본 논문은 NDIR(Non Dispersive Infra Red) 방식을 적용하여 $CO_2$ 및 $CH_4$의 두 가지 가스를 하나의 휴대용 장치에서 측정이 가능하도록 제작된 복합 가스 측정 장치에 대한 연구이다. 측정 장치의 구성은 적외선램프에서 적외선이 방출되면 방출된 파장이 광학창을 거치면서 흡수로 인하여 빛이 줄어들게 되고 이 감소량(흡수도)을 검출기에서 검출하고 이를 전기적 신호로 변환 증폭하여(3.5V~6V) 정확한 측정이 가능함을 보여준다. 기존의 Single Sensor 방식은 적외선에서 특수파장을 흡수하여 상대 측정량을 검출하는 방식으로 가스의 경우 $4.26{\mu}m$파장의 빛만을 검출하여 측정하는 방식으로 센서의 값을 보정할 수 있는 기준센서가 없어 오차가 발생하는 문제가 발생하였다. 본 연구에 적용된 Dual Sensor 방식은 다른 가스의 영향을 받지 않는 $3.91{\mu}m$의 기준치와 가스의 $4.26{\mu}m$의 두 파장을 검출하여 비교측정 함으로써 오차가 적어 신뢰도가 높은 방식으로, 휴대형으로 소형화하여 저 전력화가 가능하며, $CO_2$ 및 $CH_4$의 2가지 가스농도를 복합적으로 측정 할 수 있다는 특징이 있다. 측정 범위는 $CO_2$의 경우 0ppm~5,000ppm이고 $CH_4$의 경우는 0~5%의 부피 농도로 실내 공기량 1,000ppm을 측정 할 수 있도록 제작되어 휴대용이나 주택의 Home automation과 연동하여 소화연동이 가능함으로 화재예방에 매우 효과적일 것으로 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 영상유도 로봇 정위방사선치료장비(Stereotactic Radiation Therapy, SRT) 사이버나이프의 Synchrony 호흡추적장치의 사용에 있어 중요한 요소 중에 하나인 호흡의 안정성을 향상 시키고자 휴대형 호흡연습장치(portable respiratory training device)를 개발하였다. 그래프와 막대 형식의 2가지 디스플레이 중 사용자가 원하는 방식을 선택할 수 있도록 인터페이스를 제작하고, 자신의 호흡주기에 대한 리듬감을 향상 시켜 다음 호흡을 예측할 수 있도록 도와주는 청각시스템을 지원하여 편안한 호흡유도를 제공하였다. 5명의 지원자를 대상으로 자체 프로그램을 통해 검출한 개인고유 호흡주기를 적용하여, '자유호흡(free respiration)'에서 획득한 신호데이터와 시청각시스템을 통해 호흡을 유도하는 '모니터호흡(guide respiration)'의 신호데이터를 획득하고, 호흡주기(period)와 호흡깊이(amplitude)의 편차 평균값을 비교하여 유용성을 평가하였다. 호흡주기의 경우 자유호흡에 비하여 $55.74{\pm}0.14%$로 감소하였고, 호흡깊이의 경우에도 자유호흡의 비해 $28.12{\pm}0.10%$ 감소함으로써 호흡의 규칙성과, 안정성이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 개발한 휴대형 호흡연습장치를 이용한 간암, 폐암 등의 체부정위방사선치료에 있어, 호흡 불안정에 의해 발생되는 치료시간의 지연을 줄이고 치료정확도 향상에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 평가되며, 차후 안드로이드(Android)기반의 휴대용단말기를 대상으로 한 호흡연습 어플리케이션 개발에 적용한다면 사용 편의성과 더불어 경제적 효율까지 기대할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Mobile IPv6는 시그널 양이 단말과 비례한다는 점에서 대역폭 낭비가 심하며 또한, 무선 이동 네트워크 분야에서는 바인딩 시그널 양과 트래픽, 효과적인 이동성을 지원할 수 있는 점이 강화되어야 한다. 이에 따라, Mobile IPv6를 확장한 NEMO(NEtwork MObility)에 대한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. NEMO는 여러 이동 단말과 하나 이상의 이동 라우터를 이동 네트워크라는 단위로 묶어 이동성을 제공한다. 이때 노드들은 이동 라우터를 통해 인터넷에 접속하기 때문에 이동 시 별도의 작업이 필요없는 투명성을 제공받고, 그만큼 바인딩 시그널이 줄어 바인딩 스톰문제를 해결할 수 있다. NEMO는 이동성 지원을 통해 여러 네트워크들이 계층적으로 이루어 질 수 있는 다양한 이동 구조를 갖게 되고, 이동 시 상위 네트워크 혹은 하위 네트워크들 간의 인증을 통해 안전성과 보안성을 향상되어야 함이 필수적이다. 또한, 안전한 인증 뿐만 아니라 빠른 핸드오프가 이루어져서 이동성에 따라 수반되는 효율성을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안에 관한 연구가 무엇보다 필요한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 이를 위해 다양한 NEMO 이동 시나리오를 7가지로 정리하고, 각 시나리오별 AAA인증과 F+HMIPv6를 적용하여 안전한 인증과 빠른 핸드오프를 통한 인증 및 핸드오프 시 발생하는 시그널링 양과 패킷 지연률을 효과적으로 감소할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다.

