This paper presents the remote measurement of the ECU signals adopted with KWP 2000 protocol using the wireless communication technique of bluetooth. The bluetooth technology will be the most promising network paradigm which can open the new area in the information technology. Especially, bluetooth module is able to link all the electrical products and personal computers to cellular phone or PDA. This research has a try to design a wireless measurement model of ECU signal based on the car telemery system using bluetooth device. In order to measure the ECU signals, we designed the interface circuits which is able to communicate between the ECU system and the terminal circuits according to the ISO, SAE regulation of communication protocol standard. A microprocessor S3c341 OX is used for the system control and communication of ECU signals. The embedded system software is programmed to measure the ECU signals using the ARM compiler and ANCI C based on Micro/OS-II kernel to communicate between two bluetooth modules using bluetooth stack.

It is addressed that traditional light systems are improper to be applied practically in the energy efficiency point of view. To overcome such drawback, advanced investigations are recently conducted for realizing remote control of several related equipments such as lights, heats, home appliances, etc. This paper proposes a novel power line communication system to effectively manage lights in which the conventional method is used without any modification. We timely control lights to reduce energy cost based on given time period.

A bridge health monitoring technology is under development for the safety management of aged bridges. The bridge health monitoring technology has been developed mainly for single bridge management at a large scale, so it uses wire-based systems for power supply and data transfer. However, the wire-based systems need to be improved for the sporadically distributed small-sized bridges on local roads. This study proposed a wireless structural health monitoring system for small-sized bridges. The proposed monitoring system overcomes the limitations of wired systems by providing wireless power through solar power and utilizing LTE technology to transmit measurement data. In addition, a remote control system and power management plan were proposed to ensure the stability of the bridge measurement system. The proposed measurement system was installed on 32 bridges on fields and verified the operability by collecting 80.6% of measurement data for one year. The proposed system can support the health monitoring of aged bridges on local roads.

Recently, the span length of long-span bridges is getting longer. As a result, it has been suggested that a new concept called 'super long-span bridge'. In case of super long span bridges, the structure is being complicated and the importance of structural stability is being emphasized. However, until recently, the most commonly used sensors (dual axis clinometer, anemometer, strain gauge, etc.) have got limit about the bridge monitoring. Consequently, we researched the application of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) to improve the limit of the existing sensors. In this study, the dual axis clinometer, the anemometer and the strain gauge together with the GNSS were used to analyze the behavior of a super-long suspension bridge. Also, we propose the detailed method of bridge monitoring using the GNSS. This study consisted of three steps. First step calculated the absolute coordinates of the towers and the longitudinal axis direction of the study bridge using the GNSS. In second step, through the analysis of the long-term behavior in shortly after construction, we calculated the permanent displacement and evaluated the stability of main towers. Third step analyzed the behavior of bridge by the wind direction and was numerically indicated. Consequently, the bridge measurement using the GNSS appeared that the acquired data is able to easy processing according to the analysis purpose. If we will use together the existing measurement sensors with the GNSS on the maintenance of the super long-span bridge, we figure each error of measurement data and improve the monitoring system through calibration. As a result, we acquire the accurate displacement of bridge and figure the behavior of bridge. Consequently, we identified that it is able to construct the effective monitoring system.

교량, 댐, 터널 등의 대형 구조물 및 항공기 등의 기계 구조물의 경우 그 중요성과 함께 노후화 및 손상의 발생에 의한 구조물의 사고를 미연에 방지하기 위해 효과적인 건전도 평가와 손상 검색에 대한 연구가 최근 급증하고 있으며 특히 압전소자를 활용하여 구조물의 손상을 추정하는 기법들이 많이 개발되고 있다. 또한, 최근에는 압전소자와 계측기 사이를 케이블을 이용하여 연결할 경우 실제 대형 구조물에 설치 시 비효율적인 부분이 많아 무선 기반 계측시스템이 개발되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 무선 계측 시스템의 경우 압전소자의 가진 및 계측되는 데이터의 전송을 위해 별도의 전원공급이 필요하기 때문에 배터리가 포함되도록 구성되며 이럴 경우 그 수명이 제한적이기 때문에 실제 구조물에 활용 시 문제로 제기되고 있다. 이러한 배경에서 본 연구에서는 레이저를 통해 원격지의 압전소자에 무선으로 전원을 공급하여 가진시키는 시스템을 제안하였다. 압전소자를 가진시키고자 하는 임의의 파형으로 레이저를 변조(modulation)시키고 대기 중으로 전송하여, 압전소자와 연결된 광검출기(photodiode)를 통해 전기적 신호로 변환하여 최종적으로 가진시키게 된다. 이러한 시스템을 실내 실험을 통하여 구현하였으며 그 효용성을 살펴보았다.

The ranging systems measure range data in three-dimensional coordinate from target surface. These non-contact remote ranging systems is widely used in various automation applications, including military equipment, construction field, navigation, inspection, assembly, and robot vision.

This paper presents the analysis of image quality with FHD(Full HD) resolution camera equipped DIC(Digital Image Correlation) platform for the measurement of the architectural structure's relative displacement. DIC platform was designed based on i.MX6 of Freescale. Displacement measurement based on DIC method, the error is affected by image quality factors as pixel number, brightness, contrast, and SNR[dB](Signal to Noise Ratio). The effect were analyzed. The displacement of ROI(Region Of Interest) area within the image was measured by sub-pixel units based on DIC method. The non-contact telemetry property of DIC method, it can be used to long distance non-contact measurement. The various displacement results was measured and analyzed with the image quality factor adjustment according to the distance(25m, 35m, 50m).
