The interaction of magnetic field in the frequency range of 9~150 kHz radiating from a railway system with wireless systems has been the cause of radio frequency interference. In this paper, the equivalent circuit model of the RFI noise is proposed through source and transfer path analysis, and it is confirmed that the switching noise of several kHz that occurs a vehicle traction drive system and a substation is radiated by forming the loop circuit with a feeder line by a rolling stock. And the validity of the proposed equivalent circuit model is verified by analyzing the effects of RC banks installed in the real railway between Guri and Guksu stations, the RFI noise can be effectively mitigated by loading suitable capacitance between rail and feeding line.

In this paper, a novel ultra-wideband planar monopole antenna for the UHF communications and Digital-TV reception is proposed. The proposed antenna fed by a coplanar waveguide(CPW) is based on a triangular patch that has a broadband characteristic. To further increase the bandwidth of the triangular patch antenna, the top side of the regular triangular patch is loaded with a notch cut and each oblique side with a step. In addition, a slope is given to the ground plane of the CPW structure. Experimental results show that the -10 dB return loss bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 2,320 MHz from 480~2,800 MHz(5.83:1 bandwidth), which covers all the frequency bands of the various wireless communication systems and Digital TV broadcasting in the UHF band. Within the entire operating frequency range, the measured antenna gain in y-z plane(E-plane) varies from 3.01 to 4.71 dBi.

Recently, both the integration of product data during design and production and the effective management of information during full lifecycles have attracted attention from shipyards and ship owners as a result of recycling regulations and a desire for efficient operations. Generally, PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) supports a collaborative environment during the BOL (Beginning of Life) stage, while an ALM (Asset Lifecycle Management) system provides all of the information required to maintain, overhaul, and discard/recycle all or part of a vessel during the MOL (Middle of Life) and EOL (End of Life) stages. The main goal of this paper is to suggest the fundamental configuration of a PALM (Product Asset Lifecylce Management) system and a method that can be used to utilize a marine vessel's lifecycle information during the MOL, emphasizing the maintenance information during the middle of life. The authors also suggest a PALM system configuration in which lifecycle information can be collected by a PEID (Product Embedded Information Device) integrating a microcomputer, sensors, and wireless network communication. Through a prototype PALM system, the suggested features and PALM system configuration are implemented.

The safety of industrial valves, which are the core parts of plant facilities, are managed by manpower and there are difficulties because of side area for inspection and limited accessibility due to the nature of facilities. The industrial valves used in plant facilities cause problems such as interrupted production; a loss of life due to leak or explosion of poisonous material and flammable gases, and difficulty in locating accident positions in the event of leakage or failure. Therefore, safety management and control systems based on IoT technology are needed. This study is about the development of risk factor prediction technique among the safety management of industrial valves through IoT- based wireless communication and the development of actuator control system. We have developed IoT-based industrial valve safety management techniques to prevent accidents caused by main risk factors by conducting an analysis of the structural characteristics of valves and an analysis of the causes of main risk factors through review of failure data and literature and an analysis of accident scenarios.

Extension of the mobile communication and the rapidly developing services connected with wireless multimedia(W-CDMA, DMB, Wibro, and so on) need great many base station transceiver systems, antennas, and many signal transmission line to embody these services. The min communication appliances system is exposed always in danger of transient overvoltage by direct stroke or induced lightning surge flowing in through antenna because the antenna of base station transceiver system or relay equipment is combined with expensive communication network equipments through signal transmission line. Now, gas discharge tube(GDT) or narrow band stub arrestor which is used by the surge protector for communication use is exposing limitations as for lightning surge protective means of the communication facility with high speed and wide frequency band. Therefore, for improving performance of surge arrestor, we applied ceramic filter which can reduce lightning surge invading from antenna effectively, and proved that ceramic filter is effective in residual voltage reduction through the experimental research.

In intelligent subway systems, UWB-based WiMedia D-MAC Protocol can be considered to send and receive multimedia data which requires high data rate. However, network devices which do not exist within 10 meters, the limited communication rage, can not communicate with each other because WiMedia does not support multi-hop communications. In this paper, we developed the algorithm to select a relaying device for multi-hop routing on WiMedia networks. In the first step, each device acquires information of neighbors through beacon and decides whether it is a normal or relaying device using the acquired information. In the next step, all devices can create the 2-hop routing table using the information received via relaying devices and the whole routing table for all devices on networks, eventually.

Real Time Locating Systems (RTLS) are used to track and identify the location of objects in real time using simple, inexpensive tags attached to or embedded in objects and readers that receive the wireless signals from these tags to determine their locations. A tag is powered an internal source such as a battery. The blink frequency of a tag affects the energy efficiency and the locating accuracy of RTLS. The mobility of a tag also affects the locating accuracy. In this paper, we introduce a RTLS tag design which improves the locating accuracy and the power efficiency. We propose an adaptive transmission-rate control algorithm using a motion sensor. By analyzing the signal pattern of the motion sensor, we can build a model to estimate the speed of the motion. Using this model, our algorithm can achieve better locating accuracy and lower power consumption than those of the conventional method. In our experiments, the number of transmission reduced as 40%, keeping similar locating accuracy.

This study implemented a remote control system using PDA based on WINDOWS CE. NET. In existing remote control systems, the user generally controls remote objects and obtain data using a computer, which is a local system connected to the internet, and the remote objects are connected to server computers. In order to control remote objects, the user has to have a computer, a space to use the Internet, and wired internet. The system proposed in this study uses an embedded board as a server and PDA as a client. Thus, the user can control remote objects at any place as long as wireless internet is available. In addition, because an embedded board is used as a server, the system has the characteristics of high performance and low power consumption. The proposed system provides not only remote control environment using PDA but also conventional control environment using a computer as a client. In case PDA is not available, remote objects still can be controlled from any place as long as there are wired internet and a computer.
