This paper presented about the system for controlling a wireless power transmission using bluetooth protocol. Bluetooth protocol has been applied in many fields that communicate with data and audio signal in short range. Recently, however, Bluetooth low energy(BLE) more simple than the existing protocol is standardized and is widely used in medical applications and consumer electronics that handle small amount of sensor data and transmit by the low power control signal. It has also been adopted as the standard for the control in the wireless power transfer system. In this paper, We analysed and described the bluetooth low energy protocol techniques for controlling the wireless power transfer system.

In this study, we analyzed the variations in the received signal strength index (RSSI) measured from Bluetooth beacons based on the strength and propagation direction of Bluetooth low energy (BLE) signal. Using a smartphone, we performed field experiments to investigate RSSI variations in the BLE signal transmitted by non-directional and directional beacons in an amethyst mine. In case of non-directional beacons, as the distance between the Bluetooth beacon and smartphone decreased, the RSSI increases, whereas as the BLE signal strength increased, the RSSI average gradually increased. The mean value of RSSI measured from the directional beacons was changed without relation to the facing angle between the Bluetooth beacon and smartphone. The results of this study can be used as basic data for developing a Bluetooth beacon-based proximity warning system for underground mines.

저전력 블루투스가 공개 된 이후 저전력 블루투스 비콘을 이용한 서비스들이 출시되고 있다. 비콘 기반 서비스는 사용자의 스마트폰이 블루투스 기능을 활성화해두었을 때, 일정한 주기의 블루투스 스캐닝을 통해 이용할 수 있다. 블루투스 비콘이 밀집된 실내 공간의 경우, 동일한 비콘이 중복 탐지되거나 사용자가 사용하지 않을 먼 거리의 비콘까지 탐지하게 되므로 스마트폰에서 불필요한 에너지 소모가 발생한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하고자 본 연구에서는 실내 구획화를 통해 동일 영역 내에서 비콘이 중복으로 탐지되는 것을 방지하는 방법과, 사용자 이동성에 따른 동적 스캐닝 주기 최적화를 통해 밀집된 실내 공간에서도 누락되는 비콘 신호를 최소로 하는 기법을 제안한다. 이러한 사용자 이동성에 기반한 스캐닝 주기 최적화 방법은 스마트폰의 전력소모량을 감소시킨다.

세계적으로 에너지 과다 사용으로 인한 비상사태가 발생하면서 에너지 절감, 그린 에너지에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 특히 블루투스 기반의 네트워크 구성을 통해 중앙 조명 제어가 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 블루투스는 저전력 기술 중 높은 전력을 소모하기 때문에 조명기기가 증가할수록 전력사용량이 증가하기 때문에 저전력을 유지하기 어렵다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Zigbee 기술을 기반으로 조명기기를 제어할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하였다.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technologies are perhaps the most prominent examples of wireless communication technologies used in the Internet of Things (IoT) environment. Compared to widely used Wi-Fi, Bluetooth technology has some flaws including 1:1 connection (one-way) between Master and Slave, slow transmission, and limited connection range; Bluetooth is mainly used for connecting audio devices. Since the release of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), some of the flaws of Bluetooth technology have been improved but it still failed to become a competitive alternative of Wi-Fi. This paper presents a method of data transmission through broadcasting in BLE and demonstrates its performance, one-to-many data transfer result. The Connection-Free Data Transmission proposed in this paper will hopefully be utilized in special circumstances requiring 1:N data transmission or disaster security network.

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol has attracted attention as a promising technology for low data throughput and low energy wireless sensor networks. Fast device discovery is very important in a BLE based wireless network. It is necessary to configure the network to work with minimized energy consumption because the BLE network nodes are expected to operate a long time typically on a coin cell battery. However, since it is difficult to obtain low energy and low latency at the same time, the BLE standard introduces wide range setting of parameters related to device discovery process and let the network operators to set up parameter values for the application. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the performance of device discovery according to the related parameter values prior to BLE network operation. In this paper we analyze the expected value and the cumulative distribution function of the number of advertisements for device discovery in the BLE network. In addition, we propose a scheme for controlling the interval between advertising events that can improve the performance of device discovery without increasing energy consumption.

To measure the wear amount of the TBM disk cutter in real time, it is important not only to automate the measurement using sensors, but also to stably transmit the measured data to the information processing system. In this study, we investigated the viability of utilizing Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to wirelessly transmit sensor data from the TBM cutter head to a receiver located at the chamber's rear. Through laboratory experiments, we analyzed the Received Signal Strength Index (RSSI) of the receiver considering various signal strength of the transmitter, separation distances between the transmitter and receiver and chamber fill materials. Our results demonstrate that wireless data transmission is feasible across all tested conditions when the transmitter signal strength is 0 dBm or higher.
