  • 애드 혹 네트워크(MANET: Mobile Ad hoc NETworks)는 기본적인 내부구조(infrastructure) 없이 노드들만으로 네트워크 망을 구성한다. 경로 탐색 정책으로 리액티브(reactive) 방식과 프로액티브(proactive) 방식이 있는데, 전통적으로 리액티브 방식의 성능이 더 좋은 것으로 평가된다. 그리고 두가지 방식의 장점을 취합한 하이브리드(hybrid) 방식의 클러스터 토폴로지(cluster topology) 도입에 관한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그 중, HCR(Hybrid Cluster Routing)이 제안되었는데, 이는 프로액티브 방식에 보다 중심을 둔 기법이다. HCR 은 리액티브 방식 경로 탐색 방법인 플라딩(flooding)의 탐색 지역을 한정된 범위로 제한할 수 있으나, 프로액티브 방식의 전체 네트워크 구성 정보 유지에 따른 막대한 오버헤드를 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 오버헤드를 줄이기 위해, 클러스터 내부 경로 탐색 기법인 MICF(Maginot path based Intra Cluster Flooding)를 제안한다. MICF 는 HCR 을 개선한 FSRS(First Search and Reverse Setting) 기반의 기법으로서, 클러스터 내부의 마지노 패스(maginot path)를 기준으로 경로 탐색 지역을 제한한다. MICF 는 게이트웨이(gateway) 간 최단 거리가 항상 클러스터 헤드(cluster head)를 중점으로 원의 내각 지역에 존재함을 바탕으로 하며, 최단 경로의 보장과 플라딩 지역 제한을 동시에 만족한다. 실험 결과, MICF 는 FSRS 기반의 기존 클러스터 내부 플라딩 방식보다 총 에너지의 7.79%만큼 더 에너지를 보존하였다. 결론적으로, MICF 역시 기존의 방식보다 에너지를 더 효율적으로 사용할 수 있으며, 마지노패스 설정과 이를 기반으로 한 제어 과정에 추가적인 오버헤드가 발생하지 않는다. 그리고 플라딩 면적이 작을수록 오버헤드가 줄어들게 됨을 알 수 있다.

  • In this paper, we propose a methodology for estimating the optimal traversable destination from the location-based information of the object recognized by the mobile robot to perform the object delivery service. The location estimation process is to apply the generalized Voronoi graph to the grid map to create an initial topology map composed of nodes and links, recognize objects and extract location data using RGB-D sensors, and collect the shape and distance information of obstacles. Then, by applying the hybrid approach that combines the center of gravity and thinning method, the optimal moving position for the service robot to perform the task of grabbing is estimated. And then, the optimal node information for the robot's work destination is updated by comparing the geometric distance between the estimated position and the existing node according to the node update rule.

  • WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communication) is a technology that enables browser-to-browser communication. Therefore, a signalling mechanism must be negotiated to create a connection between peers. The main aim of this paper is to create and implement a WebRTC hybrid signalling mechanism named (WebNSM) for video conferencing based on the Socket.io (API) mechanism. WebNSM was designed over different topologies such as simplex, star and mesh. Therefore it offers several communications at the same time such as one-to-one (unidirectional/bidirectional), one-to-many (unidirectional) and many-to-many (bi-directional) without any downloading or installation. In this paper, WebRTC video conferencing was accomplished via LAN and WAN networks, including the evaluation of resources in WebRTC like bandwidth consumption, CPU performance, memory usage, Quality of Experience (QoE) and maximum links and RTPs calculation. This paper presents a novel signalling mechanism among different users, devices and networks to offer video conferencing using various topologies at the same time, as well as other typical features such as using the same server, determining room initiator, keeping the communication active even if the initiator or another peer leaves, etc. This scenario highlights the limitations of CPU performance, bandwidth consumption and the use of different topologies for WebRTC video conferencing.

  • In this paper, numerical calculations are performed to analyze the unsteady flow of NACA airfoil sections. In order to ease the flow computation for the fluid region changing in time, improve the quality of solution and simplify the grid generation for the oscillating foil flow, the computational method adopts a moving and deforming mesh with the multi-block grid topology. The multi-block, structured-unstructured hybrid grid is generated using the commercial meshing software Gridgen V15. The MDM (Moving & Deforming Mesh) and the UDF (User Define function) function of FLUENT 6 are adopted for computing turbulent flows of the foil in pitching motion. Computed unsteady lift and drag forces are compared with experimental data. in general, the characteristics of unsteady lift and drag of the experiments are reproduced well in the numerical analysis.

