Recently, the spreading business of AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) remote metering systems in various regions of the country has been activated, and it provides various metering functions such as two-way communication and security plan functions for power demand management. Current AMI system is difficult to analyze based on the existing RDB(Relational Database) due to the increase in the size of new internal IoT devices and networks. This study proposes a new GDB(Graph Database) based failure analysis method that utilizes existing RDB data. It analyzes the correlation of new failure patterns through accumulated data such as internal thresholds and status values. As a result of GDB-based simulation, it was confirmed that RDB can predict to a new obstacle pattern that was difficult to analyze.

In a wireless communication system, increasing the channel capacity with a limited frequency is a problem in all frequency bands. Increasing the frequency bandwidth and increasing the output can increase the channel capacity, but sometimes the communication is not possible due to interference noise. If the radio frequency allocation is set to world standardization such as WRC or ITU-R, each country has strict control over regulations. This is because one wireless communication system should not affect other systems. We present the results of a study on scenarios and analysis of radio waves to be installed inside and outside the aircraft without interfering with the wireless LAN.

This study is to investigate the effect of lower extremity strength exercise using biofeedback system on community-based elderly. Ten community-based elderly were exercised using the biofeedback system (with functional electrical stimulation) three times a week for six weeks. Data analysis was performed using Wilcoxon signed rank test. Physical function improved significantly, but there was no significant difference in muscle strength and muscle mass. Although elderly people were able to confirm that community-based ICT home biofeedback training could be possible and could lead to improvements in the lower extremity function, further research is needed to demonstrate a clearer effect by expanding the target population, distinguishing the sexes, and providing a personalized training method.

In relation to $4^{th}$ industrial revolution, it is required to build a smart agricultural system using the pest control drones, which are emerging fast these days as a role to support pest control work of farmers and improve aging issues in farming. However, the absence of accurate criteria on management of the pest control drones and the effect of pesticide application is leading to damage to crops by pesticides. The extreme shortage of analysis of management of the pest control drones and relevant studies, and big differences in pest control efficiency depending on the operation skills of controllers are the biggest reasons for the damage. Therefore, this paper suggests a basic study on agricultural pest control drone operation system buildup to make out working schedules and calculate the dosage of pesticide by understanding the features of the pest control drones properly based on the control using smart operating mode.

This study proposes a digital twin implementation method through simulation so that the manufacturing process can be optimized in a manual manufacturing site. The scope of the proposal is a knowledge management mechanism that collects manual motion with a sensor and optimizes the manufacturing process with repetitive experimental data for motion recognition. In order to achieve the research purpose, a simulation of the distribution site was conducted, and a plan to create an optimized digital twin was prepared by repeatedly experiencing the work simulation based on the basic knowledge expressed by the worker's experience. As a result of the experiment, it was found that it is possible to continuously improve the manufacturing process by transmitting the result of configuring the optimized resources to the physical system by generating the characteristics of the work space configuration and working step within a faster time with the simulation that creates the digital twin.

There are various 'wireless communication technologies' around us. Wireless mobile communication has evolved through various stages, and its utilization is also diverse. However, due to the development of wireless communication technology, the demand for frequency resources is much higher than the supply, so frequency shortage is serious. Recently, 'visible light communication' has been attracting attention as an emerging communication technology that can solve the frequency shortage. 'Visible light communication' is a communication method based on serial data transmission / reception, and there is a difficulty in transmitting / receiving parallel data because the transmitter and the receiver are arbitrarily present. In this paper, we have studied parallel data processing of visible light communication. We could solve the problem by analyzing parallel data using image processing. Through this study, communication performance can be verified through I / O data comparison by implementing parallel data analysis method. It is expected that diversity in parallel data analysis will be presented through the results.

In this paper, we analyzed the effect of modulation scheme and modulation scheme on the dimming level of visible light communication system and studied the effect of distortion due to delayed signal. Currently, the modulation schemes most commonly used in visible light communication result in increasing the communication performance but reducing the brightness of the entire illumination. Continuous Burst Zero Duration will severely degrade lighting. This degrades not only the illumination but also the performance of the whole system and causes Flicker phenomenon. In this paper, we analyze the relationship between modulation technique and illumination - communication performance and investigate the effect of signal delay on visible light communication system. Through simulation, we analyze the performance of IPI-OOK which has the best communication-lighting performance and propose future research directions accordingly.

As for the battery package method, a prismatic package method is preferred for stability reasons, but it is rapidly expanding due to the stability verification of a pouch type package. The pouch type using the lamination process has an advantage of high battery energy density because it can reduce space waste, but has a disadvantage of low productivity. Therefore, in this paper, by extracting edge detection algorithm precision, pattern algorithm precision, and motion controller recall rate by improving backlight lighting fixtures to minimize light diffusion, securing standards for stereo camera position relationship displacement monitoring, and securing standards for lens release monitoring. We propose to implement a system that ensures accuracy and reliability in positioning. As a result of the experiment, the proposed system shows an average error range of 0.032mm for edge detection, 0.02mm for pattern algorithm, and 0.014mm for motion controller, thus ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the positioning mechanism.

Unlike other processes such as washing, the ironing process in the laundry process is difficult to standardize and thus relies on manual labor. Unlike upper garments, pants have pleats at the waist as well as a crease line below the waist, Therefore, two separate ironing devices have been developed and used. However, in this method, problems such as additional worker input, space loss, and wrinkling of pants occur due to manual movement between processes, Consequently, a pants ironing device that combines the two equipments is required. The all-in-one pants ironing system described in this paper automatically sequentially irons the upper part and side of the pants regardless of the length, shape, and upper pleats of the pants. It also performs a self-diagnosis function while displaying the ironing progress on the user's monitor. As a result of this study, it became possible to double the amount of ironing and reduce power consumption by more than 20% compared to the case of using two independent equipment.
