현재 규모가 작은 이름바 '동네 병원'에서는 환자관리의 어려움과 동네 병원의 특성상 병원 자체적인 예약 서비스를 실시하지 않는 병원이 많다. 또한 환자는 기다리는 환자들이 많은 시간에 방문하는 경우, 병원 안에서 자신의 순번을 마냥 기다리는 경우가 빈번하게 발생한다. 이와 같은 불편들 때문에 간호사는 고객에게 간호업무 이외에도 정신적인 서비스를 제공해야 하며, 환자들은 자신의 순번이 오기만을 하염없이 기다리는 등의 불필요한 시간 소모가 크고 자신의 앞에 대기하고있는 환자가 많으면 병원이 어수선하고 앉을 자리조차 없이 서서 기다리는 경우도 허다하다. 이런 불편함들을 조금이나마 해결해주고자 본 논문에서는 저전력 블루투스 (BLE) 기술 기반의 비콘(Beacon)을 활용하여 스마트폰을 이용해 병원 내부적인 예약 서비스가 없어도 자체적인 예약 서비스와 이용자가 스마트폰을 가지고 병원에 들어가기만 해도 자동으로 병원 진료접수를 진행하고 이를 효과적으로 관리할 수 있는 사물인터넷 기반 병원 대기시간 최적화 서비스와 그 핵심 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이를 이용하면 간호사는 이전보다 간호업무에 더 집중할 수 있게 되고, 환자는 북적거리는 병원 대기실에 앉아서 기다리지 않고 실외로 나가 자신의 업무를 보고 진료시간에 맞춰서 돌아와 진료를 받는 '사람이 많아도 한적해 보이는 스마트 병원'을 만들 수 있을 것이라 본다.

Children should be provided with the right to be protected by adults, related organizations, or countries because they lack power, situation recognition ability, and situation judgment ability compared to adults. Also, children's accidents and accidents caused by neglect of management occur every year. Currently, there are about 3 to 20 children managed by one teacher in a daycare center, and it is very difficult for teachers to care for all children as many children have to be managed. Especially, when outdoor activities are conducted in open space, children's activities are expanded compared to the in-house, and children who do not follow the control of the in-house teacher may occur, so there is a limit to the control and management of children depending on the viewpoint of teachers. In this study, we designed and implemented IoT terminal and system to provide safety to children and to provide convenience to guardians and teachers by systemizing the location or interval between children and in-service teachers using portable devices that can communicate with each other. It is hoped that this will contribute to the safety of infants.

In this paper, we proposed an electronic attendance-absence recording system using a smartphone that does not require separate BLE(Bluetooth Low Energy) devices and infrastructure by using BLE advertisement technology of smartphone. The existing BLE-based electronic attendance-absence recording system requires a BEL device to be attached to each classroom for services and a separate technology to identify the devices attached to the classroom. Also, due to the interference with each other, sometimes an error occurred in the electronic connection. In this paper, we propose a system to solve the problems about time, place and cost, which is a disadvantage of the conventional Bluetooth beacon system. BLE advertising function of the smartphone that the user is using without BLE device, it is possible to construct infrastructure for electronic attendance-absence recording system. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed system, we designed the system structure and operation flow and constructed the system using the smart phone in actual used.

Currently, every person possesses a smart phone due to the development of the IT industry. However, crosswalk pedestrian accidents have been sharply increasing due to smart phone use. If a traffic light can recognize smart phones when a smart-phone user approaches and arrives at a given sign, many accidents could be reduced by using beacon signals. Before the era of smart phones, the accident rate involving cell phone use was relatively low. Nevertheless, when considering the development of IT equipment that produces a threat to human life, government cannot regulate smart phone use outside. The purpose of this paper is to indirectly warn a smart phone user in order to reduce the accident rates.

The LTE-R system is a system consisting of a packet network that provides all IP-based services. Continuous failures related to the platform safety gate and subsequent safety accidents related to passengers and safety gate workers continue. The secondary damage caused by the failure of the platform safety door and the related human life damage have emerged as a major social issue.. By linking the beacon system to the Long Term Evoluton-Railway (LTE-R) network, an LTE-based railway wireless network currently in operation or being installed, it precisely locates trains and provides standardized fault alerts to train crews. When entering into the station, ultimately we will decelerate the train and reduce the accidents of metropolitabn railroad traffic by securing safe driving.

The interconnectedness of all things is continuously expanding. For example, bluetooth low energy (BLE) beacons are wireless radio transmitters that can send an identifier to nearby receivers and trigger a number of applications, from proximity marketing to indoor location-based service. iBeacon technology which is one of the newest technologies in the smart tourism field, is reckoned as being very useful for travelers in enhancing the experience with visiting places. However, there is consequently not much existing research yet about the connection between iBeacon technology and tourism destination. Considering that, this study analyzes the adoption of iBeacon in tourism destination, this study examine the interrelationships and feedback structures of key factors in iBeacon adoption. To serve the purpose, this study used system dynamics approach to develop a model of iBeacon adoption in tourism destination. The analysis results showed that the concept of 'Social Influences' is one of the significant predictors for individual's intention behavior to accept iBeacon, and word of mouth (WOM), subjective norm, privacy concern, and perceived usefulness are key factors influencing the iBeacon adoption.

As technology utilizing low-power short-range wireless communication is applied in conjunction with medical information as a development of the fourth industrial revolution, interest in medical information is increasing. As the age group of smart devices increases and becomes more common, related research such as linking mobile devices with various objects and equipment is continuously being conducted. In addition, interest in untact (non-face-to-face) is increasing due to the prevalence of Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19), including various infectious diseases. As a result, it is a state that requires distance not only in social but also in life. In this study, using a low-power near-field wireless communication technology of beacons to create an IoT device by communicating with the web server of the medical information system was studied to make it easier to receive medical treatment during visits to medical institutions.

As techniques for indoor positioning, fingerprinting, indoor positioning method using trilateration, and utilizing information obtained from equipments by Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, etc are common and representative methods to specify the user's indoor position. However, in these methods, an indoor space should be provided with enough space to install a large number of equipment (AP, Beacon). In this paper, we propose a technique that can express the user's location within a building by simultaneously using the GPS signal and the signal transmitted from the beacon in a building structure where the conventional method cannot be applied, such as a narrow building. A shortest path search system was designed and implemented by applying the Dijkstra Algorithm, one of the most representative and efficient shortest path search algorithms for shortest path search. The proposed technique can be considered as one of the methods for measuring the user's indoor location considering the structural characteristics of a building in the future.

Recently, There is increasing interest in the IoT(Internet of Thing) as intelligent information service that enables communication between people and things based on internet. In particular the demand for indoor location-based services with the development of smart devices is rapidly increasing. Using the RSSI signal that is provide to the BLE(Bluetooth Low Energy) for Indoor location information measurement calculates distance information between beacon and mobile terminal. However, simply using the RSSI signal to the distance measurement has a difficult to get the indoor location information due to the influence of the signal interference and the weather. In this paper, by performing an operation for obtaining a reliable distance information from the signal information of iBeacon we propose a system for providing reliable indoor location.
