Recently, various ubiquitous networking services are developed and implemented for easy living. In general, new ubiquitous networking services require the new infrastructure including equipments and devices. However, it is difficult to replace existing infrastructure and devices with new ones in the home or office because of cost and maintenance problems. In this paper, we developed small-size web based RF wireless communication systems for sensor network applications. The designed RF systems are implemented using commercial system on a chip (SoC) on existing infrastructure and devices. The developed systems are tested for light control and temperature sensing and they are applied to sensor network training courses for students and engineer as well as various practical applications.

Recently, with the rapid development of android-based smartphones, it is becomes a major security issue that the case of Android platform is an open platform. so it is easy to be a target of mobile virus penetration and hacking. Even there are a variety of security mechanisms to prevent the vulnerable points of the Android platform but the reason of most of the security mechanisms were designed at application-level that highly vulnerable to the attacks directly to the operating system or attacks using the disadvantages of an application's. It is necessary that the complementary of the android platform kernel blocks the kernel vulnerability and the application vulnerability. In this paper, we proposed a secure system using linux-based android kernel applied to LIDS(Linux Intrusion Detection and Defense System) and applied a smart phone with s5pc110 chip. As a result, the unauthorized alteration of the application was prevented with a proposed secure system.

Although most of the people have studied English for a long time, their English conversation capability is low. When we provide them portable conversational-type English learners by the application of computer and information process technology, such portable learners can be used to enhance their English conversation capability by their conventional conversation exercises. The core technology to develop such learner is the development of a voice recognition and synthesis module under an embedded environment. This paper deals with voice recognition and synthesis, prototype of the learner module using a DSP(Digital Signal Processing) chip for voice processing, voice playback function, flash memory file system, PC download function using USB ports, English conversation text function by the use of SMC(Smart Media Card) flash memory, LCD display function, MP3 music listening function, etc. Application areas of the prototype equipped with such various functions are vast, i.e. portable language learners, amusement devices, kids toy, control by voice, security by the use of voice, etc.

In this paper, an improved one-against-one support vector machine algorithm is used to classify multiple power quality disturbances. To solve the problem of parameter selection, an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed to optimize the parameters of the support vector machine. By proposing a new inertia weight expression, the particle swarm optimization algorithm can effectively conduct a global search at the outset and effectively search locally later in a study, which improves the overall classification accuracy. The experimental results show that the improved particle swarm optimization method is more accurate than a grid search algorithm optimization and other improved particle swarm optimizations with regard to its classification of multiple power quality disturbances. Furthermore, the number of support vectors is reduced.

This paper proposes two types of subharmonic RF receiver front-end (called LMV) where, in a single stage, quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (QVCO) is stacked on top of a low noise amplifier. Since the QVCO itself plays the role of the single-balanced subharmonic mixer with the dc current reuse technique by stacking, the proposed topology can remove the RF mixer component in the RF front-end and thus reduce the chip size and the power consumption. Another advantage of the proposed topologies is that many challenges of the direct conversion receiver can be easily evaded with the subharmonic mixing in the QVCO itself. The intermediate frequency signal can be directly extracted at the center taps of the two inductors of the QVCO. Using a 65 nm complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology, the proposed subharmonic RF front-ends are designed. Oscillating at around 2.4 GHz band, the proposed subharmonic LMVs are compared in terms of phase noise, voltage conversion gain and double sideband noise figure. The subharmonic LMVs consume about 330 ㎼ dc power from a 1-V supply.

The goal of this study is to develop experiment monitoring system of agriculture fields using ZigBee wireless modules. Soil moisture, ambient temperature, atmospheric pressure and intensity of sunlight are the most important factorsto grow a wheat crop and other vegetables. In orderto monitorthe factorssoil moisture (YL69), air pressure (BMP180), temperature (DS18B20), photoresistor were used for sensing environment data. The TI CC2530 RF SoC chip was used in the system. ZigBee modules were connected to star topology. ZigBee modules send data wirelessly to a data center. This data can be displayed and analyzed on the main monitoring program as needed also sent to the client mobile. Characteristics of the sensors were determined by experiment results.

This paper presents setting up a laboratory-scale testbed to estimate the aging of power MOSFET devices and integrated power modules by measuring its on-state voltage and current. Based on the aging mechanisms of the component inside the power module (e.g., bond-wire, solder layer, and semiconductor chip), a system to measure the on-state resistance of device-under-test (DUT) is designed and experimented: a full-bridge circuit applies current stress to DUT, and a temperature chamber controls the ambient temperature of DUT during the aging test. The on-state resistance of SiC MOSFET measured by the proposed testbed was increased by 2.5%-3% after 44-hour of the aging test.

The paper investigates how the semiconductor and electric vehicle industries are addressing safety and security concerns in the era of autonomous driving, emphasizing the prioritization of safety over security for market competitiveness. Collaboration between these sectors is deemed essential for maintaining competitiveness and value. The research suggests solutions such as advanced autonomous driving technologies and enhanced battery safety measures, with the integration of AI chips playing a pivotal role. However, challenges persist, including the limitations of big data and potential errors in semiconductor-related issues. Legacy automotive manufacturers are transitioning towards software-driven cars, leveraging artificial intelligence to mitigate risks associated with safety and security. Conflicting safety expectations and security concerns can lead to accidents, underscoring the continuous need for safety improvements. We analyzed the expansion of electric vehicles as a means to enhance safety within a framework of converging security concerns, with AI chips being instrumental in this process. Ultimately, the paper advocates for informed safety and security decisions to drive technological advancements in electric vehicles, ensuring significant strides in safety innovation.

Ge is becoming an increasingly popular semiconductor material with high Si compatibility for on-chip optical interconnect technology. For a better manifestation of the meritorious material properties of Ge, its surface treatment should be performed satisfactorily before the electronic and photonic components are fabricated. Ex-situ rapid thermal annealing (RTA) processes with different gases were carried out to examine the effects of the annealing gases on the thin-film quality of Ge grown epitaxially on Si substrates. The Ge-on-Si samples were prepared in different structures using the same equipment, reduced-pressure chemical vapor deposition (RPCVD), and the samples annealed in $N_2$, forming gas (FG), and $O_2$ were compared with the unannealed (deposited and only cleaned) samples to confirm the improvements in Ge quality. To evaluate the thin-film quality, room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurements were performed. Among the compared samples, the $O_2$-annealed samples showed the strongest PL signals, regardless of the sample structures, which shows that ex-situ RTA in the $O_2$ environment would be an effective technique for the surface treatment of Ge in fabricating Ge devices for optical computing systems.
