Industry 5.0 puts forward higher requirements for smart cities, including low-carbon, sustainable, and people-oriented, which pose challenges to the design of smart cities. In response to the above challenges, this study introduces the cyber-physical-social system (CPSS) and parallel system theory into the design of smart cities, and constructs a smart city framework based on parallel system theory. On this basis, in order to enhance the security of smart cities, a sustainable patrol subsystem for smart cities has been established. The intelligent patrol system uses a drone platform, and the trajectory planning of the drone is a key problem that needs to be solved. Therefore, a mathematical model was established that considers various objectives, including minimizing carbon emissions, minimizing noise impact, and maximizing coverage area, while also taking into account the flight performance constraints of drones. In addition, an improved metaheuristic algorithm based on ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm was designed for trajectory planning of patrol drones. Finally, a digital environmental map was established based on real urban scenes and simulation experiments were conducted. The results show that compared with the other three metaheuristic algorithms, the algorithm designed in this study has the best performance.

Drones have been widely used in various fields due to the rapid development of done-related technologies, which causes various problems. The schemes which can track target drones by using signal transmitted by target drones have been investigated as a key technology for anti-drone systems to solve these problems. In this paper, we investigate an illegal drone tracking system based on swarming flight that consists of multiple small drones in order to resolve the limitations of a conventional system that consists of a single drone. In addition, we also propose a scheme with which we can adaptively adjust the separation distance between small drones in a swarm according to channel situations. We analyzed the performance of the proposed scheme in terms of success ratio and the number of movements. The proposed scheme can improve the success ratio and the number of movements by 170% and 63% respectively, compared to the conventional scheme.

In this paper, the scheme to activate the active elements of reconfigurable intelligent surface(RIS) is proposed. Recently, RIS has been studied as a technology that improves communication coverage and spectral efficiency in wireless communication system. RIS can adjust the phase and amplitude of the received signal, and can ensure better communication performance in areas with many obstacles, such as urban areas. However, due to RIS, the signal undergoes fading twice and performance decrease in communication. Recently, RIS using active reflection elements has been studied to solve these problems. However, if the entire RIS is used as an active reflection element, energy consumption increases. Accordingly, in this paper, we propose a system that utilizes some of the RIS reflective elements as active reflective elements and a scheme for selecting active reflective elements to be activated.

The author tried to propose the orthographic and DTM (digital terrain model) creation and evaluate the accuracy for an university campus using UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) system. Most previous studies used GPS-based data, but in this paper, the observations of triangulation level measurements was used for comparison of accuracy. Accuracy analysis results showed that the operational requirements for aerial photographic standards are satisfied in all scenaries. The author confirmed availability in aviation photo measurements and applications using UAV (Drone). In order to create a sophisticated DTM and contour, we need to eliminate interference from building, trees, and artificial objects. The results of this study are expected to be used as the basis for future studies in the creation of DTM and the accuracy assessments using Drone.

Railway transportation is the main land-based transportation in most countries. Accordingly, railway-transportation safety has always been a key issue for many researchers. Railway pedestrian accidents are the main reasons of railway-transportation casualties. In this study, we conduct experiments to determine which of the latest convolutional neural network models and algorithms are appropriate to build pedestrian railroad accident prevention systems. When a drone cruises over a pre-specified path and altitude, the real-time status around the rail is recorded, following which the image information is transmitted back to the server in time. Subsequently, the images are analyzed to determine whether pedestrians are present around the railroads, and a speed-deceleration order is immediately sent to the train driver, resulting in a reduction of the instances of pedestrian railroad accidents. This is the first part of an envisioned drone-based intelligent security system. This system can effectively address the problem of insufficient manual police force.

