Fault-Diagnosis and Fault-Recovery System of Hall Sensors in Brushless DC Motor Based on Neural Networks.

This paper proposes a neural-network-based framework using Convolutional Neural Network and Long-Short Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) for detecting faults and recovering signals from Hall sensors in brushless DC motors. Hall sensors are critical components in determining the position and speed of motors, and faults in these sensors can disrupt their normal operation. Traditional fault-diagnosis methods, such as state-sensitive and transition-sensitive approaches, and fault-recovery methods, such as vector tracking observer, have been widely used in the industry but can be inflexible when applied to different models. The proposed fault diagnosis using the CNN-LSTM model was trained on the signal sequences of Hall sensors and can effectively distinguish between normal and faulty signals, achieving an accuracy of the fault-diagnosis system of around 99.3% for identifying the type of fault. Additionally, the proposed fault recovery using the CNN-LSTM model was trained on the signal sequences of Hall sensors and the output of the fault-detection system, achieving an efficiency of determining the position of the phase in the sequence of the Hall sensor signal at around 97%. This work has three main contributions: (1) a CNN-LSTM neural network structure is proposed to be implemented in both the fault-diagnosis and fault-recovery systems for efficient learning and feature extraction from the Hall sensor data. (2) The proposed fault-diagnosis system is equipped with a sensitive and accurate fault-diagnosis system that can achieve an accuracy exceeding 98%. (3) The proposed fault-recovery system is capable of recovering the position in the sequence states of the Hall sensors, achieving an accuracy of 95% or higher.

Mobility-Aware Resource Allocation in IoRT Network for Post-Disaster Communications with Parameterized Reinforcement Learning.

Natural disasters, including earthquakes, floods, landslides, tsunamis, wildfires, and hurricanes, have become more common in recent years due to rapid climate change. For Post-Disaster Management (PDM), authorities deploy various types of user equipment (UE) for the search and rescue operation, for example, search and rescue robots, drones, medical robots, smartphones, etc., via the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT) supported by cellular 4G/LTE/5G and beyond or other wireless technologies. For uninterrupted communication services, movable and deployable resource units (MDRUs) have been utilized where the base stations are damaged due to the disaster. In addition, power optimization of the networks by satisfying the quality of service (QoS) of each UE is a crucial challenge because of the electricity crisis after the disaster. In order to optimize the energy efficiency, UE throughput, and serving cell (SC) throughput by considering the stationary as well as movable UE without knowing the environmental priori knowledge in MDRUs aided two-tier heterogeneous networks (HetsNets) of IoRT, the optimization problem has been formulated based on emitting power allocation and user association combinedly in this article. This optimization problem is nonconvex and NP-hard where parameterized (discrete: user association and continuous: power allocation) action space is deployed. The new model-free hybrid action space-based algorithm called multi-pass deep Q network (MP-DQN) is developed to optimize this complex problem. Simulations results demonstrate that the proposed MP-DQN outperforms the parameterized deep Q network (P-DQN) approach, which is well known for solving parameterized action space, DQN, as well as traditional algorithms in terms of reward, average energy efficiency, UE throughput, and SC throughput for motionless as well as moveable UE.
