This paper reports the Survey results from a field monitoring study of office occupancy densities. The field measurement of a office in Yongin was carried out from 19 September to 30 September 2011. The survey has an aim to reveal the building energy consumption relationship between occupancy densities of a realistic office and the previous studies. The results showed that hourly occupied density of the previous studies is more higher than a field survey. we investigated the effects of difference occupancy densities on annual heating and cooling energy consumption using EnergyPlus. Heating and cooling consumption was raised because of the increased occupancy density. therefore, accurately measure the occupnacy schedule is important in order to reduce excessive building energy consumption, and is an significant element to be considered in the energy simulation.

In this study, measurement and analysis of energy consumption of a research building have been conducted. The energy audit procedure includes monitoring of electricity and LNG consumption over a period of three yews from 2000 to 2002. Data acquisition system for collecting energy consumption data of HVAC equipment such as chillers, fan filter units, AHUs, cooling towers, boilers, pumps, fan coil units, air compressors and etc. has been installed in a building located in Seoul. Data collected at an interval of 1 minute are analyzed for studying the energy consumption pattern of a research building. Percentage of energy consumption of all HVAC equipment is $51.0\%$ in 2000, $55.4\%$ in 2001, and $62.3\%$ in 2002, respectively. Electricity consumption of chillers accounts for $17.6\%$ of the total energy consumption, which is the largest. Annual energy consumption-rate per unit area is $840.5Mcal/m^2{\cdot}y$ in 2000, $1,064.8Mcal/m^2{\cdot}y$ in 2001, and $1,393.0Mcal/m^2{\cdot}y$ year 2002, respectively.

Fish school monitoring technology is utilized for various purposes, such as boat fishing and resource surveys. With advancements in information and communication technology, this technology has expanded its application to remote areas. Its significance has grown in fishing sites, particularly for improving the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of set-net fishing. Set-net fishing gears are not limited to coastal areas, but are also installed in inland and remote sea regions. Consequently, fishermen require technology that allows them to quickly transmit information about approaching fish schools and enables them to perform long-term monitoring. The development of remote monitoring technology for set-net fish schools must consider crucial design factors such as communication range, transmission speed, power consumption of information modules, and operational expenses. In this study, we developed a low-power remote monitoring module for set-net fish school based on WCDMA. The module was specifically designed to minimize power consumption, allowing for communication over long distances and extended operation times in set-net fishing applications. Furthermore, we developed a web server software application that enables remote access to fish schools and provides real-time weather information. The performance of the developed module was evaluated through set-net fishing site application and experiments with moving ships on the sea. The experimental results demonstrated that the remote monitoring system, consisting of the developed low-power remote monitoring module for set-net fish school based on WCDMA and a fish finder, had an average power consumption of 4.6 W, a maximum communication range of 22.84 km, and a data transmission and reception rate of 98.79%. The maximum fish school information transmission and reception rate was 97.26%

노면 모니터링은 노면의 함몰 정도 및 크랙 감지와 같은 위험 요소 관리를 통해 도로 환경의 안전성을 유지하는 필수적인 과정이다. 고성능 2D 레이저 센서를 탑재한 자율주행 기반 UGV를 활용한 정밀 측정이 가능하지만, 고성능 센서의 에너지 소모량 증가로 인해 배터리 용량에 대한 한계가 있다. 본 논문에서는 UGV에서 효율적인 노면 모니터링을 위한 퓨전 센서 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 퓨전 센서 시스템은 카메라를 통한 칼라 정보와 선레이저 센서를 통한 깊이 정보를 결합하여 노면 모니터링의 정밀한 변위 탐지를 가능하게 한다. 또한 카메라 센서를 이용해 모니터링 대상의 탐지 여부에 따라 선레이저 센서 스캔 주파수를 동적으로 제어하는 동적 샘플링 알고리즘을 적용함으로써 불필요한 에너지 소모를 절감한다. 제안된 퓨전 센서 시스템에서의 평균 소비전력 모델을 제시하고 다양한 미션 환경의 크랙 분포 및 센서 특성을 고려하여 에너지 효율성을 분석한다. 성능 분석 결과, 선레이저 센서의 Active 상태 소비 전력이 Saving 상태의 2배이고, λ=10, µ=10인 환경에서 고정 샘플링 기법에 비해 전력 소비 효율이 13.3% 향상됨을 확인하였다.

Impact detection and health monitoring are very important tasks for civil infrastructures, such as bridges. Piezoceramic based transducers are widely researched for these tasks due to the piezoceramic material's inherent advantages of dual sensing and actuation ability, which enables the active sensing method for structural health monitoring with a network of piezoceramic transducers. Wireless sensor networks, which are easy for deployment, have great potential in health monitoring systems for large civil infrastructures to identify early-age damages. However, most commercial wireless sensor networks are general purpose and may not be optimized for a network of piezoceramic based transducers. Wireless networks of piezoceramic transducers for active sensing have special requirements, such as relatively high sampling rate (at a few-thousand Hz), incorporation of an amplifier for the piezoceramic element for actuation, and low energy consumption for actuation. In this paper, a wireless network is specially designed for piezoceramic transducers to implement impact detection and active sensing for structural health monitoring. A power efficient embedded system is designed to form the wireless sensor network that is capable of high sampling rate. A 32 bit RISC wireless microcontroller is chosen as the main processor. Detailed design of the hardware system and software system of the wireless sensor network is presented in this paper. To verify the functionality of the wireless sensor network, it is deployed on a two-story concrete frame with embedded piezoceramic transducers, and the active sensing property of piezoceramic material is used to detect the damage in the structure. Experimental results show that the wireless sensor network can effectively implement active sensing and impact detection with high sampling rate while maintaining low power consumption by performing offline data processing and minimizing wireless communication.

In this paper, we propose a low-power design strategy to minimize energy-consumption for surveillance and reconnaissance sensor networks. The sensor network consists of many different nodes with various operations such as target detection, packet relay, video monitoring, changing protocols, and etc. Each sensor node consists of sensing, computing, communication, and power components. These components are integrated on a single or multiple boards. Therefore, the power consumption of each component can be different on various operation types. First, we identified the list of components and measured power consumption for them from the first prototype nodes. Next, we focus on which components are the main sources of energy consumption. We propose many energy-efficient approaches to reduce energy consumption for each operation type.

The high-temperature steam pipes of thermal power plants are subjected to severe conditions such as creep and fatigue due to the power plant frequently being started up and shut down. To prevent critical pipes from serious damage and possible failure, inspection methods such as computational analysis and online piping displacement monitoring have been developed. However, these methods are limited in that they cannot determine the life consumption rate of a critical pipe precisely. Therefore, we set out to develop a life assessment system, based on a three-dimensional piping displacement monitoring system, which is capable of evaluating the life consumption rate of a critical pipe. This system was installed at the "M" thermal power plant in Malaysia, and was shown to operate well in practice. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the increase safety of piping systems by minimizing stress and extending the actual life of critical piping.

제한된 배터리를 가지고 있는 내장형 시스템에서 전력을 최소화하여 제한된 전력을 오랫동안 사용하는 기술은 중요한 문제로 인식되어 왔다. 최근 내장형 시스템은 대형 TFT-LCD와 터치스크린을 장착하면서 그에 따른 전력소비가 더 증가하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 GUI에서 전력소모를 감소할 수 있는 방안인 프레임버퍼 모니터링을 연구하였다. 프레임버퍼 모니터링 기법은 화면의 퀄리티(Quality)를 보장하는 범위 내에서 Refresh-rate과 Backlight을 조절하여 LCD에서 전력 소모를 줄이는 방법이다.
