Optical camera communication (OCC) is an extension of Visible Light Communication. Different from traditional visible light communication, optical camera communications is an almost no additional cost technology by taking the advantage of build-in camera in devices. It was became a candidate for communication protocol for IoT. Camera module can be easy attached to IoT device, because it is small and flexible. Furthermore almost smartphone equip one or two camera for both back and font side with high quality and resolution. It can be utilized for receiving the data from LED or positioning. Actually, OCC combines illumination and communication. It can supply communication for special areas or environment where do not allow Radio frequency such as hospital, airplane etc. There are many concept and experiment be proposed. In this paper we proposed utilizing Android smart-phone camera for receiver and introduce new approach in modulation scheme for LED at transmitter. It also show how Manchester coding can be used encode bits while at the same time being successfully decoded by Android smart-phone camera. We introduce new data frame format for easy decoded and can be achieve high bit rate. This format can be easy to adapt to performance limit of Android operator or embedded system.

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) identifies a specific object by radio signals. As the tag provides a unique ID for the purpose of identification, RFID technology effectively solves the ambiguity and occlusion problem that challenges the laser or camera-based approach. This paper proposes an approach to track a moving object based on the integration of RFID and laser ranging information using a particle filter. To be precise, we split laser scan points into different clusters which contain the potential moving objects and calculate the radial velocity of each cluster. The velocity information is compared with the radial velocity estimated from RFID phase difference. In order to achieve the positioning of the moving object, we select a number of K best matching clusters to update the weights of the particle filter. To further improve the positioning accuracy, we incorporate RFID signal strength information into the particle filter using a pre-trained sensor model. The proposed approach is tested on a SCITOS service robot under different types of tags and various human velocities. The results show that fusion of signal strength and laser ranging information has significantly increased the positioning accuracy when compared to radial velocity matching-based or signal strength-based approaches. The proposed approach provides a solution for human machine interaction and object tracking, which has potential applications in many fields for example supermarkets, libraries, shopping malls, and exhibitions.

This paper presents a method that registers a lymphoscintigraphy to the real image captured by a CMOS camera, which helps surgeons to easily and precisely detect sentinel lymph nodes for sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer patients. The proposed method consists of two steps: pre-matching and image registration. In the first step, we localize fiducial markers in a lymphoscintigraphy and a real image of a four quadrant bar phantom by using image processing techniques, and then determines perspective transformation parameters by matching with the corresponding marker points. In the second step, we register a lymphoscintigraphy to a real images of patients by using the perspective transformation of pre-matching. To examine the accuracy of the proposed method, we conducted an experiment with a chest mock-up with radioactive markers. As a result, the euclidean distance between corresponding markers was less than 3mm. In conclusion, the present method can be used to accurately align lymphoscintigraphy and real images of patients without attached markers to patients, and then provide useful anatomical information on sentinel lymph node biopsy.

목 적: 전립선암의 소분할 방사선치료에서 골반뼈를 기준으로 한 준비자세(setup)와 전립선에 삽입된 위치표지자(fiducial marker)를 이용한 준자세를 비교하였다. 대상 및 방법: 2009년 9월부터 2010년 8월까지 전립선암으로 근치적 소분할 방사선치료를 받은 4명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 방사선치료 1주일 전경에 경직장초음파 검사 하여 3개의 위치표지자를 직장을 통하여 전립선에 삽입하였다. 방사선치료계획용 컴퓨터단층촬영과 매 방사선치료 전에 직장 관장을 하였다. 소분할 방사선치료는 노발리스 장치를 이용하여, 매일 3.5 Gy씩 총 59.5 Gy를 계획하였다. 분할조사 전에 서로 수직인 두 방향의 kV X-선을 촬영하여 얻은 영상의 위치표지자와 방사선치료계획의 디지털재구성사진에서 관찰되는 위치표지자를 융합하여, 환자의 자세를 조정하고 준비자세를 하였다. 위치표지자 기준 준비자세에서 방사선치료계획의 디지털재구성사진과 kV X-선 영상의 골반뼈를 가상적으로 융합하여, 골반뼈 기준 준비자세를 구하였다. 결 과: 67회의 분할조사를 분석하였다. 위치표지자 기준 준비자세에서 방사선치료 중심점과의 3차원적 위치 차이의 평균은 $0.94{\pm}0.62$ mm (범위, 0.09~3.01 mm; 중앙값 0.81 mm)였고 좌우, 상하, 전후 방향으로 위치 차이의 평균은 각각 $0.39{\pm}0.34$ mm, $0.46{\pm}0.34$ mm, $0.57{\pm}0.59$ mm였다. 골반뼈 기준 준비자세에서 방사선치료 중심점과의 3차원적 위치 차이의 평균은 $3.15{\pm}2.03$ mm (범위, 0.25~8.23; 중앙값, 2.95 mm)였고, 상하 방향의 위치 차이(평균, $2.29{\pm}1.95$ mm)가 전후(평균, $1.73{\pm}1.31$ mm), 좌우(평균 $0.45{\pm}0.37$ mm) 방향보다 유의하게 컸다(p<0.05). 위치표지자 기준 준비자세와 골반뼈 기준 준비자세들에서 방사선치료 중심점과의 3차원적 위치 차이가 3 mm 이상이었던 경우는 전체 분할방사선조사 횟수의 1.5%와 49.3%였고, 5 mm 이상이었던 경우가 각각 0%, 17.9%였다. 결 론: 위치표지자를 이용하여 보다 정확하게 준비자세를 함으로써 계획용표적체적의 여유를 줄일 수 있고, 따라서 전립선 주변의 정상조직에 대한 방사선량을 감소시켜 보다 안전하게 소분할 방사선치료를 할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

