Received signal strength indicator (RSSI) represents the strength of the received signal at the front end of analog-to-digital convertor (ADC) input. RSSI value can be used for deciding the status of channel at the receiver. In this paper, the usage of RSSI in handover is studied using the practical measurement data. We first measure RSSI in 5.9GHz frequency band which is commonly used in wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE) system. i.e., vehicular communications. Then, to implement a fast handover, the usability of RSSI data is analyzed based on the measured data. We also apply handover in practical highway environments.

In this paper, we propose an AVLS(Automatic Vehicle Location System) using the DSRC(Dedicated Short Range Communication) which adopts a radio communication tool between RSE(Road-Side Equipment) and OBE(On-Board Equipment) on a vehicle and uses the ISM bandwidth of 5.8GHz radio frequency. Typical AVLS uses the sensors for detecting the vehicle, but the DSRC system is developed for supporting various services such as the position of vehicle, clearance, vehicle to vehicle communication, collection and distributions of traffic and road information. Also, for fast processing, we design three-layer configuration of physical(L1), data link(L2), and application layer(L7), which simplifies the seven-layer configuration. We suggest the proposed system as a new technology for replacement of typical wireless communication system and sensors for AVLS.

본 논문은 현재 경찰청 및 각 지자체의 주도하에 수도권을 중심으로 새롭게 보급되고 있는 도시 교통 정보 시스템 (UTIS)과 국토해양부 및 한국 도로 공사 등을 중심으로 한 DSRC 기반의 교통 정보 시스템을 모두 활용하는 시스템 및 효율적인 경로탐색 알고리즘을 제안한다. 도시 교통 정보 시스템은 무선랜과 같은 프로토콜을 이용해서, 기존 단방향 방식인 TPEG의 주요 도로 위주의 제한된 교통 정보 단점을 극복하고 많은 지선를 포함한 교통 정보를 제공하고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 운전자들이 단지 도심 내에서만 운전하는 것이 아니고 고속도로 등을 통해서 장거리 운전도 하기 때문에 고속도로 상의 DSRC 기반의 서비스도 동일 단말에서 지원해야 하나의 단말에서 다양한 서비스를 지원받을 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문의 두 개의 다른 통신 모듈의 통합된 단말 시스템을 제안하고 기존에 제안된 UTIS 기반의 분산 경로 탐색 방식을 DSRC 기반의 고속도로 교통 정보를 활용해서 새로운 경로탐색 알고리즘을 제안한다. 또한 향후 추가적으로 이루어질 연구와 현재 다른 주체들의 주도로 이루어지는 서비스를 제도적으로 보완할 수 있는 방안도 제시한다.

This paper demonstrates the in-vehicle dilemma zone warning system (DZWS) project developed as a part of the Driver Advisory and Collision Warning System in Automated Vehicle and Highway System (AVHS). The DZWS project, one of the Korea national ITS projects in 2000 develops the in-vehicle warning device to support drivers' decision making on whether to stop or to proceed to clear the intersection prior to the onset of yellow signal for avoiding the high risk of collision at signalized intersections through the dedicated short range communication (DSRC). This paper explores the design of optimal communication systems between roadway and vehicles, the operational and functional concepts of dilemma zone warning system based on appropriate approach speeds, and the system integration for field test at two sites of signalized intersections. Findings from the system integration indicated that the system would be implemented in eliminating the dilemma zone relative to approach speeds and in reducing red light violations and intersection collisions through the in-vehicle warning device at signalized intersection.

This paper presents an experimental study on the radio propagation characteristics in subway tunnel at 18GHz frequency band which has been assigned to video transmission between train and wayside. The radio propagation tests are carried out in the subway tunnel of Seoul Metro using the antenna and communication devices of the prototype video transmission system. The measurement results show that 18GHz radio propagation in subway tunnel has smaller path loss than that of general outdoor radio environment. It is also cleared that the arch-type tunnels have smaller radio propagation losses than rectangular tunnels, and single track tunnels have smaller pass loss than double track tunnels. From the measurements, the radio propagation coverage is worked out as 520 meters. The curved tunnels which cannot have LOS communication between transmitter and receiver have large pass losses and fluctuation profile along distance. The radio propagation coverage along curved tunnels is worked out as 300 meters. These investigation results can be used to design the 18GHz radio transmission system for subway tunnel by providing the optimized wayside transmitter locations and handover algorithm customized to the radio propagation characteristics in subway tunnels.

Bicycle has a large amount of kinetic energy available for energy harvesting technology in its speedy and balanced riding movement. Systematic and realistic analysis of its dynamic property is essential to improve the efficiency of energy harvester. However, there has not been enough researches about precise measurement or analysis of bicycle dynamics on real roads. This study aims to investigate the characteristics of vibrational movement of bicycle using MEMS-based accelerometer and to develop a prototype of electromagnetic energy harvester with nonlinear behavior which is proper to the random vibrations accompanied in bicycle riding. The vibrational components have average magnitude of 1 g and turn out to be independent of riding speed. The developed prototype of energy harvester was installed on a front port of a bicycle to use this ambient vibration and generated an average electrical power of 1.5 mW which is enough to support power for most of portable sensors and short range radio-frequency communication. Further study about isolation of vibration from a rider and conversion efficiency is ongoing. The developed energy harvester is expected to be a platform technology for sustainable portable power supply for various smart IT devices and applications.
