Wireless sensor networks consist of thousands of sensor nodes that have low power, low footprint and low computational capacities. So the burning issues in the design and deployment of these sensor nodes in the practical application areas include the energy conservation and network lifetime. Efficient routing schemes can help reduce the energy consumption and thus increase the network lifetime. This paper deals with the comparative analysis of popular routing protocols such as LEACH, LEACH-C, MTE, and PEGASIS. The protocols are compared by using performance me tries such as system lifetime, the time for first node death, and total system energy.

A new converter to transfer energy from a low-voltage AC current source to a battery is proposed. It is focused to find operational modes of the converter. The low-voltage AC current source is an equivalent of the piezoelectric generator, which converts the mechanical energy to the electric energy. The converter consists of a full-bridge MOSFET rectifier and a MOSFET boost converter in order to make the converter small and efficient. The operational principle and modes of the converter are investigated with the consideration of effects of the parasitic capacitances of MOSFETs and diode. The results are proved with simulation studies using PSIM and Pspice.

지구온단화와 이상기후에 의해 시설물 피해가 나날이 증가하고 있으며, 농촌의 인구감소 및 고령화에 의해 이러한 집중강우등에 대한 대처도 어려운 실정이다. 현재 전국에서 농업용수 공급을 위해 사용하고 있는 농업용 저수지는 17,882개소로서 이 중 축조한지가 35년 이상 경과된 저수지가 15,856개소로서 88.7%나 차지하고 있다. 이러한 현상은 저수지를 구성하고 있는 각종 부대시설의 노후화로 귀결되며 농업용수의 낭비 및 효율적인 운영을 위해서는 시설의 현대화가 필수적이라고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 저수지에서 물을 직접 공급하는 시설인 사통수문을 대상으로 현대화를 이룩하고 또한 사용동력도 대체에너지를 이용하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 사통수문의 수문비는 수중의 압력을 효율적으로 분산시킬 수 있는 원형수문비와 수중에서도 사용동력을 가장 적게 할 수 있는 밸브형을 기준으로 개발을 하였으며, 수문비와 구동부를 연결하는 작동 롯드의 힘전달을 최소화하기 위하여 유니버셜 쪼인트를 볼밸브형으로 개발하였다. 이에 따라서 작동용 롯드의 길이가 길어져도 수문비에 걸리는 작동모멘트를 최소화하여 태양광을 이용한 동력사용이 가능해졌다. 특히 수중에서 움직이는 특성을 감안하여 원형 수문비의 경우에는 수문비와 수문틀 사이에 마찰력을 감소시키기 위하여 수문틀측을 약간 경사지게 가공을 하고 중간에 볼 베이렁을 부착시켜 수문개폐가 원활토록 지수부의 구조변화를 하였다. 또한 농업용수공급시 수류와 함께 유입되는 저수지 내 오물을 차단하기 위하여 수문의 전면에 스크린을 설치하였으며 토사퇴적으로 인하여 수문작동의 방해가 되지 않도록 하기 위하여 토목구조물을 설치하였다. 그리고 동력전달을 효율적으로 하기 위하여 Solar Unit으로부터 나오는 전기를 중전기에서 밧데리로 축전을 시키고 완전 충전 후에는 나머지 전기는 방전이 되도록 회로를 구성하였다. 사통수문 자원조사 결과에 의하면 현재 저수지에 물공급을 하는 수문은 취수탑 형식이 70% 이상을 차지하고 있으며 나머지 30%의 사통수문 중 원형수문비가 98% 이상을 차지하고 있다. 현재 대체에너지를 사용하는 저수지 사통수문은 없는 것으로 조사되었으며 전력을 사용하는 사통도 조사결과에 의하면 20% 이내로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 향후 수리시설 개보수시 적은 예산으로 사업을 시행하는 경우 사통수문의 설치방향의 지표가 될 것으로 판단되며 수리시설의 운영관리에 대한 새로운 대안으로 제시할 수 있다.

A DC-DC converter is being widely used for various household appliances and for industry applications. The DC-CC converter is powered from single battery, and the voltage is varied according to the purpose. In the vehicle, various accessories whose electric power is different are being un4 Thus, plural number of DC-DC converter should be provided, so these situations bring complicated circuits, and accordingly, higher cost. Under such backgrounds, in this paper, we propose a novel buck-boost chopper circuit with simply configuration which can supply to two or more different output loads. The propose chewer circuit can control output voltages by controlling duty ratio by using typically two switching devices, which is composed by single boost-switch and single buck-switch. The output voltage can be controlled widely. A few modified circuits developed from the fundamental circuit are represented including the general multi-load circuit. And all this merits and appropriateness was proved by computer simulation and experience.

Small electric motors in an automobile perform various tasks such as engine cooling, pumping, HVAC etc. At present, most of them are DC motors supplied by 12V or 24V batteries. However, DC motors suffer from low efficiency, life cycles and reliability. Therefore, there is a growing interest in substituting DC motors for advanced at motors including switched reluctance motors(SRM). Although there are several other forms SRM convertors, they are either unsatisfactory to the control performance or unsuitable for the 12V battery source. Especially, a conventional asymmetric converter of SRM provides the best flexible and effective control to the current waveform of SRM, but it has the most switches and produces conducting voltage drops across two power switches during SRM operation. For automotive applications with a 12V battery source, this circuit is inadequate. For considering the requirement for effective operation and simple structure of converter in the limited internal circumstance of automobiles, the author inclines toward selecting Modified C-dump converter and Energy efficient c-dump converter.

This study is a system development for voice information protection equipment in major meetings and places requiring security. Security performance and stability were secured with information leakage prevention technology through generation of false noise and ultrasonic waves. The cutoff frequency band for blocking the leakage of voice information, which has strong straightness due to the nature of the radio wave to the recording prevention module, blocks the wideband frequency of 20~20,000Hz, and the deception jamming technology is applied to block the leakage of voice information, greatly improving the security. To solve this problem, we developed a system that blocks the recording of a portable smartphone using a battery, and made the installation of a separate device smaller and lighter so that customers do not recognize it. In addition, it is necessary to continuously study measures and countermeasures for efficiently using the output of the anti-recording speaker for long-distance recording prevention.
