  • 이동 Ad-hoc 무선망은 고정 라우터나 호스트, 무선 기지국에 관계없이 순수하게 무선기반의 인프라 구조로 구성된 망이다. 기존의 무선망 인프라는 기반 구축 비용이 많이 들고 기반구조가 파괴되었을 때 서비스 제공이 불가능한 단점이 있다. Ad-hoc 무선망은 이러한 단점을 보안하기 위해 라우팅 알고리즘을 구현하여 기존의 통신망보다 Ad-hoc 무선망을 이용하면 지진으로 인한 유 무선망의 통화단절 등을 막을 수 있고, 이동전화 품질서비스, 저렴한 가격, 떨어져 있는 동일 사업장내에서 무료 통화가 가능하여 이동통신 사업자에게 통신료를 지불할 필요가 없다. 본고에서는 이를 실현화 시킬 수 있는 알고리즘 개발과 시험을 통한 결과를 제시하고자 한다.

  • In order to prevent overusing the fishing gear and to reduce discarded fishing gear, there is a need 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 order to do this, it is necessary to be able to confirm the position information of a plurality of buoys that can be identified by the base stations on the land. In this paper, in order to service the maritime IoT communication system, we calculate the link budget between the land base station and the targets on the sea to derive the service coverage. To design a marine IoT radio network for building a fishing gear monitoring system, we calculate link budget for wireless service optimization at sea for NB-IoT using 1.8 GHz frequency band and LoRa service using 900 MHz frequency band. In addition, the link budget between the land base station and buoy, the link budget between the land base station and fishing boat are calculated and the results are analyzed.

  • 몇 년 사이에 IoT는 통신 프로토콜과 디바이스 중심의 단순한 개념에서 점점 진화 하여, 디바이스, 인터넷기술, 그리고 사람(사물, 데이터 등)이 보안, 프라이버시, 신뢰도 문제를 해결하는 것까지 포함한 비즈니스 혁신, 재현성, 상호 운용성을 위한 완전한 생태계를 창조하는 것으로 개념이 바뀌어 가고 있다. IERC는 실제와 가상의 사물들이 고유특성과 물리적 가상적 특성을 가지고 있고, 지능형 인터페이스를 사용하며, 끊김없이 정보네트워크를 통합 하는 표준과 상호운용 통신 프로토콜을 기반으로 자기 스스로 재구성이 가능한 동적인 글로벌 네트워크 인프라로 정의함으로써 IoT의 범위를 인프라까지 확대 정의하고 있는 추세이다. 이와 같은 IoT 영역이 확대되면서, 일반적으로 IoT의 4대 기술 분야를 센싱기술, 유 무선 통신 네트워크 기술, 플랫폼 기술 및 서비스 기술로 분류하고 있으며, 이 중에서 다양한 전파서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 무선통신망 구축이 필수이며, 이를 실현하기 위해서는 주파수 자원 확보가 매우 중요하다. 본고에서는 이를 실현화 시킬 수 있는 동북아지역 IoT주파수 동향 및 표준화에 대하여 결과를 제시하고자 한다.

  • In this study, we consider a group-based random access method for group connection and delivery by grouping devices when H2H devices and large-scale M2M devices coexist in a cell in NB-IoT environment. H2H devices perform individual random access, but M2M devices are grouped according to a NPRACH transmission period, and a leader of each group performs random access. The preamble is allocated using the variable preamble allocation algorithm of the Disjoint Allocation(DA) method. The proposed preamble allocation algorithm is an algorithm that preferentially allocates preambles that maximizes throughput of H2H to H2H devices and allocates the rest to M2M devices. The access distribution of H2H and M2M devices was set as Poisson distribution and Beta distribution, respectively, and throughput, collision probability and resource utilization were analyzed. As the random access transmission slot is repeated, the proposed preamble allocation algorithm decreases the collision probability from 0.93 to 0.83 and 0.79 when the number M2M device groups are 150. In addition, it was found that the amount of increase decreased to 33.7[%], 44.9[%], and 48.6[%] of resource used.

