In this paper, satellite communication based video surveillance system that consisted of ultra-small aperture terminals with small-size smart vision sensor is proposed. The events such as forest fire, smoke, intruder movement are detected automatically in field and false alarms are minimized by using intelligent and high-reliable video analysis algorithms. The smart vision sensor is necessary to achieve high-confidence, high hardware endurance, seamless communication and easy maintenance requirements. To satisfy these requirements, real-time digital signal processor, camera module and satellite transceiver are integrated as a smart vision sensor-based ultra-small aperture terminal. Also, high-performance video analysis and image coding algorithms are embedded. The video analysis functions and performances were verified and confirmed practicality through computer simulation and vision sensor prototype test.

Sensor networks are used in various fields such as marine, defense, and smart home etc. Among the components of the sensor network, the sensor node collects sensor data, as one of the representative sensor network roles, and the sensor node makes a greate influence on the overall performance of the sensor network. Therefore, how to design the sensor node is an important issue in the sensor network field. However, the research on the sensor network architecture suitable for the sensor network installation environment has been made more important than the research on how to configure the sensor node. In this paper, we propose to identify elements to be considered for designing a sensor node that makes a large influence on the performance of the sensor network, and to easily implement the sensor node through the state transition model based on these elements.

The core of existing IT industry has been multimedia contents based on internet network. But nowadays, ubiquitous technology which combines sensors and network technology is emerging and is called USN (ubiquitous sensor network). Health care industry is one of suitable areas for USN application. In this paper, sensor network for baby care is proposed. The proposed baby care system consists of bluetooth network to transfer information which comes from various sensors like falling detecting, crying and fever detecting sensor to keep infant's status safe from external-potential threats. The effectiveness of the implemented system is showed through demonstration.

Recently, there has been interests in smart vessel technology, and it needs to consider an intelligent control system for efficient vessel manangement. In a smart vessel, however, it can cause a network overload due to a number of data transmission from a variety of sensor nodes and bridge nodes. In this letter, we propose an data transmission scheme with data fusion to reduce the number of traffic from the sensor nodes. Hence it can decrease network overload for intelligent vessel management.

FRP (Fiber Reinforced Polymer) is an excellent new constructional material in resistibility to corrosion, high intensity, resistibility to fatigue, and plasticity. FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating) sensor is widely used at present as a smart sensor due to lots of advantages such as electric resistance, small-sized material, and high durability. However, with insufficiency of measuring displacement, FBG sensor is used only as a sensor measuring physical properties like strain or temperature. In this study, FRP and FBG sensors are to be hybridized, which could lead to the development of a smart FRP rod. Moreover, developing the estimated model for deflection with neural network method, with the data measured through FBG sensor, could make conquest of a disadvantage of FBG sensor - uniquely used for sensing strain. Artificial neural network is MLP (Multi-layer perceptron), trained within error rate of 0.001. Nonlinear object function and back-propagation algorithm is applied to training and this model is verified with the measured axial displacement through UTM and the estimated numerical values.

In this paper, we propose a strategy to distribute the energy consumption over the network. The proposed strategy is based on geographic routing. We use a smart base station that maintains the residual energy and location information of sensor nodes and selects a head node and an anchor node using this information. A head node gathers and aggregates data from the sensor nodes in a target region that interests the user. An anchor node then transmits the data that was forwarded from the head node back to the smart base station. The smart base station extends network lifetime by selecting an optimal head node and an optimal anchor node. We simulate the proposed protocol and compare it with the LEACH protocol in terms of energy consumption, the number of dead nodes, and a distribution map of dead node locations.

Recently, introduced a cloud computing technology to the IT industry, smart phones, it has become possible connection between mobility terminal such as a tablet PC. For dissemination and popularization of movable wireless terminal, the same operation have focused on a viable mobile cloud in various terminal. Also, it evolved Wireless Sensor Network(WSN) technology, utilizing a Body Sensor Network(BSN), which research is underway to build large Ubiquitous Sensor Network(USN). BSN is based on large-scale sensor networks, it integrates the state information of the patient's body, it has been the need to build a managed system. Also, by transferring the acquired sensor information to HIS(Hospital Information System), there is a need to frequently monitor the condition of the patient. Therefore, In this paper, possible sensor information exchange between terminals in a mobile cloud environment, by integrating the data obtained by the body sensor HIS and interoperable data DBaaS (DataBase as a Service) it will provide a base of mBodyCloud System. Therefore, to provide an integrated protocol to include the sensor data to a standard HL7(Health Level7) medical information data.
