Due to the development of society, the demand for electric power has increased and the quality control of electric power has become an important issue. In order to efficiently perform such power management, we propose a DSP based power measurement system for multi-wire power measurement. Since the conventional power measurement system can measure only the power of one line, a power quality measurement device is required for each line in order to measure the power quality of the individual line. Respectively. The system proposed in this paper proposes a system capable of real-time measurement of power quality at up to 12 points using digital signal processing algorithm, and the prototype based on this system was evaluated through the official test report of Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute. As a result of the performance test, it was evaluated that the error range is excellent at ${\pm}0.3%$.

GPS radio occultation is a remote sensing technique probing atmospheric properties based on the fact that GPS signal is refracted and delayed by atmosphere. The FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC mission jointly developed by the USA and Taiwan is providing about 2500 occultation soundings a day on the near real-time basis. The Korean KOMPSAT-5/AOPOD system is preparing to launch for monitoring troposphere and ionosphere using a dual frequency GPS receiver and the antenna for occultation data acquisition. In this paper, we examine the methods for signal processing and the geometry analysis for GPS radio occultation, and look into the retrieval techniques for the temperature and humidity of troposphere and the electron density and scintillation of ionosphere. Using these atmospheric properties, we aim to derive the strategies for applying GPS radio occultation to space weather, for example, ionospheric TEC(total electron content) analysis for earthquake monitoring and the Open API(application programming interface) development for more effective data service.

Transient and asymmetric density distributions of butane flow have been investigated from laser image signals by developed three-dimensional digital speckle tomography. Moved signals of speckles have been captured by multiple CCD images in three angles of view simultaneously because the flows were asymmetric and transient. The signals of speckle movements between no flow and downward butane flow from a circular half opening have been calculated by a cross-correlation tracking method so that those distances can be transferred to deflection angles of laser rays fur density gradients. The three-dimensional density fields have been reconstructed from the fringe shift signal which is integrated from the deflection angle by a real-time multiplicative algebraic reconstruction technique (MART).

Biomedical signal measurement technology using images has been developed, and researches on respiration signal measurement technology for maintaining life have been continuously carried out. The existing technology measured respiratory signals through a thermal imaging camera that measures heat emitted from a person's body. In addition, research was conducted to measure respiration rate by analyzing human chest movement in real time. However, the image processing using the infrared thermal image may be difficult to detect the respiratory organ due to the external environmental factors (temperature change, noise, etc.), and thus the accuracy of the measurement of the respiration rate is low.In this study, the images were acquired using visible light and infrared thermal camera to enhance the area of the respiratory tract. Then, based on the two images, features of the respiratory tract region are extracted through processes such as face recognition and image matching. The pattern of the respiratory signal is classified through the k-nearest neighbor classifier, which is one of the statistical classification methods. The respiration rate was calculated according to the characteristics of the classified patterns and the possibility of breathing rate measurement was verified by analyzing the measured respiration rate with the actual respiration rate.

Accurate guidance during landing and take-off is important, and instrument landing system (ILS) has been used for stability and verification. Regular inspections are conducted for stable operation, and there is research to perform inspection using drones in addition to ground vehicles and measurement aircraft. Using SDR and single board computer, which can receive wide frequency range, we designed a small system that receives and processes localizer signals through GNU Radio. To check signal processing characteristics through GNU Radio, we simulated with MATLAB Simulink and confirmed the theoretical values. Difference in depth of modulation (DDM) and approach angle can be calculated when the aircraft enters the runway. And GNU Radio implemented real-time signal processing wirelessly using transmission control protocol (TCP). This gives the results within the error of 0.5% when the aircraft entered the runway center line and 0.27% for the angle of 1° degree. Compared to the inspecting and maintaining ILS signals using aircraft or ground vehicles, it is possible to implement a receiving system using small SDR that can be mounted for drone.

