In this paper, we propose and implement the automated brightness control system using distance measuring sensor for reducing the power consumption of emotional lighting device. In order to reduce the power consumption of emotional lighting devices which express continuous color changes, the proposed device measures the distance continuously using ultrasonic sensor and by using this, it also performs PWM Dimming control. The lighting device is composed of micro controller, LED driver, ultrasonic sensor, communication module and so on. And the device performs the real time brightness control by adapting the measured distance information from ultrasonic sensor to PWM signals. From this experiment, we implement the active lighting system which minimizes unnecessary power consumption during user's absence by adapting existing energy reducing techniques.

In this paper, we proposed novel photonic bandgap(PBG) structure using EGP(Elevated Ground Plane) and via in ceramic substrate of microstrip line. From analysis result, the proposed PBG structure is reduced 52.5% at size and increased 45 % at bandwidth compared to typical planar PBG structure. It is also reduced 32 % at size and improved more than 8 dB at power loss compared to typical multilayer DGS(Defected Ground Structure). The proposed PBG structure also can be used bandstop and lowpass filter and it will be useful for small microwave integrated circuit and module development.

In this paper, we introduce a mobile-type tiny sensor device that can classify the activities of daily living based on the state-dependent motion analysis using a 3-axial accelerometer in real-time. The device consists of an accelerometer, GPS module, 32bit micro-controller for sensor data processing and activity classification, and a bluetooth module for wireless data communication. The size of device is 50*47*14(mm) and lasts about 10 hours in operation-mode and 160 hours in stand-by mode. Up to now, the device can recognize three user activities ("Upright", "Running", "Walking") based on the decision tree. This tree is constructed by the pre-learning process to activities of subjects. The accuracy rate of recognizing activities is over 90% for various subjects.

The improvement of irradiation intensity and irradiation uniformity is essential for large area and high power UVA light source application. In this study, large number of chips bonded by micro soldering technique were driven by low current, and current limiting diodes were configured to supply constant current to parallel circuits consisting of large number of series strings. The dimension of light source module circuit board was $350{\times}90mm^2$ and 16,650 numbers of 385 nm flip chip LEDs were used with a configuration of 90 parallel and 185 series strings. The space between LEDs in parallel and series strings were maintained at 1.9 mm and 1.0 mm distance, respectively. The size of the flip chip was $750{\times}750{\mu}m^2$ were used with contact pads of $260{\times}669{\mu}m^2$ size, and SAC (96.5 Sn/3.0 Ag/0.5 Cu) solder was used for flip chip bonding. The fabricated light source module with 7.5 m A supply current showed temperature rise of $66^{\circ}C$, whereas irradiation was measured to be $300mW/cm^2$. Inaddition, 0.23% variation of the constant current in each series string was demonstrated.

4-bit 강유전체 위상변위기를 이용하여 10 GHz, 상온에서 작동하는 위상배열 안테나를 설계 및 제작하였다. 이 안테나는 빔 스캔을 위하여 전압에 대한 비선형특성을 보이는 강유전체 Bal-xSrxTiO3 (BST)를 기본으로 하는 위상변위기를 이용하였다. 우리는 펄스레이져 증착법으로 MgO (001) 기판위에 걸맞게 증착된 BST 박막을 일반적인 사진공정과 식각법을 이용하여 동일평판형 전극을 가진 위상변위기를 만들었다. 일반적인 동일평판형 강유전체 위상변위기의 경우 연결 전송선로의 임피던스와의 차이로 인해 반사손실과 이로 인한 부가적인 삽입손실이 발생한다. 이런 손실들을 줄이기 위해 입력과 출력 포트에 임피던스 매칭을 하였다. 이렇게 테이퍼링되어 만들어진 동일평판형 위상변위기는 이전의 구조에 비해 반사 손실과 삽입 손실 값에서 각각 약 10, 2 dB 정도씩의 개선을 보였다. 이 구조로 전송선로의 길이를 길게하여 만든 1-bit 강유전체 위상변위기는 10 GHz, 150 V의 전압변화에서 180도의 차등위상변위를 보였으며 최대 삽입손실과 최대 반사손실은 각각 약 10 dB, 20 dB 이다. 안테나 모듈은 4개의 마이크로스트림 패치 안테나와 4개의 강유전체 위상변위기로 이루어졌는데 10 GHz, 150 V의 전압변화에서 약 15도의 빔 스캔을 확인하였다.

