We studied a selective recovery condition of vanadium (V) from FALL (Fly Ash Leach Liquor) produced at a fossil fuel power station using heavy oil. By applying a spectroscopy to quantify the V in a sample, we identified a concentration range V interfered by on presence of metals such as Ni, Fe Also, the optimal vanadium precipitation rate according to the amount of 5.0M $NH_3$ loaded to the sample, solution pH and stirring time. As a result of the experiment, the maximum selective recovery ratio of V was achieved to be higher than 91.5% when the stirring duration was less than 1 minute at pH 7.0, and $25^{\circ}C$.

To establish the equitable distribution of total energy load, a representative cluster based routing protocol LEACH selects cluster heads randomly in accordance with the pre-determined probability every round. But because the current energy level of sensor nodes is not considered, if a sensor node which has little residual energy is elected as a cluster head, it can not live to fulfil the role of cluster head which has big energy load. As a result, the first time of death of a node is quickened and the service quality of WSN gets worse. In this regard we propose a new routing method that, by considering the current energy of a cluster head and the distance between cluster heads and a base station, selects the sub cluster head for saving the energy of a cluster head. Simulation results show that the first time of death of a node prolongs, more data arrive at the base station and the service quality of WSN improves.

In this paper, we intend to improve the network lifetime by improving the energy efficiency of sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network by utilizing machine learning using K-means clustering algorithm. A wireless sensor network is a wireless network composed of physical devices including batteries as physical sensors. Due to the characteristics of sensor nodes, all resources must be efficiently used to minimize energy consumption to maximize network lifetime. A cluster based approach is used to manage groups of relatively large numbers of nodes. In the proposed protocol, by improving the existing LEACH algorithm, we propose a clustering algorithm that selects a cluster head using a cluster based approach and a location based approach. The performance results to be improved were measured using Matlab simulation. Through the experimental results, K-means clustering was applied to the energy efficiency part. By utilizing K-means, it is confirmed that energy efficiency is improved and the lifetime of the entire network is extended.

무선 센서 네트워크는 특정지역에 센서 노드를 설치하여 주변 정보 또는 특정 목적의 데이터를 수집하고, 그 정보를 수집하는 싱크(Sink)로 구성되어 있다. 무선 센서 네트워크의 수명은 망을 구성하는 센서 노드의 베터리 소비에 따라 수명이 결정 되고 하나의 노드가 죽기 시작하면서부터 급격하게 센서 노드의 베터리 소비가 커져 빠르게 죽는다. 무선 센서 네트워크를 구성하는 센서노드는 라우팅, 센싱을 수행하기 때문에 베터리 소비에 많은 부담을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 무선 센서 네트워크의 대표적 클러스터링 기반 라우팅 기법인 LEACH(Low - Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy)프로토콜에 SVM(Support Vector Machine)을 적용하여 센서노드의 균형적인 베터리 소비로 망을 효율적으로 관리하고 망의 수명을 개선 할 수 있는 방법을 제안 한다. 이러한 센서 노드의 균형적인 베터리 소비로 무선센서 네트워크의 수명을 개선 한다. 실험결과 기존의 LEACH 프로토콜보다 우수한 성능을 보인다.

무선 센서 네트워크에서는 배터리에 의존하는 수많은 센서 노드들로 구성이 된다. 이때, 물체들을 감지하기 위해서는 센서들은 켜져 있어야 하고, 수집한 데이터는 클러스터 헤드(Cluster Head)나 싱크(sink) 로 보내주어야 한다. 일련의 동작을 위해서 센서들은 않은 에너지를 소모하게 된다 이를 보완하기 위해서 LEACH 라는 방법을 이용하여, 클러스터 헤드 만이 싱크로 데이터를 전송하고, 에너지를 균일하게 소모하기 위한 기법을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 기본적으로 LEACH 방법을 이용하면서, 이동체의 이동을 감지함에 있어서, 이동체의 예상 이동영역을 예측하여, 예상 이동영역내에 존재하지 않는 센서 노드들은 다음 라운드가 시작할 때까지 Sleep 하도록 하고. 예상 이동영역내에 있는 센서 노드들만 감지하도록 하여, 에너지의 소모를 줄였다. 이때 예상 이동영역은 싱크가 이전에 수집한 데이터로 계산하여, 이동체들의 정보를 모든 노드들에게 브로드 캐스트(Broadcast)하고, 매 라운드마다 클러스터 헤드선택까지는 LEACH 와 마찬가지로 모든 센서 노드들이 참여하지만, 이후 클러스터의 구성원이 되기 위해서는 예상 이동영역내에 존재해야 한다. 만약 해당 라운드에서클러스터 헤드가 되어도, 구성원이 존재하지 않는 다면 다시 Sleep 하도록 하여, 에너지 소모를 줄였다.

Recently, a lot of researches have been done to increase the life span of network using the energy efficient sensor node in WSN. In the WSN environment, we must use limited amount of energy and hardware. Therefore, it is necessary to design energy efficient communication protocol and use limited resources. Cluster based routing method such as LEACH and HEED get the energy efficient routing using data communication between cluster head and related member nodes. In this paper, we propose an energy efficient routing algorithm as well as performance result using simulation.

In this paper, we first propose a power-and-bandwidth efficient cooperative transmission protocol where a sensor node assists two others for their data transmission to a clusterhead in WSNs (Wireless Sensor Networks) using LEACH (Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy). Then we derive its closed-form BER expression which Is also a general BER one for the decode-and-forward protocol (DF) and Prove that the proposed protocol performs as same as the conventional DF but obtains higher spectral efficiency. A variety of numerical results reveal the cooperation can save the network power up to 11dB over direct transmission at BER of $10^{-3}$.

Four species [Berosus (Berosus) japonicus Sharp, Berosus (Berosus) punctipennis Harold, Berosus (Enoplurus) lewisius Sharp, and Berosus (Enoplurus) spinosus (Steven)] in two subgenera are recognized, one of which [B.

The sensor network technology for core technology of ubiquitous computing is in the spotlight recently, the research on sensor network is proceeding actively which is composed many different sensor node. One of the important condition for design of sensor node is to extend for network life which is to minimize power-consumption under the limited resources of sensor network. This study suggest routing protocol that was used second level cluster structure to reduce power-consumption of sensor node. the first level use the previous routing protocol under the LEACH, second level decide to transmit or not by comparision of data value for Effective Usage, reduce the unnecessary power-consumption.
