In industrial applications, sensor networks have to satisfy specified time requirements of exchanged messages. IEEE 802.15.4 defines the communication protocol of the physical and medium access control layers for wireless sensor networks, which support real-time transmission through guaranteed time slots (GTSs). In order to improve the performance of IEEE 802.15.4 in industrial applications, this paper proposes a new traffic scheduling algorithm for GTS. This algorithm concentrates on time-critical industrial periodic messages and determines the values of network and node parameters for GTS. It guarantees real-time requirements of periodic messages for industrial automation systems up to the order of tens to hundreds of milliseconds depending on the traffic condition of the network system. A series of simulation results are obtained to examine the validity of the scheduling algorithm proposed in this study. The simulation results show that this scheduling algorithm not only guarantees real-time requirements for periodic message but also improves the scalability, bandwidth utilization, and energy efficiency of the network with a slight modification of the existing IEEE 802.15.4 protocol.

A sensor system was designed to measure real time vibro displacement of civil structure. The He-Ne laser is used for the displacement measuring method, because it guarantees short time stabilization, long time output power stability. Also, it guarantees simple maintenances and repairs under actual using condition. The line CCD image sensor(Tcd-142d) is used to detect the displacement of Ne-Ne laser responding to the vibro of civil structure. For accurate measurement and comparison, CDP-50 is used. Usually CDF-50 (Strain type displacement device) is used for the standard correction device of optical measurement equipments. The data processing part is consists of Optical sensor part, Wireless data transmission device, DAQp-1200, and LapView program. The displacement data of vibro from optical sensor part inputted to wireless data transmission device and then transmitted to DAQp-1200 in main control room. DAQp-1200 performs A/D conversion for the receiving data. After that the converted data inputted to computer system using LapView program for user display. The significance of this paper is to develope a convenient, accurate and lost saving real time displacement measurement system for the civil structure.

최근 휴대폰과 같은 무선 인터넷 환경과 자원의 제약을 크게 받는 무선 센서 네트워크(wireless sensor network) 등에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 또한 신뢰성과 안전성이 보장된 센서 네트워크 구축을 위해 전반적으로 보안에 관한 연구가 반드시 필요하다. 센서 네트워크 보안을 위한 한 가지 방안으로 암호학적으로 안전한 알고리즘 개발이 필요하며, 따라서 본 논문에서는 휴대폰과 같은 무선 인터넷 환경, 무선 센서 네트워크, DRM(Digital Right Management) 등과 같은 실시간처리가 필요한 분야에 사용할 목적으로 소프트웨어 및 하드웨어 구현이 쉬운 128비트 스트림 암호 AA128을 제안한다.

In this paper, a real-time air quality monitoring system based on wireless network is designed and implemented for industrial park or multiuse facilities. The existing gas detector is high price and hard to apply the remote monitoring system. On the other hand, demand for air quality monitoring is increasing because of industrial gas accident, air pollution, and so on. In Korea, indoor air regulation was established by law. According to indoor air regulation, CO2, CO, and NO2 are important gases as the air quality standard. So we study the gas detector for indoor air quality and the wireless network system. The wireless network consist of sensor network and WCDMA to apply various place. To verify the performance of the implemented gas detector, the gas measurement experiment is performed in laboratory environment by using the realized gas detecting wireless sensor node. And we evaluate the experiment results.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are used for many real-time applications. User authentication is an important security service for WSNs to ensure only legitimate users can access the sensor data within the network. In 2012, Yoo and others proposed a security-performance-balanced user authentication scheme for WSNs, which is an enhancement of existing schemes. In this paper, we show that Yoo and others' scheme has security flaws, and it is not efficient for real WSNs. In addition, this paper proposes a new strong authentication scheme with user privacy for WSNs. The proposed scheme not only achieves end-party mutual authentication (that is, between the user and the sensor node) but also establishes a dynamic session key. The proposed scheme preserves the security features of Yoo and others' scheme and other existing schemes and provides more practical security services. Additionally, the efficiency of the proposed scheme is more appropriate for real-world WSNs applications.

For monitoring forest fires, a real-time system to prevent fires in wider areas should be supported consistently. However, there has still been a lack of the support for real-time system related to forest fire monitoring. In addition, the 'real-time' processing in a forest fire detection system can lead to excessive consumption of energy. To solve these problems, the intelligent data acquisition of sensing nodes is required, and the maximum energy savings as well as rapid and accurate detection by flame sensors need to be done. In this regard, this paper proposes a node built-in filter algorithm for intelligent data collection of sensing nodes for the rapid detection of forest fires with focus on reducing the power consumption of the remote sensing nodes and providing efficient wireless sensor network-based forest environment monitoring in terms of data transmission, network stability and data acquisition. The experimental result showed that battery life can be extended through the intelligent sampling of remote sensing nodes, and the average accuracy of the measurement of flame detection based on the distance is 44%.

Bridges are critical to the civil engineering infrastructure network as they facilitate movement of people, the transportation of goods and services. Given the aging of bridge infrastructure, federal officials mandate visual inspections biennially to identify necessary repair actions which are time, cost, and labor-intensive. Additionally, the expansion joints of bridges are rarely monitored due to cost. However, expansion joints are critical as they absorb movement from thermal effects, loadings strains, impact, abutment settlement, and vehicle motion movement. Thus, the need to monitor bridge expansion joints efficiently, at a low cost, and wirelessly is desired. This paper addresses bridge joint monitoring needs to develop a cost-effective, real-time wireless system that can be validated in a full-scale bridge structure. To this end, a wireless expansion joint monitoring was developed using commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) sensors. An in-service bridge was selected as a testbed to validate the performance of the developed system compared with traditional displacement sensor, LVDT, temperature and humidity sensors. The short-term monitoring campaign with the wireless sensor system with the internet protocol version 6 over the time slotted channel hopping mode of IEEE 802.15.4e (6TiSCH) network showed reliable results, providing high potential of the developed system for effective joint monitoring at a low cost.

In this paper, a wireless communication-based sensor data monitoring device with an explosion-proof (Exd IIC) case was implemented to enable installation at explosion-risk industrial sites such as plants. In existing industrial plant sites, most of the temperature sensors and vibration and impact sensors are wired up to several kilometers, which takes a lot of time and money to bury long pipes and cables. In addition, there are not many cases where some wireless devices have been applied to actual plant industry sites due to communication quality problems. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, zigbee mesh wireless communication was applied to provide high reliability wireless communication quality to industrial plant sites, and the time and cost incurred in new or additional installation of sensors could be greatly reduced. In particular, in the event of loss or error of some wireless communication devices, the communication network is automatically bypassed or recovered to enable real-time data monitoring.
