Experimental Modeling and Control Strategies on an Open Mobile Robot Platform PRIM

This research work deals with the problem of modeling and design of low level speed controller for the mobile robot PRIM. The main objective is to develop an effective educational tool. On one hand, the interests in using the open mobile platform PRIM consist in integrating several highly related subjects to the automatic control theory in an educational context, by embracing the subjects of communications, signal processing, sensor fusion and hardware design, amongst others. On the other hand, the idea is to implement useful navigation strategies such that the robot can be served as a mobile multimedia information point. It is in this context, when navigation strategies are oriented to goal achievement, that a local model predictive control is attained. Hence, such studies are presented as a very interesting control strategy in order to develop the future capabilities of the system

Adaptación de la aplicación para la realización de Card Storing para dotarla de elementos multimedia y capacidad de distribución online

Este proyecto surge de la necesidad de mejorar un CardStoring ya existente de forma que, mediante un servidor, podamos usarlo de forma remota, y poder separar la aplicación en dos partes; ya que hasta el momento se encontraba en una sola. Con esto se consigue que la creación de las tarjetas pase desapercibida para el usuario y que a éste le resulte más simple el uso de esta aplicación. Con esto, se lograría que la aplicación pueda ser distribuida de forma Web. También será modificado el tipo de tarjetas para poder introducir sonidos, videos e imágenes. Con lo cual conseguimos adaptar el proyecto a personas discapacitadas como pueden ser sordos e invidentes además de aportar un uso más amplio a cada una de las tarjetas.

Some applications of FISST to wireless communications

This paper aims at illustrating some applications of Finite Random Set (FRS) theory to the design and analysis of wireless communication receivers, and at pointing out similarities and differences between this scenario and that pertaining to multi-target tracking, where the use of FRS has been traditionally advocated. Two case studies are considered, l.e., multiuser detection in a dynamic environment, and multicarrier (OFDM) transmission on a frequency-selective channel. Detector designand performance evaluation are discussed, along with the advantages of importing FRS-based estimation techniques to the context of wireless communications.
