For safe last-mile autonomous robot delivery services in complex environments, rapid and accurate collision prediction and detection is vital. This study proposes a suitable neural network model that relies on multiple navigation sensors. A light detection and ranging technique is used to measure the relative distances to potential collision obstacles along the robot's path of motion, and an accelerometer is used to detect impacts. The proposed method tightly couples relative distance and acceleration time-series data in a complementary fashion to minimize errors. A long short-term memory, fully connected layer, and SoftMax function are integrated to train and classify the rapidly changing collision countermeasure state during robot motion. Simulation results show that the proposed method effectively performs collision prediction and detection for various obstacles.

Agricultural machine is currently operated by man power in the greenhouse, which is oppressively hot and humid, and is for a farmer not to work in comfortable circumstances. In the future, agricultural machine will not have to operate by man power, but it will need do by unmanned power. In order to put into the automatic and unmanned operation of agricultural machine, this system was designed and built to move through the fixed path in the greenhouse. This system was composed of guiders(wires), a limit switch, an operating equipment, its software for automatizing a machine in the greenhouse. The guider was connected between the wall pillars, and the equipment was able to slide over the fixed path made of the guider, by rectilinear and rotational motion. A micro mouse was developed with a stepping motor to calculate on the success rate of its operation with the system As might be expected, this system with the micro mouse was moved the moved the paths with a success rate of 100% on the flat plane surface in our laboratory. However, on the sand plane or the other materials plane, the success rate was not better than 80%. If the micro mouse were well operated, the success rate was would be 100%. Based on the results of this research, this system would be expected to operate well on the path made of a simple wire.

High-availability seamless redundancy (HSR) is a fault-tolerant protocol for Ethernet networks that provides two frame copies for each frame sent. Each copy is forwarded on a separate physical path. HSR is a potential candidate for several fault-tolerant Ethernet applications, including smart-grid communications. However, the major drawback of the HSR protocol is that it generates and circulates unnecessary frames within connected rings regardless of the presence of a destination node in the ring. This downside degrades network performance and can deplete network resources. Two simple but efficient approaches have previously been proposed to solve the above problem: quick removing (QR) and port locking (PL). In this paper, we will present a hybrid approach, QRPL, by combining QR with PL, resulting in further traffic reductions. Our analysis showed that network traffic is significantly reduced for a large-sized HSR connected ring network compared to the standard HSR protocol, QR, and PL.

This paper proposes a CNN accelerator which is optimized Pooling layer operation incorporated in Multiplication And Accumulation(MAC) to reduce the memory size. For optimizing memory and data path circuit, the quantized 8bit integer weights are used instead of 32bit floating-point weights for pre-training of MNIST data set. To reduce chip area, the proposed CNN model is reduced by a convolutional layer, a 4*4 Max Pooling, and two fully connected layers. And all the operations use specific MAC with approximation adders and multipliers. 94% of internal memory size reduction is achieved by simultaneously performing the convolution and the pooling operation in the proposed architecture. The proposed accelerator chip is designed by using TSMC65nmGP CMOS process. That has about half size of our previous paper, 0.8*0.9 = 0.72mm². The presented CNN accelerator chip achieves 94% accuracy and 77us inference time per an MNIST image.

Since brightness is proportional to the operating current, a method of connecting several LEDs in series and driving with a constant current source is widely used for driving circuits of LED lights. Because several LEDs are connected in series, if some LEDs open due to a fault, the current path is broken and all other LEDs connected in series are turned off. In this paper, we designed a circuit to solve this problem by connecting a Zener diode having a breakdown voltage of about 0.4V higher than the LED operating voltage in parallel with each LED to create a current bypass in case of LED failure. Through simulations and experiments, it was confirmed that the current of the Zener diode hardly flows when the LED is operating normally, and that the Zener diode stably operates as a current bypass when the LED fails.

This paper proposes a plan to improve the reception radio environment of the mobile terminal and maintain a constant reception electric field by using small cells in a small closed environment. In order to configure an efficient communication infrastructure for small cells, both ends of wireless transmission and reception of an Ethernet-based wireless video recording system are connected using an L2 switch. The small cell connected to the receiving side L2 switch shares the wireless network section of the wireless video recording system and connects to the transmitting side L2 switch. After that, when it is normally linked to FMS, a management system for small cells, through the Internet network, the output of small cells is checked. In order to verify the results, a proposed network is formed on the elevator inside the building with a poor radio wave environment, and the radio wave environment is measured before and after the small cell application in the section where the elevator operates. As a result, the main parameters of the radio wave environment in all sections of the elevator are improved, as well as a constant receiving electric field strength within the moving elevator.

With today's complex networks, asset identification of network devices is becoming an important issue in management and security. Because these assets are connected to the network, it is also important to identify the network structure and to verify the location and connection status of each asset. This can be used to identify vulnerabilities in the network architecture and find solutions to minimize these vulnerabilities. However, in an IoT(Internet of Things) network with a small amount of resources, the Traceroute packets sent by the monitors may overload the IoT devices to determine the network structure. In this paper, we describe how we improved the existing the well-known double-tree algorithm to effectively reduce the load on the network of IoT devices. To balance the load, this paper proposes a new destination-matching algorithm and attempts to search for the path that does not overlap the current search path statistically. This balances the load on the network and additionally balances the monitor's resource usage.
