Novel concept of sensor mat and its signal processing method is proposed for patient monitoring in medical application. Proposed sensor mat structure has sensing inner layer which has cross-linked arrangement using plastic optical fiber(POF). Large core diameter of plastic optical fiber behaved as band pass filter by averaging the noise component. caused by unwanted environmental factors. Signal processor followed by sensor output added noise immune performance by filtering out unwanted component. Fail-proof patient breath monitoring scheme was realized by using intelligent decision algorithm. Unlike the conventional approach by using mechanical sensor, which have high sensitivity both to intruder and to environmental noise, our approach provided reliable breath motion detection.

본 논문에서는 비교적 밀도가 높게 전개되는 무선 센서네트워크에서 센서노드들의 에너지를 균형있게 소비할 수 있는 클러스터-기반 에너지 소비 균형을 위한 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안하였다. 본 프로토콜은 계층적 구조를 가지는 클러스터-기반으로 구현된다. 클러스터는 위치적으로 가까운 거리에 있는 센서노드들로 형성되며, 해당 클러스터 멤버들 중에서 잔류 에너지가 가장 높은 노드가 헤드노드로 선정된다. 경로 선정에서, 이웃하는 클러스터와 통신의 범위가 중첩되게 하여 그 공통영역 내에 있는 하나의 노드를 중계노드로 선택하여, 통신에너지 소비의 균형을 고려하여 노드들의 수명을 연장할 수 있게 하였다.

Advances in wireless sensor network (WSN) technology have enabled small and low-cost sensors with the capability of sensing various types of physical and environmental conditions, data processing, and wireless communication. In the WSN, the sensor nodes have a limited transmission range and their processing and storage capabilities as well as their energy resources are limited. A triple umpiring system has already been proved for its better performance in WSNs. The clustering technique is effective in prolonging the lifetime of the WSN. In this study, we have modified the ad-hoc on demand distance vector routing by incorporating signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) based dynamic clustering. The proposed scheme, which is an efficient and secure routing protocol for wireless sensor networks through SNR-based dynamic clustering (ESRPSDC) mechanisms, can partition the nodes into clusters and select the cluster head (CH) among the nodes based on the energy, and non CH nodes join with a specific CH based on the SNR values. Error recovery has been implemented during the inter-cluster routing in order to avoid end-to-end error recovery. Security has been achieved by isolating the malicious nodes using sink-based routing pattern analysis. Extensive investigation studies using a global mobile simulator have shown that this hybrid ESRP significantly improves the energy efficiency and packet reception rate as compared with the SNR unaware routing algorithms such as the low energy aware adaptive clustering hierarchy and power efficient gathering in sensor information systems.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 동적 시스템에 대한 consensus 알고리듬은 센서 네트워크의 데이터 융합을 위해 신축적인 알고리듬을 적용할 수 있다. 본 논문은 분산 센서 데이터 기반의 평균적인 consensus 특성을 이용하여 n개의 센서 계측치들의 평균을 추적하기 위해 센서 네트워크의 노드들로 구성되는 하나의 분산 데이터 융합 필터를 구현하였다. 본 consensus 필터는 센서 네트워크에서 분산 칼만 필터링에 의한 구조로 데이터 융합의 문제를 해결한다. consensus 필터의 최적 수렴특성, 잡음 전파의 감소 및 빠른 입력신호들의 추적 능력을 보여준다. 필터링 처리 결과를 확인하기 위해 지그비 통신을 이용하여 각 센서의 출력신호와 필터링 처리 결과 및 각 센서의 개별적 신호들을 통합하고 consensus 필터링 처리 결과를 보였다.

The wireless sensor network (WSN) based on ad hoc network is applied to vehicle parking guide system without parking guide man at area or building with large scale of parking lots. The optimum number of cluster heads was derived for getting the minimum power consumption as well as time delay. Through the theoretical analysis of power consumption and time delay with the number of cluster heads in wireless sensor network, it was found that there exists the minimum point in the variation of power consumption and time delay according to the number of cluster heads.

The performance of a fiber Bragg grating strain sensor constructed with 3$\times$3 coupler is investigated. A 3$\times$3 coupler Mach-Zehnder (M/Z) interferometer is used as wavelength discriminator, interrogating strain-induced Bragg wavelength shifts. Two quadrature-phase-shifted intensities are synthesized from the as-coupled interferometer outputs, and digital arctangent demodulation and phase unwrapping algorithm are applied to extract the phase information proportional to strain. Due to the linear relation between the input strain and the output of quadrature signal processing, signal-fading problems eliminated. In the experiment, a fiber grating that was surface adhered on an aluminum beam was strained in different ways, and the photodetector signals were transferred and processed in a computer-controlled processing unit. A phase recovery fo 7.8$\pi$ pk-pk excursion, which corresponds to ~650$\mu$strain pk-pk of applied strain, was demonstrated. The sensor system was stable over the environmental intensi쇼 perturbations because of the self-referencing effect in the demodulation process.

A strain gauge weight measuring instrumentation system was designed with RF sensor network facilities. In the sensor module system data conversion and a series of signal processing were totally equipped. 16 strain gauges are incoming sensors and each output of the strain gauge was amplified and filtered for proper analog signal processing. Several measuring instrumentation OP amps and general purposed OP amps were used. 12 bits A/D converters converted analog signals to digital bits and a PIC microprocessor controlled the 16 channels of strain gauges. RF RS232 modules were used for wireless communication between the PIC microprocessor and an Ethernet host far a remote sensor monitoring system development.

Surface acoustic wave (SAW) device is widely used as a bandpass filter, a chemical or physical sensor, and an actuator. In this paper, we propose the capacitive gap measurement system with high precision through the signal processing using SAW device. The research process is mainly composed of theoretical part and experimental part. In theoretical part, equivalent circuit model was used to simulate the SAW response by the change of capacitance. In experimental part, commercialized capacitor was used to see the SAW response by the change of load capacitance. After that, gap adjustment system was made physically and the SAW response by the change of gap which caused the capacitance change was measured. And resolution and stroke was decided comparing the signal change and basic measurement noise level.

본 논문에서 Processing 언어를 이용하여 아두이노 기반의 컴퓨터와의 통신을 이용하여 소리를 내는 전자드럼을 설계 하였다. 먼저 피에조 센서를 이용해서 드럼패드를 구현한다. 이때 드럼패드는 센서가 파손되지 않도록 충격을 완화시킬 수 있는 구조로 제작하였다. 이 패드를 아두이노와 연결하여 센서가 충격을 받으면 감지한 신호를 아두이노로 보낸다. 그러면 신호를 받은 아두이노는 컴퓨터에 신호를 전송하고 신호를 받은 컴퓨터는 저장되어 있는 드럼소리를 출력한다. 이러한 구조를 통해서 마이크로 컨트롤러와 컴퓨터의 통신 기술을 이용한 많은 응용 가능한 부분이 있을 것으로 사료된다.
