무선 센서 네트워크에서는 고정된 인프라에 의존하기 어려운 환경을 가지고 있다. 하지만, 위치기반 기술을 접목하여 센서의 절대적 또는 상대적인 위치정보를 이용하면 다양한 응용서비스를 효과적으로 적용 할 수 있다. 이러한 센서 노드의 위치를 측정하는 방법 중에 시간을 기반으로 위치를 측정하는 방법이 가장 정확도가 높게 평가되었다[1]. 그러나 이러한 TOA방법은 노드의 Clock Rate에 의존적이기 때문에 위치오차가 발생하게 된다. 따라서 Node의 Clock Drifi를 줄이기 위해서 주기적인 시간동기화가 필요했다[3,4]. 하지만 본 논문에서는 이러한 거리오차를 제거하기 위한 방법으로 시간 비동기화 방법(ALS)을 소개하고, ALS를 기반으로 시뮬레이션과 실질적인 센서를 가지고 노드 사이의 거리와 위치를 측정하였다. 실험 결과, 기존의 TOA방법과 비교하여 거리 및 위치 정확도, Packet 트래픽에 대해서 성능 향상을 확인한다.

본 논문은 ZigBee 기술을 이용하여 실내 위치 인식 알고리즘을 설계하고 구현하였다. ZigBee의 가장 큰 장점은 RFID, 적외선, 초음파 기술 등과 비교하여 저전력으로 오랜 시간 동안 사용할 수 있으면서도 가격이 저렴하다는 것이다. 본 논문은 ZigBee를 이용한 위치 인식 기술에 RSSI와 삼각 측량법, 그리고 다수의 데이터에서 정확한 RSSI값을 선택하는 알고리즘을 설계하였고, 위치 인식의 정확도를 높이는데 초점을 두었다. RSSI값을 미리 실측하여 Curve Fitting을 이용하여 각각의 고정 AP마다 RSSI와 거리의 관계식을 산출하여 위치 계산에 사용하였다. 또한 실제 위치 인식 시스템을 기존의 삼각 측량법만을 사용하는 방법과 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법을 각각 구현하였다. 또한 모의실험을 통해 실제 모바일 노드의 위치와 측정된 위치의 오차율을 비교하여 성능을 측정하였다. 모의실험을 통해 성능을 비교하여 모바일 노드의 위치 인식 오차율을 줄이고, 정확도를 향상하였다.

The purpose of this study was compare to the patient setup deviation of two different type thermoplastic immobilization masks for glottis cancer in the intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). A total of 16 glottis cancer cases were divided into two groups based on applied mask type: standard or alternative group. The mean error (M), three-dimensional setup displacement error (3D-error), systematic error (${\Sigma}$), random error (${\sigma}$) were calculated for each group, and also analyzed setup margin (mm). The 3D-errors were $5.2{\pm}1.3mm$ and $5.9{\pm}0.7mm$ for the standard and alternative groups, respectively; the alternative group was 13.6% higher than the standard group. The systematic errors in the roll angle and the x, y, z directions were $0.8^{\circ}$, 1.7 mm, 1.0 mm, and 1.5 mm in the alternative group and $0.8^{\circ}$, 1.1 mm, 1.8 mm, and 2.0 mm in the alternative group. The random errors in the x, y, z directions were 10.9%, 1.7%, and 23.1% lower in the alternative group than in the standard group. However, absolute rotational angle (i.e., roll) in the alternative group was 12.4% higher than in the standard group. For calculated setup margin, the alternative group in x direction was 31.8% lower than in standard group. In contrast, the y and z direction were 52.6% and 21.6% higher than in the standard group. Although using a modified thermoplastic immobilization mask could be affect patient setup deviation in terms of numerical results, various point of view for an immobilization masks has need to research in terms of clinic issue.

The sound source localization technique has various application fields in the era of internet-of-things, for which the probe size becomes critical. The localization methods using the acoustic intensity vector has an advantage of downsizing the layout of the array owing to a small finite-difference error for the short distance between adjacent microphones. In this paper, the acoustic intensity vector and the Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) method are compared in the viewpoint of the localization error in the far-field. The comparison is made according to the change of spacing between adjacent microphones of the three-dimensional microphone array arranged in a tetrahedral shape. An additional test is conducted in the reverberant field by varying the reverberation time to verify the effectiveness of the methods applied to the actual environments. For estimating the TDoA, the Generalized Cross Correlation-Phase transform (GCC-PHAT) algorithm is adopted in the computation. It is found that the mean localization error of the acoustic intensimetry is 2.9° and that of the GCC-PHAT is 7.3° for T₆₀ = 0.4 s, while the error increases as 9.9°, 13.0° for T₆₀ = 1.0 s, respectively. The data supports that a compact array employing the acoustic intensimetry can localize of the sound source in the actual environment with the moderate reflection conditions.

