본 논문에서는 IoT (Internet of Things) 서비스 구현을 위한 스마트센서의 설계 방안을 연구하였다. 지속적인 데이터 수집을 위한 센서의 전원 공급부는 에너지 하베스팅 (Energy Harvesting) 기술을 적용하였으며, 주변 환경으로부터 영향을 줄일 수 있는 압전소자 (piezoelectric transducer)를 선택하여 전원 공급부를 설계하였다. 데이터 전송을 위한 무선통신 인터페이스는 BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) 기술을 적용하여 설계하였다. BLE는 저전력 단거리 무선 통신에 적합하며, 주요 응용분야인 BLE 비콘 (beacon)은 O2O (Online to Offline) 서비스, 실내 측위 기반의 내비게이터, 도난/미아 방지 서비스에서 모바일 게임 등으로 활용 범위가 확대되고 있다. BLE 무선통신의 짧은 전송 거리를 보완하기 위해 무선 커버리지를 확대할 수 있는 방안을 연구하였으며, 네트워크 구축이 용이하고 무선 커버리지 확대할 수 있는 CATV 망을 활용한 BLE 센서 네트워크 구축 방안을 제안하였다.

In this paper, we propose the power-based pipelined-forwarding MAC protocol which can select relay nodes according to the residual power and energy harvesting rate in EH-WSN (energy-harvesting wireless sensor networks). The proposed MAC follows a pipelined-forwarding scheme in which nodes repeatedly sleep and wake up in an EH-WSN environment and data is continuously transmitted from a high-level node to a low-level node. The sleep interval is adaptively controlled so that nodes with low energy harvesting rate can be charged sufficiently, thereby minimizing the transmission delay and increasing the network lifetime. Simulation shows that the proposed MAC protocol improves the balance of residual power and network lifetime.

This paper presents a ZigBee wireless communication system for remote diagnosis in overhead distribution power lines. The system is divided in three parts in the functional aspect - a host computer module, a remote controller module and a diagnostic system module. The host computer module designed as USB interface transmits control signals and receive data measured by sensor. The remote controller module operates the diagnostic system. Diagnostic system module communicates with internal main controller and host computer USB. Multiple communication channel is adopted for simultaneous operations of several diagnostic system. Dedicated protocol for each module is developed. The system is designed with a focus on low cost and small size suitable for lightweight and small diagnostic system.

It is practical nowadays to automate data recording in order to prevent loss and tampering of records. There are existing technologies that satisfy this needs and one of them is wireless sensor networks (WSN). Wireless body sensor networks (WBSN) are wireless networks and information-processing systems which are deployed to monitor medical condition of patients. In terms of performance, WBSNs are restricted by energy, and communication between nodes. In this paper, we focused in improving the performance of communication to achieve less energy consumption and to save power. The main idea of this paper is to prioritize nodes that exhibit a sudden change of vital signs that could put the patient at risk. Cluster head is the main focus of this study in order to be effective; its main role is to check the sent data of the patient that exceeds threshold then transfer to the sink node. The proposed scheme implemented added a time-based protocol to sleep/wakeup mechanism for the sensor nodes. We seek to achieve a low energy consumption and significant throughput in this study.

For smart mobile devices, the wireless communication module is one of the hardware modules that consume the most energy. If we can build a multi-channel multi-interface environment using heterogeneous communication modules and operate them dynamically, data transmission performance can be highly improved by increasing the parallelism. Also, because these heterogeneous modules have different data rates, transmission ranges, and power consumption, we can save energy by exploiting a power efficient and low speed wireless interface module to transmit/receive sporadic small data. In this paper, we propose a power efficient data transmission method using heterogeneous communication networks. We also compared the performance of our proposed scheme to a conventional scheme, and proved that our proposed scheme can save energy while guaranteeing reasonable data delivery time.

The release of IEEE 802.15.4 PHY-MAC standard represents a milestone in developing of commercial wireless sensor network pursuing low power and low cost. In this paper, IEEE 802.15.4 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol was analysed at the point of power consumption. This analysis measured the amount of the rest of power after transmitting data with beacon enabled mode and the power consumption of each node in the time period. ns-2 simulation is used to verify the analysis.

In this paper, we propose a mechanical contact inner tap inspection system that can inspect the defect of the inner tap immediately after inner tap is processed within the machining center. The inspection module has the collet chuck structure, so it can mounted on the main spindle of the machining center during inspection. It was developed with a focus on inspection for tap having 20 mm depth which is primarily fabricated in automotive parts and has a double sided PCB-type control system including sensing function based on Zigbee module, micom and IR sensor for wireless transmission of measured data with low power operation, and also a battery for supplying electric power. The current consumption is 46.8mA in the inspection operation mode and 0.0268mA in the power saving mode for 3.7V of the applied power source, so that 30,000 times or more inspection can be performed with assumed 5 seconds inspection time for one tap. Experiments in test jig system and actual machining center confirm that the proposed inner tap inspection system can be applied to the batch process of simultaneous inspection after tapping in the machining center.

With advance in technologies for wireless sensor networks(WSNs), 2.4 GHz band has become gradually attractive due to increase in low-power wireless communication devices. Especially ZigBee(IEEE 802.15.4-based) technology whose frequency band includes the 2.4GHz industrial, scientific and medical band providing nearly worldwide availability has been universally applicable to a various remote monitoring system and applications related home network system. However network throughput of these systems is significantly deteriorated due to this ISM band is a license-exemption used in a variety of low-power wireless communication devices. For instance, other IEEE 802 wireless standards such as Bluetooth, WLAN, Wi-Fi and others cause radio interference to ZigBee. The experiments was carried out to analyze radio frequency interference between heterogeneous devices using ISM bands to improve the limited frequency utility factor. Finally this paper suggests a frequency hopping-based adaptive multi-channel methods to decrease interference with empirical results.

Our present ability to work with video has not been confined to wired communication environment. This paper describes the new technological trend of wireless video communication. In wireless video communication, unlike wired network, several techniques are needed. At first, error robust video coding is essential. Due to characteristics of wireless channel, the system is exposed to more error prone environment. In addition, encoded video bit streams are vulnerable to the error because of the entropy coding. Recently many frameworks are developed to cope with this problem. We just explore the numerous robust video coding approaches with the viewing of error control. And more we discuss other on going research topics in this wireless video communication fields like low-power assumption design, trans-codec technique, and rate control schemes in brief.
