In this paper, we present two types of vision algorithm that mobile robot has CCD camera. for obstacle avoidance. This is simple algorithm that compare with grey level from input images. Also, The mobile robot depend on image processing and move command from PC host. we has been studied self controlled mobile robot system with CCD camera. This system consists of digital signal processor, step motor, RF module and CCD camera. we used wireless RF module for movable command transmitting between robot and host PC. This robot go straight until recognize obstacle from input image that preprocessed by edge detection, converting, thresholding. And it could avoid the obstacle when recognize obstacle by line histogram intensity. Host PC measurement wave from various line histogram each 20 Pixel. This histogram Is ( x , y ) value of pixel. For example, first line histogram intensity wave from ( 0, 0 ) to ( 0, 197 ) and last wave from ( 280, 0 ) to ( 280, 197 ). So we find uniform wave region and nonuniform wave region. The period of uniform wave is obstacle region. we guess that algorithm is very useful about moving robot for obstacle avoidance.

Analyzing the ECG signal, we can find heart disease, for example, arrhythmia and myocardial infarction, etc. Particularly, detecting arrhythmia is more important, because serious arrhythmia can take away the life from patients within ten minutes. In this paper, we would like to introduce the signal processing for ECG analysis and the device made for wireless communication of ECG data. In the signal processing, the wavelet transform decomposes the ECG signal into high and low frequency components using wavelet function. Recomposing the high frequency bands including QRS complex, we can detect QRS complex and eliminate the noise from the original ECG signal. To recognize the ECG signal pattern, we adopted the polynomial approximation partially and statistical method. The ECG signal is divided into small parts based on QRS complex, and then, each part is approximated to the polynomials. Comparing the approximated ECG pattern with the database, we can detect and classify the heart disease. The ECG detection device consists of amplifier, filters, A/D converter and RF module. After amplification and filtering, the ECG signal is fed through the A/D converter to be digitalized. The digital ECG data is transmitted to the personal computer through the RF transceiver module and serial port.

In this paper, design and implementation of a very compact and cost effective front-end module are presented for IEEE 802.16 FWA(fixed Wireless Access) in the 40 GHz band. A multi-layer LTCC(Low Temperature Co-fred Ceramic) technology with cavity process to achieve excellent electrical performances is used to fabricate the front-end module. The wirebond matching circuit design of switch input/output port and waveguide transition to connect antenna are optimally designed to keep transmission loss low. To reduce the size of the front-end module, the dielectric waveguide filter is developed instead of the metal waveguide filter. The LTCC is composed of 6 layers(with the thickness of a layer of 100 um) having a relative dielectric constant of 7.1. The front-end module is implemented in a volume of $30{\times}7{\times}0.8mm^3$ and shows an overall insertion loss < 5.3 dB, and image rejection value > 49 dB.

This paper shows the design of Active antenna which appled to 5.5GHz RF module for local wireless communication system. The LNA, which was designed Super low noise HJ FET of NE3210S01, is used to obtain a good noise figure characteristics. And the microstrip patch antenna was designed to obtain omnidirectional antenna characteristics. The measured LNA gain is 15 dB, input & output return loss is under -20 dB and VSWR under 1.5. The Single microstrip patch antenna input return loss is under -29 45, VSWR under 1.2.

Wireless network-on-chip (WNoC) can alleviate critical path problem of existing typical NoCs by integrating radio-frequency module on router. In this paper, core-connection-aware genetic algorithm-based core and WIR mapping methodology at small world WNoC is presented. The methodology could optimize the critical path between cores with heavy communication. The 33% of average latency improvement is achieved compared to random mapping methodology.

In this paper, we proposes the design of laundry system for low power and smart management. The low power system configures the network with the RF communication module that turn on/off periodically, power consumption less than operating the module all the time without it toggles. The smart management is RFID Laundry Management System (LMS), in order to provide high services, low operation costs and better monitoring. The proposed system consists of RFID tag, wireless RFID hanger and MFC software. To compare with other existing RFID system, our system was developed as a web application. Therefore, customer can check their cloth status through web page or smartphone devices. RFID reader was designed on hanger to make our system enables reliable running effectively. Some results on the performance of an implementation are presented.

Newly commercialized wireless capsule endoscope has many advantages compared to conventional push-type endoscopes. However, it is moved by the peristaltic waves. Therefore, it can not diagnose desired zones actively. In this paper, a locomotive mechanism for wireless capsule endoscope is proposed to increase the efficiency of endoscopy. We designed and fabricated a prototype using SMA springs and bio-mimetic clamping device. The hollow space in the prototype is allocated for further system integration of a camera module, a RF module and a battery. And the sequential control scheme is employed to improve the efficiency of its locomotion. To validate the performance of the locomotive mechanism, experiments on a silicone rubber pad and in vitro tests are carried out. The results of the experiments indicate that proposed mechanism is effective in harsh environments such as digestive organs of a human.

A quadruped stair robot introduced here plays a role in monitoring and moving some place where an operator can not reach or when he may not keep watching. It has several features that travels and poses variable position by four caterpillars and quadruped typed arms, transmits an image and command data via RF wireless and network communication. The robot can balance itself when it moves up and down on a slope by using the quadruped mechanism. The robot vision scans ahead before it moves, and the captured image is transferred to a main computer via a RF image module. The main computer analyzes the obstacle, and when it is found the obstacle, the robot avoids from the obstacle and keep moving f...

This paper describes a development of ship's refer-container remote monitoring system(RRMS). This system consists of Master, repeater with a switched mode power supply(SMPS) and slave terminal. Slave terminal is composed of wireless MODEM and microprocessor part, checks its conditions like temperature. humidity & etc through the interrogate port(IP) of refer-container. and transmits their data to master. Repeater's role is that connect so that signal which is transmitted from Slave Terminal by Master may not receive electric wave interference by container boxes. We verify the effectiveness of proposed system through the experimental works in container yard and ship.
