In this paper, we proposed the biological signal (body heat, pulse, breathe rate, and blood pressure) analysis system using wireless sensor. In order to analyze, we designed a back-propagation neural network system using expert group system. The proposed system is consist of hardware patt such as UStar-2400 ISP and Wireless sensor and software part such as Knowledge Base module, Inference Engine module and User Interface module which is inserted in Host PC. To improve the accuracy of the system, we implement a FEC (Forward Error Correction) block. For conducting simulation, we chose 100 data sets from Knowledge Base module to train the neural network. As a result, we obtained about 95% accuracy using 128 data sets from Knowledge Base module and acquired about 85% accuracy which experiments 13 students using wireless sensor.

Given the rapidly increasing market penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems in many fields, including construction and housing, the effective maintenance of PV systems through remote monitoring at the panel level has attracted attention to quickly detect faults that cause reductions in yearly PV energy production, and which can reduce the whole-life cost. A key point of PV monitoring at the panel level is cost-effectiveness, as the installation of the massive PV panels that comprise PV systems is showing rapid growth in the market. This paper proposes an implementation method that involves the use of a panel-level wireless PV monitoring module (WPMM), and which assesses the cost-effectiveness of this approach. To maximize the cost-effectiveness, the designed WPMM uses a voltage-divider scheme for voltage metering and a shunt-resistor scheme for current metering. In addition, the proposed method offsets the effect of element errors by extracting calibration parameters. Furthermore, a design method is presented for portable and user-friendly PV monitoring, and demonstration results using a commercial 30-kW PV system are described.

A wireless sensor network (WSN) is designed and implemented for a freeze dryer. Freeze-drying technology is widely used in the fields of pharmacy and biotechnology as well as the food and agriculture industries. Taking into account the demand for high-resolution pressure and temperature measurements in a freeze dryer, the proposed WSN has a significant advantage of creating a monitoring environment in a freeze dryer. The proposed WSN uses a ZigBee/IEEE 802.15.4 network with an altimeter module that contains a high-resolution pressure and temperature sensor with a serial digital data interface. The ZigBee network is suitable for low-energy and low-data-rate applications in the field of wireless communication. The altimeter module is capable of sensing pressure in the range of 7.5-975 Torr (10-1300 mbar) and temperature in the range of $-40^{\circ}C$ to $125^{\circ}C$ with a DC power consumption of $3{\mu}W$. The implemented WSN is installed in a commercial laboratory freeze dryer in order to demonstrate its functionality and efficiency. A comparison with the temperature profile measured by a thermocouple installed in the freeze dryer reveals that the resolution of the temperature profile measured by WSN is superior to that measured by the thermocouple.

Bluetooth wireless technology is a publicly available specification proposed for Radio Frequency (RF) communication for short-range and point-to-multipoint voice and data transfer. It operates in the 2.4GHz ISM(Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band and offers the potential for low-cost, broadband wireless access for various mobile and portable devices at range of about 10 meters. In this paper, we describe the structure and the test results of the bluetooth baseband module we have developed. This module has a UART interface for HCI and a audio codec for voice. The interface between controller and this module supports common control interface. An FPGA implementation of this module is tested for file and bit-stream transfers between PCs.

A new power control algorithm for wireless communication which can be applied to various near distance communications and USN/RFID systems is proposed. This technique has been applied and tested to lithium coin battery operated UHF/microwave transceiver systems to show extremely long communication life time without battery exchange. The power control algorithm is based on the dynamic prediction method of arrival time for incoming packet at the receiver. We obtain 16mA current consumption in the TX module and 20mA current consumption in the RX module. The advantage provided by this method compared to others is that both master transceiver and slave transceiver can be low power consumption system.

In this paper, we have designed the VHDL module of DS/SS QPSK wireless modem processor for digital data communication. The spread spectrum method is used for modern processor, because this method guarantees good frequency efficiency and higher security. Also, it guarantees good performance in digital communication system under multi-path interferences. The differential encoder and decoder are used for simple circuit composition in the signal detection. For the synchronization of receiver, matched filter and power detector are used. And the IF modulation/demodulation of QPSK method is used in the digital level. The transmitter of VHDL modem processor consists of differential encoder, PN code generator, and QPSK ...

In this paper, we show the implementation of the low-cost RF transceiver module for parking control system. Super regenerative receiver scheme was adopted for this module due to its simplicity, low-cost, low power consumption and small number of components to improve reliability of the systems. For improving communication error rate by collision and in-band noise, dual-channel hopping scheme was adopted. Testing prototypes under the environment of simultaneous transmissions, we verified that the designed scheme is able to improve the success rate of data transmission of wireless parking control system cost effectively.

In order to perform photovoltaic (PV) operation and management (O&M) efficiently, individual PV module monitoring is becoming more important. In this research, we developed wireless IoT sensor which can monitor individual photovoltaic modules. This IoT sensor can detect the output voltage, current and module temperature of individual modules and provide monitored data by wireless communication. Measured voltage error was 1.23%, and it shows 16.6 dBM, 0.42sec and 7.1 mA for voltage, transmittance output, response time and mean power consumption, respectively. IoT sensors were demonstrated in the test field with real climate environment condition and each of 5 sensors showed precise results of voltage, current and temperature. Also, sensors were compared with commercial power-optimizers and showed result difference within 5%.

By supporting wireless communication technology, there is gradually expansion of the commercial application for Wireless Local Loop(WLL) technology, which is to replace existing telephone line with wireless one. The WLL system application helps a operator to have merits of the installation and maintenance of line and also a subscriber to make a high speed value-added service. As mentioned above reasons for both sides, many manufactories and operators are concerned with development and application respectively. This paper presents hardware implementation of Radio Port Controller(RPC) and also describes the system configuration, functions, and Inter Processor Communication(IPC) structure of RPC. We performed inter-module communication test via IPC backplane bus. And inter-module integration test also completed through data communication and signal waveform measurement repeatedly.
