  • This paper proposes a remote monitoring system, which manages crops' growth environment on a real-time basis by applying to greenhouses Green U-IT technology connecting environment control equipment such as temperature sensors, soil sensors, and moisture censors with computers. Information on greenhouses' environment is stored in a database, and by utilizing linear regression analysis and differential item functioning (DIF) analysis, optimal information on growth and environment is extracted from stored information in the form of items desired by users, and compared, analyzed, and monitored. By linking greenhouse environment control system with web environment and remotely controlling the system, users do not need to visit farmland and can remotely control greenhouses' environment on a real-time basis. Therefore farmhouses' production efficiency may be enhanced by continuously providing optimal growth environment for plants.

  • Bilateration using two fixed nodes has been used in the field of the real time indoor location system in the narrow space such as building or ship passage. However, as the distance between the fixed nodes increases or any obstructions exist in their zone, it is difficult to detect the location of mobile node(user) due to the degradation of its reception ratio. In order to compensate for these problems, this paper presents, based on IEEE 802.15.4a chirp signal, a new real time indoor location system using stride measurement algorithm which can calculate the location through sensors attached to user. The proposed system consists of an ultrasonic sensor to measure the leg length, a geomagnetic sensor to recognize the user's orientation, and an inertial sensor to obtain the angle between the legs. The experimental results are shown that the proposed system has twice or more accurate output compared with conventional indoor location method in the section which is partially out of communication reachability.

  • This study suggests the improvement of ROK Navy salvage and rescue diving system. ROK Navy system experiences characteristic restrictions for the environmental loading. These restrictions are known to deteriorate the efficiency of Navy salvage and rescue diving activity. In this study, the measurements were suggested to improve the efficiency. To achieve the goal, a comprehensive analysis is conducted using the published data including those of USN, NOAA and IANTD. Based on the analysis, suggestions were made. The technical diving techniques may be introduced to improve current ROK Navy diving system in limited areas. By adopting that technique, decompression procedures and underwater operation can be improved.

  • According to the development of ubiquitous and computer techniques, the application fields of sensor network have been enlarged. We present the design and implementation of sensor node which is the most important component of sensor network techniques in this paper. The proposed sensor node is implemented with 8-bit microprocessor, and temperature and humidity sensing device to gather temperature and humidity data in real world. It achieves low production cost and user convenience, and also has the feature os existing commercial sensor node. Though our experiments, we show that deviation of temperature and humidity are $5^{\circ}C$ and 23.2% respectively, and the proposed sensor node is reliable in real applications.

  • In Korean domestic construction industry, they tend to emphasize completion of structures, but on the other hand to neglect structure maintenance, before mid nineteen-nineties when consecutive structure collapse accidents arisen. Presently, facility monitoring systems are restrictively applying to large size facilities with wired method, and there are some limitations to apply these systems to small and mid size facilities throughout the country. According to the latest tendency, there is rapid growth of ubiquitous related technologies such as sensor, sensor network, wireless communications, and also there are large amount of efforts to apply these technologies to construction fields. However, these researches put values on technology itself, but researches for applications and practical use of these technologies are insufficient. Especially, researches about these technologies to apply facility monitoring field is still less unsatisfactory. Therefore, this paper will focused on methodologies about module structure by stages to realize facility monitoring systems in ubiquitous environment.

  • Recently increasing usage of smart phones so, the application field of convergence industry between IT technology using smart phone-based mobile communication networks and other industry branches is expanding. In addition, R&D technologies in other fields are applied to smart phone applications effectively in order to develop products and support daily life more convenient. However, it is very hard to control these products and there is no efficient solution for this problem when many people are sent to specific area for big events, such as Biennale, Film Festival, EXPO, and so on. In order to solve this problem, this paper describes a network-based ticket reservation system and its organization using augmented reality on smart phone and mobile communication networks.

  • The CSS(Chirp Spread Spectrum) technology is used for developing various WPAN(Wireless Personal Area Network) application fields in general, and it can be adapted to implement localization systems especially using SDS-TWR(Symmetric Double Sided - Two Way Ranging). But the ranging errors are occurred in many practical applications due to some interferences by some experiments. Thus, the compensation algorithm for localization is required for developing localization applications. The suggested compensation algorithm that is named KF_EDR(Kalman Filter and Equivalent Distance Rate) for localization in order to reduce the ranging errors is suggested in this paper. The KF_EDR compensation algorithm for localization is mainly composed of the AEDR(Algorithm of Equivalent Distance Rate) and the Kalman Filter. It is confirmed that the improved error ratio of the KF_EDR are 10.5% and 4.2% compared with the AEDR algorithm in lobby and stadium. From the results, it is analyzed that the KF_EDR can be widely used for some localization system in ubiquitous society.

  • As following the development of the USN technology, sensor node used in sensor network has capability of quick data process and storage to support efficient network configuration is enabled. In addition, tree-based structure was transformed to cluster in the construction of sensor network. However, query processing based on existing tree structure could be inefficient under the cluster-based network. In this paper, we suggest energy efficient query processing mechanism using filtering through data attribute classification in cluster-based sensor network. The suggestion mechanism use advantage of cluster-based network so reduce energy of query processing and designed more intelligent query dissemination. And, we prove excellence of energy efficient side with MATLab.
