  • The purpose of this study is to verify the long - range measurement performance for practical field application of VDMS. The reliability of the VDMS was verified by comparison with the existing monitoring sensor, GPS, Accelerometer and LDS. It showed the ability to accurately measure the dynamic displacement by tracking a motion of free vibration of target. And using the PSD function of measured data, the results in the frequency domain were also analyzed. We judged that VDMS is able to identify the higher system mode and has sufficient reliability. Based on the reliability verification, we conducted tests for long-distance applicability for actual application of VDMS. The distance from the stationary target model structure was increased by 50m interval, and the maximum distance was set to 400m. From the distance of 150m, the image obtained by the commercial camcorder has an error in the analysis, so the measured displacement comparison was performed between the LDS and the refractor telescope measurement results. In the measurement results of the displacement area of VDMS, the data validity was deteriorated due to the data shift by the external force and the quality degradation of the enlarged image. However, even under the condition that the effectiveness of the displacement measurement data of VDMS is low, the first mode characteristic included in the free vibration of the object is clearly measured. If the influence from the external environment is controlled and stable data is collected, It is judged that reliability of long-distance VDMS can be secured.

  • Due to the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) modernization, the recently launched GNSS satellites transmit signals at various frequency bands of L1, L2 and L5. Considering the Korea Positioning System (KPS) signal and other GNSS augmentation signals in the future, there is a high probability of applying more complex communication techniques to the new GNSS signals. For the reason, GNSS receivers based on flexible Software Defined Radio (SDR) concept needs to be developed to evaluate various experimental communication techniques by accessing each signal processing module in detail. In this paper, we introduce a multi-constellation (GPS/Galileo/BeiDou) multi-band (L1/L2/L5) SDR by utilizing Ettus USRP N210. The signal reception module of the developed SDR includes down-conversion, analog-to-digital conversion, signal acquisition, and tracking. The down-conversion module is designed based on the super-heterodyne method fitted for MHz sampling. The signal acquisition module performs PRN code generation and FFT operation and the signal tracking module implements delay/phase/frequency locked loops only by software. In general, it is difficult to sample entire main lobe components of L5 band signals due to their higher chipping rate compared with L1 and L2 band signals. Experiment result shows that it is possible to acquire and track the under-sampled signals by the developed SDR.

  • The spatial and temporal catch variations of Argentine shortfin squid Illex argentinus in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SWA) were analyzed using Korean squid-jigging fishery data collected through electronic reporting system (ERS) from 2016 to 2020. The ERS linked with GPS has been implemented for collecting fishing data from all Korean fishing vessels operating in international waters since November 2015. The fishing period of the Korean squid-jigging fishery in the SWA runs from early summer to autumn (December to June) in the Southern Hemisphere. The fishing ground was extended from 42°S to 48°S along the Patagonian continental shelf and slope, and the main fishing ground was formed around the Falkland Islands. The yearly catch per unit effort (CPUE) of I. argentinus fluctuated between 1.69 and 7.53 tons/day. In this study, during the fishing season, a south and westward shift on the fishing ground was observed indicating the feeding migration of the south Patagonian stock. The shift in monthly fishing centroids differed according to fishing season. The gradual southward shifts of fishing centroids were observed in the catch years (2017 and 2018), whereas unapparent shifts in fishing centroids were observed in the low catch years (2016 and 2019).

  • With the expansion of the indoor service-providing robot market and the electrification of automobiles, research on autonomous driving is being actively conducted. In general, in the case of outside, the location is mainly recognized through GPS, and location positioning is performed indoors using technologies such as WiFi, UWB (Ultra-Wide Band), VLP, LiDAR, and Vision. In this paper, we introduce a system for location-positioning using LED lights with different color temperatures in an indoor environment. After installing LED lights in a simulated environment such as a tunnel, it was shown that information about the current location can be obtained through the analysis of chromaticity values according to location. Through this, it is expected to be able to obtain information about the location of the vehicle in the tunnel and the movement of the device in a room such as a warehouse or a factory.

  • This study aims to determine how agricultural drones are operated for flight tests using a 5G communication in order to carry out a mission such as sensing agricultural crop healthy status with special cameras. Drones were installed with a multi-spectral and IR camera to capture images of crop status in separate altitudes with different speeds. A multi-spectral camera can capture crop image data using five different particular wavelengths with a built-in GPS so that captured images with synchronized time could provide better accuracy of position and altitude during the flight time. Captured thermal videos are then sent to a ground server to be analyzed via 5G communication. Thus, combining two cameras can result in better visualization of vegetation areas. The flight test verified how agricultural drones equipped with special cameras could collect image data in vegetation areas.

