The rapid proliferation of in-home and office information applications and services is driving the need for new wireless technologies enabling wideband short range multimedia communications. Due to the growing demand for higher quality media and faster wireless connections, several IEEE standardization groups are considering very high data rate alternatives physical layer(s) for Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN). The Ultra Wide Band (UWB) multiple access technology based on very narrow pulse transmission, is one viable candidate for these applications providing very high bit rates services, low power consumption and accurate positioning capability. In this paper we provide a methodology to evaluate the UWB system BER performance in UWB wireless fading networks with power controlled UWB devices are considered. Results can be used to analyze the performance of a given network topology and to provide useful design ideas for an UWB home sensor network.

A variety of location-based services applications, such as missing children search, emergency rescue requests and so on that requiring high-precision location information are increasing. Precision of GPS that can be used in most systems, however, is still low. In this paper, we design and propose a low cost differential global positioning system(DGPS) based on Web services using object-oriented modeling technique which can offer useable location service, variety device and safe service in wireless environment. The proposed system is designed with UML based on object-oriented modeling to maximize system recyclability and system scalability. In addition, we would like to improve the precision of the GPS in accordance with mobile station location when build low cost mobile station, location differential framework and server. We implement a communication interface based on web-service which is available in the form of a variety of services and can offer stable according to mobile environments. Finally, as performance evaluation results, we can obtain precision location within 1 ~ 2m through proposed system and 88.5% probability of less than 2m.

Recently, using GPS and equipment that recognizes the position of the car such a computer system inside the car are very universalized. Specially, the technique that diagnoses troubles and prevents troubles through scanning engine ECU is very popularized also. However, because these data have to be directly transferred and received from the car, in cases of traffic accident such as serious damage or car theft, it is impossible to receive the data at the time of accident. In order to receive and preserve the data safely regardless of these situations, it is possible to provide data for analyzing reasons of accident and prevent accidents from occurring by using wireless communication to receive the transferred information of the car, then saving into a Database system DB, or grasping the situation of the car and the driving pattern of drivers through analyzing stored data. Moreover, due to developing some related services such as providing the information about the real time of the accident, diagnoses of the car and alarms, etc. It is expected to contribute to creating added values.

최근의 위치 측위 기술과 무선 통신 기술의 발전에 따라 위치 기반 서비스에 대한 관심이 크게 증가하고 있다. 기존 연구의 단일 노드 기반 시스템으로는 휴대폰 사용자와 같은 대용량의 객체를 처리하는데 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 대용량 이동 객체의 시공간 정보를 관리하기 위해 클러스터 기반 분산 컴퓨팅 구조로 제안된 GALIS(Gracefully Aging Location Information System)의 아키텍쳐 중 객체의 현재 위치 정보를 관리하는 SLDS(Short-term Location Data Subsystem)의 프로토 타입을 개발하였다. 본 논문에서 구현한 시스템은 메인 메모리 데이터 베이스를 사용하여 디스크 접근 시간이 없고 현재 정보와 과거 정보를 분리하여 빠른 검색이 가능하기 때문에 대용량 이동 객체를 관리하며 빠른 응답을 필요로 하는 상황에 효과적으로 대응할 수 있는 이점이 있다.

Outdoors we can easily acquire our accurate location by GPS. However, the GPS signal can't be acquired indoors because of its weak signal power level. Adequate positioning method is demanded for many indoor positioning applications. At present, wireless local area network (WLAN) is widely installed in various areas such as airport, campus, and park. This paper proposes a positioning algorithm using WLAN signal strength to provide the position of the WLAN user indoors. There are two methods for WLAN based positioning, the signal propagation method uses signal strength model over space and the empirical method uses RF power propagation database. The proposed method uses the probability distribution of the power propagation and the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) algorithm based on power strength DB. Test results show that the proposed method can provide reasonably accurate position information.

오늘날 모바일 장치 기술, 위치 측위 기술, 무선 통신 기술 등이 급속도로 발달하고 이동체 위치 데이타가 널리 활용됨에 따라 차량 관리 시스템, 차량 배차 및 제어 시스템 등과 같은 이동체 위치 데이타를 실시간으로 서비스하기 위한 시스템이 개발되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 시스템에서 기반 시스템으로 사용되는 MO(Moving Object) DBMS 같은 이동체 관리 시스템은 이동체의 실시간 스트림 관리에 비효율적이고, 기존의 DSMS(Data Stream Management System)와 같은 스트림 관리 시스템은 공간 데이터를 효율적으로 처리하지 못하고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 이동체 위치 데이타의 효율적인 실시간 관리를 위한 시공간 DSMS를 설계 및 구현하였다. 본 논문에서 구현한 시공간 DSMS는 스탠포드 대학의 STREAM(STanford stREam dAta Manager)을 기반으로 이동체 위치 데이타의 실시간 관리와 공간 및 시공간 질의 처리 기능을 지원하는 시스템이다. 특히, 시공간 DSMS에서 사용하는 시공간 함수는 호환성을 위해서 OGC에서 제시한 "SQL을 위한 심플 피쳐 명세"를 따르는 표준 인터페이스를 지원한다. 마지막으로 본 논문에서 구현한 시공간 DSMS를 이동체 위치 데이타의 실시간 관리가 필요한 실시간 모니터링 분야에 적용해 봄으로써 시스템의 효용성을 입증하였다.

Recently, mobile devices were increased and there was a sharp rise in demand. To exploit the location information of each device, many researcher was studying locating systems. The favorite locating or positioning systems were a GPS using satellites and a RTLS using wireless communication between devices. If some obstacle existed nearby the target device, The system have difference of performance. The obstacles near targets were caused signal disconnection and reflection because of NLOS condition. As the result, the NLOS condition degrade the locating performance. In this paper, we propose a locating system which is cooperated two systems using information reliability estimates from LOS/NLOS condition. We developed proposed system. In addition, we performed fields test and simulation tests at various environment for performance evaluation. As the result, the test showed 97% success rate to estimate NLOS condition. Furthermore, the simulation result of our locating system was increased to 89% compared with a single system.
