal that compared with the convolutional codes the proposed LDPC codes could obtain 2.4 db and 2.5 db coding gain at 8.4 GHz (X-band) and 32 GHz (Ka-band), respectively. Moreover, simulation results also show that the deep space communication system with LDPC codes is much less sensitive to scintillation fading that that with convolutional codes.

Model Predictive Control for Networked Control Systems with Random Data Dropouts
Eva Miklovicova, Marian Mrosko


Abstract: In this paper, the model predictive control for the networked control systems is proposed. The problem of data dropouts in the sensor controller link when the controller does not receive new feedback data is treated. As in predictive control design the sequence of future control actions up to a given horizon is calculated at each sampling time, the natural idea is to use not only the first control action, but also other terms of the control sequence, in case the sensor data at next sampling times are not available. From the implementation point of view there are two or more control laws (depending on the number of lost output samples) which are switched arbitrarily fast. A sufficient stability condition for this switched control system is derived using the concept of quadratic stability. The effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is demonstrated by control of a simple laboratory plant.

Wireless Network Effect on PI and Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Controller
Michal Blaho, Martin Urban, Peter Fodrek, Martin Foltin


Abstract: With usage of data networks in control new area of research known as networked control systems was presented. Many communication medias and protocols can provide new possibilities in practical implementation. Professional solutions like PROFINET or IWLAN are followed with cheaper and popular networks like ZigBee or CAN bus. Recently, much attention has been paid to the wireless networks. ZigBee wireless networks are very popular for many advantages. Multiple control methodologies and practical applications have been developed for this kind of network. Applications must deal with negative effect of ZigBee network like network overload or packet dropout. In this paper we threated network disadvantages as uncertainty and we reduced them with type-2 fuzzy logic controller. We compared results with PI controller using Matlab and TrueTime environments.
