In this paper, we newly introduce a wireless identification system using a solar cell and RF transceivers. The reader sends interrogating signal to a transponder using LED visible light, and the transponder responds to the reader using RF signal. The transponder consists of a solar cell, an amplifier, a microprocessor, and an RF transmitter. The solar cell receives the visible light from the reader and generates current to supply electric power to the other devices in the transponder. At the same time, the solar cell detects interrogating signal in the reader light. The microprocessor senses the interrogating signal and generates a responding signal. The RF transmitter radiates the responding signal to the reader. The transponder is a passive circuit because it operates without external power. In experiments, the maximum read distance between a reader and a transponder was about 1.6 meter.

현재 국내에서 사용되는 교통신호제어기는 4구신호등(적색, 황색, 녹화살표, 녹색) 체계로 개발된 "경찰청 교통신호제어기 표준규격"을 따르고 있으나, 국가정책에 따라 3구신호등체계로 바뀌어 운영될 예정에 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 기존 4구신호등 체계로 개발된 표준규격 교통신호제어기를 3구신호등(적색, 황색, 녹색) 체계에 맞도록 신호등기부를 개선하는 방법으로 3구신호등용 교통신호제어기를 설계 개발하였다. 등기구동장치(LSU)는 2조의 3색 R-Y-G 출력스위치를 가져 총 6개의 출력용량을 갖도록 개선되었다. 이동류별 및 교통수단별(차량, 버스, 자전거, 보행) 3색 신호를 부여하기 위해 최대 16개까지 등기구동장치(LSU)를 수용하여 총 96개의 출력 용량을 갖도록 버스체계가 개선되었다. 최대 32개까지 늘어난 적색 등 점멸제어를 위해 점멸기(FLASHER) 장치를 개선하였다. 소프트웨어 부문에서는 지역제어기와 센터시스템 간 통신규약이 개선 되었으며, 3구신호등 체계의 LSU에 적합한 새로운 시그널맵 코드체계를 부여하였다. 개발된 3구신호등 제어용 교통신호기에 대해 프로토콜 운전, 원격제어기능, 제어모드별 운전기능을 각각 시험하였으며, 테스트 결과 모두 정상적으로 동작하였다.

Recently a new signal processing algorithm for white light interferometry was presented. In this paper, the proposed signal processing algorithm was applied for absolute temperature measurement using white light interferometry. Stability testing and absolute temperature measurement were demonstrated. Stability test demonstrated the feasibility of absolute temperature measurement with an accuracy of 0.015 fringe. The test also showed that the absolute temperature measurement system using white light interferometry is capable of obtaining the theoretical minimum detectable change (0.0005 fringe), which is consistent with the performance predicted by the proposed signal processing algorithm.

현재 교통약자(장애인, 고령자, 어린이 등)의 보행 속도는 일반인 보다 느려, 기존 신호등의 제한된 시간 동안 안전하게 횡단이 불가능하다. 단지 기존의 보행신호등의 시간을 늘려 해결할 수 있지만 교통약자의 구분 없이 신호 대기 시간만 늘리면 신호등의 효율성이 떨어진다. 본 논문은 스마트 보행신호 등과 보행자의 스마트기기 연동 메커니즘을 제안하고, 이를 통해 교통약자와 일반인을 구분하여 교통약자에게 추가 보행 시간을 제공으로 교통체증을 최소화 하고자 한다. 스마트 보행신호등은 사물인터넷(IOT) 기술을 활용하여 교통약자를 식별하는 교통약자 중심의 보행신호등 메커니즘이다. 또한 시뮬레이션 기법을 통한 효율적 스마트 보행신호등 메커니즘 구축에 필요한 Data를 추출하고 스마트 보행신호등의 효율성 확인을 위해 가상의 시뮬레이션 환경에서 여러 종류의 신호등을 구축하여 인원 증가에 따른 신호대기시간 비교 분석 통해 효율적 시간을 검증한다.

이 논문에서는 image signal processing 을 고려하여 저조도에서 촬영된 저품질의 raw 이미지를 딥러닝에 기반하여 개선하는 방법을 제안한다. 스마트폰 카메라의 경우 DSLR 카메라에 비해 렌즈나 센서의 확장에 제약이 있어 저조도 상황에서 이미지에 노이즈가 증가되고 품질이 저하되는 문제점을 보인다. 기존 딥러닝 기반 저조도 이미지 처리 방식은 image signal processing의 주요 요소인 렌즈 쉐이딩 효과와 화이트 밸런스를 고려하지 못하여 부자연스러운 이미지를 생성하기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 렌즈 쉐이딩 효과와 화이트 밸런스를 딥러닝 모델에 적용하기 위해 중심거리와 채널 평균을 활용한다. 스마트폰으로 촬영된 저조도 이미지를 통한 실험에서 제안하는 방법이 기존 방법에 비해 더 높은 peak signal to noise ratio 와 structural similarity index measure를 달성함과 동시에 높은 품질의 저조도 이미지를 생성함을 확인한다.

