Recently, To provide various service for user, there are some trends to construct health care system using bio-sensors and wireless network technologies. Accordingly, An effective middleware is needed to manage and control the various bio-sensors. Also, it is important to extend network and interoperate the various application system in healthcare service. In this paper, we propose to be connected with network based on UPnP by design and implementation of UPnP-ZigBee bridge. The proposed UPnP-ZigBee bridge manage and control ZigBee sensor module effectively. we implemented and tested ECG, PPG, and environment sensor module based on ZigBee wireless network to apply in health care service.

The convergence tendency accelerates the realization of the ubiquitous healthcare (u-Healthcare) between the technology including the power generaation and IT-BT-NT of the ubiquitous computing technology. By rapidly analyzing a large amount of collected from the sensor network with processing and delivering to the medical team an u-Healthcare can provide a patient for an inappropriate regardless of the time and place. As to the existing u-Healthcare, since the sensor node all transmitted collected data by using with the Zigbee protocol the processing burden of the base node was big and there was many communication frequency of the sensor node. In this paper, the u-Healthcare system in which it can efficiently apply to mobile apparatuses it provided the transfer rate in which it is superior to the bio-signal delivery where there are the life and direct relation which by using the Bluetooth instead of the Zigbee protocol and in which it is variously used in the ubiquitous environment was designed. Moreover, by applying the EEF(Embedded Event Filtering) technique in which data in which it includes in the event defined in advance selected and it transmits with the base node, the communication frequency and were reduced. We confirmed to be the system in which it is efficient through the simulation result than the existing Electrocardiogram Measurement system.

본 논문에서는 Weighted Cenrtoid Localization(WCL) 알고리즘을 적용하여, 고정 노드 (Anchors) 사이의 측정된 수신 신호 강도(RSSI)로 Zigbee 실내 위치 인식 시스템을 구현하였다. 센서 노드의 위치는 RSSI에 의해 선택된 가상 고정 노드에 WCL을 적용하여 결정한다. WCL에서 부여하는 가중치는 고정 노드와 RSSI 센서 노드 위치의 거리에 대한 함수이며, 고정 노드 간의 측정된 RSSI 값으로 구한다. 고정 노드 간의 RSSI로 가상 고정 노드를 이용한 WCL은 기존의 방식에서 사용되는 고정 노드의 수를 줄이고, 측정 대상의 위치 정확도를 측정된 RSSI 값만으로 추정한 위치보다 7.8% 향상되는 것을 확인 하였다.

The sensor network that may be deemed to fall in the field of ubiquitous computing performs the basic function of transmitting sensing data through the autonomous sensing and the Ad hoc network. In order to collect and treat various sensing data at the time of application and manage extremely limited system resources, the sensor network requires the embedded operating system that uses low power, a small cord size and the least hardware resources. In this paper, The operating system having a new structure for constructing the IEEE 802. 15.4 MAC and Zigbee sensor network is suggested and can be formed by reviewing the characteristics and the core structural requirements of the operating system for the sensor network based on operating systems, which have been formed under existing similar conditions, and applying such features and core structural requirements to the design of the operating system for achieving the features and the requirements.

In this paper, we study the design and implementation of an auto recognition system by using wireless sensor node. RFID system has a limited communication range and communication network is damaged, it is impossible to communicate. Therefore, easy installation and low cost wireless system are required in an area where the installation of communication between RFID system and monitoring system is difficult, or a portable RFID system is installed. The auto recognition system in this study is implemented by the combination of 13.56MHz RFID system using MLX12115 RFID chip of Melexis company and wireless sensor node system using CC2420 Zigbee chip of Chipcon company. As a result, we develop an auto recognition system which makes it possible to get tag's information wirelessly. Also, it has a simple circuit structure and is small in size.

Sensor networks are needed for special purposes such as collecting or transmitting information by using sensor devices, for which various routing protocols have been proposed. Among existing protocols, the modified PEGASIS routing technique is known to be effective when applied to cases with directional transmissions of data. However it does not consider recovery from errors or guaranteeing stability in data transmission, while sensor devices performing repetitive relays and controls are prone to errors. In this paper, a double relay routing protocol for Zigbee based sensor networks where data are transfered reliably with a linear direction. The proposed protocol is effective in the sense that it secures the relaible transmission of data with minimal energy consumption based on a directional data transfer. A streetlight control system has been presented as an application of the proposed protocol.

FBG sensors are mainly used to measure deformation of structures such as tunnels, bridges and ships. In this paper, an interrogator of FBG sensors is developed and implemented to measure the status of structures. A developed interrogator includes CAN wired and Zigbee wireless communication for remote monitoring. Strain of structure is measured using shift of wavelength of reflected light from FBG sensor. A digital signal controller is used to process signals of a FBG sensor and transmit data for remote monitoring. As a result of experiment, developed interrogator is effective to measure deformation of structures.
