The winding process

The winding process is composed of a plastic web and three reels, respectively called the unwinding, pacer and rewinding reels but the radius are un-measurable. Each reel is coupled with a DC-motor via gear reduction. The angular speed of the two first reels and both the tensions between the reels are measured by tachometers and tension meters. The outputs are the three control inputs of the three motors.

A local control law for each motor is generated by one or two PI controllers. The first control loop adjusts the motor current, and its integration time constant is about 40 ms, while the second loop controls the angular speed with an integration time constant equal to approximately equal to 200 ms. The set-points of those controllers are computed by a programmable logic controller (PLC) in order to control both tensions and the linear velocity of the strip (300 m length, 5 cm broad and 0.2 mm thickness).
High throughput private communication setup

Video demo

This platform is intended to illustrate a secure multimedia streaming. A video is on-line captured from an analog or digital video player. The information is encrypted in real time and broadcasted to the receiver. Proper decryption is achieved whenever the secret keys are identical at both ends. It is a symmetric key cryptosystem called self-synchronizing stream cipher. The platform is designed so that a sensitivity assessment with respect to the matching of the respective keys can be performed. The class of hybrid dynamical systems is used to implement the ciphering and the deciphering. The devices are Altera development kits involving a Cyclone III FPGA.
