실내 무선 측위 시스템(IPS : Indoor Positioning System) 중 Wifi 신호를 활용하는 방식의 대부분은 측위를 수행하기 이전에 AP의 mac 정보와 수신세기를 수집 하여 radio map을 구축하고 이후 측위 과정에서 수집되는 AP의 정보와 비교하여 위치를 판단한다. 이 방식은 신호 세기의 변화가 없을 경우 실내에서 매우 높은 정확도로 측위를 수행할 수 있다. 그러나 현실세계에서는 구축된 radio map의 신호에 심각한 영향을 줄 수 있는 여러 가지 상황이 존재한다. 대표적으로 채널 간섭 현상을 둘 수 있다. radio map으로 구축되어 있는 AP의 신호 영역 내에 동일 채널 및 인접 채널을 가지는 AP 및 테더링 기기 등이 신규로 설치될 경우 기존 radio map 신호에 영향을 주어 측위 과정에서 정확도가 떨어지는 문제점이 발생하다. 본 논문에서는 앞서 언급한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 AP의 특성 정보를 다중 그리드 Radio map으로 구성하는 방안을 연구하였다. 이 다중 그리드 Radio map을 통해 측위 단계에서 수집된 AP 신호를 더욱 정확하게 분석하고 신호 변동에 능동적으로 대처할 수 있도록 구성하여 기존의 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 방안에 대하여 제안한다.

본 논문은 ZigBee 기술을 이용하여 실내 위치 인식 알고리즘을 설계하고 구현하였다. ZigBee의 가장 큰 장점은 RFID, 적외선, 초음파 기술 등과 비교하여 저전력으로 오랜 시간 동안 사용할 수 있으면서도 가격이 저렴하다는 것이다. 본 논문은 ZigBee를 이용한 위치 인식 기술에 RSSI와 삼각 측량법, 그리고 다수의 데이터에서 정확한 RSSI값을 선택하는 알고리즘을 설계하였고, 위치 인식의 정확도를 높이는데 초점을 두었다. RSSI값을 미리 실측하여 Curve Fitting을 이용하여 각각의 고정 AP마다 RSSI와 거리의 관계식을 산출하여 위치 계산에 사용하였다. 또한 실제 위치 인식 시스템을 기존의 삼각 측량법만을 사용하는 방법과 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법을 각각 구현하였다. 또한 모의실험을 통해 실제 모바일 노드의 위치와 측정된 위치의 오차율을 비교하여 성능을 측정하였다. 모의실험을 통해 성능을 비교하여 모바일 노드의 위치 인식 오차율을 줄이고, 정확도를 향상하였다.

위치정보를 이용한 서비스가 요구가 증가함에 따라, 실외를 중심으로 이뤄지던 위치정보서비스는 실내를 중심으로 요구되고 있다. 더불어 좀더 정확한 실내측위 시스템에 대한 필요성도 증가되고 있다. 최근의 위치 정보 서비스는 스마트폰의 보급과 함께 모바일 기기의 환경이 이용되고 있다. 본 논문은 스마트 디바이스 기반으로 WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network)과 DATABASE 를 이용한 Fingerprinting 방식을 제안한다. 또한 기존의 Fingerprinting 방식에 스마트 디바이스에 내장된 Gyroscope sensor 를 이용하여 모바일 환경에서 일부 영역에서 발생할 수 있는 신호의 오차를 보정하는 새로운 방법도 제시한다. 실제 테스트 환경을 구축하여 실험한 결과도 제시하였다.

This paper researches the estimating location using repeater effect adjustment method in CDMA based system. Repeaters are commonly used by commercial and amateur radio operators to extend signals in the radio frequency range from one receiver to another. The repeater signals are increasing arrival time from base station to mobile station. So if we calculates the mobile station using repeater signals, the estimating position error is increased. However nobody researched about adjusting repeater effects. This paper proposes repeater effect adjustment algorithm. For adjusting repeater effects, we make the triangle using mobile station, reference base station and neighbor base station, and then detect the repeater effects using the triangle characteristic. The proposed method system showed the improved performance in estimating parameters and locating positions by computer simulations.

Recently, there are various researches using inaudible high frequencies like as wireless communication based smart devices, data transmission algorithm, indoor positioning trace technologies. However, when they use high frequencies of inaudible range, they have a problem that the accuracy of data transmission with high frequencies was low because of interference from ambient noise in our real life. To solve this problem, in this paper, we proposed an application based on smart phone and server system for collection of ambient noise and detection of robust high frequency range. The server system could detect the robust high frequency range from statistical analysis of collected noise and the robust high frequency could avoid interference from ambient noise. We tested the proposed application's ability to gather noise and high frequencies for a certain period of time to evaluate performance. According to the testing results, we confirmed that the proposed application and server system could detect a robust high-frequency range via noise analysis in real life. Therefore, the proposed application and server could be a useful technology for future research on inaudible high frequencies.

Concerns and demands for the Location Based Services (LBS) using Global Positioning System (GPS) and Wi-Fi are largely increased in the world in the present. In some experimental results, it was noted that many errors are frequently occurred when the distances between an anchor node and a mobile node acre measured in indoor localization environment of Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN). In this paper, localization compensation algorithm based on maximum measurement value ($LCA_{MMV}$) for moving objects in WPAN is proposed, and the performance of the algorithm is analyzed by experiments on three scenarios for movement of mobile nodes. From the experiments, it was confirmed that the average localization accuracy of suggested algorithm was more increased than Symmetric Double-Sided Two-Way Ranging (SDS-TWR) and triangulation as average 40.9cm, 77.6cm and 6.3cm, respectively on scenario 1-3.

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.

This paper aims to realize the location tracking system using the Zigbee in the wireless sensor network. The wireless sensor network offers the user-oriented location tracking service in the ubiquitous environment. The location tracking service can track the location of an object or a person and provides it. The location tracking system realized in this paper can be used inside or outside without any black-out areas to measure the location of the moving nodes. In tracking inside the RSSI signals use and in tracking outside will connect with the GPS signals to track the location. Also, by using Zigbee, the wireless sensor network environment was established and by obtaining the location of the moving nodes, the real-time tracking is possible.

In this paper, we propose an intelligent marketing service system that can provide custom advertisements and events to both businesses and customers by identifying the location and contents using the ultrasonic signals and feature information in voice signals. We also develop the encoding and decoding algorithm of ultrasonic signals for this system and analyze the performance evaluation results. With the development of the hyper-connected society, the on-line marketing has been activated and is growing in size. Existing store marketing applications have disadvantages that customers have to find out events or promotional materials that the headquarters or stores throughusing the corresponding applications whenever they visit them. To solve these problems, there are attempts to create intelligent marketing tools using GPS technology and voice recognition technology. However, this approach has difficulties in technology development due to accuracy of location and speed of comparison and retrieval of voice recognition technology, and marketing services for customer relation are also much simplified.

In this paper, we have proposed a tapered slot antenna for IR-UWB communication system suitable of indoor positioning in the building. The designed tapered slot antenna is designed using Ansys Inc. HFSS and its standing wave ratio, return loss, and radiation pattern is analyzed. In 2.36 GHz ~ 5.51 GHz and, the designed antenna shows satisfactory return loss at -10 dB and meets the requirement of $VSWR{\leq}2$. The presented designed showed a higher sensitivity for the end-fire propagation characteristics in a specific direction across all bands of the radiation pattern.
