Recently, There is increasing interest in the IoT(Internet of Thing) as intelligent information service that enables communication between people and things based on internet. In particular the demand for indoor location-based services with the development of smart devices is rapidly increasing. Using the RSSI signal that is provide to the BLE(Bluetooth Low Energy) for Indoor location information measurement calculates distance information between beacon and mobile terminal. However, simply using the RSSI signal to the distance measurement has a difficult to get the indoor location information due to the influence of the signal interference and the weather. In this paper, by performing an operation for obtaining a reliable distance information from the signal information of iBeacon we propose a system for providing reliable indoor location.

Current surveying and spatial information technology incorporates information and communication technology and is user friendly. However, it is not convenient to use in the field because a connection to a computer, such as a laptop, tablet PC, or desktop PC, is needed to obtain the survey results and the coordinates of the surveyed points. To solve this problem, we developed an app that can display surveyed data on a map and the current survey results through a connection between a total station and smartphone using a Bluetooth wireless communication device. The app allows users to perform field work simultaneously with office work in the field, because it consists of Bluetooth, closed traverse survey, current status survey, and coordinate conversion modules. The proposed app should increase user convenience and the operational capability of the total station in the field.

In this paper, an antenna which has quad band in GSM/DCS/PCS/Bluetooth is proposed. This structure is designed with miniaturization for wide band characteristic based on monopole antenna and log-periodic toothed trapezoid patch antenna which has slots. To achieve multi-bandwidth is used the microstrip line on the substrate. An antenna size is $35mm{\times}20mm$ on FR-4(${\varepsilon}r=4.4$) ground substrate of $35mm{\times}75mm{\times}1mm$ size. And proposed antenna is satisfied with impedance bandwidth(VSWR ${\leq}$ 3). The simulated maximum radiation gain is 1.92 dBi, 3.26 dBi, 3.97 dBi at the center frequency of 0.92 GHz, 1.97 GHz, 2.45 GHz, respectively.

In recent years, internet of things (IoT) technology has developed rapidly and has been applied in many fields. IoT devices collect and analyze information in various environments and provide useful information to users. Due to the recent increase in IoT devices, many open source platforms based on hardware and software that are cheap and easy to use have been developed and provided. In this paper, we have studied the IoT system based on Arduino which can communicate Bluetooth wireless data with smart phone in real time. And we have developed a wireless system control app based on App Invertor 2 for communication with Android smart phone. Also, we propose an IoT system based on Arduino which can control the devices and implement the function of connectivity between devices.

This study found that there are problems in sending mails at the postal service reception desks and proposes a system which transmits address information to POSNET(the terminals at post office reception) without the use of an additional security system based on address information which is stored in the terminals of mobile phones. The system proposed transforms the information of users into two-dimensional barcode(QR code) of the POSNET and a number of address information is texturized and transmitted to the POSNET with the use of how to read QR code and LAN such as bluetooth. When the system proposed is connected to the postal reception system, it can create and output mail addresses for mobile computers automatically and contribute to better performance for the post office reception clerks and better economic results.

Beacon enables one to measure distance indoors based on low-power Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology, while GPS (Global Positioning System) only can be used outdoors. In measuring indoor distance using Beacon, RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication) is considered as the one of the key factors, however, it is influenced by various environmental factors so that it causes the huge gap between the estimated distance and the real. In order to handle this issue, we propose the adaptive ANN (Artificial Neural Network) based approach to measuring the exact distance using Beacon. First, we has carried out the preprocessing of the RSSI signals by applying the extended Kalman filter and the signal stabilization filter into decreasing the noise. Then, we suggest the multi-layered ANNs, each of which layer is learned by specific training data sets. The results showed an average error of 0.67m, a precision of 0.78.

Electromagnetic induction surveys are one of the useful methods to detect the location and buried depth of underground utilities by measuring horizontal and vertical magnetic fields. It can effectively detects single buried utility with the accuracy of within 20 cm. However when another utility is buried near to target one, the accuracy of utility location considerably decreases due to the distortion of magnetic fields caused from adjacent utility. This study shows the ways to verify the location and buried depth of target utility when magnetic fields does not show symmetric distribution due to adjacent another utility. Using Bluetooth wireless communication tools, we developed the way to records measured magnetic fields to handheld PDA. We investigated the criteria for minimum distance of two adjacent utilities to separate the individual responses through field model test.

Recently increasing usage of smartphones makes the Internet of Things (IoT) a leading technology that can collect and share data through sensor networks and wireless communication such as low-power Bluetooth (BLE). BLE-based application can provide operators more precise information on Automatic Door system by remotely diagnosing the system faults through wireless sensor networks and sensors around the Automatic Door. In this paper, a smart device with extended BLE module is implemented which can monitor and Control the system states and faults remotely without on-site diagnostic. while maintaining system integrity so that increase efficiency of time and costs for system management. We can use the results of this research as a basis in evaluating reliability of data between devices, extending communication module in Controller of obsolete Door systems, and establishing centralized monitoring systems in near future with multi-channel Door Controls.

In order to control moving facilities on a remote place effectively, it are required to acquire a environment informations such as images where the moving facilities are placed. However, since there is no tools to acquire such informations to the central control system based on the non-networked sensor environments, it is difficult to control the moving facilities remotely. Therefore, we design and implement the Zigbee based image transmission system and communication protocol to control the moving target remotely. The wireless control utilizing the Zigbee protocol is that electrically consumption is more small than the Bluetooth and reliability of data transmission is better. The implemented Zigbee based control systems and communication protocol have the normal and replay function for a realtime control of the moving target under the server PC and the mobile FDA with the WiFi protocol. The functional operability and performance are analyzed by a designed prototype under the wireless home network environment.
