This paper aims to present the mathematical model to find the mean web object transfer latency in the slow-start phase of TCP congestion control mechanism, which is one of the main control techniques of Internet. Mean latency is an important service quality measure of end-user in the network. The application area of the proposed latency model is the narrowband environment including multi-hop wireless network and Internet of Things(IoT), where packet loss occurs in the slow-start phase only due to small window. The model finds the latency considering initial window size and the packet loss rate. Our model shows that for a given packet loss rate, round trip time and initial window size mainly affect the mean web object transfer latency. The proposed model can be applied to estimate the mean response time that end user requires in the IoT service applications.

Sensors equipped in Internet-of-Thing (IoT) devices are used to measure the surrounding contexts, and IoT applications analyze the contexts to infer situations and provide situation-specific smart services. There are different context acquisition schemes including pulling, pushing, and broadcasting. Most IoT devices support only one of the schemes. Hence, there can be an incompatible issue on data acquisition schemes between applications and devices, and consequently it could result in an increased development cost and inefficiency on application maintenance. This paper presents design patterns which can effectively remedy the incompatibility problem. By applying the patterns, IoT applications with incompatibility can be systematically and effectively developed. And, also its maintainability is expected to increase.

In this paper, we propose the terminal authentication system using blockchain and TOTP(Time-based One-time Password Algorithm) to sustain a continuous authentication between user device and service device. And we experiment this system by using door-lock as a terminal of IoT(Internet of Things). In the future, we can apply this result to several devices of IoT for convenience and security. Although IoT devices frequently used everyday require convenience and security at the same time, it is difficult for IoT devices having features of the low-capacity and light-weight to apply the existing authentication technology requiring a high amount of computation. Blockchain technology having security and integrity have been used as a storage platform, but its authentication cannot be performed when the terminal cannot access any network. We show the method to solve this problem using Blockchain and TOPT.

최근 사물인터넷에 대한 관심이 증가함에 따라 미래인터넷에 대한 연구가 증가하고 있다. 각기 다른 사물인터넷을 연결하기 위하여 다양한 네트워크 인프라가 필요하며, 사용자뿐만 아니라 다양한 네트워크 자원에서 요구하는 서비스나 콘텐츠 등이 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 이들을 식별하기 위한 통일된 식별 체계가 필요하다. 이를 위하여 미국에서는 NDN에 대한 연구가 진행 중이며, 이외에도 MobilityFirst, XIA와 같은 프로젝트성 연구들이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 기존의 연구들을 보완하고 새로운 미래인터넷에 확장 가능한 통합된 Name-Identifier-Locator 프레임워크를 제안한다.

Smart City, a key application area of the AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things), provides various services in safety, security, and healthcare sectors through location tracking and location-based services. an IPS (Indoor Positioning System) is required to implement location-based services, and wireless communication technologies such as WiFi, UWB (Ultra-wideband), and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) are being applied. BLE, which enables data transmission and reception with low power consumption, can be applied to various IoT devices such as sensors and beacons at a low cost, making it one of the most suitable wireless communication technologies for indoor positioning. BLE utilizes the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) to estimate the distance, but due to the influence of multipath fading, which causes variations in signal strength, it results in an error of several meters. In this paper, we conducted research on a path loss model that can be applied to BLE IPS for proximity services, and confirmed that optimizing the free space propagation loss coefficient can reduce the distance error between the Tx and Rx devices.

최근 국내외에서 모든 사물이 인터넷에 연결되는 초(超)연결혁명이 진행 중이며, 앞으로 사물인터넷 기반의 다양한 혁신과 사업기회가 창출될 것으로 전망되고 있다. 하지만 국내의 경우 세계 최고 수준의 광대역 방송통신 인프라 및 IoT 기기 제조역량 등을 갖추고 있으나, 표준 기반의 개방형 IoT 플랫폼의 부재로 국내 기업의 시장 진입이 어려운 상황이다. 대기업은 개별적으로 플랫폼을 개발중이나 글로벌 시장에 대한 주도력이 부족하고, 중소기업은 플랫폼 부재로 시장진입이 어려워 향후 스마트 폰 산업에 이어 IoT 산업마저 글로벌 기업에 종속될 우려가 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 국내외 다양한 분야의 기업들이 참여하여 다양한 홈 IoT 제품과 서비스를 개발할 수 있도록 특정 플랫폼이나 솔루션에 제약 없이 다양한 IoT 기기를 연결, 제어가 가능한 표준 기반의 개방형 홈 IoT 서비스 제공 방안을 연구하였다. 실험 결과에서는 제안된 개방형 홈 IoT 플랫폼을 통해 Z-Wave, IP, ZigBee, IrDA 등 다양한 통신 방식을 사용하는 홈 IoT 기기를 제어하고 정보 수집하여 사용이 가능함을 보여주었고, 이를 기반으로 플랫폼을 빅데이터 기술 및 기계학습 기능을 추가적으로 고도화하면 다양한 사물로부터 수집된 정보와 방송 정보, 웹 정보 등을 융합한 서비스 제공 등 소비자 중심의 창의적인 신규 방송통신 융합서비스 제공이 가능할 것으로 기대가 된다.

Our research proposese an IoT Broker (gateway) platform which considers the both sides of a service developer and a user. The platform associates the devices around us with virtual-entities and infers the owner of the devices through the ontology scheme. These functionalities can make the service developer easily design a new service. For the user, the service can be automatically installed and deployed under this platform. We also make it possible for the IoT broker to be plugged-in by integrating various communication platforms and protocols into that platform. Our expreriment with the AllJoyn plug-in on Node-RED substantiated that various service flows can be easily deployed and work on our platform.

정보통신기술의 발달은 개인용 컴퓨터나 노트북 컴퓨터와 같은 컴퓨터를 중심으로 이루어진 네트워킹 및 인터넷 환경을 컴퓨터를 포함한 스마트폰, PDA, 휴대용 멀티미디어 기기와 같이 이동이 가능한 소형의 기기를 중심으로 변화시키고 있다. 그러나, 연산, 통신 및 네트워킹 기능이 가능한 소형 장치들은 정보화 기기뿐만 아니라 계량기, 온도계와 같은 일반적인 사물에도 부착될 수가 있다. 사물에 부착된 이러한 소형 장치들은 사물의 정보를 자동으로 획득하게 해주거나 사물간의 통신 네트워크를 통해 정보의 상호 공유가 가능해진다. 이와 같이 사물에 부착된 통신 장치를 이용하여 사물이 네트워크에 연결되거나 사물간에 통신 네트워크를 구성하여 정보를 공유하는 개념 및 기술을 지칭하는 용어로 IoT, M2M 및 사물지능통신 등이 있다. 이러한 네트워크 환경에서는 사람 대 사람, 사람 대 사물뿐만 아니라 사물 대 사물간의 통신 네트워크가 가능해져 모든 객체간의 정보 공유가 가능해지며 이는 미래 유비쿼터스 정보 서비스 사회로 진화하기 위한 필수적인 기술 요소라 할 수 있을 것이다.
