In this Paper, we propose an Energy Efficient Time Synchronization technique based on WUSB (Wireless USB) over WBAN (Wireless Body Area Networks) protocol required for Wearable Computer systems. For this purpose, the proposed Time Synchronization algorithm minimizes power consumption and estimates time information with accuracy. It is executed on the basis of WUSB over WBAN protocol at each sensor node comprising peripherals of a wearable computer system. It minimizes power consumption by exchanging time stamp packets and forming a hierarchical structure.

As the demand for indoor location recognition system has been rapidly increased in accordance with the increasing use of smart devices and the increasing use of augmented reality, indoor positioning systems(IPS) using BLE (Bluetooth Lower Energy) beacons and UWB (Ultra Wide Band) have been developed. In this paper, a positioning plate is generated by using trilateration technique based on BLE Beacon and using RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator). The resultant value is used to calculate the PDR-based coordinates using the positioning element of the Inertial Measurement Unit sensor, We propose a precise indoor positioning algorithm that combines RSSI and PDR technique. Based on the plate algorithm proposed in this paper, the experiment have done at large scale indoor sports arena and airport, and the results were successfully verified by 65% accuracy improvement with average 2.2m error.

This work shows how to design a robot structure and to control to overcome obstacles while traveling through ducts of various diameters and shapes by three-legged robot. Circuits are centered in the body to connect the three wheel bodies that are driven around the center body with the 4-section slider link structure. Also, the springs are used to contract and expand the robot legs so that it can be caparable of various environments. Geared motor, spring, and belt were selected based on the static and dynamic calculation to be suitable to horizontal and vertical travels. The center body is equipped with a camera and the distance sensors, and a control algorithms are implemented so that it can be successfully performed in L-type and T-type ducts. Using UWB modules and trilateration algorithm, the location of the duct-cleaning robot inside the duct could be identified successfully.

Smart City, a key application area of the AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things), provides various services in safety, security, and healthcare sectors through location tracking and location-based services. an IPS (Indoor Positioning System) is required to implement location-based services, and wireless communication technologies such as WiFi, UWB (Ultra-wideband), and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) are being applied. BLE, which enables data transmission and reception with low power consumption, can be applied to various IoT devices such as sensors and beacons at a low cost, making it one of the most suitable wireless communication technologies for indoor positioning. BLE utilizes the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) to estimate the distance, but due to the influence of multipath fading, which causes variations in signal strength, it results in an error of several meters. In this paper, we conducted research on a path loss model that can be applied to BLE IPS for proximity services, and confirmed that optimizing the free space propagation loss coefficient can reduce the distance error between the Tx and Rx devices.

Localization systems can be used with various circumstances like measuring population movement and rescue technology, even in security technology (like infiltration detection system). Vision sensors such as camera often used for localization is susceptible with light and temperature, and can cause invasion of privacy. In this paper, we used ultra-wideband radar technology (which is not limited by aforementioned problems) and machine learning techniques to measure the number and location of occupants in other indoor spaces behind the wall. We used four different algorithms and compared their results, including extremely randomized tree for four different situations; detect the number of occupants in a classroom, split the classroom into 28 locations and check the position of occupant, select one out of the 28 locations, divide it into 16 fine-grained locations, and check the position of occupant, and checking the positions of two occupants (existing in different locations). Overall, four algorithms showed good results and we verified that detecting the number and location of occupants are possible with high accuracy using machine learning. Also we have considered the possibility of service expansion using the oneM2M standard platform and expect to develop more service and products if this technology is used in various fields.

As Single households increases for reason of communication development, extending human life, there are many problems occuring all over the world. In order to solve this problem with an invasion of privacy and manintain a healthy life, this paper suggest non-contact type bio-signal measurement system using IR-Radar, displacement sensor and Pan-Tilt system. The proposed system can increse the distance of measured respiration from 1m to over 8m, which is comprised of two IR-Radar for location tracking, one displacement sensor for non-contact type bio-signal measurement and one stepping motor drive system. The proposed system is verified through experiments and were confirmed the possibility.

This paper describes design of a 10.525 GHz self oscillating mixer semiconductor IC chip combining voltage controlled oscillator and frequency mixer using silicon CMOS technology for Doppler radar applications. The p-core type VCO included in the self oscillating mixer minimizes the noise contained in the transmitted signal. This noise minimization increases the sensing distance and acts in a direction favorable to the reaching distance and the sensitivity of the motion detection sensor. Simulation results for phase noise show that a VCO designed as a P-core has a noise characteristic of -106.008 dBc / Hz at 1 MHz offset and -140.735 dBc / Hz at 25 MHz offset compared to a VCO designed with N-core and NP-core showed excellent noise characteristics. If a self-oscillating mixer is implemented using a p-core designed VCO in this study, a motion sensor with excellent range and reach sensitivity will be produced.

This paper proposes an approach to the classification of respiratory states of humans based on visual information. An ultra-wide-band radar sensor acquired respiration signals, and the respiratory states were classified based on two-dimensional (2D) images instead of one-dimensional (1D) vectors. The 1D vector-based classification of respiratory states has limitations in cases of various types of normal respiration. The deep neural network model was employed for the classification, and the model learned the 2D images of respiration signals. Conventional classification methods use the value of the quantified respiration values or a variation of them based on regression or deep learning techniques. This paper used 2D images of the respiration signals, and the accuracy of the classification showed a 10% improvement compared to the method based on a 1D vector representation of the respiration signals. In the classification experiment, the respiration states were categorized into three classes, normal-1, normal-2, and abnormal respiration.