  • POI refers to the point of Interest in Location-Based Social Networks (LBSNs). With the rapid development of mobile devices, GPS, and the Web (web2.0 and 3.0), LBSNs have attracted many users to share their information, physical location (real-time location), and interesting places. The tremendous demand of the user in LBSNs leads the recommendation systems (RSs) to become more widespread attention. Recommendation systems assist users in discovering interesting local attractions or facilities and help social network service (SNS) providers based on user locations. Therefore, it plays a vital role in LBSNs, namely POI recommendation system. In the machine learning model, most of the training data are stored in the centralized data storage, so information that belongs to the user will store in the centralized storage, and users may face privacy issues. Moreover, sharing the information may have safety concerns because of uploading or sharing their real-time location with others through social network media. According to the privacy concern issue, the paper proposes a recommendation model to prevent user privacy and eliminate traditional RS problems such as cold-start and data sparsity.

  • 통상 하드웨어 캐시의 크기보다 수십에서 수백배 큰 크기의 데이타를 랜덤하게 접근하는 경우 낮은 메모리 접근 지역성(locality)에 기인하여 캐시 메모리 성능이 급격히 저하되는 문제를 야기한다. 예를 들면, 현재 보편적으로 사용되고 있는 차량용 General Positioning System (GPS) 프로그램의 경우 최대 32개의 위성으로부터 데이터를 받아 수신단의 위치를 계산하는 부분이 핵심 모듈중의 하나 이며, 이는 전체 성능의 50% 이상을 차지한다. 이러한 모듈에서는 위성 신호를 실시간으로 받아 버퍼 메모리에 저장하며, 이때 필요한 데이터가 순차적으로 저장되지 못하기 때문에 랜덤하게 데이터를 읽어 사용하게 된다. 결과적으로 낮은 지역성에 기인하여 실시간 (realtime)안에 데이터 처리를 하기 어려운 문제에 직면하게 된다. 통상의 통신 응용의 알고리즘 상에 내재된(inherited) 낮은 메모리 접근 지역성을 개선하는 것은 알고리즘 상에서의 접근을 요구한다. 이는 높은 비용이 필요함으로 본 연구에서는 사용되는 데이터 구조를 변환하여 지역성을 높이는 방향으로 접근하였다. 결과적으로 핵심 모듈에서 2배, 전체 시스템 성능에서 14%를 개선할 수 있었다.

  • Recently, a fire suddenly broke out in a crowded theater, and many people were unable to find an escape route, becoming entangled, injured, and suffocating from smoke inhalation, resulting in a large-scale fire accident. Even though most of the people were young, they were unable to evacuate. If they had been elderly, it could have resulted in greater casualties. In particular, since it is difficult to receive accurate location information from GPS indoor, there is an urgent need for location-based services using beacons and an emergency evacuation system that intuitively shows evacuation routes in augmented reality using smart-phones. In this paper, an augmented reality-based emergency evacuation smartphone app was developed based on identifying fire locations and evacuation routes using beacons and fire sensors (IoT). In the future, if the proposed system is applied to indoor spaces where people are crowded, rapid evacuation will be possible even in a sudden fire accident, minimizing human damage.

  • This study introduces an innovative approach to monitor the whereabouts of workers within indoor construction settings. While traditional modalities such as GPS and NTRIP have demonstrated efficacy for outdoor localizations, their precision dwindles in indoor environments. In response, this research advocates for the adoption of Aruco markers. Leveraging computer vision technology, these markers facilitate the quantification of the distance between a worker and the marker, subsequently pinpointing the worker's instantaneous location with heightened accuracy. The methodology's efficacy was rigorously evaluated in a real-world construction scenario. Parameters including system stability, the influence of lighting conditions, the extremity of measurable distances, and the breadth of recognition angles were methodically appraised. System stability was ascertained by maneuvering the camera at a uniform velocity, gauging its marker recognition prowess. The impact of varying luminosity on marker discernibility was scrutinized by modulating the ambient lighting. Furthermore, the camera's spatial movement ascertained both the upper threshold of distance until marker recognition waned and the maximal angle at which markers remained discernible.

  • Korean traditional practice that gets a gravesite for burial and reckless grave establishment not only obstructs systematic national land management and reasonable urban development, but also causes a serious factor which has a harmful effect on natural environment and residential space in reality that our country is limited in area and national and social bases for use and establishment of graves are still inadequite. Though government and local governments have tried to cope with these problems by enacting legislation on funeral and others and so forth, they still have a variety of problems due to the shortage of grave management systems and information of accumulated individual graves. This study describes about the development of a GIS-based grave management system for making administrative management for individual cemeteries the prime object. As a result of application to a pilot area, the system developed in this study was able to be applied for supporting the time-limited burial system and managing cemeteries for those who left no relatives behind by constructing the database with grave-related position/attribute information which are collected by administrative system or direct survey. In addition, it is expected that this system will be utilized as a systematic management method that can be handed down the present or the future descendants under the tradition of the family-oriented funeral culture.
