본 논문에서는 주파수 도약 시스댐의 성능을 좌우하는 동기화 시스템에서 초기동기시스템으로는 stepped s serial search 방식과 정합필터방식에 대한 성능을 고찰하였으며 동기추적 시스템으로 delay lock loop 방식을 이동무선채널에 적용하여 그 성능을 해석하였다. 그 결과 Rayleigh 페이딩 뿐만 아니라 Rician 페이딩이 존재 하는 이동무선채널에서 stepped serial search 방식이 회로구성이 비교적 간단하고 특별한 하드웨어의 교체없이 단순히 도약 주파수를 증가시킴으로써 시스템의 성능을 개선할 수 있음을 보였다. 또한 동기추적 시스템 역시 lock 상태수와 도약주파수 M이 증가할수록 평균 유지시간이 길어짐을 알 수 있다.

USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network) 환경은 언제, 어디서나 정보를 이용할 수 있게 한다. 이러한 환경의 기반이 되는 기술은 타겟의 정확한 위치설정을 전제로 한다. 특히 ITS(Intelligent Transportation Systems)는 USN 기술을 적용함으로써 쉽게 구축 될 수 있다. 위치측정은 Range-based 방식과 Range-free 방식으로 나눌 수 있다. Range-based 방식은 전파의 불규칙하고 추가 장비가 필요로 센서네트워크기반 위치측정에 적합하지 않은 것으로 알려져 있다. 반면에 Range-free 방식은 능동적인 통신을 수단으로 위치를 측정하므로 자원제약적인 센서네트워크에서는 적합한 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 Range-free 방식은 일반적으로 정확성이 부족하며, 특히 밀집도가 낮은 환경에서는 정확성이 매우 낮다. 따라서 이 두 기법은 장단점을 가지고 있다. 그러므로 두 기법을 혼합하여 위치추적의 정확성을 개선할 수 있는 새로운 기법이 요구된다. 본 논문은 Range-free 방식을 개선할 수 있도록 추가 장비가 요구되지 않은 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indication) 신호 값을 분류하고 주변노드의 위치와 통신범위 및 세기정보를 최대한 활용하여 이동차량을 보다 정확하게 추적할 수 있는 Range-hybrid 기반의 위치추적기법을 제시한다. 추가적으로 예측기법을 활용하여 위치추적의 정확성을 획기적으로 개선할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다. 그리고 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안된 기법이 기존 위치추적 알고리즘 보다 교통 환경에서 위치추적의 정확도가 우수함을 증명하였다.

Improvements in wireless sensor network (WSN) technology have resulted in a large number of applications. WSNs have been mainly used for monitoring applications, but they are also applicable to target tracking, health care, and monitoring with multimedia data. Nodes are generally deployed in environments where the exhausted batteries of sensor nodes are difficult to charge or replace. The primary goal of communication protocols in WSNs is to maximize energy efficiency in order to prolong network lifetime. In this paper, various medium access control (MAC) protocols for synchronous/asynchronous and single/multi-channel WSNs are investigated. Single-channel MAC protocols are categorized into synchronous and asynchronous approaches, and the advantages and disadvantages of each protocol are presented. The different features required in multi-channel WSNs compared to single-channel WSNs are also investigated, and surveys on multi-channel MAC protocols proposed for WSNs are provided. Then, existing broadcast schemes in such MAC protocols and efficient multi-hop broadcast protocols proposed for WSNs are provided. The limitations and challenges in many communication protocols according to this survey are pointed out, which will help future researches on the design of communication protocols for WSNs.

One of the goals in the field of mobile robotics is the development of personal service robots for the elderly which behave in populated environments. In this paper, we describe a security robot system and ongoing research results that minimize the risk of the elderly and the infirm to access an area to enter restricted areas with high potential for falls, such as stairs, steps, and wet floors. The proposed robot system surveys a potential falling area with an equipped laser scanner sensor. When it detects walking in elderly or infirm patients who in restricted areas, the robot calculates the velocity vector, plans its own path to forestall the patient in order to prevent them from heading to the restricted area and starts to move along the estimated trajectory. The walking human is assumed to be a point-object and projected onto a scanning plane to form a geometrical constraint equation that provides position data of the human based on the kinematics of the mobile robot. While moving, the robot continues these processes in order to adapt to the changing situation. After arriving at an opposite position to the human's walking direction, the robot advises them to change course. The simulation and experimental results of estimating and tracking of the human in the wrong direction with the mobile robot are presented.

This paper describes a robust mobile u-healthcare system with multiple physiological signs measurement capability in real time with integration of WSN(wireless sensor network) technology and CDMA(code division multiple access) network. A cellular phone receives health data in WSN and performs local physiological signs analysis at a phone processor, and then transmits abnormal data to server for further detail or precise health signal evaluation by a medical doctor over a CDMA network. Physiological signs of the patients are continuously monitored, processed and analyzed locally at cellular phone process to produce useful medical information for diagnosis and tracking purposes. By local simple analysis in cellular phone processor we can save the data transmission cost in CDMA network. By using the developed integrate ubiquitous healthcare service architecture, patients can realize self-health checking so that the prevention actions can be taken earlier. Appropriate self-monitoring and self-management can cure disease and relieve pain especially for patients who suffer from chronic diseases that need long term observation.

To realize higher track density of HDD, the servo bandwidth should be higher, however, is limited by the mechanical resonances of the arm, coil of the VCM and ball bearing pivot. The dual-stage actuator systems have been suggested as a possible solution. For the dual-stage actuator systems based on the suspension, the suspension resonance frequencies in the radial access direction are important factors to increase a servo bandwidth, however the improvement of these frequencies may affect the shock resistance performance and spring constant. The slider's flying stability can be deteriorated by the change of a vertical stiffness. In this work, we have investigated a suspension design scheme possessing a milliactuator for dual-stage actuator systems and also achieved higher mechanical characteristics. Design parameters are deduced by finite element analysis with sensitivity function. It is confirmed that the proposed suspension with the milliactuator has the capability of fine tracking motion, due to its hinge structure on the spring region, and achieves higher mechanical resonance frequencies in the radial access direction with a high-shock resistance and a low-spring constant.
