This paper proposes a new design of compact coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed -super ultra-wideband (S-UWB) MIMO antenna with a bandwidth of 3.6 to 40 GHz. The proposed antenna is composed of two orthogonal sector-shape monopoles (SSM) antenna elements to perform polarization diversity. In addition, a matched L-shaped common ground element is attached for more efficient coupling. The FR-4 substrate of the structure with a size of 23 × 45 × 1.6 mm3 and a dielectric constant of 4.3 is considered. The proposed design is simulated by using CST Microwave Studio commercial software. The simulation shows that the antenna has low mutual coupling (|S21| < -20 dB) with |S11|<−10 dB, ranging from 3.6 to 40 GHz. Envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) is less than 0.008, diversity gain (DG) is more than 9.99, mean effective gain (MEG) is below - 3 dB and total active reflection coefficient (TARC) is less than -6 dB over the whole response band is reported. The proposed MIMO antenna is expected efficiently cover the broadest range of frequencies for contemporary communications applications.
A model reference adaptive control of condenser and deaerator of steam power plant is presented. A fuzzy-neural identification is constructed as an integral part of the fuzzy-neural controller. Both forward and inverse identification is presented. In the controller implementation, the indirect controller with propagating the error through the fuzzy-neural identifier based on Back Propagating Through Time (BPTT) learning algorithm as well as inverse control structure are proposed. Simulation results are achieved using Multi Input-Multi output (MIMO) type of fuzzy-neural network. Robustness of the plant is detected by including several tests and observations.
It's not easy to implement the mixed / optimal controller for high order system, since in the conventional mixed / optimal feedback the order of the controller is much than that of the plant. This difficulty had been solved by using the structured specified PID controller. The merit of PID controllers comes from its simple structure, and can meets the industry processes. Also it have some kind of robustness. Even that it's hard to PID to cope the complex control problems such as the uncertainty and the disturbance effects. The present ideas suggests combining some of model control theories with the PID controller to achieve the complicated control problems. One of these ideas is presented in this paper by tuning the PID parameters to achieve the mixed / optimal performance by using Intelligent Genetic Algorithm (IGA). A simple modification is added to IGA in this paper to speed up the optimization search process. Two MIMO example are used during investigation in this paper. Each one of them has different control problem.