  • In this research, design and fabrication of marine repeater capable to extend communication coverage in monitoring system of fishing gear automatic identification, which is one of implementation method of the real-name electric fishing gear system declared by Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries in 2016, is reported. The proposed marine repeater is fabricated in a form of RF repeater with interference cancellation system (ICS), which can cancel the oscillation due to feedback signal between service antenna and link antenna. In design process, we secure the isolation of 30 dB between service antenna and link antenna. It is confirmed that when the level of feedback signal into repeater input be lower of 15 dB than repeater gain, error vector magnitude due to oscillation can be lower than the performance criterion of 6%, from the test verification. It is expected that the service coverage will be extended by applying the developed marine ICS RF repeater into marine IoT network including monitoring system of fishing gear automatic identification.

  • Global climate change and urbanization have various demerits, such as water pollution, flood damage, and deterioration of water circulation. Thus, attention is drawn to Nature-based Solution (NbS) that solve environmental problems in ways that imitate nature. Among the NbS, urban wetlands are facilities that perform functions, such as removing pollutants from a city, improving water circulation, and providing ecological habitats, by strengthening original natural wetland pillars. Frequent monitoring and maintenance are essential for urban wetlands to maintain their performance; therefore, there is a need to apply the Internet of Things (IoT) technology to wetland monitoring. Therefore, in this study, we attempted to develop a real-time wetland monitoring device and interface. Temperature, water temperature, humidity, soil humidity, PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 were measured, and the measurements were taken at 10-minute intervals for three days in both indoor and wetland. Sensors suitable for conditions that needed to be measured and an Arduino MEGA 2560 were connected to enable sensing, and communication modules were connected to transmit data to real-time databases. The transmitted data were displayed on a developed web page. The data measured to verify the monitoring device were compared with data from the Korea meteorological administration and the Korea environment corporation, and the output and upward or downward trend were similar. Moreover, findings from a related patent search indicated that there are a minimal number of instances where information and communication technology (ICT) has been applied in wetland contexts. Hence, it is essential to consider further research, development, and implementation of ICT to address this gap. The results of this study could be the basis for time-series data analysis research using automation, machine learning, or deep learning in urban wetland maintenance.

  • Internet of Things(IoT) is a communication technology that collects information of object remotely and controls the function of object by adding a communication function to object that does not have a communication function. For the IoT, various communication technologies such as Wi-Fi, 3GPP, and Bluetooth are available, and Long Range(LoRa) is communication technologies specialized in the IoT concept. LoRa is a communication technology that support long-distance, low-power, and low-speed communication, and is suitable for collecting information generated form object in remote equipment and controlling equipment. Because of these characteristics, it is used in many application field, and various performance improvement studies are in progress. This paper intends to propose an ultra-long-range LoRa communication module that can be used in a wider range of applications. We design and implement hardware, firmware, and application software for testing to develop ultra-long-range LoRa communication modules. The implemented module will be tested in a real environment to verify its performance and to check its utilization.

  • With the development of the NB-IoT (Narrow band Internet of Things) and smart cities, coupled with the emergence of smart smoke sensors, new requirements and issues have been introduced to study on the deployment of sensors in large spaces. Previous research mainly focuses on the optimization of wireless sensors in some monitoring environments, including three-dimensional terrain or underwater space. There are relatively few studies on the optimization deployment problem of smart smoke sensors, and leaving large spaces with obstacles such as libraries out of consideration. This paper mainly studies the deployment issue of smart smoke sensors in large spaces by considering the fire probability of fire areas and the obstacles in a monitoring area. To cope with the problems of coverage blind areas and coverage redundancy when sensors are deployed randomly in large spaces, we proposed an optimized deployment strategy of smart smoke sensors based on the PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm. The deployment problem is transformed into a multi-objective optimization problem with many constraints of fire probability and barriers, while minimizing the deployment cost and maximizing the coverage accuracy. In this regard, we describe the structure model in large space and a coverage model firstly, then a mathematical model containing two objective functions is established. Finally, a deployment strategy based on PSO algorithm is designed, and the performance of the deployment strategy is verified by a number of simulation experiments. The obtained experimental and numerical results demonstrates that our proposed strategy can obtain better performance than uniform deployment strategies in terms of all the objectives concerned, further demonstrates the effectiveness of our strategy. Additionally, the strategy we proposed also provides theoretical guidance and a practical basis for fire emergency management and other departments to better deploy smart smoke sensors in a large space.