Since the RTP is suitable for real-time data transmission in multimedia services like VoD, AoD, and VoIP, it has been adopted as a real-time transport protocol by RTSP, H.323, and SIP. Even though the RTP protocol stack for embedded systems has been in great need for efficient support of multimedia services, such a stack has not been developed yet. In this paper, we explain embeddedRTP which supports the RTP protocol stack at the kernel level so that it is suitable for embedded systems. Since embeddedRTP is designed to reside in the UBP module, existing applications which rely ell TCP/IP services can proceed the same as before, while applications which rely on the RTP protocol stack can request HTP services through embeddedRTp API. EmbeddedRTP stores transmitted RTP packets into per session packet buffer, using the packet's port number and multimedia session information. Communications between applications and embeddedRTP is performed through system calls and signal mechanisms. Additionally, embeddedRTP API makes it possible to develop applications more conveniently. Our performance test shows that packet-processing speed of embeddedRTP is about 7.5 times faster than that oi VCL RTP for multimedia streaming services on PDA in spite that its object code size is reduced about by 58% with respect to UCL RTP's.

A key component of an autonomous mobile robot is to localize itself and build a map of the environment simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a vision-based localization and mapping algorithm of mobile robot using fisheye lens. To acquire high-level features with scale invariance, a camera with fisheye lens facing toward to ceiling is attached to the robot. These features are used in mP building and localization. As a preprocessing, input image from fisheye lens is calibrated to remove radial distortion and then labeling and convex hull techniques are used to segment ceiling and wall region for the calibrated image. At the initial map building process, features we calculated for each segmented region and stored in map database. Features are continuously calculated for sequential input images and matched to the map. n some features are not matched, those features are added to the map. This map matching and updating process is continued until map building process is finished, Localization is used in map building process and searching the location of the robot on the map. The calculated features at the position of the robot are matched to the existing map to estimate the real position of the robot, and map building database is updated at the same time. By the proposed method, the elapsed time for map building is within 2 minutes for 50㎡ region, the positioning accuracy is ±13cm and the error about the positioning angle of the robot is ±3 degree for localization.

Fine particulate matter known as PM 2.5 refers to the atmospheric particulate matter that has a diameter less than 2.5 micrometer identified as dangerous element for human health and its concentration can provide us a clear picture about air dust concentration. Humans stay indoor almost 90% of their life time and also there is no official indoor dust concentration data, so our study is focused on measuring the indoor air quality. Indoor dust data monitoring is very important in hospital environments beside that other places can also be considered for monitoring like classrooms, cements factories, computer server rooms, petrochemical storage etc. In this paper, visible light communication system is proposed by Manchester encoding technique for electromagnetic interference (EMI)-free indoor dust monitoring. Important indoor environment information like dust concentration is transferred by visible light channel in wide range. An average voltage-tracking technique is utilized for robust light detection to eliminate ambient light and low-frequency noise. The incoming light is recognized by a photo diode and are simultaneously processed by a receiver micro-controller. We can monitor indoor air quality in real-time and can take necessary action according to the result.

Various methods have been proposed to determine the defect detection of welding bead, and recently sensor data and image data inspection have been steadily announced. There are advantages that sensor data inspection is highly accurate, and two-dimensional-based image data inspection is able to determine the position of the welding bead. However, when analyzing only with sensor data, it is difficult to determine whether the welding has been performed at the correct position. On the other hand, the image data inspection does not have high accuracy due to noise and measurement errors. In this paper, we propose a method that can complement the shortcomings of each inspection method and increase its advantages to improve accuracy and speed up inspection by fusing sensor data inspection which are average current, average volt, and mixed gas data, and image data inspection methods and is implemented as software. In addition, it is intended to allow users to conveniently and intuitively analyze and grasp the results by performing analysis using a graphical user interface(GUI) and checking the data and inspection results used for the inspection. Sensor inspection is performed using the characteristics of each sensor data, and image data is inspected by applying a morphology geodesic active contour algorithm. The experimental results showed 98% accuracy, and when performing the inspection on the four image data, and sensor data the inspection time was about 1.9 seconds, indicating the performance of software that can be used as a real-time inspector in the welding process.
