In this paper, we proposes a multi-ring based mobile sink location scheme for solar-powered wireless sensor network (WSN). The proposed scheme maintains the multi-rings in which nodes keep the current location of sink node. With the help of nodes in multi-rings, each node can locate the sink node efficiently with low-overhead. Moreover, because our scheme utilizes only surplus energy of a node, it can maintain multiple rings without degrading any performance of each node. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme shows much better latency and scalability with lower energy-consumption than the existing single-ring based scheme.

The accurate calculation of bucket tip position has a large influence on showing the motion of an excavator on the display device of the excavator and controlling the excavator automatically. It is generally known that Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensors are more accurate than accelerometer-based sensors while the boom, arm or bucket moves because additional forces beyond gravity add additional acceleration to the sensors. To prove the accuracy difference between the two types of sensors, a position recognition system using an accelerometer-based sensor and an IMU sensor is implemented on the excavator. The experimental results show that the system using the IMU sensor significantly reduces the position recognition error while bucket moves and additional force beyond gravity exists.

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a powerful technique in data analysis and widely used to detect anomalies in Wireless Sensor Networks. However, the performance of conventional PCA is not high on time-series data collected by sensors. In this paper, we propose a Joint Exponential Smoothing and Trend-based Principal Component Analysis (JES-TBPCA) for Anomaly Detection which is based on conventional PCA. Experimental results on a real dataset show a remarkably higher performance of JES-TBPCA comparing to conventional PCA model in detection of stuck-at and offset anomalies.

본 논문에서는 자세 교정에 도움을 줄 수 있는 압력센서 기반의 스마트 방석 개발 사례를 소개한다. 스마트 방석은 스마트폰과 블루투스로 연결되며 스마트폰 앱은 사용자의 자세 정보를 분석한 후 자세가 불안정한 징후가 판단되면 알림을 통해 바람직한 자세를 취할 수 있도록 안내한다. 본 시제품 개발에서는 압력센서의 값을 분석한 후 단순한 형태의 자세 추정 방식을 채택하였지만 향후 다양한 실험 및 딥러닝 응용을 통해 정확한 자세 추정을 위한 알고리즘을 개발할 계획이며 알림에 의한 수동적 자세 교정이 아닌 기구 설계, 모터 제어 등을 통해 능동적인 자세 교정을 지원하는 스마트 방석을 개발할 계획이다.

In this paper, we present a remote measurement system for the wireless monitoring of ECU Sensor Signals of vehicle. In order to measure the ECU sensor signals, the interface circuit is designed to communicate ECU and designed terminal wirelessly according to the ISO, SAE regulation of communication protocol standard. A micro-controller 80C196KC is used for communicating ECU sensor signals. ECU sensor signals are transmitted to the RF-wireless terminal that was developed using the micro controller 80386EX. LCD, and RF-module. 80386EX software is programmed to monitor the ECU sensor signals using the Borland C++ compiler in which the half duplex method was used for the RS232 communication.

At the same time, the information to fix the vehicle's problem can be shown on the developed monitoring software. The possibility for remote measurement of ECU sensor signals using 80386EX is also verified through the developed systems and algorithms.

Following the successful launch of KOMPSAT-3 in May 2012, KOMPSAT-5 in August 2013, and KOMPSAT-3A in March 2015 have succeeded in launching the integrated operation of optical, radar and thermal infrared sensors in Korea. We have established a foundation to utilize the characteristics of each sensors. In order to overcome limitations in the range of application and accuracy of the application of a single sensor, multi-sensor image fusion techniques have been developed which take advantage of multiple sensors and complement each other. In this paper, we introduce the development of software (InFusion) for multi-sensor image fusion and valued-added product generation using KOMPSAT series. First, we describe the characteristics of each sensor and the necessity of fusion software development, and describe the entire development process. It aims to increase the data utilization of KOMPSAT series and to inform the superiority of domestic software through creation of high value-added products.

Body area networks (BANs) have emerged as an enabling technique for e-healthcare systems, which can be used to continuously and remotely monitor patients' health. In BANs, the data of a patient's vital body functions and movements can be collected by small wearable or implantable sensors and sent using shortrange wireless communication techniques. Due to the shared wireless medium between the sensors in BANs, it may be possible to have malicious attacks on e-healthcare systems. The security and privacy issues of BANs are becoming more and more important. To provide secure and correct association of a group of sensors with a patient and satisfy the requirements of data confidentiality and integrity in BANs, we propose a novel enhanced secure sensor association and key management protocol based on elliptic curve cryptography and hash chains. The authentication procedure and group key generation are very simple and efficient. Therefore, our protocol can be easily implemented in the power and resource constrained sensor nodes in BANs. From a comparison of results, furthermore, we can conclude that the proposed protocol dramatically reduces the computation and communication cost for the authentication and key derivation compared with previous protocols. We believe that our protocol is attractive in the application of BANs.

In Korea, The number of installed LPG Charging stations is about 2000, increasing by 26 every year. In these, about 500 charging stations are older above 15 year, accounting about 25% of total stations. About 86% of them are located in the city, which is causing serious damage if accident occurs. In this paper, we developed a duel gas sensor module and integrated control system software that can prevent and correspondence to gas leaks and fire accidents at LPG/CNG charging stations. The dual type sensor module has the function of collecting and transmitting the measured data to the sensors of methane, butane and hydrogen through RF433Mhz communication. In addition, each sensor is attached with two to improve stability and accuracy. The integrated control system software detects real-time data of the devices measured by the sensors and it send to the PC and smart phone of manager. Therefore, if accident occurs, the manager can check the status of the charging station regardless of time and place.

The reinforcement learning algorithm has proven its potential in solving sequential decision-making problems under uncertainties, such as finding paths to route data packets in wireless sensor networks. With reinforcement learning, the computation of the optimum path requires careful definition of the so-called reward function, which is defined as a linear function that aggregates multiple objective functions into a single objective to compute a numerical value (reward) to be maximized. In a typical defined linear reward function, the multiple objectives to be optimized are integrated in the form of a weighted sum with fixed weighting factors for all learning agents. This study proposes a reinforcement learning -based routing protocol for wireless sensor network, where different learning agents prioritize different objective goals by assigning weighting factors to the aggregated objectives of the reward function. We assign appropriate weighting factors to the objectives in the reward function of a sensor node according to its hop-count distance to the sink node. We expect this approach to enhance the effectiveness of multi-objective reinforcement learning for wireless sensor networks with a balanced trade-off among competing parameters. Furthermore, we propose SDN (Software Defined Networks) architecture with multiple controllers for constant network monitoring to allow learning agents to adapt according to the dynamics of the network conditions. Simulation results show that our proposed scheme enhances the performance of wireless sensor network under varied conditions, such as the node density and traffic intensity, with a good trade-off among competing performance metrics.
