The use of Internet of Things(IoT) in smart cities and smart homes is essential. The security of the sensor nodes, which are the core of the IoT, is weak and hacking attacks are severe enough to have a fatal impact on real life. This research is conducted to improve the security of the Internet of Things by developing a lightweight secure communication protocol for the Internet of Things, and to build a safe Internet of Things environment suitable for the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution. It contributes to building a safe and convenient smart city and smart home by proposing key management and identifier development to increase the confidentiality of communication and the establishment of an Internet authentication system.

WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) based on low-power is one of the core technologies in the ubiquitous society. In this paper, we present a border surveillance and control system in WSN environment. The system consists of static sensor node, mobile sensor node, static gateway, mobile gateway, server and mobile application. Mobile applications are divided into user mode and manager mode. So users monitor border surveillance through mobile phone and get information of border network environment without time and space constraints. In manager mode, for the flexible operation of nodes, manager can update to the software remotely and adjust the position of the mobile node. And also we implement a suitable multi-hop routing protocol for scalable low-power sensor nodes and confirm that the system operates well in WSN environment.

Sensor Node OS should support unified API and efficient sensor device management system to overcome the diversity of sensors and actuators. However, conventional OSs like Tiny-OS and Nano-Q+ do not. In this paper, we propose a sensor device driver management system that present application programmers with unified API and easy deployment of sensors. When a sensor is deployed in our device management system, the device driver is downloaded. This scheme differs from traditional OS like SOS in that only sensor device driver is downloaded, not the whole application image. We designed and implemented the system into Nano-Q+. We described the comparison with other OSs and showed that our system obtains the considerable speedup of downloading.

In this paper, we design and implement an advanced cattle shed management system using a infrared wireless sensor nodes and surveillance camera. Our system provides three main capabilities, such as 24-hours cattle shed monitoring, trespassing detection, automatic control of cattle shed. For this, our system can monitor cattle shed as well as the condition of cows/bulls for 24 hours per day by using surveillance cameras. Our system also can detect intruders inside the cattle shed by using infrared wireless sensor nodes. In addition, our system can control the power of electric equipments in the cattle shed by using a power controller. Finally, we combine the three components into a system by using a smartphone application program and verify the effectiveness of our system by a testbed.

Zigbee, which was a representative standard technology for dealing low energy and mesh networks in large deployment area such as smart home, smart building, and massive sensor networks, has been developed and deployed for increasing communication area by using Ad hoc method. It has been originally developed based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard so every node needs 48bit unique address defined by IEEE. However, it is absolutely inefficient to assign an unique address to every communication node where it would be deployed through large-scale network area, e.g., smart lighting and massive sensor networks, because there could be variously multiple companies to deploy network infrastructure and they could have different policy to assign node ID. To prevent the problem, this paper proposes a method of dynamic PANID assignment in overall Personal Coordinators, and also proposes a method for addressing PANID conflict problem which could be derived from dynamic PANID assignment.

The internet of things(: IoT) which could produce new information as well as service through connecting small devices with internet interface becomes reality and could be utilized in home, office and plant. Especially the IoT can provide our home for safety, security, convenience, and power saving since all devices form a small internet. This paper proposes an IoT prototype for home with Raspberry Pi which has various sensors and monitors environment. This Raspberry Pi sensor node is small and inexpensive but can provide powerful service. The implemented node goes beyond simple role of sensor node and features a kind of sensor web node which performs various functions to outer network. So the proposed IoT prototype can provide flexibility as well as extensibility since it does not need expensive server.

Zigbee is a wireless communication technology optimized for WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) environment. A WSN gateway is used for node control and data transmission. However, a fixed-type gateway can restrict the flexibility of the WSN environment. A smartphone-mounted high-performance processor and Android OS can be easily used in a mobile WSN gateway. In this paper, we proposed a mobile WSN gateway based on Android smartphones. In the proposed system, a Zigbee sensor module is connected with a smartphone via USB (Universal Serial Bus) port. We also implemented an Android application for the mobile WSN gateway.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 모바일 싱크의 도입은 기존의 고정된 위치의 싱크를 사용하는 WSN에서 발생하는, 싱크 주변 노드들과 외곽 노드들 간의 에너지 불균형 문제(에너지 핫스팟 문제)를 어느 정도 해결할 수 있게 하였다. 그러나 모바일 싱크의 에너지 제약으로 인해 싱크가 모든 노드를 방문하여 데이터를 수집할 수 없기 때문에, 앵커(또는 헤드)라고 불리는 특정 노드에서 데이터를 모으고, 모바일 싱크는 이러한 앵커 노드들만을 방문하는 방법이 널리 사용되고 있다. 최근 연구에서는 모바일 싱크가 보다 효율적으로 에너지 불균형 문제를 해결하기 위하여 모바일 싱크 이동 경로 및 앵커 노드 선정 최적화 방법이 활발히 연구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 태양 에너지 기반 센서 네트워크를 위한 영역 기반 앵커 선정 기법 및 모바일 싱크 이동 경로 선택 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 각 노드가 수집하는 태양 에너지의 활용을 최대화하고, 에너지 핫스팟 문제를 완화하기 위해 두 개의 라인(영역)을 설정하고 이 라인을 따라 앵커 노드가 선정된다. 모바일 싱크는 데이터 수집을 위해 이 두 라인을 왕복 이동 경로로 택하여 라인 내의 앵커 노드를 방문한다. 실험을 통해 제안 기법이 기존 기법보다 에너지 불균형 문제가 완화되어 노드의 정전 시간이 줄어들고, 이에 따라 모바일 싱크에서 수집되는 데이터의 양이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다.

무선센서네트워크 (Wireless Sensor Network, WSN)는 최근 각광 받고 있는 스마트 서비스 (Smart Service)등에서 많이 응용되고 있다. 하지만 무선센서네트워크의 구성요소인 노드들이 각자 무선 전원을 사용하고 있어 전력 공급이 안정적이지 못하다는 점과 유선 통신에 비해 상대적으로 불안한 무선통신을 사용한다는 점을 볼 때, 데이터를 송, 수신하는 과정에서 데이터가 손실될 확률이 굉장히 높다. 이러한 점을 고려해볼 때 중요한 데이터의 경우 통신 장애 발생 시 센싱 데이터 손실을 줄이고 신뢰성 높은 데이터 송, 수신을 위한 방안이 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 노드에서 데이터가 송, 수신될 때, 서버와의 접속 혹은 상위 노드와의 접속이 원활하지 않을 경우 생길 수 있는 데이터 손실을 줄이기 위해 원형 큐를 이용하는 방법을 제안한다.
