  • Researches and developments on BEMS are performed world-widely through sustainable management in various conditions. However, there are many obstacles to adapt the system in existing buildings because it needs highly expensive equipments, which are designed for newly built buildings, to install. Therefore, there are numerous limits exist when applying the BEMS in established buildings. The purpose of this study estimates the optimization of RF output power in WSN(Wireless Sensor Networks), which is the essential technology to develop PEMS. The results of this study is as follows ; 1) Applying WSN technique in buildings was possible. 2) As RF output power increases, the number of relay node reduced, therefore, the WSN showed more stability. 3) When estimating optimal RF output power in school, it should be considered between the number of relay node and RF output power. 4) Considering battery consumption and possibility of reception, the best suited RF output power is -20dbm in apartment house.

  • A strain gauge weight measuring instrumentation system was designed with RF sensor network facilities. In the sensor module system data conversion and a series of signal processing were totally equipped. 16 strain gauges are incoming sensors and each output of the strain gauge was amplified and filtered for proper analog signal processing. Several measuring instrumentation OP amps and general purposed OP amps were used. 12 bits A/D converters converted analog signals to digital bits and a PIC microprocessor controlled the 16 channels of strain gauges. RF RS232 modules were used for wireless communication between the PIC microprocessor and an Ethernet host far a remote sensor monitoring system development.

  • With the progress of USN technology, fields to which wireless sensor node is applicable are increased under a condition that it holds a lot of problems to solve for betterment. One of the problems which acts as an obstacle to USN industry diffusion is the wireless sensor node battery exchange to their individual life cycle. Exchanging the battery of so many sensor nodes one by one requires a great deal of times and costs. Such problem is against the convenience supply -aim by applying USN technology. In this paper, using RF wireless power transmission system that power transmission / harvesting module from a distance of 5 m and the power of 10 dBm with a current of 1 mA or more for Sensor Nodes in lithium-polymer battery charging system tested and verified.

  • These days there have been trying to fuse the various of IoT (Internet of Things) technology over the industrial field. However the complicated IoT System structure comprised of sensor devices, gateway, network server, and application server causes the difficulties to the system implementation and the increment of installation cost, thereby preventing IoT system deployment in the industry fit for small size network environment. In this paper, authors propose a novel IoT system architecture that is useful in the industry field to be implemented by the small size network with low cost. Also, we implement the infrastructure to RF433 wireless sensor network, the gateway on ARDUINO YUN, and the application server using AMP (Apache, PHP, MySQL) package and then present a power efficient management scheme for sensor devices.

To overcome these trouble problems such as a power limitation and a estimation complexity that the general passive telemetry sensor system including It chip has, the principle of inductive coupling was applied to the modeling of a passive telemetry RF capacitive humidity sensor system and its capacitance was estimatedd by the RLSE algorithm. Specially, by introducing the optimal forgetting factor, we showed that the accuracy of its estimation was improved even in the time varying system and also the convergence time was reduced.

  • In emergency rescue situations, the localization accuracy of the rescue requestor is a very important factor in determining the success or failure of the rescue. Indoors where Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is not operated, there is no choice but to use Wi-Fi or LTE signals. However, the performance of the current emergency rescue system utilizing those RF signals is exceedingly low. In this study, the effectiveness of the surface correlation technology using the accumulated signal pattern of RF signals was verified in relation to the emergency localization technology. To validate the proposed system, we configured and tested an emergency rescue scenario in multi-floors building. When the emergency rescue was requested, it was confirmed that the initial localization error was large owing to the short length of the accumulated signal pattern. However, the localization error decreased over time, which eventually led to the accurate location information being delivered to the rescuer.

  • This paper investigates the method to implement a RF (Radio Frequency) energy harvesting sensor node and to build a sensor network using a CATV network and a leaky coaxial cable. The power supply of a sensor node is designed with the WPTS (Wireless Power Transfer System) receiver operating at 915MHz. A sensor network has limited coverage by the loss of RF signal at a wireless transmission link. The paper proposes to build a sensor network that the BLE signal of a sensor and the signal of a WPTS power transmitter are transmitted through a coaxial cable of a CATV network by utilizing WOC (WiFi over Coax) technology and radiates at a leaky coaxial cable. The length of a leaky coaxial cable and the total loss of a wire link are allowed to the point that the RSSI of a sensor node is more than the minimum value (-78dBm) and lead to extend wireless coverage.
