In this study, an IoT inspection system that can be linked with a server was developed using a gas timer and ESP-01 Wi-Fi module installed on a gas valve in the home. The server environment of the gas leak IoT inspection system was installed with APM (Apache, PHP, MySQL) to collect gas pressure data by generation so that leakage checks could be performed. In order to control the gas leak IoT inspection system, the app inventory was used to manage the gas leak check value in real time. In addition, user convenience has been enhanced so that membership management, WiFi settings, and leakage check values can be checked through mobile apps. In order to manage subscribers by region, the user list was checked by logging in in in the administrator mode so that the information on whether or not the leak test was conducted and the results could be provided. In addition, when the user presses the gas leak check button, the pressure is automatically checked, and the measured value is stored in the server, and when a gas leak occurs, the leakage check is performed after alarm and repair so that it can be used if normal. In addition, in order to prevent overlapping membership, membership management can be performed based on MAC addresses.

Safety is a big issue in the construction sites. For safe and secure management, tracking locations of construction resources such as labors, materials, machineries, vehicles and so on is important. The materials, machineries and vehicles could be controlled by computer, whereas the movement of labors does not have fixed pattern. So, the location and movement of labors need to be monitored continuously for safety. In general, Global Positioning System(GPS) is an opt solution to obtain the location information in outside environments. But it cannot be used for indoor locations as it requires a clear Line-Of-Sight(LOS) to satellites Therefore, indoor location monitoring system could be a convenient alternative for environments such as tunnel and indoor building construction sites. This paper presents a case study to investigate feasibility of Wi-Fi based indoor location monitoring system in construction site. The system is developed by using fingerprint map of gathering Received Signal Strength Indication(RSSI) from each Access Point(AP). The signal information is gathered by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags, which are attached on a helmet of labors to track their locations, and is sent to server computer. Experiments were conducted in a shield tunnel construction site at Guangzhou, China. This study consists of three phases as follows: First, we have a tracking test in entrance area of tunnel construction site. This experiment was performed to find the effective geometry of APs installation. The geometry of APs installation was changed for finding effective locations, and the experiment was performed using one and more tags. Second, APs were separated into two groups, and they were connected with LAN cable in tunnel construction site. The purpose of this experiment was to check the validity of group separating strategy. One group was installed around the entrance and the other one was installed inside the tunnel. Finally, we installed the system inner area of tunnel, boring machine area, and checked the performance with varying conditions (the presence of obstacles such as train, worker, and so on). Accuracy of this study was calculated from the data, which was collected at some known points. Experimental results showed that WiFi-based indoor location system has a level of accuracy of a few meters in tunnel construction site. From the results, it is inferred that the location tracking system can track the approximate location of labors in the construction site. It is able to alert the labors when they are closer to dangerous zones like poisonous region or cave-in..

Tunnels have limited evacuation areas, and It is difficult for cars coming from behind to recognize the accident situation in front. Since an accident is very likely to lead to a serious secondary accident, a IoT-based smart tunnel accident warning system was studied to prepare for traffic accidents that occur in tunnels. If the measured values from the flame detection sensor, gas detection sensor, and shock detection sensor in the tunnel exceed the standard, it is judged to be an emergency situation and an alert system is designed to operate. The accident information message was designed to be displayed on the LCD and transmitted to drivers inside and outside the tunnel through a Wi-Fi communication network. A performance test system was established and performance evaluation was performed for several accident scenarios. As a result of the test, it was confirmed that the accident alert system can accurately detect accidents based on given reference values, perform alert procedures, and transmit alert messages to smart phones through Wi-Fi wireless communication. And through this, its effectiveness could be confirmed.

최근 스마트폰과 같은 모바일 단말기는 데이터 통신을 위해 3G, WiFi, WiBro, LTE 와 같은 다수의 네트워크 인터페이스를 가지고 있다. 또한 이와 같은 모바일 단말기는 대부분 배터리로 동작하기 때문에 에너지 효율성은 매우 중요한 요소이다. 따라서 해당 단말이 통신을 할 때, 주변 네트워크 환경에 따라 에너지, 통신비용 등을 고려하여 최적의 네트워크를 선택하여 사용할 수 있다. 이 때 주변 네트워크 환경에 따라 최적의 네트워크 인터페이스를 탐색하고 선택하는 것은 사용자의 명시적인 선택이나 주기적인 탐색 방법 등이 사용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 네트워크 탐색 주기에 따른 다중 네트워크 인터페이스 단말기의 에너지 효율성을 분석하고 효율적으로 네트워크 인터페이스를 선택하는 미들웨어의 프로토타입을 구현하고 평가하였다.

