  • Lora, a non-band network technology of the long-distance wireless standard LPWAN standard, uses ABP and OTTA methods and AES-128-based encryption algorithm (shared key) for internal terminal authentication and integrity verification. Lora's recent firmware tampering vulnerability and shared-key encryption algorithm structure make it difficult to defend against MITM attacks. In this study, the consensus algorithm(PBFT) is applied to the Lora network to enhance safety. It performs authentication and PBFT block chain creation by searching for node groups using the GPS module. As a result of the performance analysis, we established a new Lora trust network and proved that the latency of the consensus algorithm was improved. This study is a 4th industry convergence study and is intended to help improve the security technology of Lora devices in the future.

  • With the development of communication infrastructure, the number of network equipment owned by one person is gradually increasing. General-purpose devices such as smartphones can implement theft/loss prevention function by implementing S/W. However, other small devices lack practicality such as long-distance communication problems due to standard communication technology specifications or H/W limitations, and lack of functions(authentication and security). This study combines the Lora communication protocol in the LPWA standard environment and the blockchain technology. Anti-theft and security functions were added to the protocol, and the PBFT consensus algorithm was applied to build a blockchain network. As a result of the test, the effectiveness of safety(authentication and trust network) and performance(blockchain processing performance) were confirmed. This study aims to contribute to the future development of portable or small device anti-theft products as a 4th industrial convergence research.

  • In order to solve the problems such as reduction of agriculture population, aging and declining of grain self sufficiency rate, agriculture ICT convergence technology utilizing IoT technology is actively being developed. Agricultural ICT technology only concentrates on facility houses, and there is no automated control system in the field of cultivation. In this paper, we propose an irrigation control system that automatically controls the solenoid valves and water pumps in a large area with Lora wireless communication. The proposed system does not require a separate power source by using a small solar panel, and it is very convenient to install and operate supporting wireless auto setup by plug-and-play method. Therefore, it is expected that it will contribute to the reduction of labor force, quality of agricultural products, and productivity improvement.

  • In this paper, an analysis problem of repair levels and spare part allocation for MIME(Multi indenture multi echelon) systems is studied using simulation and meta-heuristics. We suggest a method to determine simultaneously repair levels and spare parts allocation to minimize the life cycle cost of MIME system under availability constraint. A simulated annealing method is used to analyze the repair levels and genetic algorithm is used to obtain the optimal allocation of spare parts. We also develop a simulation system to calculate the life cycle cost and system availability. Some numerical examples are also studied.

  • 드론은 군사목적에서 개발되고 사용되어 왔으나 현재에는 촬영, 물류 등의 다양한 분야에서 연구 및 사용되고 있다. 앞으로 수많은 드론이 하늘에서 비행할 것으로 예상됨에 따라 때때로 비슷한 항로를 비행하는 드론간의 충돌 위험 또한 야기될 수 있다. 드론을 안전하게 비행하기 위한 많은 연구들이 진해되어 왔지만 공중 충돌에 의한 피해를 최소화 하려는 연구의 진행은 초기상태에 있다. 본 논문은 민간 항공기에 적용되어 사용되고 있는 1030/1090MHz 대역의 TCAS 시스템을 433MHz LoRa 네트워크를 사용하여 구현하였다. 충돌 위험을 판단하는 근거는 비행준인 드론의 진행 방향 및 비행 고도를 통하여 산출한다.

  • LoRaWan(Long Range Wide Area Network)은 저전력, 장거리 특성을 가진 무선 통신기술로 그 특성상 스마트 시티(Smart City), IoT(Internet of Things) 등에 각광받고 있다. 또한 LoRaWan은 Chirp 신호 특성에 의해 실외 삼각측량에 따른 사용자 위치 추정 기술을 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 LoRaWan의 특성에 더해 Wi-Fi 지문 정보를 활용하여 위치 추정 정확도를 개선하고 또한 이웃 Wi-Fi 단말들, 가령 스마트폰 등의 위치 정보를 LoraWan 게이트웨이와 통신하여 최종적으로 서버에서 측위 할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다.

  • The Loran-C, a radio navigation system based on TDOA measurements is enhanced to eLoran using TOA measurements instead of TDOA measurements. Many error factors such as PF, SF, ASF, clock errors and unknown biases are included in eLoran TOA measurements. Because these error factors can cause failure in eLoran navigation algorithm, these errors must be compensated for high accuracy eLoran navigation results. Compensation of ASF and unknown biases are difficult to calculate, while the others such as PF and SF are relatively easy to eliminate. In order to compensate all errors in eLoran TOA measurements, a simple GPS aided bias compensation method is suggested in this paper. This method calculates the bias as the difference of TOA measurement and the range between eLoran transmitters and the receiver whose position is determined using GPS. The real data measured in Europe are used for verification of suggested method and navigation algorithm.
