This paper presents a new concept of IP-based wireless sensor networks and also introduces a routing protocol that is based on clustering for global healthcare information system. Low-power wireless personal area networks (LoWPANs) conform the standard by IEEE 802.15.4-2003 to IPv6 that makes 6lowpan. It characterized by low bit rate, low power, and low cost as well as protocol for wireless connections. The 6lowpan node with biomedical sensor devices fixed on the patient body area network that should be connected to the gateway in personal area network. Each 6lowpan nodes have IP-addresses that would be directly connected to the internet. With the help of IP-address service provider can recognize or analysis patient biomedical data from anywhere on globe by internet service provider equipments such as cell phone, PDA, note book. The system has been evaluated by technical verification, clinical test, user survey and current status of patient. We used NS-2.33 simulator for our prototype and also simulate the routing protocols. The result shows the performance of biomedical data packets in multi-hope routing as well as represents the topology of the networks.

A fully integrated multistandard multiband CMOS mobile TV tuner with small silicon area and low power consumption is proposed for receiving multiple mobile digital TV signals and FM signal. In order to reduce the silicon area of the multistandard multiband receiver, other RF front-end circuits except LNAs are shared and a local oscillator (LO) signal generation architecture with a single VCO for a frequency synthesizer is proposed. To reduce the low frequency noise and the power consumption, a vertical NPN BJT is used in an analog baseband circuits. The RF tuner IC is implemented in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The RF tuner IC satisfies all specifications for DVB-H/T, T-DMB, and ISDB-T with a sufficient margin and a successful demonstration has been carried out for DVB-H/T, T-DMB, and ISDB-T with a digital demodulator.

The EM(Engineering Model) VCO(Voltage Controlled Oscillator) is nonlinear designed for LO(Local Oscillator) of Ka-band satellite transponder. The microstripline coupled with dielectric resonator is implemented as a high impedance inverter to improve the phase noise, and the quality factor of resonant circuit can be transferred to active device with the enhanced loaded quality factor. The developed VCO has the oscillating tuning range of 9.7965~9.8032 GHz for the control voltage range of 0~12 V. This VCO requires the DC power of 8 V and 17 mA. The phase noise characteristics are -96.51 dBc/Hz @10 KHz and -116.5 dBc/Hz @100 KHz, respectively. And, the output power of 7.33 dBm is measured.

A configuration for radio-over-fiber transmission, with remote LO delivery from the central office, and a simple, cost-effective, base station solution is proposed. It is shown that using practically available components, and even with a fiber dispersion of 17 ㎰/nm/km, it is possible to transmit, without repeaters, bit rates of up to 622 Mbit/s for about 20 km at a bit-error rate of 10$\^$-9/, with 0㏈m laser power and a modest optical gain of 6㏈. By increasing the optical gain to 25 ㏈, the link length can be increased to ∼80 km.

The millirneterwave high-T$_{c}$ superconducting(HTS) down-converter sub-system with the HTS/III-V integrated mixer as the central device is demonstrated first. The constituent components of HTS down-converter sub-system such as a single balanced type integrated mixer with rat-race coupler, a cavity type bandpass filter (26 GHz), and a HTS planar lowpass filter(1 GHz), semiconductor LNA and IF-power amplifier, a driving electronic module for A/D converter, and a Stirling type mini-cooler module were combined into an International stand- and rack of 19-inch. From the RF(-61 dBm, 26.5GHz)and LO signal(-1 dBm, 25.6 GHz), IF signal(0dBm, 0.9 GHz) agreed with simulated results is obtained.d.

In this paper, we present the high resolution and low phase noise frequency synthesizer for satellite terminal. To improve the phase noise of frequency synthesizer, we analyze how the configuration of frequency synthesizer affect the phase noise. The implemented frequency synthesizer reduce the phase noise and show the high resolution. The output power of this frequency synthesizer is over -2dBm in 950~1450MHz and the phase noise of the -101dBc/Hz at 10kHz frequency offset.

It is important to estimate the rotor speed for field weakening operation in the speed sensorless stator flux oriented (SFO) induction motor drive. Several methods have been reported to estimate exactly the speed in the speed sensorless system. In this paper, we apply two observer-based methods, the Luenberger observer (LO) and the Kalman filter (KF), to SFO induction motor drive in order to achieve a speed sensorless operation in field weakening region. Two control methods are reviewed and discussed. The operation characteristics of these methods in the field weakening region is compared by simulation and experiment.

In electrical railway system, power supplied to electrical locomotive by catenary is returned to sub-station on track. The current returned to sub-station on track is return current, which is an essential factor for the safety of the wayside electrical equipment and maintenance staff. Therefore, earth system acts an important role to protect wayside electrical equipment and maintenance staff against return current. In general, individual earth system protects partially the electrical railway system, but common earth system does the whole electrical railway system and minimizes the flow of return current. In this paper, we are compared the effect of return current according to earth type by actual measurement in existing electrical railway system. The measurement was conducted at Shinchungju sub~station in high speed trains, and Guro sub-station, which is electrified section in classical line.

In this paper, a smart constrained application protocol (CoAP)-based gateway with a border router is proposed for home safety services to remotely monitor the trespass, fire, and indoor air quality. The smart CoAP gateway controls a home safety sensor node with a pyroelectric infrared motion sensor, a fire sensor, a humidity and temperature sensor, and a non-dispersive infrared CO2 sensor and gathers sensing data from them. In addition, it can convert physical sensing data into understandable information and perform packet conversion as a border router for seamless connection between a low-power wireless personal area network (6LoWPAN) and the Internet (IPv6). Implementation and laboratory test results verify the feasibility of the smart CoAP gateway which especially can provide about 97.20% data throughput.
