The motivation lies in exploring a novel approach to efficiently generate high-energy density plasma with potential applications across various fields. Implemented in an E01 circular cavity resonator, the proposed method involves the use of an impedance and field matching device with a coaxial connector and a specially optimized monopole antenna. This setup feeds a low-loss cavity resonator, resulting in a high-energy density air plasma with a surface temperature exceeding 3500 o C, achieved with a minimal power input of 80 W. The argon plasma, resembling the shape of a simple monopole antenna with modeled complex dielectric values, offers a more energy-efficient alternative compared to traditional, power-intensive plasma shaping methods. Simulations using a commercial electromagnetic (EM) solver validate the design's effectiveness, while experimental validation underscores the method's feasibility and practical implementation. Analyzing various parameters in an argon atmosphere, including hot S -parameters and plasma beam images, the results demonstrate the successful application of this technique, suggesting its potential in coating, furnace technology, fusion, and spectroscopy applications.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FerreinSchifferKallweit2018, author = {Ferrein, Alexander and Schiffer, Stefan and Kallweit, Stephan}, title = {The ROSIN Education Concept - Fostering ROS Industrial-Related Robotics Education in Europe}, series = {ROBOT 2017: Third Iberian Robotics Conference}, booktitle = {ROBOT 2017: Third Iberian Robotics Conference}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-319-70836-2}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-319-70836-2_31}, pages = {370 -- 381}, year = {2018}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RekePeterSchulteTiggesetal.2020, author = {Reke, Michael and Peter, Daniel and Schulte-Tigges, Joschua and Schiffer, Stefan and Ferrein, Alexander and Walter, Thomas and Matheis, Dominik}, title = {A Self-Driving Car Architecture in ROS2}, series = {2020 International SAUPEC/RobMech/PRASA Conference, Cape Town, South Africa}, booktitle = {2020 International SAUPEC/RobMech/PRASA Conference, Cape Town, South Africa}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {New York, NY}, isbn = {978-1-7281-4162-6}, doi = {10.1109/SAUPEC/RobMech/PRASA48453.2020.9041020}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2020}, abstract = {In this paper we report on an architecture for a self-driving car that is based on ROS2. Self-driving cars have to take decisions based on their sensory input in real-time, providing high reliability with a strong demand in functional safety. In principle, self-driving cars are robots. However, typical robot software, in general, and the previous version of the Robot Operating System (ROS), in particular, does not always meet these requirements. With the successor ROS2 the situation has changed and it might be considered as a solution for automated and autonomous driving. Existing robotic software based on ROS was not ready for safety critical applications like self-driving cars. We propose an architecture for using ROS2 for a self-driving car that enables safe and reliable real-time behaviour, but keeping the advantages of ROS such as a distributed architecture and standardised message types.

In domestic settings for service robots complex tasks have to be accomplished. Those tasks benefit from deliberation, from robust action execution and from flexible methods for human-robot interaction that account for qualitative notions used in natural language as well as human fallibility. Our robot CAESAR deploys AI techniques on several levels of its system architecture. On the low-level side, system modules for localization or navigation make, for instance, use of path-planning methods, heuristic search, and Bayesian filters. For face recognition and human-machine interaction, random trees and well-known methods from natural language processing are deployed. For deliberation, we use the robot programming and plan language READYLOG, which was developed for the high-level control of agents and robots; it allows combining programming the behaviour using planning to find a course of action. READYLOG is a variant of the robot programming language Golog. We extended READYLOG to be able to cope with qualitative notions of space frequently used by humans, such as "near" and "far". This facilitates human-robot interaction by bridging the gap between human natural language and the numerical values needed by the robot. Further, we use READYLOG to increase the flexible interpretation of human commands with decision-theoretic planning. We give an overview of the different methods deployed in CAESAR and show the applicability of a system equipped with these AI techniques in domestic service robotics}, language = {en} } @incollection{PriedeFerrein2013, author = {Priede, Gareth and Ferrein, Alexander}, title = {Towards passive walking for the fully-actuated biped robot Nao}, series = {Emerging trends in computing, informatics, systems sciences, and engineering.

