As part of the SOC digitization for smart water management and flood prevention, the government reported that automatic and remote control system for drainage facilities (180 billion won) to 57% of national rivers and established a real-time monitoring system (30 billion won). In addition, they were also planning to establish a smart dam safety management system (15 billion won) based on big data at 11 regions. Therefore, research is needed for smart water management and flood prevention system that can accurately calculate the flow rate through real-time flow rate measurement of rivers. In particular, the most important thing to improve the system implementation and accuracy is to ensure the accuracy of real-time flow rate measurements. To this end, radar sensors for measuring the flow rate of electromagnetic waves in the United States and Europe have been introduced and applied to the system in Korea, but demand for improvement of the system continues due to high price range and performance. Consequently, we would like to propose an improved flow rate measurement and flood forecast system by developing a radar sensor for measuring the electromagnetic surface current meter for real-time flow rate measurement.

오늘날 시장에 유통되는 버섯은 대부분 환경이 조절되는 시설 내부에서 재배된다. 버섯은 다른 식물과 달리 버섯의 종류, 품종 등에 따라 요구되는 환경이 매우 다르다. 특히 대부분의 버섯은 버섯이 생육되는 공간의 온도, 수분, 이산화탄소, 조도 등의 관리가 필수적이다. 버섯의 단위면적당 생산량을 극대화하기 위해서는 이들 버섯이 필요로 하는 환경을 버섯의 생육특성에 따라 적합하게 유지해 주어야만 한다. 현재 대부분의 버섯재배사에는 이들 환경을 컨트롤하는 장치가 설치되어 있고, 이들 시스템의 환경 설정은 농업인이 현장에서 버섯의 상태를 확인 한 후 그때그때 경험에 의해 채득한 정보를 기반으로 환경설정을 하고 있는 실정이다. 이렇다 보니 버섯을 재배하는 기간에는 농업인이 재배사 내부의 환경을 관리하기 위해서 항상 버섯재배사에 머물러야 하고, 재배사의 환경관리 때문에 원거리 또는 장기 출타가 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 사람이 버섯재배 현장에서 컨트롤하던 환경관리를 원격에서 컴퓨터 또는 모바일로 구현할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하였다. 시스템에서 모니터링 및 제어하는 환경은 온도, 습도, 이산화탄소, 배기팬 및 입기팬의 가동 등 버섯재배 환경관리에 필요한 모든 요소를 모니터링 및 관리할 수 있도록 하였다. 이들 관리 요소는 인터넷이 연결된 컴퓨터에 접속하여 버섯재배사의 환경을 실시간으로 모니터링 하고 필요에 따라 제어를 할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 컴퓨터에서 볼 수 있는 환경을 스마트폰을 통해서도 볼 수 있고 또한 제어할 수 있도록 하였다. 그리고 버섯배지를 입상 한 후부터 수확시기까지의 관리 환경을 데이터베이스로 만들어 농민이 버섯배지를 입상하고 데이터베이스와 연동한 제어가 되도록 설정하면 버섯재배사 내부의 환경은 데이터베이스의 정보를 읽어 들여 버섯의 생육단계에 따라 자동으로 내부환경이 제어되도록 하였다. 또한 농업인이 원격에서 버섯재배사 내부 버섯의 생육상황을 모니터링 할 수 있도록 재배사 상부에 CCD 카메라를 달아 실시간으로 버섯의 생육상활을 모니터링 할 수 있도록 구성하였다. 이와 같은 시스템을 사용하면 버섯재배 경험이 없는 농업인도 경험자와 같은 재배관리가 가능하고 원격에서 재배사 내부환경을 모니터링하고 제어 할 수 있기 때문에 농업인이 재배사에 매여 있지않아도 될 것으로 판단된다.

Unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV) can acquire images with lower cost than conventional manned aircraft and commercial satellites. It has the advantage of acquiring high-resolution aerial images covering in the field area more than 50 ha. The purposes of this study is to develop the rice grain yield distribution using UAV. In order to develop a technology for estimating the rice yield using UAV images, time series UAV aerial images were taken at the paddy fields and the data were compared with the rice yield of the harvesting area for two rice varieties(Singdongjin, Dongjinchal). Correlations between the vegetation indices and rice yield were ranged from 0.8 to 0.95 in booting period. Accordingly, rice yield was estimated using UAV-derived vegetation indices($R^2=0.70$ in Sindongjin, $R^2=0.92$ in Donjinchal). It means that the rice yield estimation using UAV imagery can provide less cost and higher accuracy than other methods using combine with yield monitoring system and satellite imagery. In the future, it will be necessary to study a variety of information convergence and integration systems such as image, weather, and soil for efficient use of these information, along with research on preparing management practice work standards such as pest control and nutrient use based on UAV image information.

