In addition to complying with access standards for facilities that require infection control (operating rooms, delivery rooms, intensive care units, etc.) in accordance with the 2019 Medical Care Act Enforcement Regulations, entry, exit, contact information, etc. for entry and exit, the criteria for entering and exiting special rooms of medical institutions have been revised so that records of facts are kept for one year. However, even now, the inconvenience continues due to the fact that such contents are created by hand or due to errors. For this reason, this study designed and implemented a system that provides automatic opening, closing, and accessing record storage functions for authorized users using IoT devices and UWB technology, and we expected that the convenience of the visitors and systemized access control will be possible.

Korean petroglyphs have been found over a lot of ruins through nation-wide regions including Daegok-ri Bangudae and Cheonjeon-ri in Ulsan. In this paper, we present an information system for Korean petroglyph ruins named KPetro which supports the dedicated camera application and the timeline service. The system provides the services for searching and updating information in various ways over the primary database constructed with the data on petroglyph ruins, which are collected by the Bangudae Petroglyph Institute. In addition, through the camera application developed for the system, users can easily add photos to the appropriate petroglyph ruin according to the GPS information of the location where those photos are taken. Also, the system provides the timeline service showing the photos for a specific petroglyph ruins in order of shooting time. To support both mobile and desktop environments, KPetro provides its functions in a web browser using the HTML5 standard technology and the JavaScript language, enabling the system to be adaptable to various user devices and extendable for its functionalities.

In this paper, a 1,200 V Si-based IGBT used in electric vehicles and new energy industries was designed. A field stop IGBT with a separate gate structure, which is the proposed structure, was designed to change trench depth and split gate width variables. Then, the general trench structure and electrical characteristics were compared and analyzed. As a result of conducting the trench depth experiment, it was confirmed that the breakdown voltage was the highest at 6 ㎛, and the on-state voltage drop was the lowest at 3.5 ㎛. In the separate gate width experiment, it was confirmed that the breakdown voltage decreased as the variable increased, and the on-state voltage drop increased. Therefore, it may be seen that it is preferable not to change the width of the separate gate. In addition, experiments show that there is no difference in on-state voltage drop compared to a structure in which a general field stop structure has a separate gate structure. In other words, it is determined that adding a dummy gate with a separate gate structure to the active cell will significantly improve the on-voltage drop characteristics, while confirming that the on-voltage drop does not change, and while having excellent characteristics in terms of breakdown voltage.

Recently, location information services are gradually expanding due to the development of information and communication technology. RSSI is widely used to extract indoor and outdoor locations. The indoor and outdoor location estimation methods using RSSI are less accurate due to the influence of radio wave paths, interference, and surrounding wireless devices. In order to improve this problem, a distance estimation method that takes into account the wireless propagation environment is necessary. Therefore, in this study, we propose a distance estimation algorithm that takes into account the radio wave environment. The proposed method estimates the distance by learning RSSI input and output considering the RBF neural network and the propagation environment. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, the performance of estimating the location of the receiver within a range of up to 55[m] using a BLE beacon transmitter and receiver was compared with the average filter and Kalman filter. As a result, the distance estimation accuracy of the proposed method was 6.7 times higher than that of the average filter and Kalman filter. As shown in the results of this performance evaluation, if the method of this study is applied to location services, more accurate location estimation will be possible.

In modern times, with advances in semiconductor technology such as electronic devices, the need to improve the quality of onboard equipment with advanced electronic parts in automobiles, drones, airplanes, projectiles, and various fields, and reduce the impact of various disturbances on onboard equipment is becoming more important. Vibration control through hardware must be determined to prevent damage and improve quality to equipment operating in various environments such as automobiles, drones, airplanes, and projectiles. This study focuses on the study of vibration damping systems to protect mounted equipment from various disturbances and improve stability. Dynamic characteristics analysis, including compressive stiffness, damping rate, and frequency response, and vibration characteristics in the frequency domain of rubber dampers were identified through FEM analysis to identify the characteristics of rubber dampers. Through these findings, we would like to present the criteria for selecting a suitable rubber damper under various disturbance conditions.

The rapid growth and increasing complexity of modern networks have highlighted the limitations of traditional network architectures. The emergence of SDN (Software-Defined Network) in response to these challenges has changed the existing network environment. The SDN separates the control unit and the data unit, and adjusts the network operation using a centralized controller. However, this structure has also recently caused a huge amount of traffic due to the rapid spread of numerous Internet of Things (IoT) devices, which has not only slowed the transmission speed of the network but also made it difficult to ensure quality of service (QoS). Therefore, this paper proposes a method of load distribution by switching the IP and any server (processor) from the existing data processing scheduling technique, RR (Round-Robin), to mapping when a large amount of data flows in from a specific IP, that is, server overload and data loss.

The effects of annealing temperature on the optical and electrical properties of BZO thin films, grown on glass substrate, have been investigated. Analysis of the XRD shows that regardless of the annealing temperature, all BZO thin films indicate the c-axis orientation. The full width of half maximum (FWHM) decreases from 1.65 to 1.07° as the annealing temperature increases from 400 to 600℃. The average transmittance in the visible light region showed a high value of 85% without significantly affecting the annealing temperature. The results of Hall effect measurements indicate that the carrier concentration and mobility increased and the resistivity decreased as the annealing temperature increased. The resistivity and the carrier concentration of the BZO thin films annealed 600℃ were 9.75×10^-2 Ω·cm and 4.21×10¹⁹ cm^-3 respectively, showing the best value. The optimization of deposition and annealing conditions will certainly make the BZO thin films promising materials for the application to the next generation of optoelectronic devices.