In this paper, we wish to construct a optimal traffic cycle using wire remote control. if police vehicle or ambulance suddenly enter the traffic intersection, it will increase the traffic accident. In this paper, wireless traffic light use the radio traffic control signal and research about the hardware manufacture to check special detectors on urgency vehicles may safety and rapidly enter traffic intersection. Also, this paper present a traffic signal control conditions that analyzes different traffic intersection flows in cases of saturated flows, where the real traffic volume demand is large and the capacity constraints of bottlenecks have significant effects on the flow patterns. Through computer simulation this wireless traffic light has been proven to be much more safety and efficient than fixed traffic signal light which does not considering emergency vehicles for safety escort.

The meaning of crosswalks and traffic lights in modern society has changed a lot as the enforcement of traffic signal violations has been strengthened. In this paper, we present a new next-generation traffic light method using radar and Can-bus communication methods suitable for the new traffic signal enforcement system. This method is a system that prevents accidents by transmitting information on the entry of a person and a car to a traffic light in a place where a person and a car passing through a mutually invisible traffic light cannot be seen. Since this system has only been developed for a month, it may be somewhat lacking in experimentation. However, in just one month, there have been no incidents except for a few people where the system has been installed.

In the past, when there were few vehicles on the road, the T.O.D.(Time of Day) traffic signal worked very well. The T.O.D. signal operates on a preset signal cycling which cycles on the basis of the average number of average passenger cars in the memory device of an electric signal unit. Now days, with increasing many vehicles on restricted roads, the conventional traffic light creates startup-delay time and end-lag-time. The conventional traffic light loses the function of optimal cycle. And so, $30-45\%$ of conventional traffic cycle is not matched to the present traffic cycle. In this paper we proposes electro sensitive traffic light using fuzzy look up table method which will reduce the average vehicle waiting time and improve average vehicle speed. Computer simulation results prove that reducing the average vehicle waiting time which proposed considering passing vehicle length for optimal traffic cycle is better than fixed signal method which doesn't consider vehicle length.

Objective: This study examined two traffic signals with a countdown indicator in terms of driver's reaction time and subjective satisfaction score and their performance was compared with a standard traffic signal in driving simulation. Background: Dilemma zone is created when a traffic light changes at intersections. It often pushes drivers to rush in urgent and premature decision making whether to go or stop and thus induces unnecessary mental load among drivers, which may lead to sudden conflicts with following vehicles at intersections. Method: Forty college students (male: 20, female: 20) participated in this driving simulation study. Three traffic signals were employed: (1) standard traffic signal; (2) countdown-separated signal; and (3) countdown-overlaid signal. The countdown-separated and countdown-overlaid signals were designed to inform drivers of the remaining time of a green light before tuning to an amber light. Reaction times (sec) and satisfaction scores (7-point scale) for the two signals with a countdown indicator were compared with those for the standard traffic signal. Results: Reaction times of the countdown-separated (0.49 sec) and countdown-overlaid (0.43 sec) signals were significantly shorter than that of the standard signal (0.67 sec). Satisfaction scores of the countdown-separated (5.3 point) and countdown-overlaid (5.6 point) signals were greater than that of the standard signal (3.8 point). Lastly, the countdown-overlaid signal showed better performance than the countdown-separated signal, but their differences in reaction time (0.06 sec) and satisfaction score (0.3 point) were small. Conclusion: Traffic signals with a countdown indicator can improve drivers' reaction time and satisfaction score than the standard traffic signal. Application: Traffic signals with a countdown indicator will be useful for reducing the length of dilemma zone at intersections, by allowing drivers to predict the remaining time of a green light.

Phantom phenomena on the signal light was observed and change of perception-reaction time of the observer was measured. If phantom phenomena occurs, signal light perception- reaction time by the drivers is prolonged, the extent of which may disturb driving. Length of the perception-reaction time is affected by the luminance contrast between the turned-on and tuned-off signals. Based on the measured results, several methods to prevent phantom phenomena were suggested.
