  • With the rapid development of spatial infrastructure in US, Europe, Japan, China and India, there is no doubt that the next generation Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) will improve the integrity, accuracy, reliability and availability of the position solution. GNSS is becoming an essential element of personal, commercial and public infrastructure and consequently part of our daily lives. However, the applicability of GPS in supporting a range of location-sensitive applications such as location based services in an urban environment is severely curtailed by the interference of the 3D urban settings. To characterize and gain in-depth understanding of such interferences and to be able to provide location-based optimization alternatives, a high-fidelity 3D urban model of Melbourne CBD built with ArcGIS and large scale high-resolution spatial data sets is used in this study to support a comprehensive simulation of current and future GNSS signal performance, in terms of signal continuity, availability, strength, geometry, positioning accuracy and reliability based on a number of scenarios. The design, structure and major components of the simulator are outlined. Useful time-stamped spatial patterns of the signal performance over the experimental urban area have been revealed which are valuable for supporting location based services applications, such as emergency responses, the optimization of wireless communication infrastructures and vehicle navigation services.

  • Unlike commercial LTE network, LTE-R railway network is arranged along a railroad track and the base stations of the network (RUs) are also installed on the waysides. For urban railway systems that are composed of underground tunnels, the leakage coaxial cables are widely used due to the radio propagation characteristics in tunnels. In theory, the tunnel sections are interpreted as the waveguide with blank spaces and for this reason, the tunnel sections are expected to be better than open ground sections in terms of the radio propagation characteristics. In this paper, we analyze the radio propagation characteristics based on this theory by replacing the leakage coaxial cables in the network with Yagi antennas. The test has been carried out in the 2.2km tunnel in the Daebul test track of KORAIL with 2.6GHz LTE-R Network. The LTE-R applicability in urban railways has been tested through the analysis on the radio propagation characteristics with the unmanned train operation system in Daebul tunnel.

  • IEEE 1609.2 표준은 WAVE (Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment) 표준에서 차량간(V2V, Vehicle-to-Vehicle) 혹은 차량과 인프라간(V2I, Vehicle-to-Infrastructure)통신 상의 응용 메시지 보호를 위해 제정되었다. 이 표준은 메시지 이증 및 무결성 검증을 위하여 NIST p256 타원 곡선 커브 기반의 ECDSA 전자서명 기법을 사용한다. 매우 복잡한 도신 상의 출퇴근 환경에서는 수백대의 자동차가 전송하는 메시지를 정상적으로 처리하기 위하여, 차량의 OBU(On-Board Unit) 혹은 노상의 RSU(Road-Side Unit)에서 서명된 메시지의 검증 성능이 매우 중요한 이슈가 될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 V2X 통신에서 효율적인 ECDSA 서명 검증을 위하여, OBU 혹은 RSU 환경에서 CPU 상의 병렬 처리 성능을 테스트 한 후 시사점을 살펴본다.

  • Drones, which are used in various fields, are vulnerable to various security threats such as physical deodorization attacks and information leakage attacks because they operate in an unmanned environment and use wireless communication with weak security. In particular, research is needed to prevent damages such as leakage of stored information and unauthorized use due to illegal drone deodorization. In this paper, we propose a context - aware drone control mechanism that protects stored internal information and prevents unauthorized use when the drones are illegally deactivated. We also demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed mechanism as a prototype implementation and experiment.

  • Energy harvesting is an advantageous technology for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) that dispenses with the need for periodic replacement of batteries. WSNs are composed of numerous sensors for the collection of data and communication; hence, they are important in the Internet of Things (IoT). However, due to low power generation and energy conversion efficiency, harvesting technologies have so far been utilized in limited applications. In this study, a piezoelectric energy harvester was modeled in a vibration environment. This harvester has an oval-shaped configuration as compared to the conventional cantilever-type piezoelectric energy harvester. An analytical model based on an equivalent circuit was developed to appraise the advantages of the oval-shaped piezoelectric energy harvester in which several structural parameters were optimized for higher output performance in given vibration environments. As a result, an oval-shaped energy harvester with an average output power of 2.58 mW at 0.5 g and 60 Hz vibration conditions was developed. These technical approaches provided an opportunity to appreciate the significance of autonomous sensor networks.

  • In this paper, we implemented the HearCAM platform with Raspberry PI B+ model which is an open source platform. Raspberry PI B+ model consists of dual step-down (buck) power supply with polarity protection circuit and hot-swap protection, Broadcom SoC BCM2835 running at 700MHz, 512MB RAM solered on top of the Broadcom chip, and PI camera serial connector. In this paper, we used the Google speech recognition engine for recognizing the voice characteristics, and implemented the pattern matching with OpenCV software, and extended the functionality of speech ability with SVOX TTS(Text-to-speech) as the matching result talking to the microphone of users. And therefore we implemented the functions of the HearCAM for identifying the voice and pattern characteristics of target image scanning with PI camera with gathering the temperature sensor data under IoT environment. we implemented the speech recognition, pattern matching, and temperature sensor data logging with Wi-Fi wireless communication. And then we directly designed and made the shape of HearCAM with 3D printing technology.

  • MIPv4 supports node mobility, manages MN's binding list and provides seamless communication through registration protocol. Since the registration protocol usually operating in the wireless environment involves authenticating MNs, it is a general approach to introduce the AAA infrastructure as key distribution center for the purpose of authentication. In this paper, we propose an efficient registration protocol with lightweight AAA based on domain key. Proposed protocol also withstands various replay attacks, and provides non-repudiation service for the accounts of the usage of the network service.

  • One of the problems with abalone farms is that they need to be checked frequently after feeding them or visited once or twice a day and that the amount of food intake constantly fluctuates due to changes in water temperature around the farm and typhoons. In addition, the condition of abalone is not constant as it is divided into places that eat well and do not eat well according to its location. In order to solve this problem, there is a method of measuring the amount of food intake by using a load cell that can measure even the smallest weight in an abalone farm. Through this study, we implemented a system capable of measuring the amount of abalone feed required for systematic management of abalone farms and real-time monitoring using mobile and client PCs.
