The significance of PNT information in the fourth industrial revolution is viewed differently in relation to the past. Autonomous vehicles, autonomous vessels, smart grids, and national infrastructure require sustainable and reliable services in addition to their high precision service. Satellite navigation system, which is the most representative system for providing PNT information, receive signals from satellites outside the earth so signal reception power is low and signal structures for civilian use are open to the public. Therefore, it is vulnerable to intentional and unintentional interference or hacking. Satellite navigation systems, which can easily acquire high performance of PNT information at low cost, require alternatives due to its vulnerability to the hacking. This paper proposed R-Mode (Ranging Mode) technology that utilizes currently operated navigation and communication infrastructure in terms of Signals of OPportunity (SoOP). For this, the Nationwide Differential Global Navigation Satellite System (NDGNSS), which currently gives a service of Medium Frequency (MF) navigation signal broadcasting, was used to validate the feasibility of a backup infrastructure in domestic maritime areas through simulation analysis.

In this paper, we propose a real-time service based on retransmission slot in low rate WPAN. In the proposed scheme, during the communication period of the beacon-enabled mode in LR-WPAN standard, a special GTSs is dynamically assigned for retransmission of the packet that fails during a real-time service such as voice. This provides a time diversity in the severe channel error environments to support the required QoS. Analytical results show that this scheme achieves a much higher throughput and better transmission success rate per GTS slot than conventional schemes such as a common reserved scheme in LR WPAN.

최근 유비쿼터스 기술이 급속도로 발전함에 따라 많은 application들이 다양한 환경에서 통신서비스를 요구하고 있다. 이를 지원하기 위하여 많은 무선 센서 네트워킹 기술들이 제안되었지만 제한된 대역쪽과 높은 에러율로 인하여 이동성을 지원하기에는 부족하였다. 특히, 경로를 획득하기 위한 Route Request (RREQ)의 잦은 브로드캐스트 과정은 오히려 혼잡 및 에너지 소모를 야기시키며 네트워크 성능을 저하시키는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 언제, 어디서나 다양한 토폴로지 환경에서 자가 구성이 가능하며, 이동성을 지원하는 Tree기반의 Self-Routing 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 센서 네트워크내 멀티홉 라우팅 프로토콜과는 달리, 라우터 혹은 싱크노드의 비컨 프레임내 Association 정보만을 이용하여 새로운 라우팅 테이블을 형성함으로써 컨트롤 패킷의 오버 헤드를 크게 줄일 수 있다. 성능 평가를 위하여 실제 모바일 로봇을 이용한 실험과 시뮬레이션을 동시에 하였으며, 기존의 기법보다 향상된 성능을 가짐을 보인다.

This paper proposes the USN node location recognition method with low power, which is the modified centroid method. The conventional Zigbee node location recognition is used to the three RSSI values from three beacons, respectively. When a person move with node, the moving speed of USN node doesn't fast. Therefore, one among three positions used to the value that it is a previous value. This method doesn't large the error in terms of the exact position. Using hand-off method, we get about 30% power advantage than the conventional centroid method. And Our monitoring system add the function that it is possible to search for the node region by color.

In this Paper, we propose a Real-Time Localization Platform Built on WUSB (Wireless USB) over WBAN (Wireless Body Area Networks) protocol required for Wearable Computer systems. Proposed Real-Time Localization Platform Technique is executed on the basis of WUSB over WBAN protocol at each sensor node comprising peripherals of a wearable computer system. In the Platform, a WUSB host calculates the location of a receiving sensor node by using the difference between the times at which the sensor node received different WBAN beacon frames sent from the WUSB host. And the WUSB host interprets motion of the virtual object.

This paper describes the results of 2D mapping, feature detection and matching to create the surrounding environment in the mounted stereo camera on Mobile robot. Extract method of image's feature in real-time processing for quick operation uses the edge detection and Sum of Absolute Difference(SAD), stereo matching technique can be obtained through the correlation coefficient. To estimate the location of a mobile robot using ZigBee beacon and encoders mounted on the robot is estimated by Kalman filter. In addition, the merged gyro scope to measure compass is possible to generate map during mobile robot is moving. The Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) of mobile robot technology with an intelligent robot can be applied efficiently in human life would be based.

The IEEE 802.15.4 and IEEE 802.15.7 standard are the typical of low rate wireless and Visible Light Wireless personal area networks. Its Medium Access Control protocol can support the QoS traffic flows for real-time application through guaranteed time slots (GTS) in beacon mode. However, how to achieve a best allocation scheme is not solved clearly. The current analytical models of IEEE 802.15.4 MAC reported in the literature have been mainly developed under the assumption of saturated traffic or non-bursty unsaturated traffic conditions. These assumptions don't capture the characteristics of bursty multimedia traffic. In this paper, we propose a new analytical model for GTS allocation with burst Markov modulated ON-OFF arrival traffic.

This paper proposes a beacon color code scheduling algorithm for the localization of multiple robots in a multi-block workspace. With the developments of intelligent robotics and ubiquitous technology, service robots are applicable for the wide area such as airports and train stations where multiple indoor GPS systems are required for the localization of the mobile robots. Indoor localization schemes using ultrasonic sensors have been widely studied due to its cheap price and high accuracy. However, ultrasonic sensors have some shortages of short transmission range and interferences with other ultrasonic signals. In order to use multiple robots in wide workspace concurrently, it is necessary to resolve the interference problem among the multiple robots in the localization process. This paper proposes an indoor localization system for concurrent multiple robots localization in a wide service area which is divided into multi-block for the reliable sensor operation. The beacon color code scheduling algorithm is developed to avoid the signal interferences and to achieve efficient localization with high accuracy and short sampling time. The performance of the proposed localization system is verified through the simulations and the real experiments.

Developing the method for the selection of animal cell line producing therapeutic monoclonal antibody (mAb) is invaluable as its market is rapidly growing. Although the quality of produced mAb is as important as quantity, however there is no method developed for the selective screening of cell lines on the basis of both quantity and quality. From recent reports, the ratio of light and heavy chain mRNAs of mAb in the cell is a key parameter for the indication of product quality. Therefore, it is obvious that developing the novel method that can detect both light and heavy chain mRNAs in single live cell will provide unprecedented opportunities in bio-industry. Here, we have constructed oligonucleotide probes, molecular beacons for the detection of light or heavy chain mRNAs, respectively, in the live cells producing mAbs. Both beacons showed increased fluorescent intensity after transient transfection of plasmid expressing mAbs analyzed by fluorometer. Flow cytometric analysis clearly demonstrated that both molecular beacons can simultaneously detect the expression of light and heavy chain mRNAs of mAb in the same cell. The technique described in the thesis provides the new direction and concept for developing the method for the smart selection of cell lines producing recombinant proteins including therapeutic mAbs.
