In this paper, a remote submersion warning system based on multi-mode optical fiber(MMF) sensors and a wireless sensor network(WSN) are proposed. To improve the reliability and stability of the sensors, the dual optical fiber sensors combined to the optical coupler are demonstrated. A slave zigbee as a wireless sensor module was used as a platform to monitor and record the signal from the MMF sensors and then transmits these information to a master zigbee wirelessly. The monitoring system running the $LabVIEW^{(R)}$ software was connected to the internet to support the short message service(SMS) through extensible markup language(XML) web service. No matter where the managers are, they can always receive the real-time remote-monitoring data for safety check.

In this article, a smart multifunctional optical system-on-a-chip (SOC) sensor platform is presented and its application for fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor interrogation in optical sensor networks is investigated. The smart SOC sensor platform consists of a superluminescent diode as a broadband source, a tunable microelectromechanical system (MEMS) based Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot filter, photodetectors, and an integrated microcontroller for data acquisition, processing, and communication. Integrated with a wireless sensor network (WSN) module in a compact package, a smart optical sensor node is developed. The smart multifunctional sensor platform has the capability of interrogating different types of optical fiber sensors, including Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot sensors and Bragg grating sensors. As a case study, the smart optical sensor platform is demonstrated to interrogate multiplexed FBG strain sensors. A time domain signal processing method is used to obtain the Bragg wavelength shift of two FBG strain sensors through sweeping the MEMS tunable Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot filter. A tuning range of 46 nm and a tuning speed of 10 Hz are achieved. The smart optical sensor platform will open doors to many applications that require high performance optical WSNs.

양극성수신기와 무선통신에서 널리 사용되고 있는 PN(pseudo random noise) 부호를 수정하여 적용시킨 광 CDMA 방식을 사용한 광센서 네트워크를 제안한다. 광 센서 네트워크에서 특성을 수치적으로 분석하였다. 센서사이와 광 CDMA의 디코더에 광섬유형지연기를 사용하여 광 CDMA의 인코더와 디코더간 동기를 맞추고, 광지연기의 지연을 PN 부호의 칩폭보다 크게 하면 센서간 간섭잡음을 완전히 제거할 수 있다. 광 신호간 비트 잡음이 잡음전력을 지배하기 때문에 광센서 네트워크에 접속할 수 있는 광 센서의 수를 증가시키기 위하여 광신호간 비트 잡음을 억압하여야 한다.

The trend is that the wireless communication system, which has specific characteristics ; low cost & limitation for installation, has been developed more actively than the wire communication system. Therefore, the communication system has been changed from the wire system with an optical cable to the wireless system in the various field of life. In the railroad field, lots of researches on the wireless communication system for the safety of infrastructure and the convenience of passenger have been conducted. The WSN(Wireless Sensor Network), which means same concept with USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network), pursues the ubiquitous environment which means user can access network at anywhere and anytime. In this paper, the wireless communication technologies which are suitable for the WSN of subway station were investigated and the best solution of WSN was suggested.

In the electric power industry, it is important that the supply of energy must be guaranteed. Many power utilities control and supervise the transmission line to avoid power failures. In case of underground tunnel, some troubles are reported in cable joint. To stabilize the power, it is needed to monitor the cable joint. Many researches of cable joint monitoring have been going on by partial discharge measurement and temperature measurement using optical cable. These methods need much cost to install and maintain, so it is only used in critical transmission line. In this research, we use wireless sensor technology, because of its low cost and easy installation. We develop the temperature monitoring system for cable joint. Temperature sensor is installed on the surface of cable joint and sends data to server through router node using wireless network. Generally Ad hoc routing is searched in wireless network. However, in this research, we design the static linear routing mechanism, which is suitable for electric power line monitoring and analyze the life time of the sensor node by measuring the amount of the battery consumption.

무선 통신 기술이 발달함에 따라 유비쿼터스 환경에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 초기 물류분야에서 활용되었던 RFID기술은 점차적으로 센싱 기능을 추가하면서 발전하고 있고, 추후에는 이 센서들 간의 네트워크가 구축되어 USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) 형태로 발전해나갈 것이다. 본 연구에서는 전력설비에 대한 감시 감독을 위해 RFID를 이용하여 전력 설비에 대한 자산 관리나 감시 및 순시에 대한 정보를 기록, 관리하며, 다양한 센서를 이용하여 전력 설비에 대한 실시간 정보를 수집할 수 있도록 USN을 활용하는 전력설비관리 서비스 프레임워크를 구현하였다. 안정적인 전력 공급을 위해서는 전력 선로에 대한 안전성 확보가 중요한 요소이며, 이를 위해 실시간 감시는 매우 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 현재는 중요 설비에 대하여 광케이블이나 PLC 등과 같은 유선 통신망을 설치하여 감시 정보를 수집하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고가의 유선망을 설치하지 않고 무선 통신 기반의 저가형 센서를 이용하여 데이터를 수집하고 전송할 수 있도록 무선센서노드를 개발하였다. 또한 각 장비로부터 실시간으로 전송되는 데이터를 안정적으로 수집하고 필터링 및 요약을 통해 응용 프로그램에 정보를 제공할 수 있도록 서비스 프레임워크를 설계하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 전력설비관리 서비스를 개발하였다.

The rapid growth of algae occurs can induce the algae bloom when nutrients are supplied from anthropogenic sources such as fertilizer, animal waste or sewage in runoff the water currents or upwelling naturally. The algae blooms creates the human health problem in the environment as well as in the water resource managers including hypoxic dead zones and harmful toxins and pose challenges to water treatment systems. The algal blooms in the source water in water treatment systems affects the drinking water taste & odor while clogging or damaging filtration systems and putting a strain on the systems designed to remove algal toxins from the source water. This paper propose the emerging In-Situ self-diagnosable smart algae sensing device with wireless connectivity for smart remote monitoring and control. In this research, we developed the In-Site Algae diagnosable sensing device with wireless sensor network (WSN) connectivity with Optical Biological Sensor and environmental sensor to monitor the water treatment systems. The proposed system emulated in real-time on the water treatment plant and functional evaluation parameters are presented as part of the conceptual proof to the proposed research.

In this paper, the parameter identification for localization scheme for the optics-based micro sensor node is conducted. We analyzed short measurement range problem which can be occurred in optical based micro sensor node localization method using a time of flight. And we set up the theory for distance and maximum reflected laser power to overcome the problem by identifying hardware parameters like laser power, effective area of MEMS CCR, sensitivity of photodetector, and so on. Experimental results of measurement of maximum reflected laser power were compared with results of the theory. By using the theory, we can identify hardware parameters of localization scheme to measure particular position of the optics-based micro sensor node.

Piezoresistive-type, capacitive-type, and optical-type sensors have mainly been used for measuring a strain. However, in building a sensor network for remote monitoring using these conventional sensors there are disadvantages such as the complexity of a measuring system including wireless communication circuitry and high cost. In this paper, we demonstrates a highly-sensitive surface acoustic wave (SAW) strain sensor which is advantageous to harsh environments and wireless network. We designed and fabricated the SAW strain sensor. The SAW strain sensor attached on a specimen was tested with a tensile tester. The strain on the sensor surface was measured with a commercial strain gauge and compared with that obtained from strain analysis. The central frequency shift of the SAW sensor was measured with a network analyzer. The sensitivity of the SAW strain sensor is 134 $Hz/{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ which is high compared to previous results.
