Latest advances in network sensor technology and state of the art of mobile robot, and artificial intelligence research can be employed to develop autonomous and distributed monitoring systems. In this study, as the preliminary step for developing a multi-purpose "Intelligent Space" platform to implement advanced technologies easily to realize smart services to human. We will give an explanation for the ISpace system architecture designed and implemented in this study and a short review of existing techniques, since there exist several recent thorough books and review paper on this paper. Instead we will focus on the main results with relevance to the DIND data fusion with CI of Intelligent Space. We will conclude by discussing some possible future extensions of ISpace. It is first dealt with the general principle of the navigation and guidance architecture, then the detailed functions tracking multiple objects, human detection and motion assessment, with the results from the simulations run.

The Multisensor Fusion Problem (MFP) deals with the methodologies involved in effectively combining together homogeneous or non-homegeneous information obtained from multiple redundant or disparate sensors in order to perform a task more accurately, efficiently, and reliably. The inherent uncertainties in the sensory information are represented using Fuzzy Numbers, -numbers, and the Uncertainty-Reductive Fusion Technique (URFT) is introduced to combine the multiple sensory information into one consensus -number. The MFP is formulated from the Information Theory perspective where sensors are viewed as information sources with a fixed output alphabet and systems are modeled as a network of information processing and processing and propagating channels. The performance of the URFT is compared with other fusion techniques in solving the 3-Sensor Problem.

In many security monitoring contexts, the performance or efficiency of surveillance sensors/networks based on a single sensor type may be limited by environmental conditions, like illumination change. It is well known that different modes of sensors can be complementary, compensating for failures or limitations of individual sensor types. From a location analysis and modeling perspective, a challenge is how to locate different modes of sensors to support security monitoring. A coverage-based optimization model is proposed as a way to simultaneously site k different sensor types. This model considers common coverage among different sensor types as well as overlapping coverage for individual sensor types. The developed model is used to site sensors in an urban area. Computational results show that common and overlapping coverage can be modeled simultaneously, and a rich set of solutions exists reflecting the tradeoff between common and overlapping coverage.

In sensor medium access control (SMAC) protocol, sensor nodes can only access the channel in the scheduling and listening period. However, this fixed working method may generate data latency and high conflict. To solve those problems, scheduling duty in the original SMAC protocol is divided into multiple small scheduling duties (micro duty MD). By applying different micro-dispersed contention channel, sensor nodes can reduce the collision probability of the data and thereby save energy. Based on the given micro-duty, this paper presents an adaptive duty cycle (DC) and back-off algorithm, aiming at detecting the fixed duty cycle in SMAC protocol. According to the given buffer queue length, sensor nodes dynamically change the duty cycle. In the context of low duty cycle and low flow, fair binary exponential back-off (F-BEB) algorithm is applied to reduce data latency. In the context of high duty cycle and high flow, capture avoidance binary exponential back-off (CA-BEB) algorithm is used to further reduce the conflict probability for saving energy consumption. Based on the above two contexts, we propose an improved SMAC protocol, micro duty adaptive SMAC protocol (MDA-SMAC). Comparing the performance between MDA-SMAC protocol and SMAC protocol on the NS-2 simulation platform, the results show that, MDA-SMAC protocol performs better in terms of energy consumption, latency and effective throughput than SMAC protocol, especially in the condition of more crowded network traffic and more sensor nodes.

Neural networks are used in the framework of sensorbased tracking control of robot manipulators. They learn by practice movements the relationship between PSD (an analog Position Sensitive Detector) sensor readings for target positions and the joint commands to reach them. Using this configuration, the system can track or follow a moving or stationary object in real time. forthermore, an efficient neural network architecture has been developed for real time learning. This network uses multiple sets of simple backpropagation networks one of which is selected according to which division (corresponding to a cluster of the self-organizing feature map) in data space the current input data belongs to. This lends itself to a very training and processing implementation required for real time control.

The passive direction finding cross localization method is widely adopted in passive tracking, therefore there will exist masses of false intersection points. Eliminating these false intersection points correctly and quickly is a key technique in passive localization. A new method is proposed for passive locating and tracking multi-jammer target in this paper. It not only solves the difficulty of determining the number of targets when masses of false intersection points existing, but also solves the initialization problem of elastic network. Thus this method solves the problem of multi-jammer target correlation and the elimination of static false intersection points. The method which dynamically establishes multiple hypothesis trajectory trees solves the problem of eliminating the remaining false intersection points. Simulation results show that computational burden of the method is lower, the elastic network can more quickly find all or most of the targets and have a more probability of locking the real targets. This method can eliminate more false intersection points.

전파 자원은 국가의 무형 자산으로서 자원이 한정되어 있는 반면에 이에 대한 수요가 급증하면서 전파 자원의 가치가 점점 높아지고 있다. 특히 국내의 경우 IT839 전략으로 추진 중인 WiBro(Wireless Broadband), DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting), Home Network, Telematics(Telecommunication Informatics), WCDMA(Wide Code Division Multiple Access), RFID/USN(Radio Frequency Identification/Ubiquitous Sensor Network) 등 무선 주파수를 이용하는 새로운 서비스가 증가하면서 주파수 자원에 대한 중요성은 더욱 강조되고 있다. 종래의 전파 정책이 정부가 정책을 세우고 이를 관리하는 Command-and-Control 위주였다면, 향후의 전파 정책은 OpYN1020en Spectrum 정책으로 전환될 것으로 전망된다. 본 고에서는 전파 자원의 효율적인 이용을 도모하는 일반적인 CR(Cognitive Radio) 기술에 대하여 언급하고, 이를 이동성이 없는 고정 환경에 적용하기 위한 IEEE 802.22 WRAN 시스템의 물리계층 전송 규격 사양, 프레임구조 및 현재 논의되고 있는 기술에 대하여 논의한다.