2013년 도커가 등장한 이후, 컨테이너 기술을 기반으로 한 프로젝트 및 사업이 지속적으로 활성화되고 있는 추세이다. 도커 컨테이너는 커널을 포함하고 있지 않음에 따라 기존 가상머신에 비해 경량화된 형태로 애플리케이션을 프로비저닝하는데 활용될 수 있다. 또한, 도커에서는 퍼블릭 도커 이미지 레포지토리인 Docker Hub를 통해 개발된 도커 이미지가 공유 및 배포될 수 있도록 하여 개발자들이 자신의 목적에 부합하는 서비스를 구축하는데 많은 도움을 주고 있다. 최근에는 클라우드 네이티브 환경에 대한 수요가 증가하면서 컨테이너 기술이 더욱 각광받고 있는 실정이다. 이에 따라 도커 이미지 및 이를 기반으로 한 도커 컨테이너 환경에 대한 보안을 위한 연구/개발은 다수 이루어지고 있으나, 도커 이미지 라이선스 컴플라이언스 이슈에 대한 논의 및 민감 데이터 보호 방안에 대한 연구/개발은 부재한 상황이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 도커 이미지 라이선스 컴플라이언스 위반 방지 시스템을 제안하여 도커 이미지 업로드시, Docker Hub 내 도커 이미지와 유사도 검사를 수행할 수 있는 방안을 제시하고자 하며, 도커 이미지 내 민감 데이터를 식별하고 이를 보안할 수 있는 방안에 대해 제시하여 신뢰할 수 있는 도커 컨테이너 공급망을 구축할 수 있음을 보인다.

The purpose of this study is to detect and label the vehicles using the drone images as a way to overcome the limitation of the existing point and section detection system and vehicle gap estimation on Arterial road. In order to select the appropriate time zone, position, and altitude for the acquisition of the drone image data, the final image data was acquired by shooting under various conditions. The vehicle was detected by applying mixed Gaussian, image binarization and morphology among various image analysis techniques, and the vehicle was labeled by applying Kalman filter. As a result of the labeling rate analysis, it was confirmed that the vehicle labeling rate is 65% by detecting 185 out of 285 vehicles. The gap was calculated by pixel unitization, and the results were verified through comparison and analysis with Daum maps. As a result, the gap error was less than 5m and the mean error was 1.67m with the preceding vehicle and 1.1m with the following vehicle. The gaps estimated in this study can be used as the density of the urban roads and the criteria for judging the service level.

In this paper, optical flow based keypoint detection and tracking technique is proposed for the collaboration between flying drone with vision system and ground robots. There are many challenging problems in target detection research using moving vision system, so we combined the improved FAST algorithm and Lucas-Kanade method for adopting the better techniques in each feature detection and optical flow motion tracking, which results in 40% higher in processing speed than previous works. Also, proposed image binarization method which is appropriate for the given marker helped to improve the marker detection accuracy. We also studied how to optimize the embedded system which is operating complex computations for intelligent functions in a very limited resources while maintaining the drone's present weight and moving speed. In a future works, we are aiming to develop collaborating smarter robots by using the techniques of learning and recognizing targets even in a complex background.

Wildlife ecologists and biologists recapture deer to collect tracking data from deer collars or wait for a drop-off of a deer collar construction that is automatically detached and disconnected. The research teams need to manage a base camp with medical trailers, helicopters, and airplanes to capture deer or wait for several months until the deer collar drops off of the deer's neck. We propose an intelligent robust base-station research with a low-cost and time saving method to obtain recording sensor data from their collars to a listener node, and readings are obtained without opening the weatherproof deer collar. We successfully designed the and implemented a robust base station system for automatically collecting data of the collars and listener motes in harsh wilderness environments. Intelligent solutions were also analyzed for improved data collections and pattern predictions with drone-based detection and tracking algorithms.

The mud flat in Korea is the geographical feature generated from the sediment of rivers of Korea and China and it is the important topography for pollution purification and fishing industry. The mud flat is difficult to access such that it requires the aerial survey for the high-resolution spatial information of the area. In this study we used drones instead of the conventional aerial and remote sensing approaches which have shortcomings of costs and revisit times. We carried out GPS-based control point survey, temporal image acquisition using drones, bundle adjustment, stereo image processing for DSM and ortho photo generation, followed by co-registration between the spatio-temporal information.
