WSN (Wireless Sensor Network)에서 무선 데이터 전송 환경은 시스템 성능에 중요한 역할을 한다. 제안 이동 모델에서 이동 거리는 통신 성능에 많은 영향을 준다. 송수신 거리(d), 경로 손실(Path Loss), 수신 감도(Sensitivity), 비트 오류율(Bit Error Rate, BER), 신호 대 잡음 비율(SNR, Signal to Noise Ratio) 등은 무선 통신 시스템 설계할 때 고려사항들이다. 특히 MANET은 외부 기간망의 도움 없이 독립적으로 무선 단말끼리 만 서로 통신하며 이동하는 망의 형태이다. 본 논문은 WSN에서의 최적화된 전력사용 방안으로 이동 노드들의 이동 거리가 시스템 전체 에너지 효율에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구이다. 센서 노드들의 이동 가능 거리를 통신 가능 범위 안으로 제안함으로써 전체 네트워크의 수명을 연장하는 것을 본 연구의 목적으로 한다.

This paper presents an inkjet-printed plastic force sensor using PEDOT:PSS. Using a piezoelectric-type inkjet printer, the force sensor was manufactured by printing PEDOT:PSS ink onto a polyimide (PI) substrate film. Applying a vertical force of 0 to 100 N to the force sensor on the PI substrate with a thickness of 64 mm, the resistance of the force sensor increased in proportion to the input force by the length deformation of the PI substrates and the sensor pattern. As a result, the fabricated sensor has a characteristic of 0.001% /N with a linearity of 99.38%. In addition, as the thickness of the PI substrate film increased, the sensitivity of the sensor increased linearly. The fabricated force sensor is expected to be applied to industrial sites and healthcare fields.

Dual electromagnetic sensor is used for sensing the weld line. The sensor consists of excitation and two sensing coil wound over the ferro-magnetic core. By using the dual sensor, the effect of noise is minimized. It is based on the generation of eddy currents in the welding plate by passing current through the excitation coil. The sensor can be used to track the butt joints having no gap between them, where a vision based sensor fails to track. Sensor sensitivity depends on the number of coil turns, frequency of excitation, distance of a sensor from the work piece, diameter of core, etc. The whole system consists of a sensor, a signal processing board, a motion controller and a personnel computer (PC). The raw sensor signal is processed using the signal processing board. It consists of amplification, rectification, filtering, averaging, offset adjustment, etc. Based on sensor data, the motion controller adjusts the position of a welding torch.

Self-powered neutron detector (SPND) is a sensor to monitor a neutron flux proportional to a reactor power of the nuclear power plants. Since an SPND is usually installed in the reactor core and does not require additional outside power, it generates electrons itself from interaction between neutrons and a neutron-sensitive material called an emitter, such as rhodium and vanadium. This paper presents the simulations of the depletion sensitivity evaluations based on MCNP models of rhodium and vanadium SPNDs and light water reactor fuel assembly. The evaluations include the detail geometries of the detectors and fuel assembly, and the modeling of rhodium and vanadium emitter depletion using MCNP and ORIGEN-S codes, and the realistic energy spectrum of beta rays using BETA-S code. The results of the simulations show that the lifetime of an SPND can be prolonged by using vanadium SPND than rhodium SPND. Also, the methods presented here can be used to analyze a life-time of those SPNDs using various emitter materials.

The important factors in sensors are sensitivity, selectivity, and response time. Oxide semiconductors are high sensitivity, fast response and the advantage of miniaturization. Zn-doped $SnO_2$ materials have been synthesized in order to improve the selectivity of the sensor. ZnO/$SnO_2$ crystals were prepared by a simple hydrothermal process and ultrasound pretreated hydrothermal process. ZnO/$SnO_2$ urchins were fabricated in the precursor solution with [$Zn^{2+}$]:[$Sn^{4+}$] ratio of 1:5 and rod structures were fabricated ratio of 1:1 and 1:3. Surface area ratio was increased by increasing the ratio of [$Sn^{4+}$]. The sensitivity of sensors were highest at the [$Zn^{2+}$]:[$Sn^{4+}$] ratio of 1:5 in ethanol, acetaldehyde, toluene, and nitric oxide.

We fabricated electrolyte-insulator-semiconductor (EIS) devices using a solution process and measured the sensing properties of EIS devices according to the thicknesses of sensing membrane. For high pH sensitivity and better stability properties, we used $SiO_2/HfO_x$ (OH) layer as a sensing membrane. In this work, $HfO_x$ sensing membranes were deposited on 5 nm thick $SiO_2$ buffer layer by spin coater with thicknesses of 15, 31, 42, 55 nm, respectively. As a result, we founded that the thickness of $HfO_x$ sensing membrane affects to sensitivity and chemical stability of EIS device. Especially, the EIS device with 42 nm thick $HfO_x$ membrane showed superior sensing ability in terms of pH-sensitivity, linearity, hysteresis voltage and drift rate characteristics than the other devices. In conclusion, we confirmed that it is possible to improve the sensing ability and the chemical stability properties using optimized thickness of sensing membrane and proper annealing process.

ZnO nanorods for gas sensors were prepared by a hydrothermal method. The ZnO gas sensors were fabricated on alumina substrates by a screen printing method. The gas-sensing properties of the ZnO nanorods were investigated for $CH_4$ gas. The effects of growth time on the structural and morphological properties of the ZnO nanorods were investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope. The XRD patterns of the nanocrystallized ZnO nanorods showed a wurtzite structure with the (002) predominant orientation. The diameter and length of the ZnO nanorods increased in proportion to the growth time. The sensitivity of the ZnO sensors to 5 ppm $CH_4$ gas was investigated for various growth times. The ZnO sensors exhibited good sensitivity and rapid response-recovery characteristics to $CH_4$ gas, and both traits were dependent on the growth time. The highest sensitivity of the ZnO sensors to $CH_4$ gas was observed with the growth time of 7 h. The response and recovery times were 13 s and 6 s, respectively.

A simple process of fabricating micropillar structure and its influence upon enhancing electrochemical biosensor response were studied in this work. Conducting polymer PEDOT was used as a base material in formulating a composite with PVA. Micro porous PC membrane filter was used as a template for the micropillar of the composite on ITO electrode. This structure could provide plenty of encapsulating space for enzyme species. After dosing enzyme solution into this space, Nafion film tent was cast over the pillar structure to complete the micropillar cavity structure. In this way, the encapsulation of enzyme could be accomplished without any chemical modification. The amount of enzyme species was easily controllable by varying the concentration of the dosing solution. The more amount of enzyme is stored in the sensor, the higher the electrochemical response is produced. One more reason for the sensitivity improvement comes from the large surface area of the micropillar structure. Application of 0.7 V produced the best current response under the condition of pH 7.4. This biosensor showed linear response to the glucose in 0.1~1 mM range with the average sensitivity of $14.06{\mu}A/mMcm^2$. Detection limit was 0.01 mM based on S/N = 3.