This study was conducted to verify the applicability of robot milking system through acquisition and analysis of model teat's position information using scanning range finder (SRF). Model teats, same size and shape as real teats, were designed to analyze the properties according to the material, distance error and angle error of the sensor. In addition, 2-dimensional distance information of each teats was obtained at same time with 4 teat models and the result were as follows. 1. In the case of the fingers on the experiment for selection of materials for teat model, the distance error was from 4.3 mm to 1.3 mm, average was 2.8 mm as a minimum record. In the case of rubber material, average distance error was 4.3 mm. So, this material was considered to be a most suitable model. 2. The distance error was maximum at 100 mm distance. The more distance increased, the less error increased up to 300 mm. Then the error increased after 300 mm and decreased again. 3. The maximum angle error of 10.1 mm was measured at $170^{\circ}$, in case of $70^{\circ}$ the error was 0.2 mm as a minimum value. There was no specific tendency to error of angle. 4. In the 2-dimensional location error for 4 teat models, distance error was 3.8 mm as minimum and 7.2 mm as maximum. The angle error was $1.2^{\circ}$ as maximum. All of errors were included within the accuracy of sensor, the robot milking system was considered to be applicable to measure the distance of teats due to the measuring velocity of SRF and the hole size of teat-cup.

In this study, the accuracy of three dimensional location was improved by self calibration bundle method with additional parameter, which is to correct systematic error through detection and elimination of the gross error from updated reference variance for observation values in photogram-metry. In this study, with the result of comparing accuracy of each method, correcting systematic error is more effective after gross error detection and when observation values are contained more than two gross error the point with maximum correlation value is detected by masking effect of least square adjustment.

The geolocation accuracy of SAR satellite imagery is affected by orbit and sensor information and external variables such as DEM accuracy and atmospheric delay. To predict geolocation accuracy of KOMPSAT-5 and KOMPSAT-6, this paper uses TerraSAR-X imagery which has similar spec. Simulation data for sensitivity analysis are generated using range equation and doppler equation with several key error sources. As a result of simulation analysis, the effect of sensor information error is larger than orbit information error. Especially, onboard electronic delay needs to be monitored periodically because this error affects geolocation accuracy of slant range direction by 30m. Additionally, DEM accuracy causes geolocation error by 20~30m in mountainous area and atmospheric delay can occur by 5m in response to atmospheric condition and incidence angle.

The detected arcs by the cone intersection(CI) method exist within a tolerant error from the original curve. But the position of breakpoint by the CI method is sensitive to the tolerant error. The deviation of breakpoint position makes ill effects to the detection of arc center or radius. In this paper a improved CI method for center detection and arc segmentation is proposed. The detected arcs from curves by the proposed method have very stable mean of deviations from the original curves. The experimental results show that the position of breakpoint by the proposed method is closer to real position than the one by other methods.

The rover acquires its own position information using satellites signals provided by several satellites(at least four or more). For the present, GNSS systems are widely used in various fields. However, there are many factors that cause accuracy errors in positioning between rovers and GNSS satellites. Due to satellite time error, orbit error, ionospheric & convective refraction, multipath, etc., rover can't acquire precise position. Differential GPS(DGPS) and Real-Time Kinematic(RTK) have been developed as compensation techniques to reduce such errors. In this paper, we intend to develop a terminal with RTK technique to acquire precise position information of mobile station.

본 논문의 실내위치측위시스템은 무선랜 환경에서 AP의 RSSI 신호를 수신하여 Friis 공식을 통해 거리로 산출되고, 산출된 거리는 삼각측량법에 의해 (x, y)좌표로 변환되어 현재의 위치를 나타낸다. 여기서 RSSI 신호는 신호잡음을 포함하고 신호잡음으로 인하여 실제 위치 측위 시 오차가 발생한다. 이러한, 오차를 보정하고 실내위치측위 정확도를 향상하기 위해 비선형시스템에서 사용하는 확장칼만필터를 적용하여 실험하였다. 본 실내위치측위시스템의 시스템모델은 선형이고 측정모델은 비선형이므로 효율적인 보정알고리즘인 확장칼만필터를 선택하고 실험은 MATLAB로 수행하였다. 실험결과 실내위치측위시스템의 정확도가 향상되었다.
