최근 무선 통신 기술의 발전으로 무선 매체를 통한 다양한 서비스가 활발해지고 있다. 그 중 블루투스를 기반으로 하는 스마트 폰 어플리케이션 시장이 증가하고 있다. 블루투스는 근거리 무선 네트워킹 기술로서 무선이라는 요소와 빠른 전송속도라는 요소를 갖추고 있다는 장점이 있는 반면, 높은 전력소모와 다채널의 갯수 제한 등과 같은 단점이 존재한다. 이러한 블루투스의 단점을 보완하여 부상되고 있는 것이 지그비(Zigbee) 무선통신기술이다. 지그비는 블루투스나 와이파이 등의 기술보다도 저전력, 저가격, 다채널, 브로드캐스팅, 사용의 용이성을 지원하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 센서와 스마트 폰 사이의 무선통신기술로서 지그비를 이용하여서 근거리 무선 네트워크 시스템을 설계하여서 블루투스에 비해 낮은 전력소모와 다채널의 지원을 이용하여 다수의 다양한 센서를 스마트 폰과 근거리에서 실시간으로 무선 네트워크를 제어할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하였다.

A simple, accurate, secure, long-lasting, and portable hybrid positioning system is proposed and designed in this paper. It consists of a lighting LED that generates visible light data corresponding to position information of a target and a Zigbee wireless network communication module with low power, security, and service area expansion characteristics. Under an indoor environment where there is 23.62m distance between an observer and the target, the presented hybrid positioning system is tested and is verified with the functions of Zigbee three hop wireless networking and visible light communication (VLC) scheme. The test results are analyzed and discussed.

As the services of ubiquitous environment has become accessible everywhere, it has been developed in various fields. Additionally interests in the u-Healthcare has sharply increased. In this paper, the BAN (Body Area Network) has been applied through ECG sensor and Zigbee communication of the existing ubiquitous sensor network environment to measure one's vital signs. The measured vital signs were then implemented in a system that enabled doctors and specialists to monitor by using 3G(WCDMA) communication. Furthermore, a location search device has been designed using the Smartphone's GPS modules to locate patients in the case of an emergency. The data field definition and designed system was based on the Smartphone's iPhone platform which has been in the spotlight for the previous months.

Recent expansion of the ubiquitous environment and improvement of the USN give lots of U-healthcare systems. In this paper, we design and implement a wireless ECG measurement system that can send ECG signals among the sensors and collector. It can also give almost the same precision as a hospital ECG system with mobility. The most important fact of the mobile ECG system is the signal data connectivity among the sensors and device such as signal cables or wires. we can eliminate the signal cable through the Zigbee sender and collector via implementing Zigbee-SD communication system that can receive the ECG signal data. We also implement ECG app software on the smart phone that can analyze and show the data results directly. It can give lots of mobility and usability under ubiquitous environment and would be a very efficient wireless ECG system for U-healthcare service.

Smart Multiple-Tap to be introduced in this paper, is an electronic device that controls the Multibple-Tap through the Smartphone. It runs on network and has an inbuilt Zigbee communication module. Thus, users can control home devices from remote through home server. Mentioned home server is operated as a gateway and is connected with smart devices on the Internet. To sum up, Users using this Smart Multiple-Tap can check the state information of the multi-tap ON/OFF and can control immediately by smartphone. also, Smart Multiple-Tap perfectly shut down the standby power. when users turn off each of the Smart Multiple-Tap's circle, It drives automatically lowest electricity-consuming mode and shut down the standby power by its own built-in SSR module. therefore, it will bring the energy saving effect on environment using Smart Multiple-Tap.

An electric heat tracing system manages the temperature of pipes used in a plant. We propose a Zigbee-based wireless system so called the TESCON(: TEmperature Sensing and CONtrol) to monitor and control the electric heat tracing system in an integrated way. Simulations have been done to analyze the performance of the TESCON system. The performance of the TESCON system is validated by obtaining similar results via testbed operation. We also suggest an extension method of the TESCON system based on the hierarchical tree topology by adopting techniques such as network partition, channel reuse and frame aggregation.

본 논문에서는 Zigbee 네트워크 환경에서 Zigbee 라우터가 다양한 종류의 패킷을 전송받을 때 패킷의 종류에 따라 발생하는 처리 대기열의 처리 지연을 줄이기 위하여 각 종류의 패킷마다 서로 다른 대기열을 두고 라우팅하는 기법을 제안하였다. 이 전에는 네트워크 디바이스의 성능으로 인하여 대기열을 다루는 다양한 방법이 제안되었으나, 대기열을 분리하여 처리하는 방법에 대해서는 한계가 있었다. 본 논문에서는 패킷을 제어, 실시간, 일반 패킷으로 분류하여 이를 서로 다른 대기열에 수용하고 처리함으로써 패킷 종류에 따라 타 패킷에 발생하는 처리 지연을 줄여 네트워크 효율을 향상 시킨다.

IN wireless sensor networks (WSNs), one challenging issue is to In wireless sensor networks (WSNs), one challenging issue is to construct a virtual backbone in a distributed and localized way while considering energy limitation. Dominating set has been used extensively as core or virtual backbone in WSNs for the purposes like routing and message broadcast. To ensure network performance, a good dominating set construction protocols should be simple and avoid introducing extra message. In addition, the resulting dominating set should be small, connected, and take into account the energy level at each node. This paper studies efficient and simple virtual backbone construction protocol using defer time in IEEE 802.15.4- based WSNs (e.g. Zigbee). The efficiency of our proposed protocol is confirmed through simulation results.

C-ITS is an intelligent transportation system that can improve transportation convenience and traffic safety by collecting, managing, and providing traffic information between components such as vehicles, road infrastructure, drivers, and pedestrians. In Korea, road infrastructure is being built across the country through the C-ITS project, and various services such as real-time traffic information provision and bus operation management are provided. However, the current state-of-the-art road infrastructure and information linkage system are insufficient to build C-ITS. In this paper, considering the continuity of time in various spatial aspects, we proposed a group-type network-based traffic situation recognition system that can recognize traffic flows and unexpected accidents through information linkage between traffic infrastructures. It is expected that the proposed system can primarily respond to accident detection and warning in the field, and can be utilized as more diverse traffic information services through information linkage with other systems.
