In this paper, the narrow-band characteristic, which is the disadvantage of the existing the PD sensor, was improved by transforming the sensor shape into a trapezoidal shape to improve the characteristics of the dipole-shaped conventional PD(Patial Discharge) sensor. In addition, by applying a cavity structure, which is a structure that can fundamentally block the electromagnetic wave signal from the outside as it is used for an external sensor, it is a partial discharge sensor that takes advantage of the structural advantages of low cost and convenience of installation. As a result of the experiment, it was shown that there is a broadband characteristic of about 70.5%(1.59~3.32GHz) at the center frequency of 2.45GHz, and the broadband characteristic was confirmed.

An electronic nose system is an instrument designed far mimicking human olfactory system. It consists generally of gas (odor) sensor array corresponding to olfactory receptors of human nose and artificial neural network pattern recognition technique based on human biological odor sensing mechanism. Considerable attempts to develop the electronic nose system have been made far applications in the fields of floods, drinks, cosmetics, environment monitoring, etc. A portable electronic nose system has been fabricated by using oxide semiconductor gas sensor array and pattern recognition technique such as principal component analysis (PCA) and back propagation artificial neural network The sensor array consists of six thick film gas sensors whose sensing layers are Pd-doped WO$_3$ Pt-doped SnO$_2$ TiO$_2$-Sb$_2$O$_3$-Pd-doped SnO$_2$ TiO$_2$-Sb$_2$O$_{5}$-Pd-doped SnO$_2$+Pd filter layer, A1$_2$O$_3$-doped ZnO and PdCl$_2$-doped SnO$_2$. As an application the system has been used to identify CO/HC car exhausting gases and the identification has been successfully demonstrated.d.

A small electronic nose (E-Nose) system has been developed using an 8-channel vapor detection array and personal digital assistant (PDA). The sensor array chip, integrated on a single microheater-embedded polyimide substrate, was made of carbon black-polymer composites with different kinds of polymers and plasticizers. We have successfully classified various volatile organic compounds such as methanol, ethanol, i-propanol, benzene, toluene, n-hexane, n-heptane, and c-hexane with the aid of the sensor array chip, and have evaluated the resolution factors among them, quantitatively. To achieve a PDA-based E-Nose system, we have also elaborated small sensor-interrogating circuits, simple vapor delivery components, and data acquisition and processing programs. As preliminary results show, the miniaturized E-Nose system has demonstrated the identification of essential oils extracted from mint, lavender, and eucalyptus plants.

The sensor at liquid nitrogen temperature showed the increase of electrical resistance by applying magnetic field. Actually, the voltage drop across the sensor was changed from zero to a value more than $100\;{\mu}V$ by the applied magnetic field. The change of electrical resistance depended on magnetic field. The sensitivity of this sensor was $2.9\;{\Omega}/T$. The sensing limit was about $1.5{\times}10^{-5}\;T$. The increase of electrical resistance by the magnetic field was ascribed to a modification of the Josephson junctions due to the penetrating magnetic flux into the superconducting material. Considering the observed properties of the superconductor with trapped magnetic flux, a magnetic sensor was fabricated to detect simultaneously both the intensity and the direction of the magnetic field.

This paper proposes the design and performance evaluation of a marine engine fault detection system using a proximity sensor for marine engine. Non-linearity is greatly reduced by using the sensor without increasing the response time by applying the CANopen protocol. The CANopen protocol enables the sensor to send initial values and measurement data. The marine engine fault detection system measures crankshaft deflection and the bottom dead center of the crosshead in real-time, which maintains stability and prevents the serious breakdown of the marine engine by use of an interlocking alarm monitoring system.

Magnetic field in magnetic bearings is the physical medium to realize magnetic levitation, the distribution of the magnetic field determines the operating performance of magnetic bearings. In this paper, a thin-slice Fiber Bragg Grating-Giant Magnetostrictive Material magnetic sensor used for the air gap of magnetic bearings was proposed and tested in the condition of dynamic magnetic field. The static property of the sensor was calibrated and a polynomial curve was fitted to describe the performance of the sensor. Measurement of dynamic magnetic field with different frequencies in magnetic bearings was implemented. Comparing with the finite element simulations, the results showed the DC component of the magnetic field was detected by the sensor and error was less than 5.87%.

The most Important thing in Sensor Network Design is a Energy Efficiency. Limited sources of Sensor Mote tan occur merging of Protocol. In this paper, we proposed Cross Layer Protocol for Energy Efficienty. The proposed protocol can increase the network life time using multi hop transmission. sensor network should use multi hop communication and small radius because radio in wireless communication is the most spendable thing in sensor network.

This paper proposes a new method of sensor fusion of an ultrasonic sensor and a vision sensor at the sensor level. In general vision system, the vision system finds edges of objects. And in general ultrasonic system, the ultrasonic system finds absolute distance between robot and object. So, the method integrates data of two different types. The system makes perfect output for robot control in the end. But this paper does not propose only integrating a different kind of data but also fusion information which receives from different kind of sensors. This method has advantages which can simply embody algorithm and can control robot on real time.

This paper proposes a new sensor circuit using a 32 nm carbon nanotube FET (CNFET) technology for artificial skin. For future robotic and prosthetic applications, it is essential to develop a robust and low power artificial skin for detecting the environment through touch. Therefore, a sensor circuit for the artificial skin also has to be developed to detect the sensor signals and convert them into digital bits. The artificial skin sensor is based on a mesh of sensors consisting of a nxn matrix using CNFET, and the sensor outputs are connected to a current monitoring circuit proposed as the sensor circuit. The proposed sensor provides pressure measurements and shape information about pressure distribution.

The vehicle dynamic control system needs to detect the yaw rate of vehicle and a yaw rate sensor is required as a central component. Therefore, A sensor on the basic of the "tuning fork method" for automotive controls is being developed. The sensor was fabricated by the surface micro machining process to miniaturize its size. The sensor output offset is ${\pm}0.37^{\circ}/sec$ in the room temperature. The resonance frequency of the fabricated yaw rate sensor is measured to 5.29kHz for the drive mode. Tests of the sensor demonstrate that its performance is equivalent to that required for implementation of a yaw control system. Vehicle handling and safety are substantially improved using the sensor to implement yaw control.
