Summary
This study introduces a fuzzy-logic system for robot positioning in GPS-shaded areas using LED light analysis. The system enables autonomous navigation without collisions, proving effective for areas with poor GPS reception.
Area of Science:
- Robotics
- Artificial Intelligence
- Computer Vision
Background:
- Global Positioning System (GPS) limitations in shaded environments hinder autonomous navigation.
- Need for robust indoor positioning systems for mobile robots.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop and evaluate a fuzzy-logic system for precise robot positioning in GPS-denied indoor settings.
- To enable autonomous navigation and obstacle avoidance in challenging environments.
Main Methods:
- Utilized a fuzzy-logic system analyzing LED light chromaticity and frequency-component ratio for positioning.
- Simulated an indoor environment with obstacles using MATLAB.
- Implemented behavioral rules for autonomous navigation and target approach.
Main Results:
- The fuzzy positioning system successfully determined robot coordinates (x and y).
- Simulations demonstrated successful target acquisition without collisions in various indoor scenarios.
- Validated the system's effectiveness in GPS-shaded environments.
Conclusions:
- The proposed fuzzy-logic system is suitable for autonomous vehicle navigation in areas with limited GPS signal.
- This method offers a viable solution for indoor navigation and applications like tunnel exploration.

Phase-lead controllers are commonly used in various control systems to enhance response speed and stability. Adjusting the brightness on a television screen offers a practical example of phase-lead control. When contrast is enhanced, a phase-lead controller is employed. Mathematically, phase-lead control is identified when the first parameter is smaller than the second.
The design of phase-lead control involves the strategic placement of poles and zeros to balance steady-state error and system...

Consider a crane whose telescopic boom rotates with an angular velocity of 0.04 rad/s and angular acceleration of 0.02 rad/s2. Along with the rotation, the boom also extends linearly with a uniform speed of 5 m/s. The extension of the boom is measured at point D, which is measured with respect to the fixed point C on the other end of the boom. For the given instant, the distance between points C and D is 60 meters.
