With the development of RFID and USN technology, kinds of services are appeared and industrialized to maximize management, maintenance and efficiency of production. In the agricultural field, it is important to increase productivity and quality of food by managing growth environment of plants. In this paper, to apply IT technology to agriculture, we present a mobile service application called WiSEMobile which support growers to monitor and manage the information in the field from remote sites. By using the service with mobile devices, farmers can monitor the change of environment with data from sensor nodes, manage and exchange kinds of data gathered by farmers in the field.

As internet is getting advanced day by day, digital contents have been developed in various areas as killer content in the IT industry. It needs to develop lots of complicated digital content protect systems due to the enhancement and variety of user's multimedia devices. Although there are lots of protect systems based on DRM(Digital Rights Management) technology, it is difficult to provide secure protection because of the problems resulting from analog hole problem, inefficiency of key sharing and various independent protect technologies. Thus, in this paper, we propose a novel authentication and protect system based on RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) technology to solve the problems and show possibility of free content duplication and efficient contents management in smart home environments.

Today, Hospital Information System that integrates ubiquitous technologies are introduced in limited basis due to problems like standardization and limits on medical use, where responsibilities lie, legal safeguard on transmission, invasion of privacy etc. Particularly, problems like absence of tag design suitable for medical environment, compatibility issue with previous medical information system. In order to solve such problems, we have designed medical tags for the first time that are consistent with future ubiquitous environment by deciding on medically suitable field with 96bit tag offered by EFC as its base. Second, improving on previous multi-tag recognizing crash prevention algorithm, we have designed a priority anti-collision algorithm that reflects priorities on the needs in medical environment.

There have been many researches on the antenna performance degradation with the presence of the human body around the antenna structure to accomodate personal communication service [1][2]. To better understand the human body effects on the antenna resonance, radiation pattern, and input impedance, simulation was carried out with changing of the distance between antenna and lossy material. Effects on the antenna performance by the surrounding materials are also important in the case of the RFID system. It is desirable that the tag antennas for RFID system must reveal isotropic radiation pattern as well as attain the good impedance matching. In this paper, we investigated the antenna resonance and input impedance characteristic when there exist a lossy material sphere near various types of antenna at 900 MHz. In short antenna resonance was mostly affected by lossy material in the case of a rectangular loop antenna, and impedance variation was smallest in the case of a halfwave dipole.

The use of a mobile agent in hospital environment offers an opportunity to deliver better services for patients and staffs. Furthermore, medical errors will be reduced because M-health system helps to verify the medical process. Optimized security protocols and mechanisms are employed for the high performance and security. Finally, a challenge in the near future will be converge the integration of Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN) with security protocols for applying the hospital environment. We proposed secure authentication and protocol with Mobile Agent for ubiquitous sensor network under healthcare system surroundings.

Home network is a network composed of devices in home and is being expanded by evolving devices. Also, The number of digital contents in home network has been increasing steadily. But it is difficult to continually protect the rights of digital contents due to lack of interoperability among contents devices. Besides, a license has to be re-issued by DRM sever for contents transfer between devices. Thus, this paper proposes framework which can freely transfer and contents to another device through mutual device authentication and a system that can decrease overload of license management of the DRM sever and that enable device outside home network to use contents through user authentication.

본 논문에서는 다구찌 기법을 사용하여 최적설계 한 중심 주파수가 920MHz인 휴대용 RFID 리더안테나를 제안한다. 제안한 안테나는 모서리가 절단되고 정사각형 마이크로스트립 패치에 네 변으로부터 슬롯을 갖는 구조이다. 이러한 슬롯구조는 마이크로스트립 패치안테나를 소형화 시킬 수 있으며, 슬롯이 없는 구조에 비해서 약 18%의 안테나 크기 감소가 가능함을 실험을 통해 확인 하였다. 슬롯의 구조를 갖게 되는 소형의 안테나는 복잡한 설계변수에 따라 변화하므로 최적의 안테나 설계를 위해서는 해석 및 시험단계에 수많은 반복이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 해석 및 실험 횟수를 최소화할 수 있는 실험계획법인 다구찌법의 직교배열 표를 도입하여 설계할 때의 주요 요소들의 민감도 해석을 수행하고 그 영향성을 분석하여 해석결과를 바탕으로 설계반복을 최소화 하면서 최적의 구조를 갖는 안테나를 설계 하였으며 유전율이 4.4이고, 두께가 3.2mm 인 Epoxy 1.6T의 기판상에 제작한 안테나 특성에 대한 실험 결과를 제시하였다.

As RFID systems are applied to various fields and applications such as supply chain management, asset management, location based applications etc. the requirements becomes diverse. For example, Much higher performance, TCP/IP protocol stack are required in some applications. However, low end processors based systems such as 8051 processor can not meet such requirements due to their low processing capacity and limited size of memory. In this paper a UHF band RFID system which meets the ISO 18000-6 TYPE C specification with ARM920T-based processor is implemented and tested.

The outpaced growth of online channel sales over the traditional retail sales is a result from superior shopping convenience that online stores offer to their customers. One major source of online shopping convenience is a personalized store that reduces customer's shopping time. Personalization of an online store is accomplished by using various in-store shopping behavior data that the Internet and Web Technology provides. Brick-and-mortar retailers have not been able to make this type of data available for their stores until now. However, RFID technology has now opened a new possibility to personalization of traditional retail stores. In this paper, we propose BRIMPS (BRIck-and-Mortar Personalization System) as a system that brick-and-mortar retailers may use to personalize their business and become more competitive against online retailers.

Near Field Communication is an emerging short-range wireless connectivity technology that offers proximity and different operating modes. Particularly, NFC technology has the potential to revolutionize mobile applications like payment and ticketing because NFC is more complex and mutual connectivity than RFID as the simple tag reader. Finally, NFC security technology defines the robust security protocols. This paper will specify and analyze the NFC security technology, and study the chance and its beneficial effect of the UICC card as the NFC Secure Element.
