In this paper, we propose an optimal path search algorithm between each node and midpoint that applies the time weighting. Services for using a location of mid point usually provide a mid point location-based on the location of users. There is a problem that is not efficient in terms of time because a location-based search method is only considered for location. To solve the problem of the existing location-based search method, the proposed algorithm sets the weights between each node and midpoint by reflecting user's location information and required time. Then, by utilizing that, it is possible to search for an optimum path. In addition, to increase the efficiency of the search, it ensures high accuracy by setting weights adaptively to the information given. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is able to find the optimal path to the midpoint compared with the existing method.

In recent days, all the business firms use IT-based services in a variety of ways to facilitate their consumer activities. A typical example is location-based services that send advertisements or discount coupons when a customer approaches near the business place. This is not the direct interaction between the business firms and the customer, and it is one of the way of sending the business related contents to the customer's smart-phone regardless of the customer's intention. The Business firms does not know in real time which customers sent promotional contents. Recently most of the business services are in this way. Therefore, a new type of location-based customer service is required for interaction between the business firm and the customer. This is a system that automatically identifies which customer visit a business place when the customer visits the business place delivers them to the computer of the business place in real time, and provides business customized services using the information. In this paper, we have developed a service based platform to identify the customer as well as interact with the customer based on the location based service using Beacon. This system will also provide an open platform environment that can be easily accessible to the various business firms, rather than limited to a specific business firms.

Stationary nodes and mobile nodes co-exist wireless sensor network(WSN) can provide variety of new services. The stationary sensor node acts not only the gathering the environmental sensing data but also a access point to bidirectional communication with numerous mobile sensor nodes(mobile node), and the mobile sensor nodes are installed inside mobile objects and identify the location in real-time and monitor the internal status of the object. However, only using the legacy WSN protocol, it is impossible to set up the stable network due to the several reasons caused by the free-mobility of the mobile nodes. In this paper, we suggest three methods to increase the hit-ratio of the asynchronous message delivery(AMD) among mobile nodes. We verified the performance of the suggested methods under the stationary-mobile co-existed WSN testbed.

This paper describes the implementation of a robust speaker position location system using the voice signal received by microphone array. To be robust to the reverberation which is the major factor of the performance degradation, low-frequency phase restoration algorithm which eliminates the influence of reverberations using the low-frequency information of the CPSP function is proposed. The implemented real-time system consists of a general purpose DSP (TMS320C31 of Texas instruments), analog part which contains amplifiers and filters, and digital part which is composed of the external memory and 12-bit A/D converter. In the real conference room environment, the implemented system that was constructed by the proposed algorithms showed better performance than the conventional system. The error of the TDOA estimation reduced more than 15 samples.

Through the automatic sensing of the environment, USN technology can give the best services. In this work, we have developed an active RFID system and examined its performance. By implementing it into water quality sensors, we constructed a system that can detect diverse indoor/outdoor environment and provide information about the pollution level obtained from the temperature and PH sensors. Our RF system had an internal Print-on-PCB antenna for the miniaturization of the tag. We used a RF transceiver CC2510 chipset of TI company to realize the active RFID function. By using RSSI constants obtained, we performed the evaluation of real time location accuracy with a software written in Labview. Among 10 arbitrary locations, we obtained average measurement errors of 1.69 m in x axis and 1.66 m in y axis. This technology can be applied to logistics, environmental monitoring, prevention of missing children and various applications.

The fault analysis problem of a distribution network has many difficulties comes from the unbalance of loads or networks and the lacks of load information. The unbalance of loads or networks make the fault location difficult when it use the classical sequence transformation. Moreover the amount of load in the distribution networks fluctuates with time. This paper introduces a recent fault location algorithm using iterative method which handle the unbalance of the problem. But, the fault location errors comes from the load fluctuations still left. For the real application of the new fault location algorithm in distribution networks, this paper studied the effect of the load fluctuations in the algorithm.

In this paper, we implemented a mobile application of location-based augmented reality that combines self-sensing technology and various safety information using technological advancements of the smartphone. Vessel navigation is a suitable area for augmented reality because it requires accurate knowledge of the distance and location of destinations, danger zones, AtoN, and adjacent vessels. Current smartphone applications only provide 2D images and location information. Such applications do not include information about the surrounding environment, and as a result, they can only function using their own sensing information and surrounding information into a location-based augmented reality. If you provide a variety of sensor information embedded in the smartphone to 'BadaGO', the implemented application through this study, 'BadaGO' can provide safe navigation information to the user device in real time with a variety of its own formed information. The user has a high practicality and applicability of a small ship that is supplied with safe navigation information in a changing marine environment only by providing information through the application on the smartphone.

Crowdsensing technologies can improve the efficiency of smart parking system in comparison with present sensor based smart parking system because of low install price and no restriction caused by sensor installation. A lot of sensing data is necessary to predict parking lot saturation in real-time. However in real world, it is hard to reach the required number of sensing data. In this paper, we model a saturation predication combining a time-based prediction model and a sensing data-based prediction model. The time-based model predicts saturation in aspects of parking lot location and time. The sensing data-based model predicts the degree of saturation of the parking lot with high accuracy based on the degree of saturation predicted from the first model, the saturation information in the sensing data, and the number of parking spaces in the sensing data. We perform prediction model learning with real sensing data gathered from a specific parking lot. We also evaluate the performance of the predictive model and show its efficiency and feasibility.

In this study, real-time damage evaluation of cable-stayed bridges was conducted for cable damage. ICP type acceleration sensors were used for real-time damage assessment of cable-stayed bridges, and Kinetic Energy Optimization Techniques (KEOT) were used to select the optimal conditions for the location and quantity of the sensors. When a structure vibrates by an external force, KEOT measures the value of the maximum deformation energy to determine the optimal measurement position and the quantity of sensors. The damage conditions in this study were limited to cable breakage, and cable damage was caused by dividing the cable-stayed bridge into four sections. Through FE structural analysis, a virtual model similar to the actual model was created in the real-time damage evaluation method of cable. After applying random oscillation waves to the generated virtual model and model structure, cable damage to the model structure was caused. The two data were compared by defining the response output from the virtual model as a corruption-free response and the response measured from the real model as a corruption-free data. The degree of damage was evaluated by applying the data of the damaged cable-stayed bridge to the Improved Mahalanobis Distance (IMD) theory from the data of the intact cable-stayed bridge. As a result of evaluating damage with IMD theory, it was identified as a useful damage evaluation technology that can properly find damage by section in real time and apply it to real-time monitoring.

Unlike terrestrial transportation, marine transportation should consider environment factors in order to optimize path planning. This is because, ship's path planning is greatly influenced by real-time ocean environment-sea currents, wave and wind. Therefore, in this study, we suggest a ship path planning algorithm based on real-time ocean environment using not only $A^*$ algorithm but also path smoothing method. Moreover, in order to improve objective function value, we also consider ship's moving distance based on ship's location and real-time ocean environment data on grid map. The efficiency of the suggested algorithm is proved by comparing with $A^*$ algorithm only. This algorithm can be used as a reasonable automatics control system algorithm for unmaned ship.
