Robust stabilization of running self-sustaining two-wheeled vehicle

金沢大学理工研究域電子情報学系This paper deals with robust stabilization of running self-sustaining two-wheeled vehicle. Recently, some researches about stabilization of two-wheeled vehicle have been reported. These researches have achieved the stabilization running only by the steering control. However, an actual two-wheeled vehicle is running while accompanying stabilization by the rider. We have proposed the stabilization of two-wheeled vehicle in the state of stillness, and have shown the effectiveness. In this research, we compose the control system that aims at the running stabilization of two-wheeled vehicle. We use ℋ∞ mixed sensitivity problem to design the controller to achieve stability running even if the mass of two-wheeled vehicle changes. The experimental results show stability running even if the mass of two-wheeled vehicle changed. © 2007 IEEE

Quantum network coding for quantum repeaters

This paper considers quantum network coding, which is a recent technique that enables quantum information to be sent on complex networks at higher rates than by using straightforward routing strategies. Kobayashi et al. have recently showed the potential of this technique by demonstrating how any classical network coding protocol gives rise to a quantum network coding protocol. They nevertheless primarily focused on an abstract model, in which quantum resource such as quantum registers can be freely introduced at each node. In this work, we present a protocol for quantum network coding under weaker (and more practical) assumptions: our new protocol works even for quantum networks where adjacent nodes initially share one EPR-pair but cannot add any quantum registers or send any quantum information. A typically example of networks satisfying this assumption is {\emph{quantum repeater networks}}, which are promising candidates for the implementation of large scale quantum networks. Our results thus show, for the first time, that quantum network coding techniques can increase the transmission rate in such quantum networks as well.Comment: 9 pages, 11figure
