Research Topics:

So far, I have researched on multirate sampled-data systems and its applications to servo motors, hard disk drives, robotics, and visual servo systems. I am currently interested in the theory of multirate sampling sampling control, adaptive control and switching control, and their applications to high precision servo control for hard disk drives, robotics, power electronics, motion control of electrical vehicles in snowy condition.

Teaching Courses:

Undergraduate Lab. Course "Power Electronics", mandatory course for EE junior students.

Undergraduate Lab. Course "Transistor Circuits II", mandatory course for EE sophomore students.

Graduate Level Seminar "Control Theory", voluntary seminar for Power Lab. students, but strongly recommended to my research group students
