A simple, accurate, secure, long-lasting, and portable hybrid positioning system is proposed and designed in this paper. It consists of a lighting LED that generates visible light data corresponding to position information of a target and a Zigbee wireless network communication module with low power, security, and service area expansion characteristics. Under an indoor environment where there is 23.62m distance between an observer and the target, the presented hybrid positioning system is tested and is verified with the functions of Zigbee three hop wireless networking and visible light communication (VLC) scheme. The test results are analyzed and discussed.

In military weapon systems, control sticks for weapon operation are essential. This paper presents the design and performance evaluation of a control stick for weapon systems using RS-422 communication and an embedded processor. This control stick is ergonomically designed, considering the hand dimensions of Korean pilots and mission convenience. The circuitry and software based on RS-422 communication were designed using an embedded processor. A prototype of the control stick was manufactured and subjected to a series of tests, including basic performance tests and various environmental tests such as altitude, high temperature, low temperature, temperature shock, humidity, rain, vibration shock, and acceleration, all of which met the required standards.

GPS adapter kit (GAK) is a GPS/INS guided range extension system to improve the accuracy and availability of existing dumb bombs. In this paper, a van test result of GPS/INS navigation module (NM) for guided bomb with GAK has been presented. The NM consists of a commercial MEMS IMU, embedded GPS receiver and navigation computer unit (NCU). The GPS receiver of NM was designed to use multiple antennas for satellite visibility and GPS attitude determination. The real-time navigation software was designed by modularized structure to guarantee the maintainability and extensibility. In order to evaluate the performance of the NM, a van test was preformed by using a high performance INS - Honeywell H-726 MAPS(Modular Azimuth Position System).The van test results show that the GAK NM with GPS attitude measurement gives better navigation performance than a conventional GPS/INS integration and good coasting capabilities under jamming environment.

Recently, the development and dissemination of electric vehicles is increasing as a solution for carbon and emission reduction. In Korea, the supply of electric vehicles and the expansion of chargers are increasing rapidly every year under the supervision of the Ministry of Environment. In this paper, we study the portable smart test technology which enables quick check of charge related to faults in both electric car and charger to solve the problem of failure which is inevitable in the diffusion of electric car charger. To verify the normal operation of the communication protocol between the electric car and the charger, a hardware module and software were constructed, and a portable tester based on the international standard considering the V2G technology was developed and evaluated.

SEEMP (Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan) guidelines for a ship's GHG reduction include a machinery modification of hull, an installation of energy efficiency enhanced attachment in hardware methods. It is also possible to bring a ship energy efficiency improvement by fuel-efficient operations or in other software methods. Hardware modification or installation on ship can bring financial burdens to a ship company compared to its improvement expectation. On the other hand, Software based energy-saving technology can be applicable on various ship types, and it is also expected high efficiency of ship energy use compared to hardware based technology in perspective of the investment costs and efficiency. In this paper, it is described that the ship handling simulator based evaluation was carried out using representative ship model of bulk, container and VLCC. Simulation environments were separated into 6 conditions according to the sea-state and weather condition, and the operation results were compared with those before and after energy saving system applied The container ship showed the largest FOC save rate after energy saving system applied although the others also showed energy save rate after using the system.

Recently, researches to facilitate utilization by small and medium business (SMB) of cloud computing and big data paradigm, which is the booming adoption of IT area, has been on the increase. As one of these efforts, in this paper, we design and implement the prototype to tentatively build up Hadoop cluster under private cloud infrastructure environments. Prototype implementation are made on each hardware type such as single board, PC, and server and performance is measured. Also, we present the integrated verification results for the data analysis performance of the analysis software system running on top of realized prototypes by employing ASA (American Standard Association) Dataset. For this, we implement the analysis software system using several open sources such as R, Python, D3, and java and perform a test.

This paper describes the development of an automatic dependent surveillance system(ADS) with Java on Web environment. The ADS consists of a server module and a client one. The server module performs a database server for gathering GPS data from airplanes. It also dose an Web server function for sending Java applet to clients. The applet enables each client to obtain the current flight information from the server via the Internet without a special client software. This client-server based ADS with Java environment has several advantages over other systems. One is not to need for installing special client software on each client system. The other is its simplicity on system maintenance. The reason why it has simplicity is to require only server program modification including the applet without updating client software. After testing the ADS system with the flight information of a Mooney, we can show that the prototype system can be a candidate for developing commercial products.

In this paper, we implement a multi-band network selection (MNS) system based on Linux operating system which determines the optimal communication link for given network conditions among the available LTE, very high frequency (VHF), and high frequency (HF). The implemented software consists of a network interface, an MNS server, and a user GUI. We perform indoor test to verify the function of the implemented MNS system using two sets of MNS system. To this end, two types of VHF communication links that follow ITU-R M.1842-1 Annex 1 and Annex 4 are emulated in software. In addition, the HF transmission (reception) port of one MNS is directly connected to the HF reception (transmission) port of another MNS. We demonstrate through indoor tests that the implemented MNS system can support seamless maritime communication service in spite of artificial disconnection or re-connection of LTE, VHFs, and HF. The implemented MNS system is applicable to various maritime communication services including e-navigation.

실용적인 표면영상유속계를 만들기 위해서는 적절한 하드웨어와 소프트웨어로 시스템을 구성해야 한다. 이를 위해서 본 연구에서는 하드웨어로 CCTV를 선택하고, 초음파 수위계를 이용하여 수위를 지속적으로 읽어들이도록 구성하였다. 한편, 소프트웨어적으로는 11변수 투영법을 적용하여 변화하는 수위에 따라 정확한 측정점을 재구성하도록 하고, 아울러 각 측정점에서 주흐름방향으로 정확한 시공간영상을 작성하고, 이 시공간영상(spatio-temporal image)들을 분석하였다. 그결과, 5분 간격으로 촬영된 1분 길이의 영상을 지속적으로 촬영하고 분석하여 유량을 산정하는 표면영상유속계측 시스템을 구축하였다. 본고에서는 이러한 소프트웨어 개선방향중 하나인 주흐름방향의 시공간영상 작성법을 소개한다. 먼저, 11변수 투영법을 이용하여 하천의 표면영상에 대한 좌표변환계수를 산정하였다. 그리고 이 좌표변환계수를 이용하여, 하천의 수위변화에 따라 표면영상내의 측정점이 적절히 수정될 수 있도록 하였다. 그 다음 이 측정점에서 측정횡단면과 수직이 되는 방향을 선정하고, 이 방향이 영상내에서 하천 측정횡단면과 수직인 방향, 즉 주흐름방향이 되도록 하였다. 촬영된 1분간의 동영상의 각 측정점 위치에서 잘라낸 시공간체적(spatio-temporal image volume)에서 주흐름방향의 시공간영상을 잘라내고 이를 상호상관법이나 고속푸리에변환을 이용하여 분석하였다. 이 때 만들어진 시공간영상은 주흐름방향과 정확하게 일치하여, 기존의 표면영상유속계의 문제이던, 일부 측정점의 유속벡터가 주흐름방향과 일치하지 않던 문제를 해결할 수 있었다. 개발된 방법으로 표면영상유속계를 제작하여 인수천에 시험 설치하고 호우 사상에 대해 검토한 결과 정확하고 신속하며 연속적인 유량측정이 가능하였다.
