For smart structure technologies, the interests in wireless sensor networks for structural health monitoring are growing. The wireless sensor networks reduce the installation of the wire embedded in the whole structure and save the costs. But the wireless sensor networks have lots of limits and there are lots of researches and developments of wireless sensor and the network for data process. Most of the researches of wireless sensor network is applying to the civil engineering structure and the researches for the highrise building are required. And strain-based SHM gives the local damage information of the structures which acceleration-based SHM can not. In this paper, concept of wireless sensor network for structural health monitoring of highrise building is suggested. And verifying the feasibility of the strain-based SHM a strain sensor board has developed and tested by experiments.

This paper presents an energy-efficient and bandwidth-efficient 2-1-1 relaying scheme in which a sensor node(SN) assists two others in their data transmission to a clusterhead in WSNs(Wireless Sensor Networks) using LEACH (Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy). We derive the closed-form BER expression of this scheme which is also a general BER one for the decode-and-forward cooperative protocol and prove that the proposed scheme performs the same as the conventional relaying scheme but obtains higher channel utilization efficiency. A variety of numerical results reveal the relaying can save the network energy up to 11 dB over single-hop transmission at BER of $10^{-3}$.

In this paper, the Location Compensation Mechanism using equivalent distance rate ($LCM_{edr}$) for localization system based on SDS-TWR (Symmetric Double-Sided Two-Way Ranging) in wireless sensor network is proposed. The performance of the mechanism is experimented in terms of two types of the localization tracking scenarios of indoor and outdoor environments in university campus. From the experimentations, the compensation ratio in the $LCM_{edr}$ is better than that in SDS-TWR about 90% in indoor/outdoor environments in scenario 1 but also is better than that of SDS-TWR about 91.7% in indoor environment and about 100% in outdoor environment in scenario 2 respectively.

In this paper, I propose a new energy efficient clustering scheme to prolong the network lifetime by reducing energy consumption at the sensor node. It is possible that a node determines whether to participate in clustering with certain probability based on local density. This scheme is useful under the environment that sensor nodes are deployed unevenly within the sensing area. By adjusting the probability of participating in clustering dynamically with local density of nodes, the energy consumption of the network is reduced. So, the lifetime of the network is extended. In the region where nodes are densely deployed, it is possible to reduce the energy consumption of the network by limiting the number of node which is participated in clustering with probability which can be adjusted dynamically based on local density of the node. Through computer simulation, it is verified that the proposed scheme is more energy efficient than LEACH protocol under the environment where node are densely located in a specific area.

This paper proposes a reliable 2-mode authentication framework for probabilistic key pre-distribution in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) that guarantees the safe defense against different kinds of attacks: Hello flood attacks, Wormhole attacks, Sinkhole attack, location deployment attacks, and Man in the middle attack. The mechanism storing the trust neighbor IDs reduces the dependence on the cluster head and as the result; it saves the power energy for the authentication process as well as provides peer-to-peer communication.

The Wireless sensor networks (WSN) continuously generates large volumes of raw data which own natural heterogeneity. These networks are normally application specific with no sharing or reusability of sensor data among applications. In order for applications and services to be developed independently of particular network, sensor data need to be available in more standardized form. In this paper, we propose Architecture for Sensory data management. This Extensible Markup Language (XML) oriented architecture allows the sensor data to be understood and processed in a meaningful way by a variety of applications with different purposes. We developed a middle layer which performs transformation on raw sensory data to XML and vice versa.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are formed by a great quantity of sensor nodes, which are consisted of battery-powered and some tiny devices. In WSN, both efficient energy management and Quality of Service (QoS) are important issues for some applications. Real-time services are usually employed to satisfy QoS requirements in critical environment. This paper proposes a real-time MAC (Medium Access Control) protocol with extended backoff scheme for wireless sensor networks. The basic idea of the proposed protocol employs (m,k)-firm constraint scheduling which is to adjust the contention window (CW) around the optimal value for decreasing the dynamic failure and reducing collisions DBP (Distant Based Priority). In the proposed protocol, the scheduling algorithm dynamically assigns uniform transmitting opportunities to each node. Numerical results reveal the effect of the proposed backoff mechanism.

본 연구에서는 집이나 사무실과 같은 일상 공간에서 발생할 수 있는 연간의 일상생활행위 (ADL: Activities of Daily Living) 들을 인지하는 분산 모델을 제시한다. 사용자의 환경 정보, 위치 정보 및 행위 정보를 간단한 센서들이 부착된 가정용 기기들과 가구, 식기들을 통해 무선 센서 네트워크를 통해 수집하며 분석한다. 하지만 이와 같은 다양한 기기의 활용과 충분히 분석되어지지 않은 데이터들은 본 논문에서 제시하는 일상 환경에서 고차원의 ADL 모델을 구축하기 어렵게 한다. 그러나 ADL들이 생성하는 센서 데이터들과 센서 데이터들의 순서들은 어떤 행위가, 이루어지고 있는지 인지할 수 있도록 도와준다. 따라서 이 센서 데이터들의 순서를 특정 행위 패턴을 분석하는 데 활용하고, 이를 통해 분산 선형 시간 추론 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 알고리즘은 센서 네트워크와 같은 소규모 시스템에서 행위를 인지하는 데 적절하다.

In the wireless sensor network (WSN) environment, the approximate point-in-triangulation (APIT) is a kind of range-free localization algorithm. This algorithm provides high precision, however, the coverage rate is somewhat poor. In this paper, we propose an improved APIT algorithm for the localization of swarm robots, which is based on the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) and the center of gravity (COG) methods.

Idle listening is very critical source of energy dissipation in wireless sensor networks. To reduce idle listening, we propose preamble sampling MAC that is named EESP-MAC. The main idea of EESP-MAC is to add control information into the short preamble frame. So the stream of short preambles is used not only for preamble sampling but also for avoiding overhearing, decreasing control packet overhead and reducing the listening of the redundant message, caused by message-flooding.
