센서네트워크에서 효율적인 에너지사용에 관한 클러스터 기반 라우팅 프로토콜이 다양하게 연구되고 있다. 하지만 기존의 클러스터 기반의 라우팅 프로토콜은 클러스터 재구성에 있어 센서 노드들의 불균형적인 에너지 소비문제와 클러스터 헤더를 선정함에 있어 헤더 노드와 싱크 노드가 멀리 떨어져 있을 때 연결이 제대로 이루어지지 않는다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 클러스터의 재분할과 헤더 노드의 멀티 홉 전송방식을 제시한다. 클러스터 재분할은 기존의 클러스터를 소규모의 클러스터로 재분할하는 방식이고, 멀티 홉 전송방식은 헤더 노드들 사이의 중계전송에 관한 방식이다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제시한 라우팅 기법이 균등한 에너지 소비와 에너지 효율성에 있어서 기존의 라우팅 기법보다 우수함을 보인다.

Flying ad-hoc networks (FANETs) is a vibrant research area nowadays. This type of network ranges from various military and civilian applications. FANET is formed by micro and macro UAVs. Among many other problems, there are two main issues in FANET. Limited energy and high mobility of FANET nodes effect the flight time and routing directly. Clustering is a remedy to handle these types of problems. In this paper, an efficient clustering technique is proposed to handle routing and energy problems. Transmission range of FANET nodes is dynamically tuned accordingly as per their operational requirement. By optimizing the transmission range packet loss ratio (PLR) is minimized and link quality is improved which leads towards reduced energy consumption. To elect optimal cluster heads (CHs) based on their fitness we use k-means. Selection of optimal CHs reduce the routing overhead and improves energy consumption. Our proposed scheme outclasses the existing state-of-the-art techniques, ACO based CACONET and PSO based CLPSO, in terms of energy consumption and cluster building time.

This paper presents a novel concept of wave energy converter for electric generation from the ocean wave energy. In this paper, a Multi-Point Absorbing Wave Energy Converter, shortened as MPAWEC by using Secondary Control Hydrostatic Transmission (SCHST) was proposed. The power take-off (PTO) system in the proposed MPAWEC includes multi heaving buoys to drive hydraulic pumps placed at different points. The application of SCHST in MPAWEC gives some advantages, such as longevity of hydraulic components; more energy is harvested; the variation of the pressure in the accumulator limited; therefore the accumulator volume is reduced and the output speed is more stable, etc. A PID controller was designed for speed control of the hydraulic motor. The simulation results indicated that the speed of the generator was ensured with the relative error as 0.67%; the efficiency of the proposed system was 71.4%.

Configuring optimization of wireless sensor networks, which can improve the network performance such as utilization efficiency and network lifetime with minimal energy, has received considerable attention in recent years. In this paper, a cross layer optimal approach is proposed for multi-source linear network and grid network under Rayleigh block-fading channels, which not only achieves an optimal utility but also guarantees the end-to-end reliability. Specifically, in this paper, we first strictly present the optimization method for optimal nodal number $N^*$, nodal placement $d^*$ and nodal transmission structure $p^*$ under constraints of minimum total energy consumption and minimum unit data transmitting energy consumption. Then, based on the facts that nodal energy consumption is higher for those nodes near the sink and those nodes far from the sink may have remaining energy, a cross layer optimal design is proposed to achieve balanced network energy consumption. The design adopts lower reliability requirement and shorter transmission distance for nodes near the sink, and adopts higher reliability requirement and farther transmission distance for nodes far from the sink, the solvability conditions is given as well. In the end, both the theoretical analysis and experimental results for performance evaluation show that the optimal design indeed can improve the network lifetime by 20-50%, network utility by 20% and guarantee desire level of reliability.

배터리 기반 센서 시스템과 달리 태양 에너지 기반 센서 시스템에서는 정확한 양은 알 수 없지만 적어도 주기적으로 에너지가 수집될 수 있으므로 에너지 사용의 최소화가 목표가 아니라 에너지 사용의 최적화가 목표가 된다. 본 연구에서는 네트워크 토폴로지 최적화를 목적으로 태양 에너지 수집형 센서 시스템에서 잔존 에너지양에 따른 3단계 전송 파워 조절 알고리즘을 제안한다. 아울러 이 기법이 전체 센서 네트워크의 성능에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 실험을 통하여 살펴보았는데, 대부분의 지표에서 전송 파워를 고정한 기법들 보다 우수한 성능을 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

In this paper, marginal loss factors are calculated for 12 load cases that represent the impact of marginal network tosses on nodal prices at the transmission network connection points at which generators are located. Based on comparison analysis of marginal loss factors on generation energy resources, we can find the characteristics of each plants according to its energy resources in KOREA.

