The purpose of this study is to present the possibility of adopting beacons to implement the fire evacuation guidance system in order to reduce the evacuation time for a fire in complex buildings. A beacon-based evacuation system can quickly detect a fire's origin, optimal path of evacuation involved with the exits and the location of evacuees using information collected by the proposed system. The assessment is conducted by integrating different scenario models including fire simulation. Based on the research result, beacon is an effective tool to warn potential hazards or to provide early detection and a safe escape.

최근 통신기술의 발달로 사용자의 위치 정보에 기반한 다양한 위치기반서비스(Location Based Service)가 각광을 받고 있다. 위치기반서비스의 경우 대부분 GPS(Global Positioning System)정보를 사용하지만 실내에서는 위성정보를 받을 수 없어서 위치추적이 어려운 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 실내 공간에서 사용자의 위치를 추적하기 위해 비콘을 이용한 위치 찾기 서비스를 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 기존 비콘 통신 방법인 비콘을 고정시키고 고가의 수신기를 휴대해야 하는 단점을 보완하였다. 이를 위해 비콘과 수신기의 역할을 변경하여 수신기를 고정시키고 비콘에 이동성을 주어, 실내에서도 사용자들이 보다 저렴하고 효율적으로 사용할 수 있도록 구현하였다. 특히, 삼각측량법을 활용하여 보다 정확한 위치를 찾도록 구현하였다.

In this paper, we propose a method for a mobile robot to estimate a specific location of a service provision target using a beacon-tag for the purpose of providing location-based services (LBS) to users in an indoor environment. To estimate the location, the irregular characteristics and error factors of the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) generated from the beacon are analyzed, and the distance conversion function is derived from the RSSI data extracted by applying a Gaussian filter. Then, the distance data converted from the plurality of beacons estimates an indoor location through a triangulation technique. After that, the improvement in the location estimation is analyzed by applying the temporal confidence reasoning technique. The possibility of providing a LBS of a mobile robot was confirmed through a location estimation experiment for a plurality of designated locations in an indoor environment.

In this paper, to prevent accidents of school vehicles used by students, which have emerged as a continuous social problem, a boarding and leaving notification system using Bluetooth beacons is proposed. The platform structure uses Bluetooth, a smartphone, and an application, and provides real-time message reception between parents and teachers. It is not simply a system with Bluetooth capability alone, but also an IcT technology that is closely related to real life using two-way communication. The purpose is to provide user-friendly ICT technology as an integrated system for more practical effects. Two-way exchange of information between parents and teachers using cloud servers is made possible. By using this Bluetooth beacon notification system, safety accidents in student vehicles are reduced, which brings confidence from traffic accidents to schoolchildren of parents and teachers. Therefore, it is expected that parents and teachers are expected to improve their mental stability and quality of life from traffic accidents.

In this study, inaccurate RSSI values of beacons are corrected using extended Kalman filter. For the experiment, the beacon was manufactured using Arduino Uno board and HM-10 Bluetooth module. RSSI values according to the distance between beacon and the viewer were measured at intervals of 1m, 1.5m, 2m, 2.5m, 3m, 3.5m, 4m, 4.5m, and 5m. To remove the irregular signal pattern of the beacon, the extended Kalman filter was applied to obtain the average and standard deviation of the actual distance and the measured distance, and it was confirmed that more than 76.6% of the irregular signal pattern was removed after using the extended Kalman filter.In addition, through the smartphone app, it was confirmed that the distance accuracy between the beacon and the measurer was less than the actual distance and the measured distance within 2m, and the standard deviation was small.

블루투스 비콘을 이용한 실내 측위 시스템에서 수신 RSSI 신호는 다중경로 페이딩, 주변 신호의 간섭 등의 영향으로 인하여 불규칙한 잡음이 섞이게 된다. 본 논문에서는 실제 실내 환경에서의 측정을 통해 RSSI 신호의 통계적 특성을 분석한다. 또한, RSSI 신호의 잡음을 완화시켜서 효과적으로 실내 측위를 수행할 수 있는 방안에 대해서도 모색해 본다.

Positioning technology is performing important functions in augmented reality, smart factory, and autonomous driving. Among the positioning techniques, the positioning method using beacons has been considered a challenging task due to the deviation of the RSSI value. In this study, the position of a moving object is predicted by training a neural network that takes the RSSI value of the receiver as an input and the distance as the target value. To do this, the measured distance versus RSSI was collected.

외부인들이 시설을 무단으로 이용하는 등의 범죄가 계속해서 발생하고 있다. 본 논문은 기존의 시설물에서 사용하고 있는 단순 인증 절차가 아닌 BLE 비콘과 영상데이터를 활용한 비승인자 감지 시스템이다. 이 시스템은 스마트폰 어플리케이션에서 BLE 비콘의 데이터를 받은 후 UUID 값과 RSSI 값을 서버로 전송한다. 이후 전송된 데이터들로 핑거프린팅 기반 RadioMap을 구성하고 RNN 기반 딥러닝 학습을 진행하여 사용자 위치 데이터를 도출한다. CCTV를 통해 수집된 영상데이터는 서버로 전송되며, YOLOv4를 이용하여 객체탐지를 위한 프로세스를 진행한 후 Person 클래스를 추출한다. 이후 승인된 사용자의 위치 데이터에 실시간 영상데이터를 더하여 인증 과정 절차가 진행되지 않은 비승인자들을 추적한다. 본 논문은 COVID-19로 인해 시설물 인증 절차에 사용이 증가하고 있는 QR코드를 이용해 인증 과정 절차의 진행 방식으로 시스템에 대한 확장성까지 기대할 수 있다.

Since the mid 1990s, policies have been actively promoted to improve safety and pedestrian environment around the school such as the improvement of School zone. However, the prevention of accidents was not effective because it did not extend to the school road where the main transportation route for children's commuting takes place. In addition, due to the rapid increase of automobiles, trunk road traffic in the peak time bypasses the back roads, which threatens children's safety and the environment by invading the school area, which is the main living space of children. In this study, the characteristics of domestic children's traffic accidents were investigated and the problems were analyzed by conducting a field survey on Yeouido Secondary School in Seoul and Unjung Elementary School in Gyeonggi Province. In addition, Variable speed limit signs and Beacons were installed in the pedestrian road of comunity including School zone, and the effects of facilities on the speed of vehicles were analyzed. As a result of the analysis, the Variable speed limit sign showed a deceleration effect of about 8.3km/h, and the Beacon showed a phenomenon in which the traveling speed of 0.8km/h increased only slightly. In addition, the traffic violation rate of passenger cars, buses, and lorries decreased by about 3% as a result of investigating the number of traffic violation vehicles before and after installation.
