This paper proposes a location-based key management scheme in wireless sensor networks, and among the existing location-based key management techniques, we focused on the LDK (Location Dependent Key management). In order to improve the problems occurred by communication interference, we introduced the key revision process and the method of key establishment using grid information. According to the simulation of this scheme, it increased connectivity while decreased compromise ratio than those of the previous LDK, futhermore, we confirmed that a hexagon distribution of AN reduces the network cost.

In wireless sensor networks(WSNs), geographical routing algorithms can enhance the network capacity. However, in real WSNs, it is difficult for each node to know its physical location accurately. Especially, indoor environments contain various obstacles such as concrete wall, furniture which cause non-line-of-sight(NLOS) conditions. To solve the problem, we propose location error compensation algorithm by using two difference topology constructions. First topology is based on mobile node's location which is obtained from anchor nodes. Second topology is based on mutual distance from neighbor nodes. The proposed algorithm efficiently detects and corrects the location errors and significantly enhances the network performance of geographic routing in the presence of location errors.

An intelligent robot with RSSI based indoor location estimation function was designed and implemented. A wireless sensor node was attached to the robot to received the location data from the indoor location estimation function. Spartan III was used as the main control device in the mobile robot. The current location data collected from the indoor location estimation system was transferred to the mobile robot and server through Zigbee/IEEE 802.15.4 wireless communication of the sensor node. Once the location data is received, the sensor node senses the direction of the robot head and directs the robot to move to its destination. Indoor location estimation intelligent robot is able to move efficiently and actively to the user appointed location by implementing the proposed obstacles avoidance algorithm. This system is able to monitor real-time environmental data and location of the robot using PC program. Indoor location estimation intelligent robot also can be controlled by executing the instructions sent from the PC program.

Impulse Radio Ultra Wide Band (IR-UWB) system can be used to wireless position location system because of its unique very short pulse in the order of nanosecond. A few algorithms have been proposed to calculate location of sensors or tags. In this paper, we compare these algorithms and propose 'TDoA with wireless synchronization' as practical solution. Earlier algorithms need special logic to fix the duration to receive and send pulse or assume synchronization with wire. In proposed method, beacons synchronize each other using impulse and nodes can be made simple and cheap. We evaluated the performance and it shows 50% improved accuracy at the error range of 50cm.

The development of IT related technology has made it possible to offer 'Any Time, Any Where, Any Service' to the users and internet-based service became accessible while on the move through wireless internet service. Moreover, the development of various wireless contents has been provided diverse ioy and convenience to life. However, the existing wireless contents had been subordinate to the wireless internet platform because it had not been set up for a standardized environment. Therefore, repeated developments of contents have been causing waste of resource, time and manpower. This paper aims at suggesting WIPI-bases artificial reefs search contents which have become independent from platform by using JAVA. Artificial reefs facilities are a government project for increasing the revenue of fishermen but only few fishermen know the information about the location of artificial reefs and most of them are not aware of the location of these facilities. There(ore this thesis plans to develop WIPI-bases artificial reefs search contents to provide information such as the location, the depth, and the bottom material to anglers and those fishermen who do not know the location of artificial reefs so that the fishermen can have the opportunity to increase their revenue and also the opportunity to catch a big fish for anglers.

In recent years, construction worker safety in construction site is important. Especially, the frequent collapse accidents have happened in tunnels, utility tunnel and underground structure, so that the importance of worker safety is greatly emphasized. It is difficult to communicate with other workers in underground space, using the current cable or wireless communicator. When the accident is occurred, it can't rescue workers. This is the reason that it has a deficiency to find a location of survivor and communicate rescure crew and field workers. In this paper we extract the optimal technical factors of USFSS(Underground Structure Field Support System) based on integrated technique of wireless communication and location awareness. And USFSS developed in this study is suited for bad environment of underground structure construction and able to track 3D position of laborer and communicate mutually.

Geographic routing has been considered as an efficient, simple, and scalable routing protocol for wireless sensor networks since it exploits pure local location information instead of global topology information to route data packets. Geographic routing requires the sources nodes to be aware of the location of sinks. Most existing geographic routing protocols merely assume that source nodes are aware of the locations of sinks. How can source nodes get the locations of sinks was not addressed in detail. In this paper, we propose a sink location service via circle path for geographic routing in wireless sensor networks. In this scheme, a sink sends a Sink Location Announcement (SLA) message along a circle path, and a source node sends a Sink Location Query (SLQ) message along a straight path that certainly passes through the circle path. By this way we can guarantee the SLQ path and SLA path have at least one crossing point. The node located on the crossing point of the two paths informs the source node the sink location. This procedure can correctly work in any irregular profile sensor networks such as network that has holes or irregular shape by some rules. Simulation results show that our protocol is superior to other protocols in terms of energy consumption and control overhead.

The recent Internet is changing from its best-effort service and needs the network structure and traffic engineering, which can support various applications requiring differentiated traffic processing and high quality of service. The extension of the Internet from wired to wireless system generating location-dependent and burst errors make more difficult to support a good service with the existing packet scheduling algorithm. In this paper, we propose a wireless diffserv packet scheduling (WDSPS) algorithm that can provide reliable service in the differentiated wireless internet service network. The proposed scheduling algorithm solves the HOL(head of line) blocking problems of class queue occurred in wireless network, supports the differentiated service for each class which is defined in differentiated service networks and makes possible the gradual and efficient service compensation not only among classes but also among flows to prevent the monopoly of one class or one flow. Through simulations, we show that our proposed WDSPS scheduling algorithm can provide the required QoS differentiation between classes and enhance the service throughput in various wireless network conditions.
