In this study, a real-time fall detection system based on a smartphone equipped with three-axis accelerometer and magnetometer was proposed and evaluated. The proposed system provides a service that detects falls in real time, triggers alarm sound, and sends emergency SMS(Short Message Service) if the alarm is not deactivated within a predefined time. When both of the acceleration magnitude and angle displacement of the smartphone attached to waist belt are greater than predefined thresholds, it is detected as a fall. The proposed system was evaluated against activities of daily living(walking, jogging, sitting down, standing up, ascending stairs, and descending stairs) and unintended falls induced by a proprietary pneumatic-powered mattress. With the thresholds of acceleration magnitude 1.7g and angle displacement $80^{\circ}$, it showed 96.5% accuracy to detect the falls while all the activities of daily living were not detected as fall.

In this paper, a fault section detection method is proposed for ungrounded system in the case of a single line-to-ground fault. A conventional method is used for faulted feeder selection according to the angular relationship between zero-sequence currents of the feeders and zero-sequence voltage of the system. Fault section detection is based on the comparison of phase angle of zero-sequence current. Proposed method has been testified in a demo system by Matlab/Simulink simulations. Based on Distribution Automation System(DAS), Feeder Remote Terminal Unit(FRTU) is used to collect those necessary data, at present a demo system is under developing using Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) in IEC61850 standard.

There are many ways to perform face recognition. The first step of face recognition is the face detection step. If the face is not found in the first step, the face recognition fails. Face detection research has many difficulties because it can be varied according to face size change, left and right rotation and up and down rotation, side face and front face, facial expression, and light condition. In this study, facial features are extracted and the extracted features are geometrically reconstructed in order to improve face recognition rate in extracted face region. Also, it is aimed to adjust face angle using reconstructed facial feature vector, and to improve recognition rate for each face angle. In the recognition attempt using the result after the geometric reconstruction, both the up and down and the left and right facial angles have improved recognition performance.

변화탐지는 서로 다른 시점에 촬영된 영상에서 일어난 변화를 관측하는 기술로 위성영상을 활용한 원격탐사 분야에서 중요한 기술이다. 변화탐지 기법 중 하나인 무감독 변화탐지 기법은 단시간 내에 변화지역을 추출할 수 있는 장점을 지니지만, 임계값을 통해 변화된 지역을 이진영상으로 나타내기 때문에 토지피복변화를 파악하기 어렵다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 무감독 변화탐지의 단점을 보완하기 위해 공간정보를 기반으로 생성된 격자 포인트를 이용하여 위성영상의 토지피복변화 및 정확도 평가를 수행하였다. 변화탐지 알고리즘은 Spectral Angle Mapper(SAM)를 사용하였으며, 김제자유무역지역 일대를 촬영한 KOMPSAT-3A(K3A) 위성영상을 대상으로 진행하였다. 변화탐지결과는 자동 임계값 추출 알고리즘들 중 Otsu, Kittler, Kapur, Tsai 방법을 사용하여 이진영상으로 나타냈다. 또한, 변화탐지에 사용된 두 시점의 위성영상은 계절에 의한 식생 변화가 존재하기 때문에 확률밀도함수를 통한 Differenced Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(dNDVI)의 임계값으로 계절적 영향을 받는 지역을 제거하였다. 연구 결과, 자동 임계값 추출 알고리즘 중 Otsu와 Kapur의 정확도가 58.16%로 나타났고, dNDVI를 통해 계절적 영향을 제거하였을 때 85.47%로 정확도가 개선된 결과를 보였다. 본 연구결과를 기반으로 생성된 알고리즘은 무감독 변화탐지를 수행할 때 정확도 평가와 토지피복변화를 정량적으로 파악하여 기존의 단점을 보완할 수 있다고 판단된다.

The purpose of this study is to develop a practical gait-event detection system which is necessary for the FES (functional electrical stimulation) control of locomotion in paralyzed patients. The system is comprised of a sensor board and an event recognition algorithm. We focused on the practicality improvement of the system through 1) using accelerometer to get the angle of shank and dispensing with the foot-switches having limitation in indoor or barefoot usage and 2) using a rule-base instead of threshold to determine the heel-off/heel-strike events corresponding the stimulation on/off timing. The sensor signals are transmitted through RF communication and gait-events was detected using the peaks in shank angle. The system could detect two critical gait-events in all five paralyzed patients. The standard deviation of the gait events time from the peaks were smaller when 1.5Hz cutoff frequency was used in the derivation of the shank angle from the acceleration signals.

