  • Fingerprinting is a widely used positioning technology for received signal strength (RSS) based wireless local area network (WLAN) positioning system. Though spatial RSS variation is the key factor of the positioning technology, temporal RSS variation needs to be considered for more accuracy. To deal with the spatial and temporal RSS characteristics within a unified framework, this paper proposes an extended signal propagation mode (ESPM) and a fingerprint generation method. The proposed spatiotemporal fingerprint generation method consists of two algorithms running in parallel; Kalman filtering at several measurement-sampling locations and Kriging to generate location fingerprints at dense reference locations. The two different algorithms are connected by the extended signal propagation model which describes the spatial and temporal measurement characteristics in one frame. An experiment demonstrates that the proposed method provides an improved positioning accuracy.

  • This paper proposes a fault location algorithm for two-parallel transmission line in the case of single line-to-ground fault Proposed algorithm is using voltage and current measured in the sending-end. The fault distance is simply determined by solving a second order polynomial equation due to the direct circuit analysis. The simulations by PSCAD/EMTDC have demonstrated the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

  • 최근에 이동객체의 위치정보를 활용한 위치기반서비스(LBS, Location Bases Services)에 대한 관심이 급증하고 있다. 이동객체는 시간에 따라 위치 정보가 계속 변경되는 공간 객체를 의미한다. 전통적으로 고정된 위치정보를 갖는 공간 객체는 GIS 서버에서 저장, 관리되었다. 그러나, 이동객체의 경우, 위치의 변화가 매우 빈번하며, 과거의 위치정보도 관리해야 하므로, 전통적인 GIS 서버로는 관리가 어렵다. 이 논문에서는 위치기반서비스를 위해 위치정보를 저장, 관리하기 위한 위치정보 관리 시스템을 설계한다. 위치정보 관리 시스템는 위치획득 서브시스템, 위치저장 서브시스템, 그리고, 위치질의 서브시스템으로 구성된다. 이 논문의 기여는 이동객체에 대한 위치획득, 저장, 질의 등 각각의 연구 결과를 통합함으로써, 실제 응용에 적용할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하는데 있다.

  • Mobility management is an important issue in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) because location information of mobile nodes is frequently changed and it aggravates the performance in MANETs drastically. In this paper, we propose a fuzzy logic based mobility management scheme using group quorum system by considering the mobile nodes' locality in order to manage location information of mobile nodes in MANETs efficiently. The proposed scheme selects mobility databases adaptively from group quorum system by considering the degree of locality of a mobile node. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated by an analytical model and compared with that of existing mobility management scheme.

  • This paper proposes a new algorithm of underground cable fault location based on the analysis of distributed parameter circuit. The proposed method firstly makes voltage and current equations for each of cores and sheathes respectively, and then establishes an equation of the fault distance according to the analysis of the fault conditions. Finally the solution of this equation is calculated by Newton-Raphson iteration method. The effectiveness of this proposed algorithm has been proven through PSCAD/EMTDC simulations.

  • In this paper, the authors explained the overview of a method for detecting location of worker for development of a monitoring system for project progress management using RFID technology. Data is the RSSI (Receive Signal Strength Indication) from RFID tag attached to the worker installing a rolling shutter, and was obtained from antennas and RFID readers set around the construction site. Neural network was done using RSSI collected and the area where worker is performing a task, and an estimation model of the working area was prepared. The network had a range of the percentage of correctly classified from 62% to 92%. The authors suggested the method to make estimate by using integrated networks prepared in respect of RFID readers, and showed the percentage of correctly classified of 84.3%. According to the result, the authors confirmed the possibility of the monitoring system with RFID technology, and mentioned the factors necessary to develop for further practical use.