  • In order to prevent loss of communication packets and drop of transmission speed owing to the network fault occurrence, it should be considered network redundancy. That is why a messages of IED GOOSE is the critical signal in charge of protection and control of the substation. So most of users implement the substation automation system with Hybrid network topology ant IED supporting double ethernet ports. Because IEC 61850 GOOSE conformance test is limited in the functional test, this paper suggests how to test the performance of IED GOOSE transmission considering Network redundancy, and describes the analysis of an example test on real IEDs and how to impact the IED GOOSE performance to the substation automation system.

  • Conventional boost-full-bridge and boost-hybrid-bridge two-stage inverters are widely applied in order to adapt to the wide dc input voltage range of photovoltaic arrays. However, the efficiency of the conventional topology is not fully optimized because additional switching losses are generated in the voltage conversion so that the input voltage rises and then falls. Moreover, the electrolytic capacitors in a dc-link lead to a larger volume combined with increases in both weight and cost. This paper proposes a higher efficiency inverter with time-sharing synchronous modulation. The energy transmission paths, wheeling branches and switching losses for the high-frequency switches are optimized so that the overall efficiency is greatly improved. In this paper, a contrastive analysis of the component losses for the conventional and proposed inverter topologies is carried out in MATLAB. Finally, the high-efficiency under different switching frequencies and different input voltages is verified by a 3 kW prototype.

  • Large numbers of submarine pipelines are laid as the world now is attaching great importance to offshore oil exploitation. Free spanning of submarine pipelines may be caused by seabed unevenness, change of topology, artificial supports, etc. By combining Iwan's wake oscillator model with the differential equation which describes the vibration behavior of free-span submarine pipelines, the pipe-fluid coupling equation is developed and solved in order to study the effect of both internal and external fluid on the vibration behavior of free-span submarine pipelines. Through generalized integral transform technique (GITT), the governing equation describing the transverse displacement is transformed into a system of second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) in temporal variable, eliminating the spatial variable. The MATHEMATICA built-in function NDSolve is then used to numerically solve the transformed ODE system. The good convergence of the eigenfunction expansions proved that this method is applicable for predicting the dynamic response of free-span pipelines subjected to both internal flow and external current.

  • In this paper, we proposed a new method, the CACH(Context-aware Clustering Hierarchy) algorithm in Mobile Ad-hoc Network(MANET) systems. The proposed CACH algorithm based on hybrid and clustering protocol that provide the reliable monitoring and control of a variety of environments for remote place. To improve the routing protocol in MANET, energy efficient routing protocol would be required as well as considering the mobility would be needed. The proposed analysis could help in defining the optimum depth of hierarchy architecture CACH utilize. Also, the proposed CACH could be used localized condition to enable adaptation and robustness for dynamic network topology protocol and this provide that our hierarchy to be resilient. As a result, our simulation results would show that a new method for CACH could find energy efficient depth of hierarchy of a cluster.

  • Robotic sensor network (RSN) contains mobile sensors and robots providing feasible solution for many multi-agent applications. One of the most critical issues in RSN and its application is how to effectively assign tasks. This paper presents a novel connectivity preserving hybrid task allocation strategy to answer the question particularly for RSN. Firstly, we model the task allocation in RSN to distinguish the discovering and allocating processes. Secondly, a fully distributed simple Task-oriented Unoccupied Neighbor Algorithm, named TUNA, is developed to allocate tasks with only partial view of the network topology. A connectivity controller is finally developed and integrated into the strategy to guarantee the global connectivity of entire RSN, which is critical to most RSN applications. The correctness, efficiency and scalability of TUNA are proved with both theoretical analysis and experimental simulations. The evaluation results show that TUNA can effectively assign tasks to mobile robots with the requirements of only a few messages and small movements of mobile agents.

  • Given their structural arrangement, photovoltaic (PV) modules exhibit parasitic capacitance, which creates a path for high-frequency current during zero-state switching of the converter in transformerless systems. This current has to be limited to ensure safety and electromagnetic compatibility. Many solutions that can minimize or completely avoid this phenomenon, are available. However, most of these solutions are patented because they rely on specific and often complex converter topologies. This study aims to solve this problem by introducing a solution based on a classic converter topology with an appropriate modulation technique and passive filtering. A 5.5 kW single-phase residential PV system that consists of DC-DC boost stage and DC-AC H-bridge converter is considered. Control schemes for both converter stages are presented. An overview of existing modulation techniques for H-bridge converter is provided, and a modification of hybrid modulation is proposed. A system prototype is built for the experimental verification. As shown in the study, with simple filtering and proper selection of switching states, achieving low leakage current level is possible while maintaining high converter efficiency and required energy quality.
