무선 센서 네트워크(WSN)를 구성하는 각 센서 노드들의 에너지 관리는 네트워크 전체의 생명주기에 영향을 미치는 요소 중 가장 중요한 요소이다. 센서 노드들은 한번 설치된 이후 짧게는 수개월에서 길게는 몇 년에 걸쳐 동작해야 하기 때문에 배터리에 의존하고 있는 센서 노드들의 에너지를 효율적으로 관리할 수 있는 기술들이 필요하다. Directed Diffusion은 센서 노드에서 수집한 데이터를 네트워크 전체에 브로드캐스팅 하지 않고, 소스(Source)노드로부터 싱크(Sink)노드까지 강화(Reinforce)된 경로를 통해서만 데이터를 전송하여 경로 이외의 노드들의 불필요한 에너지 소모를 줄일 수 있는 라우팅 프로토콜이다. 그러나 기존의 Directed Diffusion에서는 전송 경로 상에 장애가 발생했을 경우 싱크에서 전송한 익스플로러터리 패킷을 기다려야 하며, 장애가 발견되고 재전송되기 전까지 전송된 데이터는 무의미한 데이터가 된다. 본 논문에서는 앞서 언급된 Directed Diffusion의 장애 경로 복구의 문제점을 보완하기 위해 Fast Repair(FR)를 제안한다. FR은 데이터 전송 경로 상에 장애 발생 시 데이터를 재전송 하고 경로를 재설정하는데 효율적이며, 성능평가 결과에서도 기존의 Directed Diffusion에 비하여 향상된 성능을 나타내고 있다.

The Clustering technology of Energy efficiency wireless sensor network gets the energy efficiency by reducing the number of communication between sensor nodes and sink node. In this paper, First analyzed on the clustering technique of the distributed clustering protocol routing scheme LEACH (Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) and HEED (Hybrid, Energy-Efficient Distributed Clustering Approach), and based on this, new energy-efficient clustering technique is proposed for the cause the maximum delay of dead nodes and to increase the lifetime of the network. In the proposed method, the cluster head is elect the optimal efficiency node based on the residual energy information of each member node and located information between sink node and cluster node, and elected a node in the cluster head since the data transfer process from the data been sent to the sink node to form a network by sending the energy consumption of individual nodes evenly to increase the network's entire life is the purpose of this study. To verify the performance of the proposed method through simulation and compared with existing clustering techniques. As a result, compared to the existing method of the network life cycle is approximately 5-10% improvement could be confirmed.

Cluster based wireless sensor networks have a characteristic that the cluster heads collect and aggregate data from sensor nodes and send data to sink node. In addition, between the adjacent sensor nodes deployed in the same area is characterized to the similar sensing data. In this paper, we propose a transmission algorithm for improving the energy efficiency using these two features in the cluster-based wireless sensor networks. Adjacent neighboring nodes form a pair and the two nodes sense data on shifts for one round. Additionally, two cluster heads are selected in a cluster and one of them alternately collects data from nodes and transmits data to the sink. This paper describes a transmission rounding method and a transmission frame for increasing energy efficiency and compared with conventional methods. We perform computer simulations to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, and show better performance in terms of energy efficiency as compared with the LEACH algorithm.

무선 센서네트워크는 다수의 센서 노드로 구성되어 데이터를 수집하는 네트워크다. 센서 네트워크를 이루는 노드는 대부분 이동성이 없는 고정식 노드이다. 그러나 현재 센서 네트워크의 다양한 응용의 확장은 이동성있는 모바일 센서노드에 대한 지원을 요구하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이동성 있는 모바일 센서 노드의 네트워크 구성과 데이터 전송을 위해 셀을 기반으로 센서네트워크를 구성하고, 셀의 헤드를 이용하여 이동성 노드로부터 싱크 노드로의 데이터 전송이 가능하도록 무선 센서네트워크의 자기 구성 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

This research was conducted to estimate the chlorophyll contents of chrysanthemum leaves using SPAD-502 chlorophyll meter under different photoperiod and light intensity. Measurements were done at every third leaf intervals starting from the top of the stem to the bottom at harvest time. SPAD value was highest at 10 hours of photoperiods, followed by 13 and 16 hours of photoperiods. In particular, under short day condition, SPAD value was highest in the young leaves below the flower bud and decreased down the leaf profile. Under long day condition, SPAD value reached maximum at leaves between $15-27^{th}$ from the top and decreased to the minimum immediately below the flower bud (youngest leaf). These results may indicate that the younger leaves become strong source of supporting flowers in reproductive stage, while the younger leaves serve as sinks and older leaves support their development in vegetative stage. Changes of SPAD value at different levels of irradiance showed that highest SPAD value were observed at high irradiance and decreased with decreasing irradiance.

