Wireless sensor networks consist of a large number of tiny sensor nodes which have limited battery life. In order to maximize the network life span, we propose an optimal transmission radius, R, for control messages. We analyze the transmission radius as a function of the energy consumption of cluster head nodes and the energy consumption of member nodes to find the optimal value of R. In simulations we apply our proposed optimization of transmission range to LEACH-based single-hop and multi-hop networks to show that our proposed scheme outperforms other existing routing algorithms in terms of network life span.

The increase in the Internet and smart device users requires high-level network security. Network security consists of Web Firewall, Network Firewall, IPS, DDoS system, UTM (Unified Treat Management), VPN, NAC (Network Access Control), Wireless security, Mobile security, and Virtualization. Most network security solutions running on IPv4, and IPv6 network services are not sufficiently ready. Therefore, in this paper, this study designed and implemented important functions of Network Access Control (NAC), which include IPv6 host detection, isolation, blocking and domain assignment for the IPv6 network. In particular, domain assignment function makes 128 bits IPv6 address management easy. This system was implemented on a KISA IPv6 test-bed using well known devices. Finally, the test result showed that all IPv6 based wired and wireless devices were well-controlled (detection, blocking, isolation and domain assignment).

Railroad bridges account for 25% of the entire high-speed rail network. Railway bridges are subject to gradual structural degradation or fatigue accumulation due to consistent and repeating excitation by fast moving trains. Wireless sensing technology has opened up a new avenue for bridge health monitoring owing to its low-cost, high fidelity, and multiple sensing capability. On the other hand, measuring the transient response during train passage is quite challenging that the current wireless sensor system cannot be applied due to the intrinsic time delay of the sensor network. Therefore, this paper presents a framework for monitoring such transient responses with wireless sensing systems using 1) real-time excessive vibration monitoring through ultra-low-power MEMS accelerometers, and 2) post-event time synchronization scheme. The ultra-low power accelerometer continuously monitors the vibration and trigger network when excessive vibrations are detected. The entire network of wireless smart sensors starts sensing through triggering and the post-event time synchronization is conducted to compensate for the time error on the measured responses. The results of this study highlight the potential of detecting the impact load and triggering the entire network, as well as the effectiveness of the post-event time synchronized scheme for compensating for the time error. A numerical and experimental study was carried out to validate the proposed sensing hardware and time synchronization method.

Recently, RFID/USN is one of fundamental technologies in information and communications networks. Low-Rate WPAN, IEEE802.15.4 is a low-cost communication network that allows wireless connectivity in applications with limited Power and relaxed throughput requirements. Its applications are building automation, personal healthcare, industrial control, consumer electronics, and so on. Some applications require location information. Of course location awareness is useful to improve usability of data Low-Rate WPAN Is regarded as a key specification of the sensor network with the characteristics of wireless communication, computing, energy scavenging, self-networking, and etc. Unfortunately ZigBee alliance propose a lot of applications based on location aware technologies, but the specification and low-rate WPAN devices don't support anything about location-based services. RSSI ( Received Signal Strength indication) is for energy detection to associate, channel selection, and etc. RSSI is used to find the location of a potable device in WLAN. In this paper we studied indoor location awareness using vector matching of RSSI in low-Rate wireless PAN. We analyzed the characteristics of RSSI according to distance and experimented location awareness. We implemented sensor nodes with different shapes and configured the sensor network for the location awareness with 4 fixed nodes and a mobile node. We try to contribute developing location awareness method using RSSI in 3-dimension space.

The acoustic cleaning system is widely used to remove foreign materials in factories, such as thermal power plants and incinerators. However, the acoustic cleaning systems tend to be clogged by foreign materials. In this paper, we develop a wireless sensor network for the sound wave detection in order to monitor proper operations in the acoustic cleaning systems. We observe that the developed wireless sensor network for the wave detection shows a stable operation in various industrial environments of wide temperature ranges. We also develop a data gathering device, which displays the current status of the sound generator and several values detected from the wireless sensor.

Ad-hoc is the wireless network and consists of moving Hosts in environments which don't have a network-based Frame. Because ad-hoc is considered as broadcast network and network which has useful benefits, multicast muting protocols have been studied on ad-hoc network For this work we scrutinized ad-hoc and multicast routing protocols presented in previous works. And we presents a protocol for Ad-hoc network.

In an intelligent automated manufacturing environment, an administrator may use M2M (Machine-to-Machine) communication to recognize machine movement and the environment, as well as to respond to any potential dangers. However, commonly used wireless protocols for this purpose such WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network), ZigBee, and Bluetooth use the same ISM (Industrial Science Medical) band, and this may cause frequency interference among different devices. Moreover, an administrator is frequently exposed to dangerous conditions as a result of being surrounded by densely distributed moving machines. To address this issue, we propose in this paper to employ a location-based frequency interference management using fingerprinting scheme in industrial environments and its advanced localization schemes based on k-NN (Nearest Neighbor) algorithms. Simulation results indicate that the proposed schemes reduce distance error, frequency interference, and any potential danger may be responded immediately by continuous tracing of the locations.
