The optical characteristics of a terahertz (THz) antenna-coupled bolometer (ACB) detector were evaluated using a pulsed quantum cascade laser (QCL) and radiation blackbody sources. We investigated a method for measuring the responsivity and noise-equivalent power (NEP) of the THz detector using two different types of light sources. When using a QCL source with a frequency of 3 THz, the average responsivity of 24 devices was $1.44{\times}10^3V/W$ and the average NEP of those devices was $3.33{\times}10^{-9}W/{\surd}Hz$. The average responsivity and NEP as measured by blackbody source were $1.79{\times}10^5V/W$ and $6.51{\times}10^{-11}W/{\surd}Hz$, respectively, with the measured values varying depending on the light source. This was because the output power of each light source was different, with the laser source being driven by a pulse type wave and the blackbody source being driven by a continuous wave. The power input to the THz sensor was also different. Futhermore, the responsivity and NEP values measured using band pass filter (BPF) were similar to those measured when using only THz windows. It was found that ACB sensor responds normally in the THz region to both the laser and the blackbody source, and the method was confirmed to effectively evaluate the characteristics of the THz sensor.

무선센서 네트워크(WSNs)는 일반적으로 수많은 센서노드들이 배치되어 데이터를 전송하며, 불필요한 데이터 전송으로 인해 에너지 낭비를 초래한다. 기존의 연구들은 주로 에너지 소모문제를 해결하는데 집중되었다. 하지만 실시간으로 정보전송이 필요한 어플리케이션에 대해서는 지연 보장 역시 고려되어야 한다. 본 논문은 생체시스템을 모방하여 무선센서망에서 에너지의 소모와 연시간을 줄이기 위한 BISA(Bio-inspired Scheduling Algorithm)를 제안한다. BISA는 에너지 효율성이 높은 라우팅경로를 탐색하고 다중채널을 이용해 데이터 전송경로를 다중화함으로써 데이터 전송을 위한 에너지소모와 지연시간을 최소화한다. 실험결과를 통해 제안한 알고리즘의 기존방식 보다 적은 에너지를 사용하며 동시에 요구지연 시간을 보장함을 확인한다.

정보 콘텐츠 기술의 발달로 인하여 모든 정보들이 데이터베이스화 되어가고 있다. 하지만 아직 가축의 생체정보의 데이터베이스 구축은 생체정보의 수집단계의 어려움으로 그 발전이 미약하다. 본 논문은 젖소의 생체정보를 수집 관리하기 위하여 지그비 RF(Radio frequency)통신을 이용한 가축의 생체정보의 수집을 통해 젖소들의 생체상태를 센싱 할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하였고 이를 데이터베이스 구축에 활용하기 위한 논문이다. 센싱 시스템은 8Bit 마이크로 컨트롤러와 기울기센서, 온도센서, RF 모듈로 구성되었다.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of inertial navigation system (INS) / global positioning system (GPS) sensor fusion for agricultural vehicle navigation. An extended Kalman filter algorithm was adopted for INS/GPS sensor fusion in an integrated mode, and the vehicle dynamic model was used instead of the navigation state error model. The INS/GPS system was consisted of a low-cost gyroscope, an odometer and a GPS receiver, and its performance was tested through computer simulations. When measurement noises of GPS receiver were 10, 1.0, 0.5, and 0.2 m ($1{\sigma}$), RMS position and heading errors of INS/GPS system at 5 m/s straight path were remarkably reduced with 10%, 35%, 40%, and 60% of those obtained from the GPS receiver, respectively. The decrease of position and heading errors by using INS/GPS rather than stand-alone GPS can provide more stable steering of agricultural equipments. Therefore, the low-cost INS/GPS system using the extended Kalman filter algorithm may enable the self-autonomous navigation to meet required performance like stable steering or more less position errors even in slow-speed operation.

This study was performed to design and construct a digital soil shear stress sensor in order to replace the conventional devices for measuring soil shear property. The developed digital shear stress measuring device can store measured data with GPS position information as a vector format into a computer. Based on the experiments at various field conditions, the measuring characteristic of the device was quite similar to that of a conventional device, SR-2 that has been a major tool to measure the soil shear property. It was concluded that the digital shear stress measuring device was an effective and comprehensive sensor for measuring soil shear property.

This paper addresses the implementation of an on-device AI-based metal detection system using a Magneto-Impedance Sensor. Performing calculations on the AI device itself is essential, especially for unmanned aerial vehicles such as drones, where communication capabilities may be limited. Consequently, a system capable of analyzing data directly on the device is required. We propose a lightweight gated recurrent unit (GRU) model that can be operated on a drone. Additionally, we have implemented a real-time detection system on a CPU embedded system. The signals obtained from the Magneto-Impedance Sensor are processed in real-time by a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B. During the experiment, the drone flew freely at an altitude ranging from 1 to 10 meters in an open area where metal objects were placed. A total of 20,000,000 sequences of experimental data were acquired, with the data split into training, validation, and test sets in an 8:1:1 ratio. The results of the experiment demonstrated an accuracy of 94.5% and an inference time of 9.8 milliseconds. This study indicates that the proposed system is potentially applicable to unmanned metal detection drones.

Label-free detection of biomolecular interactions was performed using BioFET(Biologically sensitive Field-Effect Transistor) and SPR(Surface Plasmon Resonance). Qualitative information on the immobilization of an anti-IgG and antibody-antigen interaction was gained using the SPR analysis system. The BioFET was used to explore the pI value of the protein and to monitor biomolecular interactions which caused an effective charge change at the gate surface resulting in a drain current change. The results show that the BioFET can be a useful monitoring tool for biomolecular interactions and is complimentary to the SPR system.