In recent, ISM (Industrial Scientific Medical) band that is 2.4GHz band authorized free of charge is being widely used for smart phone, notebook computer, printer and portable multimedia devices. Accordingly, studies have been continuously conducted on the possibility of coexistence among nodes using ISM band. In particular, the interference of IEEE 802.11b based Wi-Fi device using overlapping channel during communication among IEEE 802.15.4 based wireless sensor nodes suitable for low-power, low-speed communication using ISM band causes serious network performance deterioration of wireless sensor networks. This paper examined a method of identifying channel status to avoid interference among wireless communication devices using IEEE 802.11b (Wi-Fi) and other ISM bands during communication among IEEE 802.15.4 based wireless sensor network nodes in ISM band. To identify channels occupied by Wi-Fi traffic, various studies are being conducted that use the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) value of interference signal obtained through ED (Energy Detection) feature that is one of IEEE 802.15.4 transmitter characteristics. This paper examines an algorithm that identifies the possibility of using more accurate channel by mixing utilization of interference signal and RSSI mean value of interference signal by wireless sensor network nodes. In addition, it verifies such algorithm by using OPNET Network verification simulator.

In this paper, we present a QRS-complex detection algorithm to calculate an accurate heartbeat and clearly recognize irregular rhythm from ECG signals. The conventional Pan-Tompkins algorithm brings false QRS detection in the derivative when QRS and noise signals have similar instant variation. The proposed algorithm uses amplitude differences in 7 adjacent samples to detect QRS-complex which has the highest amplitude variation. The calculated amplitude is cubed to dominate QRS-complex and the moving average method is applied to diminish the noise signal's amplitude. Finally, a decision rule with a threshold value is applied to detect accurate QRS-complex. The calculated signals with Pan-Tompkins and proposed algorithms were compared by signal-to-noise ratio to evaluate the noise reduction degree. QRS-complex detection performance was confirmed by sensitivity and the positive predictive value(PPV). Normal ECG, muscle noise ECG, PVC, and atrial fibrillation signals were achieved which were measured from an ECG simulator. The signal-to-noise ratio difference between Pan-Tompkins and the proposed algorithm were 8.1, 8.5, 9.6, and 4.7, respectively. All ratio of the proposed algorithm is higher than the Pan-Tompkins values. It indicates that the proposed algorithm is more robust to noise than the Pan-Tompkins algorithm. The Pan-Tompkins algorithm and the proposed algorithm showed similar sensitivity and PPV at most waveforms. However, with a noisy atrial fibrillation signal, the PPV for QRS-complex has different values, 42% for the Pan-Tompkins algorithm and 100% for the proposed algorithm. It means that the proposed algorithm has superiority for QRS-complex detection in a noisy environment.

We propose portable equipment that monitors current and voltage of high-potential power transmission lines. In the equipment, a current and voltage sensor are attached to an insulator that supports a power transmission line: A clamped to the power line and the detected current signal is transmitted to the ground station by a wireless optical link using transmission line is detected by a high resistance element, zinc oxide (ZnO). That acts as a potential divider between the power line and ground. We make an experimental device for 66kV power line and demonstrate that it can monitor currents proposed equipment is small-sized, light, and inexpensive in comparison with the conventional CT (current transformer) and PT (potential transformer) since it does not require high potential insulators and magnetic cores, further, the equipment is easily installed owing to its small size and its simple structure.

In this paper, a new reliable portable activity monitoring device implemented with the buddhist-style bowing activity and walking step detection algorithm, is presented. In order to monitor the bowing and walking activities, miniaturized 3-axis accelerometer sensor with the sensitivity of 800 mV/g was used. After initial signal conditioning, vector magnitude of accelerometer signals was calculated. Syntactic peak detection method was used in order to feature points. All signal processing algorithms were implemented in ultra-low power microcontroller MSP430 with double precision floating point arithmetic. For evaluation, 19 young man($24.22\pm5.22$ yrs) and woman($22.28\pm2.72$ yrs) were involved. The accuracy of the proposed algorithms were 98.91 %($\pm0.011$) for walking step detection and 98.25 %($\pm0.023$) for buddhist-style bowing activity. Comparing to the commercialized pedometer accuracy, 87.1 %($\pm0.058$), the proposed walking step detection algorithms show more reliable accuracy.

In this study, we developed five mobile units and an integrated system which can manage vital signs from each unit using Bluetooth wireless communication. The five kinds of mobile unit were so designed that each has different function to be applied according to the condition of patient properly. The mobile units can measure ECG signal of single or 12 channel, blood pressure, pulse and SpO2 signal from a patient. Also, to reduce the uncomfortable measurement, several types of units such as belt type, wrist type and necklace type were designed. Our proposed system can integrate and monitor several biological signals from different patient by using Bluetooth wireless communication simultaneously. The developed system was evaluated in the simulated emergent situation and showed the system can monitor 5 patients in maximum according to the data quality. It showed the possibilities that the developed system can be used effectively for emergency situation or in- or out-hospital transport of patient. In future, with the combination of mobile communication technique, a patient who is in emergency situation can be provided with proper first-aid and a doctor can pile information of patient and give better diagnosis and treatments.

Al alloys are useful materials having high specific strength and are used in machining of parts having thin-walled structures for weight reduction in aircraft, automobiles, and portable devices. In machining of thin-walled structures, it is difficult to maintain dimensional accuracy because machining deformation occurs because of cutting forces and heat in the cutting zone. Thus, cutting conditions and methods need to be investigated and cutting signals need to be analyzed to diagnose and minimize machining deformation and thereby enhance machining quality. In this study, an investigation on cutting conditions to minimize machining deformation and an analysis on characteristics of cutting signals when machining deformation occurs are conducted. Cutting signals for the process are acquired by using an accelerometer and acoustic emission (AE) sensor. Signal characteristics according to the cutting conditions and the relation between machining deformation and cutting signals are analyzed.
