Smart sensor is known as intelligent sensor, it is different with other conventional sensors in the case of intelligent system embedded on it. Smart sensor has many benefits e.g. low-cost in usage, self-decision and self-diagnosis abilities. This sensor consists of perception element(sensing element), signal processing and technology of communication. In this work, a bridge and structure of smart sensor has been investigated to be capable to condition monitoring routine. This investigation involves low power consumption, software programming, fast data acquisition ability, and authoritativeness warranty. Moreover, this work also develops smart sensor to be capable to perform high sampling rate, high resolution of ADC, high memory capacity, and good communication for data transfer. The result shows that the developed smart sensor is promising to be applied to various industrial fields.

차량의 무인화에 대한 관심이 증대하면서 자율 주행 문제의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 현재 전역적인 차량 위치는 GPS에 도움을 받고 있지만 도심 고층 빌딩 밀집 지역에서 GPS 신호가 불안해지는 멀티 패스 페이딩 현상에 대한 대안 및 터널을 통과할 때 GPS 신호가 단절되는 구간에 대한 대안이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 MEMS 기반의 관성 센서를 제작하고 이를 이용하여 차량의 주행 모드를 자동으로 판별한 뒤 각 상황에 알맞은 칼만 필터를 설계하여 차량 위치를 파악하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 실제 임베디드 시스템에 이식되어 10Hz로 동작함을 확인하였고 GPS 음영 지역에서 3분 이내에는 GPS 오차 범위 내에서 차량 위치를 파악할 수 있음을 실험을 통해 확인하였다.

전력설비 증가와 더불어 GIS 사용이 확대되고 있는 상황에서 GIS 내부고장 발생시 복구 지연으로 인한 사례가 지속 발생하고 있다. 이를 예방하기 위해 170kV GIS 고장구간 판정시스템용 압력센서를 개발하고 검증을 위해 실사용 GIS 2대를 이용하여 내아크 시험을 수행한 결과이다. 시험을 통해 고장시 GIS 탱크 내부의 압력, 온도, 압력파를 측정하였고 SF6 Gas 배관과 연결된 현장조작함(LCP)내 가스주입구에 설치한 압력센서의 동작유무을 검증하였다. 시험결과 유동해석(CFD) 등 시뮬레이션 예측보다 압력 및 온도 상승이 높게 측정되었고 제품에 대한 신뢰성과 확대적용 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, design and manufacturing of plastic injection mold with cavity pressure/temperature sensors were performed fur tensile test specimen. International standard system for plastic tensile specimen was applied to design an injection molding system. Cavity pressure and temperature sensors were placed on the side of fixed platen of the injection mold to prevent them from external impact damage. Injection molding experiments with variations of injection speed and melt temperature were performed and then tensile test of the manufactured polycarbonate specimens was also performed. It was shown that injection molding processing parameters can have effect on the mechanical properties of the plastic injection molded part.

The Korean government is building several futuristic cities, ubiquitous City (u-City), with the latest information technology (IT) infrastructure and "ubiquitous" environment. In the "u-City", Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) will be one of the important services. This study proposed a traffic responsive urban traffic control system applicable in those u-City, using RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology to get traffic information. And, we proposed a predictive control model using the real time traffic information achieved from the proposed system. A simulation example is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed system and model.

최근 무선 센서 네트워크 시스템의 처리량을 높이기 위해 다중 채널을 이용한 MAC 프로토콜에 대한 연구가 주목 받고 있다. 하지만 기존의 연구에서는 빈번한 채널 변경으로 인해 발생하는 에너지 낭비에 대한 문제점을 고려하지 않았다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 불필요한 채널 변경을 절감하여 에너지 낭비를 줄일 수 있는 Reserved Channel MAC 프로토콜을 제안한다. 또한 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안하는 기법이 기존의 연구보다 높은 성능을 보임을 확인한다.

In this paper, we design two types of the sensor module to measure the partial discharge causing failures and electric fires for power incoming/distributer. And evaluate the performance thereof. Analyze the correlation of the phase current and the partial discharge and overheating. Proposes to apply the stability index by utilizing the analyzed information and use in order to prevent the failure or electrical fire of the power incoming/distributer.

In this paper, we introduce the on-line test of the current collection characteristics for HSR 350x(Korea High Speed Train project) that have been performed in the Kyoung-bu high-speed line since 2002. Through the analysis of measured data during on-line test, the variation trends of contact force between pantograph and catenary according to the track conditions and driving patterns are reviewed. This study shows that the track conditions do not affect on the dynamic performance between pantograph and the driving patterns are important factors in determining the good interaction of them.

The aim of this study is to acquire useful information of lower urinary tract symptom (LUTS) diagnosis through urophonography signal as a noninvasive method. The hardware and software which could evaluate the function of compensatory hypertrophy with noninvasive and comfortable method was implemented to measure uroflow and urophonography signal during urination. The PSD (power spectrum density) and the log-log plot gradient analysis were accomplished in frequency domain. For evaluation of the system and analysis method, a model system for the lower urinary system of men was used. From the evaluation of the model system, the PDS and the log-log plot gradient were dependent on the occlusion degree significantly. In a pilot study on normal and abnormal male subjects, the PSD and the log-log plot gradient were highly correlated with the artificial urethral obstruction.
