ITC/USA 2013 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Ninth Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 21-24, 2013 / Bally's Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, NV / This paper describes a telemetry and command communication link used as part of a rover entered in the University Mars Rover competition. The link is capable of transmitting multiple real time video streams, along with other telemetry data from a rover to a base station approximately one kilometer away, under non-line-of-sight conditions. Low data rate commands are sent to the rover, to control its movement. To simulate conditions on Mars, the link cannot use existing cellular or satellite communication infrastructure. The data link uses the 70 cm Amateur Radio band for transmission in both directions.

When should a commander be held responsible for the crimes of those under his control? Must a commander have known, or is it enough that he should have known, that his subordinates had committed or were about to commit a crime before we impose criminal responsibility on him for failing to prevent or punish those crimes? In attempting to answer these questions, the very foundations of criminal responsibility are set out and form the normative framework within which our examination of the command responsibility doctrine is undertaken. The historical evolution and modern-day application of the command responsibility doctrine are also set out and draws upon two themes; whether there is any justification for the distinction between the responsibility of military and civilian commanders and which mens rea standard should be adopted for the doctrine of command responsibility.

This thesis develops a hardware circuit implementation of a novel algorithm for reducing a SRM drives input current ripple or equivalently to improve the SRM drives input power quality. The algorithm requires the SRMs phase current to follow a trapezoidal trajectory relative to the rotors position with the magnitude of the current dependent on the desired average torque. This thesis deals with the generation of the required current command that is the input to a separate analog current regulator that forces the SRMs current to follow the generated current command. The final circuit design must be capable of operating at 200C to be part of a high temperature aircraft actuator. In this thesis, room temperature hardware is used to emulate and verify the high temperature design. Both a high temperature microcontroller based design and a high temperature gate array based design are considered with the high temperature gate array based design being chosen. Ultimately, a standard room temperature Xilinx FPGA is chosen to emulate the high temperature gate array. The FPGA is programmed using Verilog HDL and the code is downloaded into the chip using Xilinx ISE software. The experimentally generated output is validated by comparing it with simulation results from a detailed Simulink model of the complete drive system.

This thesis outlines research that investigates the enhancement of industry capability in their provision of better, more effective combat systems for military platforms in the 21st century. The issues surrounding combat system development by industry have been identified and are reviewed in detail. The report provides a background of these problems and fields possible solutions.
