With IoT device technology developments, such devices now can perceive the surrounding environment and operate upon the condition, but a method for efficiently processing an enormous amount of IoT device data is required. The existing cloud computing has a transmission delay problem due to load and distance. Fog Computing, an environment to control IoT devices, therefore, emerged to solve this problem. In Fog Computing, IoT devices are located close to each other to solve the shortcomings of the cloud system. While many earlier studies on Fog Computing for IoT mainly focus on its structure and framework, we would like to propose an integrated Fog Computing platform that monitors, analyzes, and controls IoT devices.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate and analyze the function of a Smart Plug before and after it is applied on the electrical appliances by controlling standby power usage. The research measures and analyzes the amount of electrical energy used while activating the Smart Plug with two types of appliances in a university facilities. The smart plugs were applied into a Group 1 appliances (Multi-function device, computer, laptop, Air con) which completely hinder the standby power, and a Group 2 appliances (Refrigerator, cold and hot water dispenser) which does not completely hinder the standby powers due to the characteristics of the function. First, the total standby power saving of all electrical appliances (Group 1 and Group 2) using the Smart plug was measured as 4.59%. Second, the energy saving of the Group 1 products was analyzed as 26.43%. Third, the standby power saving of the air conditioners from mid October to early December was measured as 31.06%, during the seasons when air conditioning was not actively in use. The research indicates that all specified appliances did have better energy efficiency with the Smart plug regardless of the amount of energy usage.

LoRa has been evaluated as a promising technology for Internet of things networks. Theoretically, the technology is robust for long-range communication by using chirp spreading spectrum, provides several orthogonal logical channels in a physical channel, exploits spatial reusability by introducing a star-of-stars topology. A part of recent studies indicates the quasi-orthogonality, or the imperfect orthogonality, between logical channels. The channel elements, however, are both spreading factor and bandwidth. Nevertheless, Most of the researches only treat the spreading factor. This study presents the quasi-orthogonality between all of the logical channels built by variations of the both factors. Furthermore, it shows the performance varied by the logical channel interference.

자율운항선박은 제4차 산업혁명 시대의 핵심기술인 사물인터넷과 빅데이터, 인공지능 등이 집약된 미래 고부가가치 선박으로 주목받고 있는 반면, 실제 선박 운항 중 많은 위험요소들로 선박 안전상의 우려가 제기되고 있다. 해양교통에 있어 안전규제는 해사안전 증진 및 해양사고 위험성을 최소화하기 위한 중요요소라고 할 수 있으며, 자율운항선박 시대에서도 동일하게 작용할 것으로 보인다. 이에 자율운항선박 시대 준비를 위한 안전규제의 재정립은 선박의 안전운항을 위한 안전관리체계 정비를 위한 핵심사항이라고 할 수 있으며. 최근 국내·외에서 논의되고 있는 자율운항선박 운항을 위한 규제 개발 역시 중요한 의미를 가진다. 본 논문에서는 자율운항선박 운용을 위한 안전규제체계 개선을 위해 실제 상용화를 앞둔 자율주행자동차 안전위험 이슈 분석 사례를 기반으로 자율운항선박 운용에 따른 안전위험 이슈를 도출했다. 이러한 결과는 자율운항선박의 운용을 위한 규제 개발 논의 시점에서 향후 자율운항선박의 상용화 및 안전규제체계 마련을 위한 기초자료로 활용 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposed a new concept of global healthcare system based on M2M technology with the combination of networks by using IPv6 techniques. The proposed system consists of 6LoWPAN based wearable sensors, gateway for the connection of different networks, and server program offering health information. Thus our approach presents an intelligent system which allows direct exchange of information between machines without human assistance with the epoch-making extension of measurement environment in healthcare areas appropriately.

IoT is a new emerging technology to lead the $4^{th}$ industry renovation and has been widely used in industry and home to increase the quality of human being. In this paper, IoT based face detection and recognition system for a smart elevator is developed. Haar cascade classifier is used in a face detection system and a proposed PCA algorithm written in Python in the face recognition system is implemented to reduce the execution time and calculates the eigenfaces. SVM or Euclidean metric is used to recognize the faces detected in the face detection system. The proposed system runs on RaspberryPi 3. 200 sample images in ORL face database are used for training and 200 samples for testing. The simulation results show that the recognition rate is over 93% for PP+EU and over 96% for PP+SVM. The execution times of the proposed PCA and the conventional PCA are 0.11sec and 1.1sec respectively, so the proposed PCA is much faster than the conventional one. The proposed system can be suitable for an elevator monitoring system, real time home security system, etc.

We developed a portable card reader for the visually impaired. In South Korea, there is insufficient development of lifestyle aids for people with disabilities. Living aids for people with disabilities are being developed using information technology, smart phones, Internet of Things(IoT) devices, 3D printers, and so on. Blind people were interviewed, which showed that the card recognition function using a currently developed smart phone app was not able to recognize the screen of the smart phone by the hand of the visually impaired, and it was inconvenient to operate. In recent years, devices that enable the visually impaired to recognize cards have been studied in foreign countries and are emerging prototypes. But what is currently available is expensive and inconvenient. In addition, visually impaired people are most vulnerable to low-income families, which makes it difficult to purchase and use expensive devices. In this study, we developed a card reader that recognizes a card using a Raspberry Pi, which is an open-source hardware that can be applied to IoT. The card reader plays it by voice and vibration, and the visually impaired can use it at a low price.

Internet of thing becomes more active, many sensor devices are increasing. Sensors can use network wired network or use mobile communication network. From the viewpoint of the transmission rate, the mobile communication network can be roughly divided into two types of high-speed communication and low-speed communication. In the case of hundreds of millions of sensors in the mobile communication network, resources are wasted to use high-speed communication. Communication is required to reduce the transmission rate and appropriately allocate resources without wasting such resources. As the Internet of Thing has been activated, Narrowband Internet of Thing(NB-IoT), which is one of the low-power technologies in recent mobile communications, is in the spotlight from various companies. Currently, it can be seen that only NB-IoT or other low power consumption communication has the potential to be able to connect to the Internet with rapidly increasing sensor devices. In this paper, we designed and implemented a heater controller using Huawei NB-IoT communication Module, a server that collects controller information, and an application that allows default settings for devices. The main function of this system is to collect temperature and heater status and give it to the server, control the heater from the server, and set parameters for the heater to operate automatically. The system can be applied to places where wired communication is not established, such as road information, smart agriculture, and small reservoirs as well as heaters.
