In this paper, a novel hybrid position/force controller has been proposed for a three degree of freedom (3-DOF) of robot trajectory following that is required to switch between position and force control. The whole controller consists of two components: a positional controller and a force controller. Depending on whether the end-effector is in free space or in contact with the environments during work, the two subcontrollers run simultaneously to guide the manipulator tracking in free space and constraint environments. After the principle and stability of the controller are briefly analyzed, simulation results verify that the proposed controller attains a high performance.

Vortex beams have a typical characteristic of orbital angular momentum, which provides a new degree of freedom for information processing in remote communication and a form of non-contact manipulation for trapping particles. In acoustics, vortex beams are generally observed on the surface of a metamaterial structure or in a waveguide with a hard boundary owing to the characteristic of easy diffusion in free space. The realization of an acoustic vortex beam with a long-distance propagation in free space still remains a challenge. To overcome this, we report a type of acoustic Bessel vortex (ABV) beam created by a quasi-three-dimensional reflected metasurface in free space based on phase modulation. By using the Bessel and vortex phase profiles, we can realize an ABV beam with the high performances of both Bessel and vortex beams, and its effective propagation distance is larger than 9.2λ in free space. Beyond that, we discuss the bandwidth and topological charge of the ABV beam in detail, and the fractional bandwidth can reach about 0.28. The proposed ABV beam has the advantages of a high-performance vortex, long-distance propagation, and broad bandwidth, which provide a new pathway for designing multifunctional vortex devices with promising applications.

<p>Applying the drone-based free space optical (FSO) technology is recent in communication systems. The FSO technology hashigh-security features dueto narrow beamwidth, insusceptible to interferences, free license and landline connection is not appropriate. However, these advantages face many obstacles that affect the system's performance, such as random weather conditions and misalignment. The pointing error Hpis one of the critical factors of the channel gain H. The related parameters of the Hp factor: the pointing error angles θr and the path length Z, were manipulated to extract the applicable values at various receiver diameter values. The proposed system has two topologies: single input single output (SISO) and multiple input single output (MISO), flying in weak atmospheric turbulence. The simulation was done using MATLAB software 2020. The average bit error rate (ABER) for the system versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) were verified and analyzed. The results showed that at θr=10<sup>−3</sup>rad, Z increased in the range 10~100m for each one-centimeter increase of DR. At θr=10<sup>−2</sup>rad, the applicable Z was nearly 10% of the link distance Z when θr=10<sup>−3</sup>rad was applied. Consequently, an increase in θr must correspond decrease in Z and vice versa to maintain the system at high performance.</p>

AbstractFree Space Optics (FSO) is a wireless optical communication technology which depends on propagation of optical beam through air. FSO communication system provides secure communication link, cost-effective solution and license-free operation. In this paper, the FSO communication link has been analysed in turbulent atmosphere using homotopy perturbation method (HPM). We have designed a FSO system operating at an optical wavelength of 850 nm with a signal power of 4 dBm having a link range of 2 km between transmitter and receiver unit. It has been observed that in atmospheric turbulence high performance FSO link is achieved by increasing the aperture diameter of receiver telescope.
