  • 초광대역 (UWB)통신기술을 응용한 다양한 무선측위시스템은 향후, 전기-IT융합 유비쿼터스 전기설비 환경의 센서네트워크에서 중요한 역할로 대두된다. 이러한 UWB기반의 무선측위시스템은 UWB송수신기 자체의 정밀거리산출기능의 정확도 정도에 따라 그 성능이 직접적으로 좌우된다. 본 논문에서는 현재 논의되고 있는 UWB 레인징기술에 대한 소개와 특히 저비용, 저전력 운영이 가능한 단순한 구조를 갖는 비가역성(Non-coherent) UWB 레인징 시스템구조에 대해 새롭게 제안하고자 한다.

  • 스마트폰의 GPS 기능으로 위치 정보를 수집하여 사용자에게 서비스를 제공하는 시스템이 많아지고 있다. 이러한 GPS 기능은 위성에서 송신된 신호로 위도와 경도를 측정하여 위치를 계산한다. 하지만, 이러한 기능은 사용자가 실외에 있을 경우에만 사용이 가능한 것으로, 실내에서는 사용이 불가능하다는 단점이 있다. 최근 상용화 되고 있는 UWB 레이더 센서는 실내외에서 사용이 가능하고, 객체 탐지 및 거리측정이 간단함과 동시에 저렴하다는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 UWB 레이더 센서와 표준편차를 이용하여 거리 측정 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 제시하고 있는 방법은 레이더 센서에서 나오는 raw data를 그래프화 하여 최대 탐지 거리가 몇 m 인지 파악하고, 파악된 최대 감지 거리를 일정 구간으로 나누어 구간별 거리를 측정한다. 그 후 표준편차 공식을 이용하여 객체의 유무를 판단한다. 실험 결과에서는 제시하는 방법으로 최대 거리 9.7m에서 최대 오차 0.27m 이내로 측정되는 것을 확인하였다.

  • In this article a novel constant amplitude precoding for impulse UWB system is proposed. According to IEEE 802.15.4a, impulse UWB can be used in indoor localization and sensor data transmission. Most USN(ubiquitous sensor networks) needs multiple access. However impulse UWB system has a limited capability to detect superpositioned signal induced by multiple access. To overcome this problem we have adopted the concept of CAMC(Constant Amplitude Multi-Code) deviced by Wada and Kim. The proposed system consists of systematic constant amplitude precoding and LDPC decoding. And this system shows a good BER performance in computer simulation.

  • In this paper, we analyze the active RFID system ISO/IEC 18000-7. In order to apply to USN, which consists active RFID tags and sensor nodes, we propose UWB-based Class 4 active RFID protocol using active RFID relay tag as relay AP. To compare the performance between the existing ISO/IEC 18000-7 system and the proposed system, we introduce sensitivity-based measurement of achieved coverage and system efficiency. Also, we analyze the performance of the proposed system and compare it with that of the existing system through MCL analysis and SLS analysis.

  • As the world becomes an aging society due to a decrease in the birth rate and an increase in life expectancy, a system for health management of the elderly population is needed. Among them, various studies on occupancy and activity types are being conducted for smart home care services for indoor health management. In this paper, we propose a random forest model that classifies activity type as well as occupancy status through indoor temperature and humidity, CO2, fine dust values and UWB radar positioning for smart home care service. The experiment measures indoor environment and occupant positioning data at 2-second intervals using three sensors that measure indoor temperature and humidity, CO2, and fine dust and two UWB radars. The measured data is divided into 80% training set data and 20% test set data after correcting outliers and missing values, and the random forest model is applied to evaluate the list of important variables, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity.

  • In this paper, we propose a vehicular cooperative navigation system using GNSS, vision sensor and radar sensor that are frequently used in mass-produced cars. The proposed cooperative vehicular navigation system is a variant of the Hybrid-Sum Product Algorithm over Wireless Network (H-SPAWN), where we use vision and radar sensors instead of radio ranging(i.e.,UWB). The performance is compared and analyzed with respect to the sensors, especially the position estimation error decreased about fifty percent when using radar compared to vision and radio ranging. In conclusion, the proposed system with these popular sensors can improve position accuracy compared to conventional cooperative navigation system(i.e.,H-SPAWN) and decrease implementation costs.

  • In the parer, we design a non-coherent UWB system by adopting the architecture of a simplified asynchronous transmission and the edge-triggered pulse transmission, which makes e system performance independent of the share of the transmitted waveform, robust to multipath channels. The designed non-coherent UWB transceiver architecture has an advantage of the simple realization since any mixer, high-speed correlator, and high-sampling A/D converter are not necessary at the cost of performance degradation of about 3dB. Further, the designed non-coherent UWB transceiver is actually implemented with the wireless CANVAS prototype testbed in short range indoor application environments such as a lecture room. The implemented prototype testbed is proven to offer the data rate of 115kbps on the conditions of Peer-to-Peer(P-to-P) in the indoor channel within the range of about 10m.

  • In this paper, we propose a system that can more precisely identify and monitor the position of the tool used in the assembling workplace such as automobile production. The proposed positioning monitoring system is a combination of UWB communication module and MEMS IMU sensor. Since UWB does not need modulation and demodulation function and has low power density, UWB is widely used in indoor positioning field. However, it may cause positioning error due to errors in RF transmission and reception process, which may cause positioning accuracy. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an algorithm that uses IMU as an auxiliary means to compensate for errors that may occur in positioning using only UWB. The tag and anchor of UWB module measure the transmission / reception time by transmitting signals to each other and then estimate the distance between tag and anchor. The MEMS IMU sensor serves to provide positioning calibration information. The tag, which is a mobile node and attached to a moving tool, measures the three-dimensional position of the tool and transfers the coordinate data to the anchor. Thus, it is possible to confirm whether or not the specific tool is properly used according to the prescribed regulations.

  • This paper presents implementation of localization system using UWB (Ultra-Wide Band) sensors and its experimental results along with development of context-aware services. In order for precise measurement of position, we experimented various conditions of pitch angles, yaw angles, number of sensors, height of tags along with measuring errors at each installation. As an application examples of the location tracking system, we developed an intelligent health training management system based on context-aware technology. The system provides appropriate training schedule to a trainee by recognizing position of the trainee and current status of gymnastic equipments and note the usage of the equipment through a personal digital assistant (PDA). Error compensation on position data and moving direction of the trainee was necessary for context-aware service. Hence, we proposed an error compensation algorithm using velocity of the trainee. Experimental results showed that proposed algorithm had made error data reduce by 30% comparing with the data without applying the algorithm.