An alternative approach is the so-called passive-dynamic walking, where the gait makes use of the inertia and dynamic stability of the robot. In this paper we describe our ongoing work of combining the principles of passive-dynamic walking on the fully-actuated biped robot Nao, which is also deployed for robotic soccer applications. We present a simple controller that allows the robot to stably rock sidewards, showing a closed limit-cycle. We discuss first results of superimposing a forward motion on the sidewards motion.

Not just personal data is shared (e.g. in social networks) but also mobility. Together with the increased ecological awareness of the recent years, new mobility concepts have evolved.

The management of a shared car fleet, the energy management of electric mobility and the management of various carsharing users with individual likes and dislikes are just some of the major challenges of e-carsharing. Weaving it into integrated mobility concepts, this raises complexity even further. These challenges can only be overcome by an appropriate amount of well-shaped information available at the right place and time. In order to gather, process and share the required information, fleet cars have to be equipped with modern information and communication technology (ICT) and become so-called fully connected cars. Ensuring the usability of these ICT systems is another challenge that is often neglected, even though it is usability that makes carsharing comfortable, attractive and supports users' new attitudes.

A depth image is computed by calculating the distortion of a known infrared light (IR) pattern which is projected into the scene. While these sensors are great devices they have some limitations. The distance they can measure is limited and they suffer from reflection problems on transparent, shiny, or very matte and absorbing objects. If more than one RGB-D camera is used the IR patterns interfere with each other. This results in a massive loss of depth information. In this paper, we present a simple and powerful method to overcome these problems. We propose a stereo RGB-D camera system which uses the pros of RGB-D cameras and combine them with the pros of stereo camera systems. The idea is to utilize the IR images of each two sensors as a stereo pair to generate a depth map. The IR patterns emitted by IR projectors are exploited here to enhance the dense stereo matching even if the observed objects or surfaces are texture-less or transparent. The resulting disparity map is then fused with the depth map offered by the RGB-D sensor to fill the regions and the holes that appear because of interference, or due to transparent or reflective objects. Our results show that the density of depth information is increased especially for transparent, shiny or matte objects.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HeuermannFinger2014, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Finger, Torsten}, title = {2.45 GHz Plasma Powered Spark Plug by Thermal and EM-Optimization}, pages = {30 Folien}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{HeuermannEmmrichBongartz2022, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Emmrich, Thomas and Bongartz, Simon}, title = {Microwave spark plug to support ignitions with high compression ratios}, series = {IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science}, journal = {IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science}, number = {Early Access}, publisher = {IEEE}, issn = {1939-9375}, doi = {10.1109/TPS.2022.3183690}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Upcoming gasoline engines should run with a larger number of fuels beginning from petrol over methanol up to gas by a wide range of compression ratios and a homogeneous charge. In this article, the microwave (MW) spark plug, based on a high-speed frequency hopping system, is introduced as a solution, which can support a nitrogen compression ratio up to 1:39 in a chamber and more. First, an overview of the high-speed frequency hopping MW ignition and operation system as well as the large number of applications are presented. Both gives an understanding of this new base technology for MW plasma generation. Focus of the theoretical part is the explanation of the internal construction of the spark plug, on the achievable of the high voltage generation as well as the high efficiency to hold the plasma. In detail, the development process starting with circuit simulations and ending with the numerical multiphysics field simulations is described. The concept is evaluated with a reference prototype covering the frequency range between 2.40 and 2.48 GHz and working over a large power range from 20 to 200 W. A larger number of different measurements starting by vector hot-S11 measurements and ending by combined working scenarios out of hot temperature, high pressure and charge motion are winding up the article. The limits for the successful pressure tests were given by the pressure chamber. Pressures ranged from 1 to 39 bar and charge motion up to 25 m/s as well as temperatures from 30◦ to 125◦.