In traditional wireless sensor networks (WSN), data is transmitted to base stations through multiple-hop. However, multi-hop transmission will cause problems such as energy holes, uneven energy consumption, and unreliable data transmission. Aiming at the defects of traditional networks, this paper proposes a scheme for collaborative data collection using multiple mobile nodes (MN) as sink nodes. In this scenario, an important issue is how to reasonably plan the data collection path of each mobile node under a series of constraints such as energy. This paper studies routing strategy and path planning. Firstly, a dynamic clustering algorithm is used to cluster the randomly arranged sensor nodes, and then a sensor node with higher energy is manually arranged at the virtual cluster center generated by the clustering algorithm as a cluster head node to establish a data collection cluster. Then the monitoring area is divided into several parts according to the number of MN, so that the MN traverses the cluster head nodes in the respective monitoring areas for data collection. At the same time, in order to enable the MN to complete data collection within the energy limit and improve the path balance, a path-based path equalization algorithm (PEABR) is proposed to adjust the path of the MN, further reduce and equalize the path length of the MN to satisfy the constraint conditions, and optimize the path planning scheme. Finally, simulation was carried out by using Matlab simulator, and the simulation experiments which were performed in a laboratory environment verified the feasibility and effectiveness of the algorithm.

In the water area monitoring of the traditional wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the monitoring data are mostly transmitted to the base station through multihop. However, there are many problems in multihop transmission in traditional wireless sensor networks, such as energy hole, uneven energy consumption, unreliable data transmission, and so on. Based on the high maneuverability of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), a mobile data collection scheme is proposed, which uses UAV as a mobile sink node in WSN water monitoring and transmits data wirelessly to collect monitoring node data efficiently and flexibly. In order to further reduce the energy consumption of UAV, the terminal nodes are grouped according to the dynamic clustering algorithm and the nodes with high residual energy in the cluster are selected as cluster head nodes. Then, according to the characteristics of sensor nodes with a certain range of wireless signal coverage, the angular bisection method is introduced on the basis of the traditional ant colony algorithm to plan the path of UAV, which further shortens the length of the mobile path. Finally, the effectiveness and correctness of the method are proved by simulation and experimental tests.

Electric power steering (EPS) systems are prone to oscillations because of a very small phase angle margin, so a stable controller is required to increase the stability margin. In addition, the EPS system has parameter disturbances in the gain of the torque map under different conditions, which requires a certain degree of robustness in the control design. This paper synthesizes the multidimensional performance requirements considering the stability margin, robustness, and bandwidth of the system to form an H∞ optimization matrix with multidimensional performance output in using the structured H∞ control design. The structured H∞ controller not only retains the characteristics of traditional H∞ controllers with excellent robust performance and high stability margin but also has a lower order, which can be better applied in practice. Based on the performance requirements of the system and practical implementation, the structured H∞ controllers with different orders were designed, and the feasibility of the structured controller was confirmed through comparison and theoretical analysis.

The space gravitational wave detection mission has put forward multiple performance requirements for micro-newton thrusters, such as “fast response, high resolution, and low noise”. In order to solve the problem that the traditional open-loop propulsion system can hardly meet the high-precision performance, the microwave ion thruster with high accuracy and controllability of thrust estimation is adopted as the research object, and the precision feedback control method combining analog circuit and digital control technology is adopted to achieve a resolution of less than 0.1 μN, fast response of 20 ms, and 10−3~1 Hz frequency band noise less than 0.05 μN/Hz1/2 of the thrust performance. Experimental results show that, compared with open-loop regulation, the feedback control can effectively suppress various noises and disturbances caused by device temperature drift and complex operating characteristics of the thruster, and the anti-aliasing filter scheme adopted in this paper can suppress the folding of high-frequency data in the low- and medium-frequency bands during the digital control process, while it can effectively improve the system performance and reduce the impact of thrust noise. The feedback control strategy proposed in this paper verifies the possibility of a microwave ion thruster as an actuator for super “static and precise” space experiment satellites and provides a feasible solution for the application of a microwave ion thruster in deep space science experiment missions such as gravitational wave detection.
