Recently, the interests of the precise localization are rapidly increasing, which are linked to IoT(Internet of Things) sensors. The precise localization in indoor environment can be utilized in navigation, security, anti-collision, and various location based services etc. However, conventional positioning sensors, such as PIR, ultrasonic, microwave etc. are vulnerable to weather or insensitive to direction of subject movement or low precision performance. In this paper we implement a UWB-IR localization system for long distance and high-precision localization, which is not affected by temperature, light and weather. The proposed system was divided and designed by H/W, Antenna, S/W parts, each of which was designed based on an accurate analysis and simulation. As a result, we can implemented and verified UWB IR system with precise localization performance.

In this paper, we suggest the tracking method of moving multi-objects in maritime environments. The image acquisition is conducted using IR(InfraRed) camera sensors on an airborne platform. Under the circumstance of maritime, the qualities of IR images can be significantly degraded due to the clutter influence, which directly gives rise to a tracking loss problem. In order to reduce the effects from the clutters, we introduce a technical approach under Man-In-The-Loop(MITL) system for enhancing the tracking performance. To demonstrate the robustness of the proposed approach based on VTG(Valid Tracking Gate), the simulations are conducted utilizing the airborne IR video sequences: Then, the tracking performances are compared with the existing Kalman Filter tracking techniques.

잠수함이 가장 취약한 시기는 잠수함이 스노클이나 잠망경 운용을 위하여 잠망경 심도로 항해할 경우이며, 이때에는 비음향 탐지센서인 레이더와 광학, 사람에 의한 시각에 탐지될 확률이 매우 높다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 상황에서 탐지되는 취약성을 극복하고자 잠수함 마스트 및 잠망경 부분에 비음향 스텔스를 적용하고자 한다. 먼저 비음향 탐지센서에 대해서 조사하고, 그에 따른 스텔스 기법을 분야별 분석하여 최적화한 결과 다층형 구조로 선체표면부터 RAM layer, IR layer, Camouflage layer 구조로 각각 RAM layer는 자성재료인 페라이트계열로 3~5 mm, IR layer는 Ceramic 또는 Nickel 계열로 1~2 mm, Camouflage layer는 군청색 계열 페인팅을 제시하였다.

In this paper, the IR and compass sensors for the underwater system were used. The walls of the water tank have been recognized and avoided treating the walls as obstacles by the bio-mimetic underwater robot. This paper is consists of two parts: 1.The hardware part for the IR and compass sensors and 2.The software part for obstacle avoidance algorithm while the bio-mimetic robot is swimming with the obstacle recognition. Firstly, the hardware part controls through the RS-485 communications between a microcontroller and the bio-mimetic underwater robot. The software part is simulated for obstacle recognition and collision avoidance based upon the data from IR and compass sensors. Actually, the bio-mimetic underwater robot recognizes where is the obstacle as well as where is the bio-mimetic robot itself while it is moving in the water. While the underwater robot is moving at a constant speed recognizing the wall of water tank as an obstacle, an obstacle avoidance algorithm is applied for the wall following swimming based upon the IR and compass sensor data. As the results of this research, it is concluded that the bio-mimetic underwater robot can follow the wall of the water tank efficiently, while it is avoiding collision to the wall.

In this work, a new fluorescence emission measurement technology was introduced and experimentally compared with other measurement methods, such as the titration method and IR spectroscopy, to validate it for the oil oxidation measurement of electrical insulating oil. The oxidation characteristics of insulating oil were found to be fairly represented by the titration method and IR spectroscopy, and the results are comparable to a change in the fluorescence emission ratio that is defined as the shift in fluorescence intensity in the measured wavelength range. The result also shows that by the measurement of fluorescence emission ratio, it is possible to detect the oxidation of oil relatively earlier than by other methods. This study suggests that the developed technology can provide sufficient information for evaluating the insulating oil quality, and that the developed FER sensor can be used as an effective condition monitoring device of electrical insulating oil oxidation.

A quality monitoring system in butt welding process is proposed to estimate weld pool sizes. The geometrical parameters of the weld pool such as the top bead width and the penetration depth plus half back width are utilized to prove the integrity of the weld quality. The monitoring variables used are the surface temperatures measured at three points on the top surface of the weldment. The temperature profile is assumed that it has a gaussian distribution in vertical direction of torch movement and verify this assumption through temperature analysis. A neural network estimator is designed to estimate weld pool size from temperature informations. The experimental results show that the proposed neural network estimator which used gaussian distribution as temperature information can estimate the weld pool sizes accurately than used three point temperatures as temperature information. Considering the change of gap size in butt welding, the experiment were performed on various gap size.

A Protomodel Space Infrared Cryogenic System (PSICS) cooled by a stirling cryocooler was designed. The PSICS has an IR sensor inside a cold box which is cooled by a stilting cryocooler with refrigeration capacity of 500mw at 80K in a vacuum vessel. It is important to minimize heat load for reducing background thermal noise. In order to design the cryogenic system of low heat load and to reduce heat load, we did several numerical analyses and tested using boil-off calorimetry with liquid nitrogen to measure the heat leak of the system. In this paper, we present the results obtained by thermal analysis and heat load measurement for designing the PSICS.

This work presents an Internet of Things (IoT) system for home energy management based on a custom-designed Impulse Radio Ultra-Wideband (IR-UWB) transceiver that targets a generic and multi-standard control system. This control system enables the interoperability of heterogeneous devices: it integrates various sensor nodes based on ZigBee, EnOcean and UWB in the same middleware by utilizing an ad-hoc layer as an interface between the hardware and software. The paper presents as a first the design of the IR-UWB transceiver for a portable sensor node integrated with the middleware layer, and also describes the receiver connected to the control system. The custom-designed low-power transmitter on the sensor node is fabricated with 130 nm CMOS technology. It generates a signal with a 1.1 ns pulse width while consuming $39{\mu}W$ at 1 Mbps. The UWB sensor node with a temperature measurement capability consumes 5.31 mW, which is lower than the power level of state-of-the-art solutions for smart-home applications. The UWB hardware and software layers necessary to interface with the control system are verified in over-the-air measurements in an actual office environment. With the implementation of the presented sensor node and its integration in the energy management system, we demonstrate achievement of the broad flexibility demanded for IoT.

스핀밸브 GMR(giant magnetoresistance) 구조를 갖는 Ta/NiFe/CoFe/Cu/NiFe/IrMn/Ta재료의 자유층에 의한 PHR (planar hall resistance) 특성을 이용한 자기 바이오센서를 제작하였다. PHR 소자는 사진식각 및 건식에칭 공정을 통하여 마이크로 사이즈로 제작되었다. 직경이 $2.8\;{\mu}m$인 단일 자기비드가 있는 경우와 자기비드가 없는 경우 자기장의 세기에 다른 PHR 신호를 측정하였으며, 직경이 $2.8\;{\mu}m$인 단일 자기비드 측정에 성공하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제작한 PHR센서는 자기비드 입자의 유무에 따른 출력 특성의 차이를 이용하여 단일 자기비드 측정이 가능한 고분해능 자기 바이오센서에 응용될 수 있다.
