Research and development are underway to connect the network to all things in the world and to manage the objects through the Internet. The Internet of Things is expected to play an important role in building ecosystem of next generation mobile communication service. The most significant communication technology is LPWAN. In this paper, we analyze the performance according to each data transmission rate to reduce and manage resource waste by using many LPWAN nodes more efficiently in accordance with the demands of the times. The LPWAN communication technology used in this paper was designed based on LoRaWAN, a long-distance low-power wireless platform developed by Semtech, and analyzed by implementing a virtual IoT base using Network Simulator-3.

Herein, we propose a LoRaWAN-based small draft system that can measure the ocean current flow (speed, direction, and distance) in real time at the request of the Coast Guard to develop a device that can promptly find survivors at sea. This system has been implemented and verified in the early stages of rescue after maritime vessel accidents, which are frequent. GPS signals often transmit considerable errors, so correction algorithms using the improved triangulation method algorithm are required to accurately indicate the direction of currents in real time. This paper is structured in the following manner. The introduction section elucidates rescue activities in the case of a maritime accident. Chapter 2 explains the characteristics and main parameters of the GPS surveying technique and LoRaWAN communication, which are related studies. It explains and expands on the critical distance error correction algorithm for GPS signals and its improvement. Chapter 3 discusses the design and analysis of small draft buoys. Chapter 4 presents the testing and validation of the implemented system in both onshore and offshore environments. Finally, Section 5 concludes the study with the expected impact and effects in the future.

LoRa has been evaluated as a promising technology for Internet of things networks. Theoretically, the technology is robust for long-range communication by using chirp spreading spectrum, provides several orthogonal logical channels in a physical channel, exploits spatial reusability by introducing a star-of-stars topology. A part of recent studies indicates the quasi-orthogonality, or the imperfect orthogonality, between logical channels. The channel elements, however, are both spreading factor and bandwidth. Nevertheless, Most of the researches only treat the spreading factor. This study presents the quasi-orthogonality between all of the logical channels built by variations of the both factors. Furthermore, it shows the performance varied by the logical channel interference.

기존의 물리 센서를 활용한 주차 감지는 주차장 규모가 클수록 큰 비용이 필요하고 이미지 기반의 분석은 개별 주차장에 대한 데이터 라벨링과 학습의 노력이 필요했다. 본 논문은 LoRa(Long Range) 네트워크와 마이크로프로세서를 활용한 IoT기반의 시스템으로 영상데이터를 서버로 전송하고 COCO(Common Object in context) 데이터셋으로 학습된 Mask R-CNN 기반의 모델을 활용한 주차장 내 차량점유 감지 알고리즘을 통해 개별 주차장에 대한 학습 또는 라벨링 없이 주차장 내 주차상태를 식별하고 사용자에게 인터페이스를 통해 실시간으로 주차정보를 제공하는 시스템을 구현한다.

모든 주차 면수에 대해 감지하는 시스템은 큰 비용이 필요하여 주차정보 제공을 위해 필요한 스마트 주차장의 설치를 부담스럽게 하므로 애플리케이션을 통한 주차정보 제공을 어렵게 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템은 외부 디바이스, 서버, 애플리케이션으로 구성된다. 주차장 출입로에 아두이노를 활용한 IOT 디바이스를 설치하여 센서를 통해 출입 차량을 감지하고 소량의 데이터를 장거리 전송할 때 적합한 LoRa(Long Range) 네트워크를 통해 주차정보를 서버로 전송하며 사용자의 요청이 있을 때 주차정보를 제공한다. 기존 시스템보다 감지범위를 줄이고 LoRa 네트워크를 활용한 시스템을 통해 주차공간 탐색으로 인한 사회적 비용과 시스템 구축비용을 절감하는 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

Ministry of oceans and Fisheries declared action plan for the electric fishing gear using real name in order to prevent overusing the fishing gear and to reduce discarded fishing gear. It is needed for a technique that can efficiently transmit the information including the type and location of the fishing gear and the user's real name to the fishing boat and the control center using IoT-based communication. In this paper, we propose the buoy-launched terminal equipment and ship-launched gateway equipment based on LoRa technology for effectively executing the electric fishing gear using real name. We design and fabricate to communicate 1(gateway):200(buoy) each other under 900 MHz ISM band by using SEMTECH SX1276 chip. Also, we experiment the test on the sea and analyze the test results to prove the implementation possibility of the proposed equipments for the electric fishing gear using real name.

This paper propose the remote monitoring system using LoRa networks about storm overflow chamber, which is a device designed to discharge rainwater directly to a sewage treatment plant when it reaches a certain amount of rainfall during precipitation. In this system, when the information produced by the sensor is transmitted to the LoRa network server and updated, the application server can automatically receive data through the implemented communication interface. The application server carries out management functions of storm overflow chamber devices and subscription information, collects measured flow rate and opening-closing information, and provides statistical information using the collected data. The android app performs a firebase-based notification function to prompt the user of malfunctioning of the storm overflow chamber device.

In order to realize IoT(Internet of Things) service, it is necessary to manage sensing data and build a service with respect to its scalability. However, existing internet services use unique protocols and non-standardized functions for each service provider, and it is difficult to provide data management and service because they use short-range communication technology such as Bluetooth. In addition, plurality of APs and gateways must be taken into consideration in establishing a wide area network. In this paper, we propose a sensing data management system using LoRa(Long Range) communication based on Mobius platform. The end device that drives Tas is configured to collect sensing data, configure an application gateway that drives &Cube, and transmit sensing data to the server. In addition, a server that manages the Mobius is configured to handle the sensing data transmitted from the application gateway to provide a monitoring service. We establish a wide area network through LoRa communication between the end device and the gateway and provide data management and service corresponding to the internet through the Mobius platform.