Nowadays, the demand of energy saving is increasing more and more while the natural resources have been exhausted. Besides, the emission gas caused by vehicles has been being a serious environment problem. Therefore, many studies have been carried out, especially focusing on braking energy regeneration, in order to save energy as well as reduce emission of mobile vehicles. In this paper, we propose a closed-loop hydrostatic transmission for braking energy regeneration with two configurations to reduce the energy consumption by recovering the braking energy. The effectiveness of the proposed system was verified by simulation. The simulation results indicated that the pressure coupling configuration gave better performance in comparison to flow coupling configuration about 40.8%, 61.7% and 53.8% reduction of fuel consumption in 10 mode, 10 mode modified profile and highway schedules, respectively.

Energy consumption is an important index in mobile ad hoc networks. Data packet transmission increases among nodes, particularly in big data communication. However, nodes may be unable to transmit data packets because of energy over-consumption. Consequently, information may be lost and network communication may block. While opportunistic network is a kind of mobile ad hoc networks, researchers do not focus on energy consumption in opportunistic network communication. This study proposed an effective sensor energy supply scheme that can be applied in opportunistic networks. This scheme considers nodes sensor requests and communication model. In this scheme, nodes do not only accomplish energy supply in communication, but also extend communication time in opportunistic networks. Compared with the Spray and Wait algorithm and the Binary Spray and Wait algorithm in simulations, the proposed scheme extends communication time, increases data packet transmission, and accomplishes energy supply among nodes.

이 논문에서는 무선 센서네트워크의 한정된 에너지 사용의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 노드 적응적 데이터 병합 및 전달 기법을 제안한다. 기존 무선 센서네트워크 환경에서 에너지 효율을 위해 사용되었던 계층적 구조 방식의 LEACH나 TEEN 방식을 기반으로 제안된 방법은 모든 라운드에서 전송 데이터가 있는 멤버노드(Member Node:MN)이나 전송 데이터가 없는 MN 모두에게 프레임을 할당하여 전송데이터가 없는 MN도 활성상태 모드(Active Mode)로 에너지를 소비한다. 또한 수집 데이터가 있다해도 이전 전송 데이터와 동일한 경우에도 데이터를 전송함으로 MN의 에너지 소비를 가중시킨다. 대부분의 계층적 방식은 LEACH를 기반으로 제안되었다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 센싱 데이터가 있는 MN에게만 프레임을 할당한다. 또한 센싱 데이터가 있는 MN 중 이전 전송 데이터와 통일한 데이터를 센싱한 MN는 휴지상태 모드(Sleep Mode)로 전환하여 중복 데이터 전송을 피해 클러스터헤드(Cluster Head:CH)의 데이터전송 에너지를 감소하고 CH에서 데이터 병합 에너지를 감소하여 네트워크 전체 에너지 효율성을 제공한다.

The optimization of a transmission type bremsstrahlung conversion target was carried out with Monte Carlo code FLUKA for intense pulsed electron beams with electron energy of several hundred keV for maximum photon fluence. The photon emission intensity from electrons with energy ranging from 300 keV to 1 MeV on tungsten, tantalum and molybdenum targets was calculated with varied target thicknesses. The research revealed that higher target material element number and electron energy leads to increased photon fluence. For a certain target material, the target thickness with maximum photon emission fluence exhibits a linear relationship with the electron energy. With certain electron energy and target material, the thickness of the target plays a dominant role in increasing the transmission photon intensity, with small target thickness the photon flux is largely restricted by low energy loss of electrons for photon generation while thick targets may impose extra absorption for the generated photons. The spatial distribution of bremsstrahlung photon density was analyzed and the optimal target thicknesses for maximum bremsstrahlung photon fluence were derived versus electron energy on three target materials for a quick determination of optimal target design.