본 논문에서는 케이블 TV 콘텐트를 대용량의 Wi-Fi 통신을 이용하여 전송하고, 집 안에 배치된 여러 가지의 수신기를 이용하여 콘텐트를 편하게 즐길 수 있는 서비스에 적합한 SM(spatial modulation) 전송기법의 수신 성능을 분석한다. 케이블 채널의 개수는 100가지가 넘으며 HD 이상의 화질을 가진다. 이러한 수십 개의 대용량 콘텐트를 무선으로 한정된 대역폭에 전송하기 위해서는 공간다중화 방식의 MIMO 기법이 필요하다. 그 중에서도 채널 간의 간섭이 많은 집 안 환경에 적합한 SM 전송기법은 수신 신호간의 간섭이 없으며 수신기가 간단하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한 기존 SM의 낮은 대역효율을 증가시키기 위한 golden-SM 방식도 제안되었다. 그러나 실제 채널 환경에서의 기존 SM 전송기법들의 수신 성능은 비교된 것이 거의 없으므로 본 논문에서는 WiMAX(IEEE802.16a)에서 사용되고 있는 SUI 채널 모델을 고려하여 기존 SM 기법들의 수신 성능을 비교분석하였다.

A low profile asymmetrical fractal boundary patch antenna based on reactive impedance surface (RIS) and a mushroom unit cell (MUC) is proposed and studied for dual band operation. The sides of the square patch antenna are replaced with asymmetrical half circled fractal curves for circular polarization operation at patch mode band. The fractal patch antenna is loaded with MUC for dual band operation. The antenna radiation characteristics are investigated and illustrated with both simulated and experimental results in detail. The 10-dB return loss bandwidth are 8.48% (3.21-3.49 GHz) and 2.59% (2.30-2.36 GHz) at upper and lower resonance frequencies, respectively. The 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth is 4.26% (3.21-3.35 GHz). A close agreement between simulation data with experimental results is observed.

The number of mobile devices roaming into a ubiquitous city (u-city) continues to rise as wireless systems have been widely deployed. The number of mobile devices also varies with time, and they tend to frequently change their locations. In addition, the available wireless access networks may belong to different domains, administrations, management, and internet service providers (ISPs). A fusion of overlapping heterogeneous wireless access networks (e.g., WiMax, Wi-Fi, LTE, etc.) serves the u-city in order to reach different coverage. In this context, technical challenges arise in mobility management for heterogeneous networks to realize their potential coverage and capacity benefits. This paper deals with the analysis of a decentralized mobility management support for u-City wireless network infrastructure. This scheme takes advantage of the features of the fully-distributed model of networked-based mobility management protocol to alleviate and realize the ubiquitous requirements of a u-City.

A compact triple-band porous electromagnetic bandgap structure-loaded coplanar-waveguide-fed wearable antenna is introduced for applications of wireless body area networks. The porous structure is aimed to create a stopband or bandgap in the electromagnetic spectrum and increase breathability. The holes in the bottom electromagnetic bandgap surface increase the inductance, which in turn increases the bandwidth. The final design resonates at three bands with impedance bandwidths of 264 MHz, 100 MHz, and 153 MHz and maximum gains of 2.18 dBi, 6.75 dBi, and 9.50 dBi at 2.45 GHz, 3.5 GHz, and 5.5 GHz, respectively. In addition, measurements indicate that the proposed design can be deformed up to certain curvature and withstand human tissue loading. Moreover, the specific absorption rate remains within safe levels for humans. Therefore, the proposed antenna can suitably operate in the industrial, scientific, and medical, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and WiMAX bands for potential application to wireless body area networks.

IEEE 802.11 표준에 포함되어 있는 WEP 방식의 무선 랜 보안이 취약한 것으로 알려진 후 WEP을 대치할 새로운 표준이 802.1li 워킹그룹에 의하여 작성되고 있다. Wi-Fi는 중간단계로서 802.1li의 일부만을 구현하는 WPA 규격을 만들었다. 이 규격은 기존의 하드웨어를 그대로 사용하면서 소프트웨어와 펌웨어 갱신만으로 기존의 무선랜 취약점을 제거할 수 있게 한다. WPA규격을 준수하는 무선 랜 액세스포인트의 개발을 위하여 기존의 액세스포인트 디바이스 드라이버를 WPA를 지원하도록 수정하였으며, 사용자 인증 및 키 교환을 수행하는 소프트웨어를 설계 및 개발하였다.
