  • In this study, we propose a compensation method of raw LiDAR data with noise and noise filtering for signal processing of LiDAR sensors during the development phase. The raw LiDAR data include constant errors generated by delays in transmitting and receiving signals, which can be resolved by LiDAR signal compensation. The signal compensation consists of two stage. First one is LiDAR sensor calibration for a compensation of geometric distortion. Second is walk error compensation. LiDAR data also include fluctuation and outlier noise, the latter of which is removed by data filtering. In this study, we compensate for the fluctuation by using the Kalman filter method, and we remove the outlier noise by applying a Gaussian weight function.

  • The function estimation characteristics of neural networks can be used sensor signal estimation of the nuclear power plants. In case of applying the neural network to the signal estimation of redundant sensors, it is an important problem that the redundant sensor signals used as the input signals of neural network should be validated. In this paper, we simplify the conventional parity space method in order to input the validated signal to the neural network and lso propose the sensor signal validation method, which estimates the reliable sensor output combining the neural network with the simplified parity space method. The acceptability of the proposed process variable estimation method is demonstrated by using the simulation data in safety injection accident of the nuclear power plant.

  • Recently, owing to the development of ubiquitous sensor network and mobile communication technologies, many studies on healthcare system are being carried out. In this paper, we have designed and implemented a mobile u-Healthcare system based on sensor network. The u-Healthcare system is composed of three components: wireless sensor network at home, healthcare center located at remote site, and gateway which relays sensing physiological signals to healthcare center. In order to measure patient's physiological signal three sensors are used: three channel ECG sensor, pulse oximeter, and blood pressure sensor. Each sensor is mounted on a mote which can send gathered signal to the base node using Zigbee communication protocol. Once the base node receives physiological signal from each sensor, the client in the base node transfers the signal to the healthcare center. The received physiological signal at the healthcare center is analyzed and processed using various algorithms. The processed results are compared to the standard healthcare database and appropriate treatment including dietetics and exercise cure would be sent to the patient as feedback using SMS message or healthcare center web site. Each patient can check and manage one's health state every day using the healthcare system and gain a recovery under the treatments from minor health problems.

For this propose, we develop a signal process board and the object motion detect algorithm using to analyzing output signal of the CW Doppler sensor. Output signal from CW Doppler sensor is analog I and analog Q. The CW Doppler sensor shows phase I and phase Q of object differently when the object approach, stop, drop by sensor. We develop an algorithm that can detect object by discrimination information of phase using the CW Doppler sensor. The verification use firmware of applied hardware and algorithm. Then, the motion information can be confirming output depending on motion object by experiment normally. As a result, we check that the sensing information output by following motion of object and confirm an algorithm and motion of signal processing board.

  • A traffic detection system is a device that collects traffic information around an intersection. Most existing traffic detection systems provide very limited traffic information for signal control due to the restriction of vehicle detection area. A signal control scheme determines the transition among signal phases and the time that a phase lasts for. However, the existing signal control scheme do not resolve the traffic congestion effectively since they use restricted traffic information. In this paper, a new traffic detection system with a zone division signal control scheme is proposed to provide correct and detail traffic information and decrease the vehicle's waiting time at the intersection. The traffic detection system obtains traffic information in a way of vehicle-to-roadside communication between vehicles and sensor network. A new signal control scheme is built to exploit the sufficient traffic information provided by the proposed traffic detection system efficiently. Simulation results show that the proposed signal control scheme has 121 % and 56 % lower waiting time and delay time of vehicles at an intersection than other fuzzy signal control scheme.

  • Interference reduction method of vehicle collision avoidance sensor which is used for the low speed electric vehicle has been investigated. Various methods were attempted for the vehicle collision avoidance distance sensor, which received a transmitted signal from a front driving vehicle to measure the distance between two vehicles, to avoid interference by the own transmitter signal toward the rear following vehicle. In this study, -12dB of interference cancellation ratio was realized by using the phase cancellation method to the transmitted signal from the own vehicle. Proposed phase cancellation method is regarded to have the advantage of continuous monitoring in comparison to the conventional time sharing transmitting and receiving method.