Software simulations have been widely used for the design and application development of a wireless sensor network that is an infrastructure of ubiquitous computing. In this study, we develop a sensor network simulator that can verify the behavior of sensor network applications, estimate execution time and power consumption, and simulate a large-scale sensor network. To implement the simulator, we use an instruction-level parallel discrete-event simulation method. Instruction-level simulation uses executable images loaded into a real sensor board as workload, such that it results in the high degree of details. Parallel simulation makes simulation of a large-scale sensor network possible by distributing workload into multiple computers. The simulator can predict the amount of power consumption based on operating time of modules in a sensor node and counting the number of executed instructions by kind. Also it can simulate ubiquitous applications with various scenarios and debug programs. Instruction traces used as workload for simulations are executable images produced by the cross-compiler for ATmega128L microcontroller.

CNG which was released as a substitute of the previous CAPI (Cryptography API) library from Microsoft is constructed with individual modules based on the plug-in architecture, this means CNG is exceedingly helpful in the cost of development as well as the facility of extension. On the opposite side of these advantages, considerations on security issues are quite insufficient. Therefore, a research on security assurance is strongly required in the environment of distributing and utilizing the CNG library, hence, we analyze possible security vulnerabilities on the CNG library. Based on analyzed vulnerabilities, proof-of-concept tools are implemented and vulnerabilities are verified using them. Verified results are that contents of mail, account information of mail server, and authentication information of web-sites such as Amazon, E-bay, Google, and Facebook are exposed in Outlook program and Internet Explorer program using CNG library. We consider that the analyzed result in this paper can improve the security for various applications using CNG library.

In this paper, we propose the efficient HW/SW co-design method of light-weight cryptography such as HIGHT, PRESENT and PRINTcipher using GEZEL. At first the symmetric cryptographic algorithms were designed using the GEZEL language which is efficiently used for HW/SW co-design. And for the improvement of performance the HW optimization theory such as unfolding, retiming and so forth were adapted to the cryptographic HW module conducted by FSMD. Also, the operation modes of those algorithms were implemented using C language in 8051 microprocessor, it can be compatible to various platforms. For providing reliable communication between HW/SW and preventing the time delay the improved handshake protocol was chosen for enhancing the performance of the connection between HW/SW. The improved protocol can process the communication-core and cryptography-core on the HW in parallel so that the messages can be transmitted to SW after HW operation and received from SW during encryption operation.

In this paper, we designed an embedded processor with 128Kbytes EPROM and 4Kbytes SRAM based on GMS30C2132 which RISC processor with DSP functions. And a new architecture of bus sharing to control the embedded memory and external memory unit i proposed aiming at one-cycle access between memories and CPU. For embedded 128Kbytes EPROM, we designed the new expansion interface for data size at data ordering with memory organization and the efficient interface for test. The embedded SRAM supports an extended stack area high speed DSP operation, instruction cache and variable data-length control which is accessed with 4K modulo addressing schemes. The proposed new architecture and circuits reduced the memory access cycle time from 40ns and improved operation speed 2-times for program benchmark test. The chip is occupied $108.68mm^2$ using $0.6{\mu}m$ CMOS technology.

The demand of MOST interface module is increasing with car-multimedia network system. MOST devices consist of INIC part which controls MOST network and EHC part which is used by user. The efficient data communication between EHC and INIC demands implementation of a proper device driver. This paper presents a design method for I2C communication driver which is used for transmitting control messages between nodes of MOST network. For effetive I2C communication, we design driver with NetService API. For testing the experiment, we use the MOST audio interface deivce for porting driver sources and will develop various driver on MOST device based OS.