The federated Kaman filter(FKF) is being widely used in many multisensor navigatiion systems. It is know that the FKF has advantages of simplicity and fault-tolerance over other decentralized filter techniques. In this paper, optimal and suboptimal FKF configuratiions are mentioned and a covariance analysis technique for the suboptimal FKF is newly presented. The suboptimal FKF configuration, known as No-reset(NR) mode, has better fault tolerance capability than the optimal FKF coniguratioin. In the suggested technique, a suboptimal fusion process of FKF is considered a swell as suboptimal gains of local filters. An upper boun of error covariance for suboptimal FKF is derived. Also, it is mathematically shown that this bound is smaller thanexisting bound in the literatrue. A vehicle-navigaion system is designed using the FKF. In thissystem, a map constraing equation is introduced and used as a measurement equatioin of Kalman filter. Performance analysis is done by the suggested covariance analysis techniques.

A key component for autonomous mobile robot is to localize ifself. In this paper we suggest a vision-based localization and compensation of robot's location using ultrasound. Mobile robot travels along wall and searches each feature in indoor environment and transformed absolute coordinates of actuality environment using these points and builds a map. And we obtain information of the environment because mobile robot travels along wall. Localzation search robot's location candidate point by ultrasound and decide position among candidate point by features matching.

기존의 참조서명과 입력서명을 비교하는 방법 중 분절 단위 비교 방법은 전역적 방법과 점단위 방법에 비하여 우수한 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 분절 단위 비교 방법은 인식률과 직접적인 관계가 있는 분절의 불안정 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 분절 단위 비교 방법을 이용한 서명검증의 신뢰도를 향상시키기 위해 두 가지 형태의 모델을 구축하였다. 우선 기존에 사용된 구간 분할 매칭 방법을 사용하여 매칭도를 산출하였다. 다음으로 서명의 분할된 영역을 주성분 분석 기법에 의해 특징 벡터를 산출한 후 HMM에 의해 서명 모델을 구축하였다. 산출된 두 특징을 융합하는 방법으로는 SVM 분류기를 사용하였다 실험 결과 제안된 기법은 분절 단위 기반의 구간분할매칭 기법에 비해 우수한 성능을 나타냈다.

This paper presents a method for minimizing standby power consumption in wireless power transfer (WPT) system via magnetic resonance coupling (MRC) that operates at 6.78 MHz. The proposed circuit controls the required capacitance according to operational condition in order to reduce standby power consumption. Based on an impedance characteristic of the class-E power amplifier, operational principles of the proposed circuit are analyzed. Moreover, to verify the effectiveness of the proposed class-E power amplifier, an 8 W prototype for WPT system is implemented. The measured input power of the proposed class-E power amplifier at standby condition is reduced from 5.81 W to 3.53 W.

The optimization of the specifications of vertical silicon on insulator (SOI) slot optical waveguides suitable for integrated-optical biochemical sensors was performed through computational analysis of the confinement factor of the guided mode distributed in the slot in addition to analytical examination of the TE mode. The optimized specifications were confirmed based on sensitivity in terms of the change in the refractive index of the biochemical analyte. When the slot width, rail width, and height were set to 120 nm, 200 nm, and 320 nm, respectively, the confinement factor was evaluated to be about 56% and the sensitivity was at least 0.9 [RIU/nm].
