기존의 전파에 의존한 실내 위치측위 시스템의 한계점 발생으로 실내환경에서 정확도 향상을 위한 새로운 방법의 도입이 필요한 시점이다. 최근 생태계 모방 기술이 미래의 핵심기술이 되었고, 이에 따라 귀소본능을 가진 동물들이 지구자기장을 탐색하여 생체자석으로 위치친지에 사용하는 점을 적용한 정확한 위치 측위 방법을 연구하였다. 실내 위치측위를 위한 새로운 자원인 지구자기장의 적용 가능성을 확인하기 위해 건물구조, 구성재료를 구분하고 실제 자기장센서를 탑재할 수 있는 구조물과 데이터수집 모듈을 설계한 뒤, Fingerprint 기법의 위치측위 시스템을 구성하여 위치측위 자원으로서의 지구자기장의 적용 가능성을 연구하였다. 위치측위 시스템 성능 평가에서 기존의 무선랜이 설치된 건물에서는 지구자기장 세기 기반의 위치측위 시스템이 무선랜 기반 위치측위 시스템과 유사하거나 약 20% 성능이 높이 나타났다. 이와같이 실내 위치측위를 위한 인프라 설치가 되어 있지 않는 환경에서는 지구자기장이라는 고유의 지구자원으로 실내 위치측위가 가능하다.

Position estimation in indoor is significant problem, because GPS which is usually used for outdoor positioning cannot be utilized to indoor positioning. Sensor network can be a solution for the positioning. Recently, chirp spread spectrum(CSS) specified in IEEE 802.15.4a provides an ability of ranging. Based on the results of the ranging, a position of a CSS node can be calculated by using trilateration. In this case, Kalman filter can be applied to the trilateration because of the measurement noise. In this paper, we apply the unscented Kalman filter for the trilateration. The trilateration can be represented to a nonlinear state space equation, and the unscented Kalman filter is suitable for nonlinear state space equation. Through the experimental results. we show the accuracy of the estimated position.

The high precision positioning mechanism is used in various industrial fields. It is used in semiconductor manufacturing line, test instrument, Bioengineering, and MEMS and so on. This paper presents a positioning mechanism with dual servo system. Dual servo system consists of a coarse stage and a fine motion stage. The course stage is driven by VCM and the actuator of fine stage is the PZT. The purposes of dual servo system are stability, higher bandwidth, and robustness. Lead compensator is applied to this control system, and is designed by PQ method. Designed compensator can improve property of positioning mechanism.

The necessity for the precise time synchronization of measurement data from multiple sensors is widely recognized in the field of global positioning system/inertial navigation system (GPS/INS) integration. Having precise time synchronization is critical for achieving high data fusion performance. The limitations and advantages of various time synchronization scenarios and existing solutions are investigated in this paper. A criterion for evaluating synchronization accuracy requirements is derived on the basis of a comparison of the Kalman filter innovation series and the platform dynamics. An innovative time synchronization solution using a counter and two latching registers is proposed. The proposed solution has been implemented with off-the-shelf components and tested. The resolution and accuracy analysis shows that the proposed solution can achieve a time synchronization accuracy of 0.1 ms if INS can provide a hard-wired timing signal. A synchronization accuracy of 2 ms was achieved when the test system was used to synchronize a low-grade micro-electromechanical inertial measurement unit (IMU), which has only an RS-232 data output interface.

This paper dealt with the acoustic detection of partial discharge (PD) in insulation oil for insulation diagnostics of oil immersed transformers. Electrode systems such as needle to plane, plane to plane, and floating were fabricated to simulate some defects in transformers. A wide band acoustic emission(AE) sensor with the frequency ranges of 100 kHz~1 MHz and a narrow band AE sensor with the resonant frequency of 140 kHz were used in the experiment. Also, a decoupler and an amplifier were designed to detect and amplify the acoustic signal only. The decoupler separates acoustic signal from DC source without any distortion, and the amplifier has the gain of 40 dB in frequency ranges of 11 kHz~4 MHz. In the experiment, frequency components and propagation characteristics of acoustic signal were analyzed, and an algorithm of positioning of PD occurrence by the time difference of arrival was proposed. From the results, the frequency components of the acoustic signal exist from 50 kHz to 200 kHz and the positioning error of PD calculated by three AE sensors was within 1%.

The Integration technique of combining the measurement method with the fine precision of the sensor collecting the satellite-based information to determine the displacement space is available to a variety of diagnostic information. The measurement method by a GNSS with the sensors is needed since there will always be occasional occurrence of natural disasters caused by various environmental factors and the surroundings. Such attempts carried out nationally by distributed torsional displacement of the terrain and facilities. The combination of the various positioning analysis of mm-class for the facility of main area observed is required constantly in real time information of the USN/IoT Smart sensors and should be able to utilize such information as a precisely fine positioning information for the precisely fine displacement of the semi-permanent main facilities. In this study, for the installation of the receiving system, the USN/IoT base line positioning are easily accessible for the target bridges. Transmitting hourly from the received data is also executed in real time using the wireless Wi-Fi/Bluetooth bridges and related facilities to automatically process a fine position displacement. The results obtained from this method can be analyzed by real-time monitoring for a large structure or facilities for disaster prevention.

For machining systems having a high precision positioning with a long stroke, it is necessary to examine the repeatability of reference position decisions. Though ball-screw driven linear stages equipped with encoders have high precision feed drivers and a long stroke, they have some limitations for reference position decisions if they have not been equipped accurate home sensors. High precision machining technology has become one of the most important aspects of the development of a precision machine. Such a machine requires high precision positioning as well as high speed on a large workspace. This study is performed to experimentally compare the repeatability for home position decisions in the case of photo sensors and hall sensors as a home switch of the ball-screw driven linear stage.

This paper describes the design and implementation of an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) and also estimates how well autonomous navigation and remote control of UGV can be performed through the optimized arbitration of several sensor data, which are acquired from vision, obstacle detection, positioning system, etc. For the autonomous navigation, lane detection and tracing, global positioning, and obstacle avoidance are necessarily required. In addition, for the remote control, two types of experimental environments are established. One is to use a commercial racing wheel module, and the other is to use a haptic device that is useful for a user application based on virtual reality. Experimental results show that autonomous navigation and remote control of the designed UGV can be achieved with more effectiveness and accuracy using the proper arbitration of sensor data and navigation plan.

Recently, various researches in respect of the positioning technologies using satellites and the other sensors have made location-based services (LBS) more common and accurate. Consequently, concern about position information has been increasing. However, since these positioning systems only focus on user's position, it is difficult to know the user's attitude or detailed behaviors at the specific position. It is worthy to study on how to acquire such human attitude or behavior, because those information is useful to know the context of the user. In this paper, the sensor unit consisting of three dimensional accelerometer was attached to human body, and autonomously measured the perpendicular acceleration of ordinary human behaviors including activity modes such as walking, running, and transportation mode using transportation such as a train, a bus, and an elevator. Subsequently, using the classified measurement results, the method to identify the human activity modes was proposed.
