360°VR 영상은 카메라에서 촬영된 여러 영상들을 이어 붙이는 작업인 스티칭(Stitching)을 통하여 만들 수 있다. 스티칭은 영상들을 이어 붙이기 위해 각 영상의 특징점을 추출하는 특징점 추출, 특징점간 유사도를 비교하여 유사한 특징점끼리 매칭시키는 특징점 매칭, 특징점 매칭 과정에서 획득한 호모그래피 매트릭스를 이용한 이미지 와핑, 각 영상 간의 부자연스러운 경계선을 제거하는 블렌딩 과정을 거친다. 고품질의 360°VR 영상을 획득하기 위해서는 영상의 개수를 증가시킬 필요가 있고, 이로 인해 스티칭 과정에서 소요되는 시간이 증가한다. 본 논문에서는 카메라 센서 정보를 이용해 유사한 영상끼리 클러스터링하여, 한번에 스티칭이 진행되는 영상의 수를 감소시키고, 멀티 스레드를 이용하여 각 그룹의 스티칭을 병렬적으로 진행한 뒤, 최종적으로 스티칭하여 최종 360°VR 영상을 획득하는 과정을 제안한다.

In this paper, a fault diagnosis method using unknown-input proportional integral (PI) observers including the magnitude of actuator failures is proposed. It is shown that actuator failures are detected and isolated perfectly by monitoring the integrated error between the actual output and the estimated output using an unknown-input PI observer. Also in presence of complex actuator and sensor failures, these failures are detected and isolated by multiple unknown-input PI observers perfectly.

The accuracy of GPS varies depending on the number of GPS satellites and is declined in GPS interfering spot such as around forest or buildings. This paper proposes a localization improvement algorithm in GPS interfering spot by integrating information of multiple sensors in smartphone. The proposed algorithm is implemented in smartphone and the performance is evaluated in campus area.

CTC(Connected Target Coverage)문제는 주어진 전체 타겟을 관측하고 관측한 데이터를 싱크노드까지 전송하는데 관여하는 센서집합의 개수를 최대화하여 네트워크 수명을 최대화하는 문제이다. 본 논문은 센서가 타겟을 관측할 확률이 타겟과의 거리에 영향을 받는다고 가정하는 확률 커버리지 모델을 기반으로 CTC문제에 접근한다. CTC문제를 해결하기 위해 휴리스틱 알고리즘인 CWGC-PM 알고리즘을 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 알고리즘이 CTC문제를 해결하기에 적합함을 보인다.

Currently, communication at sea is more difficult than communication at inland due to the movement of route signs by waves. This paper conducts research on relay transmission and reception techniques to extend coverage in uplink situations. The uplink maritime communication environment between inland base stations and buoys located a certain distance inland was viewed as two hops, and a beam generated according to the number of antennas was selected and a performance analysis was conducted considering the movement of buoys measured by sensors.

In this paper, we analyzed underwater multiple sensors acoustic communication technologies for monitoring and control of offshore plants in underwater environments. Information on underwater structure of offshore plants is transmitted and received by multiple sensors at the same time. Using multiple sensors with same frequency, we employed spread spectrum techniques to avoid interferences between these multiple sensors. Owing to the multi-path characteristic in underwater communications, the performance is degraded. In order to improve the performance of underwater multiple sensors communication, we proposed turbo equalized RAKE receiver structures. Assuming that the number of sensors is fixed to three, we conformed the effectiveness of the proposed method as compared to the conventional one.

Wireless sensor networks offer a distributed processing environment. Many sensor nodes are deployed in fields that have limited resources such as computing power, network bandwidth, and electric power. The sensor nodes construct their own networks automatically, and the collected data are sent to the sink node. In these traditional wireless sensor networks, network congestion due to packet flooding through the networks shortens the network life time. Clustering or in-network technologies help reduce packet flooding in the networks. Many studies have been focused on saving energy in the sensor nodes because the limited available power leads to an important problem of extending the operation of sensor networks as long as possible. However, we focus on the execution time because clustering and local distributed processing already contribute to saving energy by local decision-making. In this paper, we present a cooperative processing model based on the processing timeline. Our processing model includes validation of the processing, prediction of the total execution time, and determination of the optimal number of processing nodes for distributed processing in wireless sensor networks. The experiments demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed model, and a case study shows that our model can be used for the distributed application.

Nowadays, a number of sensors which are placed in industrial complex are monitoring areas involving chemical leak and other faults. However, even in the presence of the sensors, chemical leaks, sometimes involving huge amount of chemicals, continuously led to big losses in the industrial complex. In most industries, sensor installation has been performed using past experience or using senor manufacturers' guideline; which leads to poor performance of the installed sensor grid. Therefore, we investigate an optimal placement methodology of point sensors for rapid detention and response when chemical leaks happen. This research suggests a generalized formulation suitable for the optimized decision making of minimizing number of sensors to be placed and increasing the fraction of covered scenarios under assumption of negligible effect of other structures. The proposed method has been verified for suitable performance for simple leak scenario simulations, by achieving the safety objectives and guaranteeing safe process operations.

In general, a large-scale wireless sensor network(WSNs) is composed of hundreds of or thousands of sensor nodes. In this large-scale wireless sensor networks, it is required to maintain and manage the networks to lower management cost and obtain high energy efficiency. Users should be provided with sensing service at the level of quality for users through an efficient system. In evaluating the result data quality provided from this network to users, the number of sensors related to event detection has an important role. Accordingly, the network protocol which can provide proper QoS at the level of users demanding quality should be designed in a way such that the overall system function has not to be influenced even if some sensor nodes are in error. The energy consumption is minimized at the same time. The protocol suggested in this article is based on the LEACH protocol and is a role-based self-Organization one that is appropriate for large-scale networks which need constant monitoring.

To analyze the performance of array shape estimation techniques using auxiliary sensors, the appropriate number and the positions of auxiliary sensors are investigated. Also, a post-processing technique based on spline interpolation is proposed to improve the performance of array shape estimation. The simulation results showed that when auxiliary sensors are arranged uniformly, the performance of shape estimation is better than other arrangements of auxiliary sensors. Also, the proposed post-processing technique improved the performance of the existing shape estimation method, such as Kalman filter method.
