This paper proposes a multiple switch mode power supply (SMPS) system based on the wireless network which controls variable load. The system enables power supply of up to 600W using 200W SMPS as a unit module and provides a controlling function of output power based on variable load and a monitoring function based on wireless network. The controlling function for output power measures the variation of output power and facilitates efficient power supply by controlling output power based on the measured variation value. The monitoring function guarantees a stable power supply by observing the multiple SMPS system in real time via wireless network. The performance of the proposed system was examined by various experiments. In addition, it was verified through standardized test of Korea Testing Certification. The results were given and discussed.

An indoor environmental monitoring system using IEEE 802.15.4 based wireless sensor network is proposed to monitor the amount of pollutant entering to the room from outside and also the amount of pollutant that is generated in indoor by the building materials itself or human activities. Small-size, low-power wireless sensor node and low power electrochemical sensor board is designed to measure the condition of indoor environment in buildings such as home, offices, commercial premises and schools. In this paper, two query models, the broadcasting query protocol and flooding query protocol, were designed and programmed as a query-based routing protocol in wireless sensor network for an environment monitoring system. The flooding query routing protocol in environment monitoring is very effective as a power saving routing protocol and reliable data transmission between sensor nodes.

본 연구에서는 가정용 전력 모니터링 시스템을 구현하고 실험가구에 적용하여 평가하였으며, 평가과정에서 확보한 기기별 전력 사용 패턴 정보를 이용하여 자동 기기 식별 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 실험가구에 적용해본 결과, 기기별 전력사용 정보와 월별 예상 사용량 정보가 전력 소비 절감에 도움이 된다는 응답을 얻을 수 있었다. 그리고 시스템을 보다 편리하게 사용하기 위해서는 설치의 편의성과 UI를 개선해야한다는 응답을 얻었다. 본 연구에서는 UI 개선을 위하여 일반냉장고, TV, 전기밥솥, 김치냉장고, 세탁기를 자동으로 식별하는 알고리즘을 구현하였다. 자동 장치 식별 알고리즘은 전력 모니터링 과정에서 수집한 전력 소비 패턴을 관찰하여 Zero-Crossing Rate(ZC), Variation of On State(VO), Slope of On State(SO), Duty Cycle(DC) 등 4가지 특징을 규정하여 이용하였으며, 특징을 적용하는 시간 구간은 기기가 동작하는 시간이 25% 이상이 되는 2시간 길이의 구간을 이용하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 테스트 set에 동일한 기기를 포함하는 경우 82.1%의 성능을 얻을 수 있었다.

As the development of total management systems for sites along with site environmental information is becoming standard, the system known as the Site Information and Total Environmental database management System (SITES) has been developed over the last two years. The first result was a database management system for storing data obtained from facilities, and a site characterization in addition to an environmental assessment of a site. The SITES database is designed to be effective and practical for use with facility management and safety assessment in relation to Geographic Information Systems. SITES is a total management program, which includes its database, its data analysis system required for site characterization, a safety assessment modeling system and an environment monitoring system. It can contribute to the institutional management of the facility and to its safety reassessment. SITES is composed of two main modules: the SITES Database module (SDM) and the Monitoring & Assessment (M&A) module [1]. The M&A module is subdivided into two sub-modules: the Safety Assessment System (SAS) and the Site Environmental Monitoring System (SEMS). SAS controls the data (input and output) from the SITES DB for the site safety assessment, whereas SEMS controls the data obtained from the records of the measuring sensors and facilities. The on-line site and environmental monitoring data is managed in SEMS. The present paper introduces the procedure and function of the M&A modules.

The location and human activity are usually used as one of the important parameters to monitor the health status in healthcare devices. However, nearly all existing location and monitoring systems have the limitation of short-range communication and high power consumption. In this paper, we propose a new mechanism to collect and transmit monitoring information based on LoRa technology. The monitoring device with sensors can collect the real-time activity and location information and transmit them to the cloud server through LoRa gateway. The user can check all his history and current information through the specific designed mobile applications. Experiment was carried out to verify the communication, power consumption and monitoring performance of the entire system. Experimental results demonstrate that this system can collect monitoring and activity information accurately and provide the long rang coverage with low power consumption.

발전소 내 고압 단자대 및 전력구 케이블 인입부에서 주변 전력기기들의 지속적인 진동 및 순간적인 충격의 발생으로 케이블 단자 또는 접속부 접촉점에 열화가 발생하는 사고가 일어난다. 접촉점에서의 열화 발생은 큰 사고로 이어질 수 있으며 안정적으로 전력을 공급해야 하는 발전소에서는 열화 발생을 예측하기 위한 다양한 연구가 시도되고 있다. 이에 비접촉식 적외선 센서를 이용하여 온도를 측정하는 방식이 있으며 이러한 방식의 궁극적인 목적은 측정하고자 하는 대상체를 최적의 거리에서 감시함으로 접촉점의 열화 발생뿐 아니라 센서 측정범위 내의 열화의 상태도 감시하는 데 있다. 연결부 온도를 측정하고 열화 상태를 실시간 감시하여 사용자에게 가시, 가청 알람을 주어 사용자가 열화사고를 인지하여 미연에 방지할 수 있게 한다. 그러나 이러한 시스템을 구축하기 위해서는 감시 장치를 설치, 운영해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 설치 용이성을 고려하여 소출력 배터리 동작모듈로 접속부의 온도를 측정하고 이를 감시할 수 있는 적외선센서를 이용한 무선감시시스템을 개발하였다.

A self-diagnostic monitoring system is a system that has the ability to measure various physical quantities such as temperature, pressure, or acceleration from sensors scattered over a mechanical system such as a power plant, in order to monitor its various states, and to make a decision about its health status. We have developed a self-diagnostic monitoring system for an air-operated valve system to be used in a nuclear power plant. In this study, we have tried to improve the self-diagnostic monitoring system to increase its reliability. We have implemented three different machine learning algorithms, i.e., logistic regression, an artificial neural network, and a support vector machine. After each algorithm performs the decision process independently, the decision-making module collects these individual decisions and makes a final decision using a majority vote scheme. With this, we performed some simulations and presented some of its results. The contribution of this study is that, by employing more robust and stable algorithms, each of the algorithms performs the recognition task more accurately. Moreover, by integrating these results and employing the majority vote scheme, we can make a definite decision, which makes the self-diagnostic monitoring system more reliable.

In this study, a monitoring method to detect chip disposal state in drilling system based on neural network was proposed and its performance was evaluated. If chip flow is bad during drilling, not only the static component but also the fluctuation of dynamic component of drilling. Drilling torque is indirectly measured by sensing spindle motor power through a AC spindle motor drive system. Spindle motor power being measured drilling, four quantities such as variance/mean, mean absolute deviation, gradient, event count were calculated as feature vectors and then presented to the neural network to make a decision on chip disposal state. The selected features are sensitive to the change of chip disposal state but comparatively insensitive to the change of drilling condition. The 3 layerd neural network with error back propagation algorithm has been used. Experimental results show that the proposed monitoring system can successfully recognize the chip disposal state over a wide range of drilling condition even though it is trained under a certain drilling condition.
