This paper describes the ubiquitous home network (uHome-net) testbed and LonRF intelligent devices based on LonWorks technology. These devices consist of Neuron Chip, RF transceiver, sensor, and other peripheral components. Using LonRF devices, a home control network can be simplified and most devices can be operated on LonWorks control network. Also, Indoor Positioning System (IPS) that can serve various location based services was implemented in uHome-net. Smart Badge of IPS, that is a special LonRF device, can measure the 3D location of objects in the indoor environment. In the uHome-net testbed, remote control service, cooking help service, wireless remote metering service, baby monitoring service and security ＆ fire prevention service were realized. This research shows the vision of the ubiquitous home network that will be emerged in the near future.

Rendering maps is an essential feature of the user interface component of a location based service (LBS) system. However, a developer may not too much worry about implementing the rendering maps part of his or her system because there are quite a few publicly available libraries that provide all kinds of functions of manipulating maps. Google Maps, Yahoo Map, Naver Map, Daum Map, and so on are example sites that provide those libraries. Rendering drawings is to indoor LBS as rendering maps is to LBS. However, there is no such thing as Google Maps that provides libraries for rendering drawings. This paper introduces a few web services and a library that is useful in developing user interfaces of indoor LBS systems.

실내위치 측위 기술은 스마트기기의 확산으로 인해 다양한 응용서비스에 활용되고 있다. 정밀하게 위치를 측위 하는 것과 더불어 다수 사용자의 위치를 동시에 측위 하는 것은 새로운 문제로 제기되고 있다. 더불어 위치 측위와 동시에 인터넷 서비스를 제공하는 것은 다양한 응용에서 활용하기 위해 필수적이다. 본 논문은 IEEE 802.11az 표준으로 실내위치 측위 시스템을 설계 및 구현함으로써 이러한 두 가지 문제 모두를 해결하고자 한다.

This study presents an ultrasonic location awareness system for the ubiquitous computing with absolute position. The flight time of ultrasonic waves is determined by a period detecting technique which is able to extend the sensing range compared with traditional methods. For location awareness, ultrasonic waves are sent successively from each ultrasonic transmitter and synchronized by radio frequency (RF) signal, where the transmitting part is fixed and the receiving part is movable. To expand the recognizing range, cell matching technique and coded ultrasonic technique are introduced. The experimentation for various distances is accomplished to verify the used period detecting technique of U-SAT system. The positioning accuracy by using cell matching is also verified by finding the locations of settled points and the usability of coded ultrasonic technique is verified. As a result, the possibility of ultrasonic location awareness system for the ubiquitous computing can be discussed as a pseudo-satellite system with low cost, a high update rate, and relatively high precision, in the places where CPS is not available.

Compared to OWR (One-Way Ranging) method that requires precise network time synchronization, TWR (Two-Way Ranging) method has advantages in building an indoor WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) location system with lower cost. However, clock offsets of nodes in WPAN system should be eliminated or compensated to improve location accuracy of the TWR method. Because conventional clock offset elimination methods requires multiple TWR transactions to reduce clock offset, they produce network traffic burden instead. This paper presents a clock offset estimation method that can reduce clock offset error with a single TWR transaction. After relative clock offsets of sensor nodes are estimated, clock offsets of mobile tags are estimated using a single TWR communication. Simulation results show that location accuracy of the proposed method is almost similar to the conventional clock offset elimination method, while its network traffic is about a half of the conventional method.

HSDPA, WiBro, 모바일 디바이스 등의 정보통신 기술의 발전으로 사용자가 컴퓨터나 네트워크를 의식하지 않고 언제 어디서나 네트워크에 접속할 수 있는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경의 구현이 가능해졌다. 이러한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서 사용자의 위치에 따른 특정 정보를 제공하는 위치 기반 서비스(Location Based Service, LBS)의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 관성 측정 장치(Inertial Measurement Unit, IMU)의 오차 보정을 위한 필터 및 알고리즘을 소개하고 실내 측위 보정을 위한 매핑 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 매핑 알고리즘은 지도를 자동으로 인식하여 교차로, 복도, 목적지로 분류하고 현재 위치를 인식하여 잘못된 매핑이 일어나지 않게 하고 사용자의 움직임 이벤트 발생 시 위치 검색의 효율을 높인다. 또한 유동적인 매핑계수를 두어 이동거리와 방향에 대한 오차 보정을 지속적으로 수행한다.

A person often needs to visit a facility that have not been visited before. In this case, it is necessary to easily identify the building in which the facility is located. Indoor navigation is also important, as the person may get lost due to the complex structure of buildings. To solve these problems, this paper presents a mobile application which provides a user with indoor place information and indoor navigation. A user is requested to take a photograph of a building of interest or of the current location. Then, the proposed application identifies the building of interest or the current location of the user by utilizing an image matching technique. For fast matching, database filtering by using GPS/magnetometer data and pre-extraction of features for images in the database are utilized. In case of indoor navigation, the application provides the actual images of check points as well as the moving direction. Simulation results show that the proposed system successfully identifies the location of users and provides place information and indoor navigation.

스마트폰의 사용이 크게 활성화됨에 따라 거의 모든 사람들이 항상 휴대하고 있으며, 실외에서는 GPS 위성시스템을 이용하여 자신의 위치를 인식하고 관련된 응용 서비스를 제공받을 수 있다. 그러나 실내에서는 스마트폰의 위치를 인식하기도 어렵고 TDOA 방식의 상대 위치를 측정하는 방식에서는 글로벌 좌표를 인식할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 음향 신호를 이용한 TDOA 방식의 상대 위치 추정 시스템에서, GPS 수신기와 지자기 센서를 이용하여 실내에서 스마트폰의 글로벌 좌표를 인식하는 시스템이 제안되었고, 그 성능과 실험 결과가 기술되었다.