The main objective of the research is a feasibility study on the intertidal zone using a X-band radar satellite, TerraSAR-X. The TerraSAR-X data have been acquired in the west coast of Korea where large tidal flats, Ganghwa and Yeongjong tidal flats, are developed. Investigations include: 1) waterline and backscattering characteristics of the high resolution X-band images in tidal flats; 2) polarimetric signature of halophytes (or salt marsh plants), specifically Suaeda japonica; and 3) phase and coherence of interferometric pairs. Waterlines from TerraSAR-X data satisfy the requirement of horizontal accuracy of 60 m that corresponds to 20 cm in average height difference while current other spaceborne SAR systems could not meet the requirement. HH-polarization was the best for extraction of waterline, and its geometric position is reliable due to the short wavelength and accurate orbit control of the TerraSAR-X. A halophyte or salt marsh plant, Suaeda japonica, is an indicator of local sea level change. From X-band ground radar measurements, a dual polarization of VV/VH-pol. is anticipated to be the best for detection of the plant with about 9 dB difference at 35 degree incidence angle. However, TerraSAR-X HH/TV dual polarization was turned to be more effective for salt marsh monitoring. The HH-HV value was the maximum of about 7.9 dB at 31.6 degree incidence angle, which is fairly consistent with the results of X-band ground radar measurement. The boundary of salt marsh is effectively traceable specifically by TerraSAR-X cross-polarization data. While interferometric phase is not coherent within normal tidal flat, areas of salt marsh where the landization is preceded show coherent interferometric phases regardless of seasons or tide conditions. Although TerraSAR-X interferometry may not be effective to directly measure height or changes in tidal flat surface, TanDEM-X or other future X-band SAR tandem missions within one-day interval would be useful for mapping tidal flat topography.

There is a vast field of application for RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) technology. In the case of hospitals, RFID can be used for organizing patient data. Generally, patient data has been handled with medical cards. In order to look up data about a patient, the medical card would have to be found first, within a lot of other medical cards, by hand or with a computer. This is a very inconvenient system. Also, if the card is searched by the name of the patient, fatal medical accidents may occur in cases of mix-ups. If remote RFID Tag monitoring systems are applied in this case, the patient data would be accessible in the hospital. This article will discuss the grafting of RFID systems and wireless data communicating technology. The EM4095 chip, which uses 125KHz carrier waves was used in this study. And a Bluetooth module was added for wireless data communication. The ATMEGA128 microcomputer was used to control the RFID system and wireless module. A LCD monitor was connected to the extension port for nurses to view patient data, and also, the same information was displayed on PC monitors for doctors to see. The circuit was designed to consume minimal amounts of electricity for portability, and to transmit Tag ID's in environments with a lot of noise. The article is concluded with a diagram of the whole system, and performance of each data transmitting section has been analyzed.

In this study, a cold well and a warm one with the distance of 100 m were installed in the alluvial aquifer. Groundwater used as the heat and the cold source of heat pump was designed to flow into the warm and the cold well with a diameter of 200 mm. In order to increase the heat and cold storage in aquifer, six auxiliary wells with the diameter of 50 mm and the depth of 30 m were installed at an interval of 5 m from the main well. Also, heat pump 50 RT, the thermal tank $40m^3$, and a remote control and monitoring system were installed in three single-span greenhouses ($2,100m^2$) for growing tomato in Buyeo, Chungcheongnam-do. According to the aquifer heat storage test which had been conducted from Aug. 31 to Sep. 22, 2016, warm water of $850m^3$ was found to flow into warm well. The temperature of the injected water was $30^{\circ}C$ (intake temperature : $15^{\circ}C$), and the heat of 12.8 Gcal was stored. The greenhouse heating test in winter had been conducted from Nov. 21, 2016 to Apr. 30, 2017. On Nov. 21, 2016 when heating greenhouse started, the aquifer temperature of the warm well was $18.5^{\circ}C$. The COP for heating with water source at $18.5^{\circ}C$ was 3.8. The intake water temperature of warm well was gradually lowered to the temperature of $15^{\circ}C$ on Jan. 2, 2017 and the heat pump COP was measured to be 3.2 at that time. As a result, the heat pump COP was improved by 18 %. and retrieval heat was 8 Gcal, the retrieval rate of heat stored in aquifer was estimated at 63 %.
