본 논문에서는 GPS 수신기가 제공되지 않는 환경에서 무선 AP 위치 추적을 위한 방안을 마련하기 위해 AP 장비로부터 방사되는 무방향성 전파의 특성을 분석하였다. 무선 단말로부터 추적되는 AP장비나 고정된 AP 장비로 추적 가능한 무선 단말의 위치를 추적하기 위해서는 거리에 따른 수신 전력의 분포 환경을 분석하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 2.4GHz 대역의 무선 전파 특성을 실내 및 실외 환경에서 거리에 따라 영향정도 및 특성을 분석하고 이를 위치 예측에 활용하였다.

The existing mobile antenna networks in the military use have been operated by the manual pointing between two antennas. The work presented here describes the study of ATPC(Automatic Tracking and Pointing Control) system between facing antennas and the related tracking and pointing performances. This system is able to automatically track the maximum RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indication) value from the source's RF(Radio Frequency) signal and then control for maintaining the LOS(Line of Sight) between two antennas. The system has three major units; the driving unit consisting of motors, harmonic drives and encoders, the sensor unit with a GPS(Global Positioning System) and AHRS(Attitude and Heading Reference System) and the control unit regulating all the tracking and pointing events. By using PI(Proportional and Integral) controller, this system is able to properly track and point the other antenna under the external disturbance like the wind load. Both the simulation and the experimental works have been successively carried out to prove the performances of the system.

In this paper, we propose a high accurate geo-location system based on a single base station, where its location is obtained by Time-of-Arrival(ToA) and Direction-of-Arrival(DoA) of the radio signal. For estimating accurate ToA and DoA information, a MUltiple SIgnal Classification(MUSIC) is adopted. However, the estimation of ToA and DoA using MUSIC algorithm is a time-consuming process. The position tracking bias is occurred by the time delay caused by the estimation process. In order to mitigate the bias error, we propose the estimation method of the position tracking bias and compensate the location error produced by the time delay using the position tracking bias mitigation. For accurate self-localization of mobile robot, the Unscented Kalman Filter(UKF) with position tracking bias is applied. The simulation results show the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed geo-location system and the enhanced performance when the Unscented Kalman Filter is adopted for mobile robot application.

Continuous research efforts have been made on acquiring location data on construction sites. As a result, GPS and RFID are increasingly employed on the site to track the location of equipment and materials. However, these systems are based on radio frequency technologies which require attaching tags on every target entity. Implementing the systems incurs time and costs for attaching/detaching/managing the tags or sensors. For this reason, efforts are currently being made to track construction entities using only cameras. Vision-based 3D tracking has been presented in a previous research work in which the location of construction manpower, vehicle, and materials were successfully tracked. However, the proposed system is still in its infancy and yet to be implemented on practical applications for two reasons. First, it does not involve entity matching across two views, and thus cannot be used for tracking multiple entities, simultaneously. Second, the use of a checker board in the camera calibration process entails a focus-related problem when the baseline is long and the target entities are located far from the cameras. This paper proposes a vision-based method to track multiple workers simultaneously. An entity matching procedure is added to acquire the matching pairs of the same entities across two views which is necessary for tracking multiple entities. Also, the proposed method simplified the calibration process by avoiding the use of a checkerboard, making it more adequate to the realistic deployment on construction sites.

RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) 기술은 RF 신호를 사용하여 물품에 부착된 전자 태그(tag)를 인식하는 자동인식 기술이다. 이런 RFID 기술의 확산을 위해서는 다수의 태그를 빠르게 읽는 다중접속 방식에서 태그 간 충돌 문제를 해결 하는 충돌방지(anti-collision) 알고리즘이 필수적으로 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 충돌 방지 알고리즘 중에서 트리 기반 메모리래스(tree based memoryless) 충돌방지 알고리즘 기반인 충돌 추적(collision tracking) 알고리즘을 개선한 RCT(Revised Collision Tracking) 방식을 제안한다. 그리고 기존의 충돌 추적 알고리즘과의 성능 비교를 통해 제안하는 방식의 성능을 증명한다.

This paper realizes control of the motion of a swimming robot fish in order to implement an underwater robot fish aquarium. And it implements positional control of a two-axis trajectory path of the robot fish in the aquarium. The performance of the robot was verified though certified field tests. It provided excellent performance in driving force, durability, and water resistance in experimental results. It can control robot motion, that is, it recognizes an object by using an optical flow object-detecting algorithm, which uses a video camera rather than image-detecting sensors inside the robot fish. It is possible to find the robot's position and control the motion of the robot fish using a radio frequency (RF) modem controlled via personal computer. This paper proposes realization of robot fish motion-tracking control using the optical flow object-detecting algorithm. It was verified via performance tests of lead-lag action control of robot fish in the aquarium.

The real-time tracking system is an essential factor for the development of low cost sensor networks for use in pervasive computing and ubiquitous networking. In this paper, we address the interference problems of the sensor network platform with ultrasonic for location tracking system. Ubiquitous indoor environments often contain substantial amounts of metal and other such reflective materials that affect the propagation of radio frequency signals in non-trivial ways, causing severe multi-path effects, dead-spots, noise, and interference. Especially we present a novel reducing interference location system that is particularly well suited to support context-aware computing. The system called Pharos, aims to combine the advantages of real-time tracking systems that implement distributed environment with regardless of infrastructure or infrastructure-less wireless sensor networks.

사이버나이프치료에서 삽입된 금표지자의 삽입 개수 및 인식의 제한으로 인하여 3D DOF로 치료하는 경우 척추구조물 정렬을 가능하게 하는 Xsight spine tracking system으로 회전방향의 위치오차를 보정함으로서 표적위치오차를 개선하고, 치료방법의 대안을 제시하고자 한다. 실험결과 6D DOF에서 표적위치오차는 $0.214{\pm}0.058mm$, 종양내부에 삽입된 2개 금표지자를 이용한 3D DOF에서 $0.673{\pm}0.142mm$, 종양외부에 삽입된 2개 금표지자를 이용한 3D DOF에서 $1.126{\pm}0.253mm$, Xsight spine tracking system의 적용 한 3D DOF에서 $0.542{\pm}0.103mm$로 나타났다. 실험결과 척추 구조물로 회전방향에 대한 보정을 시행하였을 때 표적위치에 대한 정확성이 약 48% 향상되었다. 또한, 선량분포의 일치성도 약 3%가 향상되어 일치하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 척추구조물 정렬을 병용한 Xsight spine tracking system의 회전방향에 대한 보정은 유용한 것으로 평가 되었다.

In this paper, we propose a signal processing board suitable for a semi-active laser tracking to detect an optical signal generated from the laser target designator by applying an analog trigger signal, the quadrant photodetector and a high speed ADC(analog-digital converter) sampling technique. We improved the stability by applying the averaging method to minimize the measurement error of a gaussian pulse. To evaluate the performances of the proposed methods, we implemented a prototype board and performed experiments. As a result, we implemented a frequency counter with an error 14.9ns in 50ms. PRF error code has a stability of less than 1.5% compared to the NATO standard. Applying the three point averaging method to ADC sampling, the stability of 28% in X-axis and 22% in Y-axis than one point sampling was improved.