}, language = {en} } @article{WolfArmbrusterSchlicketal.1997, author = {Wolf, Martin R. and Armbruster, S. and Schlick, Christopher and Simon, S.}, title = {Markt{\"u}bersicht Telekooperationssysteme - Das IAW stellt im Internet umfangreiche Informationen {\"u}ber Telekooperationssysteme zur Verf{\"u}gung / Wolf, M. ; Armbruster, S. ; Schlick, C. ; Simon, S.}, series = {FIR + IAW Mitteilungen. 29 (1997), H. 1}, journal = {FIR + IAW Mitteilungen. 29 (1997), H. 1}, publisher = {-}, pages = {11 -- 12}, year = {1997}, language = {de} } @article{Ritz2000, author = {Ritz, Thomas}, title = {Personalized information services : an electronic information commodity and its production}, series = {International Journal of E-Business Strategy Management}, volume = {2}, journal = {International Journal of E-Business Strategy Management}, number = {2}, issn = {1467-0305}, year = {2000}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchoppHeuermannHoltrup2014, author = {Schopp, Christoph and Heuermann, Holger and Holtrup, S.}, title = {Investigation on efficacy optimization of RF-driven automotive D-lamps}, series = {44th European Microwave Conference (EuMC),2014, Rome}, booktitle = {44th European Microwave Conference (EuMC),2014, Rome}, doi = {10.1109/EuMC.2014.6986645}, pages = {1154 -- 1157}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{FerreinJacobsLakemeyer2005, author = {Ferrein, Alexander and Jacobs, Stefan and Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, title = {Unreal Golog Bots / Jacobs, Stefan ; Ferrein, Alexander ; Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, series = {IJCAI-05 Workshop on Reasoning, Representation, and Learning in Computer Games}, journal = {IJCAI-05 Workshop on Reasoning, Representation, and Learning in Computer Games}, pages = {31 -- 36}, year = {2005}, language = {en} } @article{HeuermannSchiek1997, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Schiek, B.}, title = {Results of network analyzer measurements with leakage errors-corrected with direct calibration techniques}, series = {IEEE transactions on instrumentation and measurement : IM / Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Instrumentation and Measurement Group. 46 (1997), H. 5}, journal = {IEEE transactions on instrumentation and measurement : IM / Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Instrumentation and Measurement Group. 46 (1997), H. 5}, isbn = {0018-9456}, pages = {1120 -- 1127}, year = {1997}, language = {en} } @article{FerreinBoehnstedtLakemeyer2007, author = {Ferrein, Alexander and B{\"o}hnstedt, Lutz and Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, title = {Options in readylog reloaded -- generating decision-theoretic plan libraries in golog / B{\"o}hnstedt, Lutz ; Ferrein, Alexander ; Lakemeyer, Gerhard}, series = {KI 2007: advances in artificial intelligence : 30th Annual German Conference on AI, KI 2007, Osnabr{\"u}ck, Germany, September 10 - 13, 2007 ; proceedings}, journal = {KI 2007: advances in artificial intelligence : 30th Annual German Conference on AI, KI 2007, Osnabr{\"u}ck, Germany, September 10 - 13, 2007 ; proceedings}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-540-74564-8}, pages = {352 -- 366}, year = {2007}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{NeumannFerreinKallweitetal.2014, author = {Neumann, Tobias and Ferrein, Alexander and Kallweit, Stephan and Scholl, Ingrid}, title = {Towards a mobile mapping robot for underground mines}, series = {7th Conference of Robotics and Mechatronics : RobMech 2014 : 27th and 28th Nov. 2014, Cape Town}, booktitle = {7th Conference of Robotics and Mechatronics : RobMech 2014 : 27th and 28th Nov. 2014, Cape Town}, organization = {Conference of Robotics and Mechatronics <7, 2014, Cape Town, South Africa>}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @article{Heuermann1995, author = {Heuermann, Holger}, title = {LZY: A Self-Calibration Approach in Competition to the LRM Method for On-Wafer Measurements}, pages = {129 -- 136}, year = {1995}, language = {en} } @article{HeuermannStolleSchiek1995, author = {Heuermann, Holger and Stolle, Reinhard and Schiek, Burkhard}, title = {Auswertemethoden zur Praezisions-Entfernungsmessung mit FMCW-Systemen und deren Anwendung im Mikrowellenbereich}, series = {tm - Technisches Messen. 62. 1995 (1995), H. 2}, journal = {tm - Technisches Messen. 62. 1995 (1995), H. 2}, pages = {66 -- 73}, year = {1995}, language = {de} }
