The Linux-based embedded systems such as mobile telephones. PDAs and MP3 players are widely in use. USB(Universal Serial Bus) is the interface for data communication between the computers and these peripheral devices. Some embedded systems like intelligent home networking and multimedia streaming require guaranteed QoS(Quality of Service), which is needed for real time transmission of UDP/IP messages through USB. Although USB Ethernet driver is supported by USB Gadget API in Linux, it is unable to provide the desirable QoS required by each type or small embedded systems due to the unpredictability or TCP/IP Stack in Linux. This paper proposes IP-Over-USB to improve QoS of UDP/IP message transmission in the embedded systems using USB in Linux system.

In recent years, the need to simultaneously transmit a variety of signals, such as DVI(Digital Visual Interface), audio, video, USB(Universal Serial Bus), LAN from the computer is required. So the cable complexity and scalability issues have been raised. In this paper, this signal can be distributed using a single USB cable, computer, video, audio, USB, LAN, one USB multi-signal transmission system was designed and implemented. USB multi-signal transmission was implemented in order to convert a single DVI, audio, and multiple USB, LAN, USB signal converter modules. This USB DVI port supports up to 1920 * 1080 resolution. USB multi-signal transmission system by sending multiple signals into a single cable installation costs of the various cable and using the replication feature of the screen, will provide schools and institutes, etc., providing the convenience of the river, and the scalability of computer peripheral ports.

Recently, there have been many researches to automate processing and analysing image data in medical field, due to the advance of image processing techniques, the fast communication network and high performance hardware. In this paper, we design and implement the system based on the multi-layer neural network model to be able to analyze, differentiate and count blood cells in the peripheral blood image. To do these, we segment red and white-blood cell in blood image acquired from microscope with CCD(Charge-coupled device) camera and then apply the various feature extraction algorithms to classify. In addition to, we reduce multi-variate feature number using PCA(Principle Component Analysis) to construct more efficient classifier. So, in this paper, we are sure that the proposed system can be applied to a pathological guided system.

Recently, u-healthcare device is developed and commercialized for healthcare management and emergency medical. The kinds of the measurable biomedical signals on the device are electrocardiogram, skin temperature, pulse oxygen, heart rate, respiration, etc. Specially, the photoplethysmograph(PPG) signal of these signals is the important signal in measuring oxygen, heart rate and peripheral vascular compliance. The accuracy of PPG signal reduce from influence of the motion artifacts that generated from the movements of user or patient. Therefore, this study suggests a new method to remove the motion artifact that is using optical power modulation and ICA(Independent Component Analysis). For analyzing the proposed method, we used variety of noises made by artificially. In the results of experiments, the proposed method showed good performances than an adaptive filter.

This paper describes automated methods for the detection of lung nodules and their volume calculation on CT scans. Gray-level threshold methods were used to segment the thorax from the background and then the lung parenchymes from the thoracic wall and mediastinum. A scanning-ball algorithm was applied to more accurately delineate the lung boundaries, thereby incorporating peripheral nodules contiguous to pleural surface within the segmented lung parenchymes. The lesions which have the high gray value were extracted from the segmented lung parenchymes. The selected lesions include nodules, blood vessels and partial volume effects. The discriminating features such as size, solid-shape, average, standard deviation and correlation coefficient of selected lesions were used to distinguish true nodules from pseudo-lesions. Volume and circularity calculation were performed for each identified nodules. The identified nodules were sorted in descending order of the volume. These method were applied to 621 image slices of 19 cases. The sensitivity was 95% and there was no false-positive result.

This paper presents a design of a BLDC servo motor control system for the auto process of assembly and supply using DSP(Digital Signal Processor) controller and IGBT driver. The assembly and supply auto processing system needs torque, speed, position control of servo motor for variable action. This paper implements those servo control with vector control and space vector PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) technique. As CPU of controller, TMS320F240 DSP was adopted because it has PWM waveform generator, A/D converter, SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface) port and many input/output port etc. This control system consists of 3-level hierarchy structure that main host PC manages three sub DSP system which transfer downward command and are monitoring the states of end servo controllers. Each sub DSP system operates eight BLDC servo controllers which control BLDC motor using DSP and IPM. Between host system and sub DSP communicate with RS-422, between main processor and controller communicate with SPI port.

In this study, a compact wireless vibration measurement system was developed using a 3-axial accelerometer in order to evaluate the vibration stimulation system. A low power microprocessor chip integrated with 2.4 GHz RF transceiver was used for the wireless data communication. To evaluate the system, the frequencies and accelerations from the vibration stimulation system were measured using an LVDT sensor and a vibration measurement system. The average frequency difference by the measurement system was less than 0.1 Hz, and the standard deviation of frequencies estimated by the LVDT sensor and the accelerometer was below 0.08 Hz. The developed system was applied to access a vibration stimulation system for the future study. The average acceleration difference of the central and peripheral point of the stimulation system was less than 0.0005 g(1 g=9.8 $m/s^2$), and the standard deviation of the acceleration was below 0.004 g, which shows the usefulness of the wireless vibration measurement system.

RFID technology using the smart tag technology as a part of the sensor network is currently in the spotlight. But there are still many problems in applying the technology in a ubiquitous environment, induding at the point when anybody can read the tag information and the authentication between the tag and the reader, and security problems in very low-cost smart tag implementation. The proposed scheme is designed to enhance security and efficiency related to various services required in RF networks, based on the reliable peripheral devices for users of passive RFID tag. Using passive RFID tag, which has been applied to authentication transactions in existing papers, this study also proposed an appropriate management scheme that is suitable for a dynamic environment and setting a temporary group to provide various services. also proposed scheme is support RFID grouping, temporary group of service and security servicce, improved efficiency of communication.
