Im Beitrag wird für lineare, zeitinvariante, zeitdiskrete und stabile Regelstrecken beschrieben, wie zwei bekannte Zustandsraumverfahren zur Windup-Vermeidung so miteinander kombiniert werden können, dass dadurch für sämtliche PI-Zustandsregler Strecken- und Regler-Windup verhindert wird, sofern diese Regler im unbegrenzten Fall stabil sind. Zurückgegriffen wird hierbei auf das „Additional Dynamic Element“ (ADE) von Hippe zur Vermeidung von Strecken-Windup [Hippe, P.: Windup in control – Its effects and their prevention, 2006; at – Automatisierungstechnik, 2007], dessen Übertragung auf zeitdiskrete Systeme im Beitrag kurz skizziert wird, sowie auf das Verfahren der Führungsgrößenkorrektur [Nuß, U.: at – Automatisierungstechnik, 2017] zur Vermeidung von Regler-Windup. Das vorgestellte Kombinationsverfahren setzt für die jeweilige Regelstrecke lediglich die Einbeziehung eines bereits existierenden P-Zustandsreglers voraus, der Strecken-Windup vermeidet. Die Bereitstellung eines möglichst einfachen und dennoch nicht allzu einschränkenden Kriteriums zur Überprüfung, ob ein P-Zustandsregler diese Eigenschaft besitzt, ist ebenfalls ein Anliegen des Beitrags. Diesbezüglich wird auf der Basis einer geeigneten Ljapunow-Funktion ein hinreichendes Kriterium angegeben, das umfassender ist als das in [Nuß, U.: at – Automatisierungstechnik, 2017] verwendete. Ein Beispiel aus der elektrischen Antriebstechnik demonstriert die Leistungsfähigkeit der vorgestellten Methode.
Investigation of the Angle Dependency of Self-Calibration in Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output Radars
(2021)
Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) is a key technology in improving the angular resolution (spatial resolution) of radars. In MIMO radars the amplitude and phase errors in antenna elements lead to increase in the sidelobe level and a misalignment of the mainlobe. As the result the performance of the antenna channels will be affected. Firstly, this paper presents analysis of effect of the amplitude and phase errors on angular spectrum using Monte-Carlo simulations. Then, the results are compared with performed measurements. Finally, the error correction with a self-calibration method is proposed and its angle dependency is evaluated. It is shown that the values of the errors change with an incident angle, which leads to a required angle-dependent calibration.
Estimation of Scattering and Transfer Parameters in Stratified Dispersive Tissues of the Human Torso
(2021)
The aim of this study is to understand the effect of the various layers of biological tissues on electromagnetic radiation in a certain frequency range. Understanding these effects could prove crucial in the development of dynamic imaging systems under operating environments during catheter ablation in the heart. As the catheter passes through some arterial paths in the region of interest inside the heart through the aorta, a three-dimensional localization of the catheter is required. In this paper, a study is given on the detection of the catheter by using electromagnetic waves. Therefor, an appropriate model for the layers of the human torso is defined and simulated without and with an inserted electrode.
Printed electronics, due to its manufacturability using printing technology, allows for fabrication on large areas and the usage of flexible substrates and thus enables novel applications. Non-impact printing technology, such as inkjet-printing, permits for flexible, decentralized manufacturing of electronic devices and systems. This further facilitates split-manufacturing in security-critical electrical components, as well as a maximum in design flexibility in terms of free form factors and non-standardized structures with different geometrical sizes, reaching from a few micrometers up to several millimeters.
Based on the technological benefits printed electronics offers, it provides an interesting counterpart to classical silicon-based electronics, which is usually densely integrated on miniaturized, rigid areas. By utilizing both technologies in a complementary manner, novel systems in the form of hybrid systems can be enabled. Whilst hybrid systems, incorporating passive printed components and electrically conductive wiring concepts, are already commercialized, complex printed systems, which also utilize active components remain rare. To enable more complex (hybrid) systems, various building blocks are required. This includes possibilities for lightweight, printed data storage, the capability to provide sustainable, self-powered printed components and especially circuits for secure, unique identification for holistic printed systems, deployed in the internet of things.
The presented thesis focuses on inkjet-printed electronic devices, circuits and hybrid systems. It investigates solutions for current scientific questions in the area of efficient data storage, sustainable electronics and hardware-based security in printed electronics.
For data storage, an inkjet-printed memristor is developed. The device is fully electrically evaluated with a focus on its data storage capabilities. Furthermore, the printed device is of special interest due to its easy manufacturability and integration capabilities. The experimental analysis reveals that the developed memristor is highly suitable as lightweight non-volatile memory device.
In order to enable sustainable electronic systems, an inkjet-printed full-wave rectifier based on near-zero threshold voltage electrolyte-gated transistors is developed and fully electrically characterized. The circuit is capable for small alternating voltage rectification of low-frequency vibration energy harvesters in the sub-volt region. This provides an important building block in enabling sustainable, self-powered electronic systems. The inkjet-printed full-wave rectifier is evaluated by electrical simulation and experimentally.
To tackle hardware-based security for printed electronics, two implementations for inkjet-printed physically unclonable functions are developed and presented. For unique identification, intrinsic variation in active printed devices are exploited. One implementation is based on a crossbar architecture, incorporating integrable electrolyte-gated transistor cells. The second implementation, the so-called differential circuit physically unclonable function, is based on inverter structures, which provide the basis for unique response generation. Both physically unclonable functions are evaluated using an electrical simulation-based approach and experimentally. The differential circuit approach is furthermore fully integrated within a silicon-based electronic platform environment and serves as intrinsic variation source in a hybrid system. The hybrid system physically unclonable function is fully verified regarding performance metrics and is capable to generate highly unique responses for secure identification.
Am 1. Juli 2022 trafen sich im Rahmen des Abschlusskolloquiums des Projekts ACA-Modes rund 60 Teilnehmende aus Forschung, Lehre und Industrie zu einer internationalen Konferenz an der Hochschule Offenburg. Hier wurden die Projektergebnisse rund um die erfolgreiche Implementierung modellprädiktiver Regelstrategien vorgestellt, aktuelle Fragestellungen diskutiert und Entwicklungspfade hin zu einem netzdienlichen Betrieb von Energieverbundsystemen skizziert.
