In this study, wearable ECG measurement system was implemented for health monitoring during daily life. A wearable belt-type ECG electrode worn around the chest by measuring the real-time ECG is produced in order to minimize the inconvenience in wearing. The measured ECG signal is transmitted via an ultra low power consumption wireless data communications unit to personal computer using Zigbee-compatible wireless sensor node. The ECG monitoring program is developed at end user which is personal computer. The measured ECG contains many noises mainly due to motion artifacts. For ECG signal processing, adaptive filtering process is proposed which can reduce motion artifacts efficiently and accurately than digital filter. The experimental results show that a reliable performance with high quality ECG signal can be achieved using this wearable ECG monitoring system.

It is predicted the mass retirement of the post-war generation and the lack of young people according to reduces the recruitment. Therefore, industry fields are concerned by the low level of occupational safety and health from issued problem in a variety of industries; the charge of expanding business range/multi-functional, black box of technology, difficulty of systematic training, relative decrease in the skill of workers, loss of know-how in the field of information followed restricted site information. In response to these problems, it is necessary to establish the long-termly and actively based on for the adoption of a safety and health management techniques utilizing IT, which is digital assistant(tablet PC, PDA, etc.), RFID/USN/ICT, database systems, and etc. In this study, we developed and evaluated a worker's safety sensing apparatus using smart phone. The apparatus may be useful to prevent accidents in the construction industry as well as confined space work.

u-City는 첨단 정보통신 인프라와 유비퀴터스 정보 처리를 도시공간에 융합해서 도시민에게 편리하고, 건강하며, 안전하고, 쾌적한 생활을 누리도록 하는 목표로삶의 질을 향상시키는 신개념의 도시이다. 도시기반시설인 도로는 이러한 u-City를 구축하는데 있어 핵심 구성요소 이지만, 도로 공간에서 발생하는 인명사고는 u-City의 목표인 안전한 도시를 구축하는데 있어 걸림돌이 되고 있는 것이 현실이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 안전한 도시 구축을 위하여 USN 기술을 활용하여 횡단보도 주변에서 보행자의 안전을 지원하는 시마트 연석에 대한 개념과 개발 내용을 소개하고자한다. 스마트 연석은 도로 연석과 동일한 크기로 설치되어 지상에 돌출되지 않으므로 주위 환경과 잘어울리며, 상부 모서리에 경광등이 점멸되어 운전자로 하여금 횡단보도 지역임을 쉽게 알 수 있도록 하고, 측면에서 바닥비춤조명을 비춤으로써 운전자의 시인성을 높여 안전사고를 미연에 방지하는 기능을 가지고 있다.

RFID 기술은 전파 신호, 즉 라디오 주파수를 이용한 무선 인터페이스를 통해 사물의 정보를 원격으로 주고 받을 수 있는 기술로서, 기존 바코드의 단점을 보완하여 사물의정보화를 촉진함으로써 향후 USN 환경의 핵심 기술로 활용될 것이다. 특히 RFID 기술은 기존의 자동식별 매체에 비해 인식거리 및 제작가격 등에서 서비스 창출과 시장 활성화에 유리한 특징을 갖고 있으므로 현재 물류 및 유통 업계를 중심으로 테스트베드구축과 실증실험이 진행되고 있다. 따라서, 본 고에서는 국제 표준화기구인 ISO/IEC및 RFID 기술 규격화 단체인 EPC global, 그리고 국내 표준화 그룹을 중심으로, RFID기술의 표준화 및 관련 기술 동향을 정리한다.

Optimal design of panel with trapezoidal type stiffeners was studied using linear and nonlinear deformation theories. Also analysis method was using closed-form analysis and finite difference energy methods, respectively. Various bucking load factors are obatined for stiffened laminated composite panel with trapezoidal type stiffeners and various aspect ratios, which are made from Carbon/Epoxy USN 125 prepreg and are simply-supported on four edges under uniaxial compression. Optimal design analyses are carried out by the nonlinear search optimizer, ADS.

Construction CALS has contributed much to the improvement of construction management. Recently, the ubiquitous technology brings another opportunities for expanding tile business horizon in construction. The government policies to upgrade the information technologies in Korean offer an environment in which practical application of ubiquitous becomes more practical. To maintain the level of competitiveness, construction companies need to pay attention to the chance of ubiquitous technologies. This paper introduces the research movement in the construction industry in an attempt to find out the feasibility of ubiquitous technologies such as RFID, USN, etc. The construction process, which is executed in the natural environment, will benefit from the state-of-are information technologies in terms of improved communication interface.

Nowadays, source of MEMS, USN, Hybrid parts pay attention to energy harvesting. On this paper, energy harvesting was studied using piezoelectric effect. And, piezoelectric generator was designed and fabricated. Generators were designed by FEM simulation program and generators were made by attaching cymbal type metal plates on upper and bottom sides of a disc type piezoelectric ceramic. Using fabricated generators, output voltages dependant on thickness of ceramic, displacement of vibration, frequency of vibration were measured.