An underwater robot S/W framework consists of various sub-modules such as sensory data processing module, thruster control module, cognition module and behavior control module. Performance of a robot is determined by not only the efficiency of algorithms used but also effectiveness of their implementations. One most important factor of the effective implementation is the efficiency of data sharing module, as it transmits signals and data between the sub-modules and thus is directly related to the cycles of sensing and control The ideal data sharing module enables immediate access to any data source irrespective of system configurations. In reality, however, there are lots of obstacles including limitation of processing capacity of source modules, delay over network, and scheduling latency of operating systems. The paper proposes a new data sharing architecture and programming models to effectively handle such obstacles in implementation of underwater S/W framework on a small scale distributed computing system.

Wireless sensor networks is a core technology of ubiquitous computing which enables the network to aware the different kind of context by integrating exiting wired/wireless infranet with various sensor devices and connecting collected environmental data with applications. However it needs an energy-efficient approach in network layer to maintain the dynamic ad hoc network and to maximize the network lifetime by using energy constrained node. Cluster-based data aggregation and routing are energy-efficient solution judging from architecture of sensor networks and characteristics of data. In this paper. we propose a new distributed clustering algorithm in using distance from the sink. This algorithm shows that it can balance energy dissipation among nodes while minimizing the overhead. We verify that our clustering is more en-ergy-efficient and thus prolongs the network lifetime in comparing our proposed clustering to existing probabilistic clustering for sensor network via simulation.

The one of the core technologies for ubiquitous computing is WSN. WSN detects the information from the environment around them based on the information perceived from the human and all things and manages the information by connecting to the network in realtime. In this environment, the existing research provides the mechanism that most of sensor nodes in the target area can set the transmission path using RGF. However, unrelated to the target area will be responsible for the energy consumption of nodes that are the problem. In this paper, we propose EEDCP protocol. It is designed to collect data from the specific region on sinks in WSN. EEDCP is the protocol that sets the transmission path for collection data inside the target area in WSN. And this paper is shown that the proposed scheme is more efficient in the energy efficiency and the occurrence rate of isolated nodes by comparison with the previous studies through simulation.

WSN(Wireless Sensor Network) performs to detect and collect environmental information for one purpose. As examples, WSN is applicable for home network, patient management of a hospital, logistics management, status detection during the war and so on. The WSN is composed of a sink node and several sensor nodes and has a constraint in an aspect of energy consumption caused by limited battery resource. So many required mechanisms in WSN should consider the remained energy condition. A routing mechanism is requested to deliver the collected information to a sink considering energy efficiency in WSN. There have been many researches to establish (a) route(s) for data delivery to the sink. In this paper, we propose establishment of efficient routes. We proposed a uniform routing mechanism together with considering energy efficiency. For the routing, we define energy probability as routing metrics information and Performs suppression of exchange of control messages. In addition, we derive to uniformly consume the energy of the sensor node when establishing the routes. Also, we evaluate and analyze the energy efficiency for proposed mechanisms through NS-2 simulator.

WBSN (Wireless Body Sensor Network), also called WBAN (Wireless Body Area Networks) generally, is a kind of WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) applications, which is composed of the various sensor nodes residing in human body embodied or in wearable way. The measured data at each sensor node in WBSN requires being synchronized at sink node for exact analysis for status of human body, which is like WSN. Although many time synchronization protocols for WSN has been already developed, they are not appropriate to WBSN. In this paper, a new time synchronization protocol for WBSN considering the characteristics of WBSN is proposed. The proposed scheme is not only simple, but also consumes less power, leading to increasing network life time. We will show that the proposed scheme is appropriate to WBSN by evaluating its performance by simulation.
