An optimal matching approach is proposed to maximally ensure the output power uniformity of the cascaded encoder in the passive optical network (PON) monitoring system based on a remote coding scheme. The calculation results show that the optimum arrangement can effectively reduce the difference of the total insertion loss in comparison to the random arrangement (i.e., 0.07 dB vs 2.67 dB in the cascaded encoder with 16 output ports). The proposed approach realizes the optimum configuration for the $1{\times}2$ optical splitters used without adding any extra components. The test results of the fabricated cascaded encoder with 32 output ports prove the feasibility of the proposed approach.

The efficiency and safety of social-overhead capital (SOC) public infrastructures have become an eminent social concern. In this regard, a continuous structural health monitoring has been widely implemented to oversee the robustness of such public infrastructures for the safety of the public. This paper deals with the analysis of a distributed mobility management (DMM) support for wireless sensor network (WSN) based information transmission system. The partial DMM support separates the data and control plane infrastructures, wherein, the control plane is managed by a particular mobility management network entity, while the data plane is distributed by the mobility anchors. The system will be able to optimize the information transmission for a wireless structural health monitoring of SOC public infrastructures specifically designed for bridges, and thus, guarantees the safety of public commuters.

BACnet is an international standard communication protocol especially designed for building automation and control systems. BACnet uses the Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MS/TP) protocol as one of its field-level networks. A BACnet MS/TP field controller prototype and MS/TP network monitoring system are developed in this study. This report introduces the design and implementation methodology of a BACnet MS/TP field controller hardware, firmware and protocol stack. This report also presents the implementation methodology of BACnet MS/TP network monitoring system using VTS (Visual Test Shell). The methodologies introduced in this report will facilitate the develop and implementation of the BACnet-based control systems in building automation area.

The Grid is an infrastructure to connect heterogeneous resources that are scattered over areas with high-speed network and to cooperate with each other. To support Grid applications, network resources should be managed, since the network has to be safe and reliable. The Grid Monitoring Architecture Working Group (GMAWG) of the Global Grid Forum (GGF) proposed an effective architecture to be scalable across wide-area networks and encompass a large number of heterogeneous resources. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of Grid network monitoring system based on the GMA for practical network management. By this system, network operations center can form a management system flexibly and scalably for Grid network.

This paper relates to a technology for monitoring a liquefied gas storage tank in the special gas field where demand is increasing owing to the continuous growth of related fields such as the semiconductor, display, and ICT convergence electronics industries. We have proposed a system for real - time monitoring using wireless sensor network technology, and implemented a system consisting of a sensor unit, transmitter module, and receiver module to be attached to a liquefied gas storage tank. The system was applied to LCO2 tanks among various liquefied gas storage tanks to verify the feasibility. The storage tanks employed in the experiments has capacities of 16,179 l and was 1,920 mm in inner diameter. Furthermore, the density was 1.03 g/l. The measured data were compared with reference data on the remaining gas level versus the $CO_2$ height of the surface, expressed using a conventional water meter, provided by an existing storage tank supplier. The experimental results show that the data is similar to the standard data provided by the tank supplier, and has a high accuracy and reliability within an error range of 0.03%.

In this paper, we describe the intrabed network in a patient monitoring system we developed The intrabed network handles data communication between the main unit of a bedside patient monitor and parameter modules plugged in it. We designed the intrabed network based on RS-485 and HDLC protocol with 1 Mbps data rate. Message exchanges are implemented based on three data structures of packet frame. and stream. We present the specification and the performance of the data communication network for the developed patient monitor.

The demand of remote control and monitoring for efficiency and applications of LED streetlight is increasing continuously because the demand of LED streetlight was increase last few years. Existing street light remote control system is wired using a power line network. The wireless connection exists, but due to its low data transmission rate, it cannot support specialized applications. It can only support simple control and monitoring. In this paper, we propose a system that uses a IEEE 802.11s wireless mesh network based on WLAN, as a backbone network for remote control and monitoring of the LED street lights along with other specialized applications. Using the wireless mesh network for remote control and monitoring the LED street lights, the same can be used to act like a public Wi-Fi access point. We have designed Wi-Fi integrated LED streetlight controller and implemented our system. We evaluated the performance of our system on a real test bed. Our proposed system is expected to perform the role of a U-city infrastructure by utilizing the wireless mesh network.

Web-based virtual machine/manufacturing system (VMS) utilizes Virtual Device Network (VDN.) VDN inevitably involves the implementation of Distributed Monitoring and Control Networks (DMCN). In general, one needs to integrate device (control) network and IP network to realize DMCN over IP network or internet, which can be viewed as a VDN. In this study, LonWorks networking technology is used for device network and the transmission characteristics of LonWorks/IP-based VDN is investigated. A method to minimize the transmission delay in the LonWorks/IP networks is also suggested.

Recently amount of traffic into the network rapidly increase since multimedia streaming services is generally adopted for application. In addition, various network management systems have been suggested for providing a stable service and QoS guarantee. It is necessary for such systems to have QoS monitoring module in order to evaluate acceptance or violation of QoS requirements by analogizing a state information of each node within network. In this paper, we suggest a network management system to evaluate QoS level between end-to-end agents and analysis traffics transmitted between them. The proposed system is implemented for the purpose of collecting network traffic information and monitoring of the view. The proposed system makes user easily understand information of QoS parameters such as throughput, delay and jitter by adopting a method of visual and numerical representation. To achieve this, we purportedly generate test packet into network for confirming acceptance or violation of QoS requirements from point of view of multimedia application service.