본 논문에서는 네트워크에 분포된 센서 노드의 밀도와 노드의 제한된 에너지를 고려하여 데이터를 전송하는 Restricted Angle-control Flooding기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 특히 목적지에 가까워질수록 데이터 전송에 참여하는 노드의 수를 효율적으로 줄임으로써 불필요한 Broadcast 메시지를 제한하여 에너지 효율성을 높일 수 있으며, 노드의 Failure나 네트워크의 장애로 인한 Hole 발생시 Hole의 판단 기준에 따라 기존의 Flooding 방식 혹은 Forwarding area를 넓히는 Hole-Detection을 통하여 메시지 전송의 효율성을 높인다. 성능 평가를 통하여 노드 수가 증가할수록 기존의 Flooding에 비하여 메시지 전송시 소비되는 노드의 에너지와 전송률, 네트워크의 Lifetime면에서 우수하다는 것을 보여준다.

In this paper, an algorithm is suggested to detect an offset angle of the absolute rotor position sensor after the initial assembly of a PMSG. Unlike previous studies in a stationary state, this one is not designed to detect an electrical angle but rather the absolute position of the rotor is detected while operating the generator. Also,a position sensor, current sensors and voltage sensor were used to ensure reliability. This technique completes the detection of the sensor offset in two steps. In the first step, a zero-crossing of the EMF is measured using a voltage sensor to detect the electrical angle offset when the alternator is actuated by the engine. In the second step, a high frequency current is injected along the d-axis on-line during the control of the generation, eventually to obtain the inductance using a DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform), and then to ultimately extract the final electrical angle offset through the comparison of the inductance magnitude. The suggested algorithm was validated with PSIM simulation and, furthermore, was tested with actual experiments on a dynamometer.

In this paper, we propose a fault diagnosis method based on Park's Vector Approach using the Euler's theorem. If we interpreted it as Euler's theorem, it is possible to easily find the phase angle difference between the healthy condition and the fault condition. And, we analyzed the variation of the phase angle and performed the diagnostic method of the induction motor using feature vectors that were obtained by using a Fourier transform. The analysis of time and speed variation of the motor was performed and, as a result, we could find more soft variations than rough variations. In particular, the analysis of the distortion through each phase shows that two-turn and four-turn shorted motors are linearly separable. In this experiment, we know that the maximum breakdown threshold value for determining steady-state fault detection is 49.0788. Simulation and experimental results show the more detectable than conventional method.

Purpose : The parameters used in architectural analysis are muscle thickness, fascicle length, pennation angle, etc. Pennation angle is an important muscle characteristic that plays a significant role in determining a fascicle's force contribution to movement. Ultrasonography has been widely used to obtain the image for measurement of a pennation angle since it is non-invasive and real-time. However, manual assessment in ultrasonographic images is time-consuming and subjective, making it difficult for using in muscle function analysis. Thus, in this study, I proposed an automatic method to extract the pennation angle from the ultrasonographic images of gastrocnemius muscle. Method : The ultrasonographic image obtained from 10 healthy participants's gastrocnemius muscle using for developed automatic measuring program. Automatic measuring program algorithm consists with preprocessing, line detection, line classification, and angle calculation. The resulting image was then used to detect the fascicles and aponeuroses for calculating the pennation angle with the consideration of their distribution in ultrasonographic image. Result : The proposed automatic measurement program showed the stable repeatability of pennation angle calculation. Conclusion : This study demonstrated that the proposed method was able to automatically measure the pennation angle of gastrocnemius, which made it possible to easily and reliably investigate pennation angle more.

In this paper, a new indoor positioning system based on incident angle measurement of infrared sensor has been suggested. Though there have been various researches on indoor positioning systems using vision sensor or ultrasonic sensor, they have not only advantages, but also disadvantages. In a new positioning system, there are three infrared emitters on fixed known positions. An incident angle sensor measures the angle differences between each two emitters. Mathematical problems to determine the position with angle differences and position information of emitters has been solved. Simulations and experiments have been implemented to show the performance of this new positioning system. The results of simulation were good. Since there existed problems of noise and signal conditioning, the experimented has been implemented in limited area. But the results were acceptable. This new positioning method can be applied to any indoor systems that need absolute position information.
