Abstract

In the future ubiquitous network, information will collect data from various sensors in the field. Since the sensor nodes are equipped with small, often irreplaceable, batteries with limited power capacity, it is essential that the network be energy-efficient in order to maximize its lifetime. In this paper, we propose an effective network routing method that can operate with low power as well as the transmission of data and information obtained from sensor networks, and identified the number of sensors with the best connectivity to help with the proper placement of the sensor. These purposes of this research are the development of the sensor middle-ware to integrate the maritime information and the proposal of the routing algorithm for gathering the maritime information of various sensors. In addition, for more secure ship navigation, we proposed a method to construct a sensor network using various electronic equipments that are difficult to access in a ship, and then construct a communication system using NMEA(the national marine electronics association), a ship communication standard, in the future.

미래 유비쿼터스 네트워크에서는 정보를 필드의 다양한 센서로부터 데이터를 모집한다. 센서 노드들은 매우 작고 제한된 전력을 가지고 있으나, 센서의 생존시간을 늘이기 위해 보다 에너지 효율적인 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는, 센서 네트워크에서 획득한 데이터나 정보의 전송과 더불어 저전력으로 동작할 수 있는 효과적인 네트워크 라우팅 방안을 제안하고, 가장 연결성이 좋은 센서의 숫자를 확인하여, 센서의 적절한 배치에 도움을 주고자 한다. 본 연구의 이러한 목적은 다양한 해양 정보를 가지고 있는 센서 정보를 취합하기 위한 라우팅 알고리즘 제안과 여러 환경 정보를 가진 여러 센서들을 집적시킨 센서 미들웨어 기법을 개발이다. 또한, 추후 보다 안전한 선박 운항을 위하여, 선박 내 접근하기 힘든 부분을 다양한 전자 장비를 활용하여 센서 네트워크를 구성한 후, 수집된 정보를 선박 통신 표준인 NMEA(the national marine electronics association)를 활용하여 통신 시스템을 구축하고자 본 방안을 제안하였다.
