We are moving into the era of ubiquitous computing. Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN) is a base of such computing paradigm, where recognizing the identification and the position of objects is important. For the object identification, RFID tags are commonly used. For the object positioning, use of sensors such as laser and ultrasonic scanners is popular. Recently, there have been a few attempts to apply RFID technology in robot localization by replacing the sensors with RFID readers to achieve simpler and unified USN settings. However, RFID does not provide enough sensing accuracy for some USN applications such as robot navigation, mainly because of its inaccuracy in distance measurements. In this paper, we describe our approach on achieving accurate navigation using RFID. We solely rely on RFID mechanism for the localization by providing coordinate information through RFID tag installed floors. With the accurate positional information stored in the RFID tag, we complement coordinate errors accumulated during the wheel based robot navigation. We especially focus on how to distribute RFID tags (tag pattern) and how many to place (tag granularity) on the RFID tag-floor. To determine efficient tag granularities and tag patterns, we developed a simulation program. We define the error in navigation and use it to compare the effectiveness of the navigation. We analyze the simulation results to determine the efficient granularities and tag arrangement patterns that can improve the effectiveness of RFID navigation in general.

An UHF RFID tag is designed and fabricated using the national code in a bar-code with conductive ink. The bar-code sample was taken from a general bar-code from a general box. The conductivity of the conductive ink was measured, and the measured conductivity was used for the simulation tool to design the printed bar-code shape tag antenna. The tag antenna was fabricated using T-matching to reduce the size of the tag, and the bar-code tag antenna is recognized by both a general bar-code reader and an UHF RFID reader. The input reflection coefficient characteristic, the reading range pattern and the reading rate of the tag antenna are measured.

This paper introduce UHF miniaturized RFID tag antenna which is embedded on the seal-bolt or plastic bolt for automobile plate. To detect the illegal and un-registered car, the illegal automobile detection system has been developed using the seal-bolt UHF RIF tag antenna. The diameter of seal-bolt UHF tag is about 24mm, almost the same size as 100 Won coin. The simulated and measured reflection coefficient are compared, and the reading range patten is also measured. If seal-bolt tag is embedded on car plate, police can get information of automobile and detect illegal vehicles easily with the illegal automobile detection system.

A long range UHF RFID tag with a rectangular metallic cavity structure is proposed for various applications with metallic objects. The proposed tag consists of a rectangular metallic cavity structure and a folded dipole antenna which is located on top of the cavity. The tag is designed for Korean UHF RFID band(910~914 MHz) and the bandwidth, which satisfies the -10 dB input reflection coefficient requirement, is approximately 1.3 %(904~916 MHz). Measurement demonstrates that the proposed tag shows long reading range up to 15 m when it is placed on a metallic plate.

We investigated the effects of substrate, metal-line, and surface material on the performance of radio frequency identification(RFID) tag antenna using a tag antenna with a meander line radiator and T-matching network. The results showed that readability of the tag antenna with a thin high-loss substrate could be increased so that it was similar to that of a low-loss substrate if the substrate was very thin. The readability of the tag antenna decreased significantly when the metal line was thinner than the skin depth. The readability of the tag also decreased drastically when the tag was attached to high-permittivity high-loss target objects.

In this paper, we first construct a mathematical model for tagSNP selection based on LD measure $r^2$, then aiming at this kind of model, we develop an efficient algorithm, which is called approximate greedy algorithm. This algorithm is able to make up the disadvantage of the greedy algorithm for tagSNP selection. The key improvement of our approximate algorithm over greedy algorithm lies in that it adds local replacement(or local search) into the greedy search, tagSNP is replaced with the other SNP having greater similarity degree with it, and the local replacement is performed several times for a tagSNP so that it can improve the tagSNP set of the local precinct, thereby improve tagSNP set of whole precinct. The computational results prove that our approximate greedy algorithm can always find more efficient solutions than greedy algorithm, and improve the tagSNP set of whole precinct indeed.

웹사이트의 블로그에서 등록된 게시물을 분류, 표현하는 방식으로 카테고리 분류방식과 Tag cloud 분류방식을 사용하고 있다. 그러나 카테고리분류방식은 같은 게시물이라도 블로그 관리자별로 해당 분류의 생성기준이 주관적인 판단에 따라 다른 분류에 속할 수 있어 이용자들이 찾고자 하는 게시물을 검색하는데 많은 시간이 소요될 수 있다는 단점이 있다. 또한 이를 보완하는 방안으로 사용되는 Tag cloud 방식은 태그들을 흩어놓아 원하는 정보를 빠르게 찾는데 한계가 있다. 이에 본 논문은 블로그에서 태그들을 그룹화하여 구현한 트리형 Tag cloud(이하 'TreeTag cloud') 모델을 통해 카테고리 분류방식의 트리 구조의 장점인 직관성 및 구조화와 Tag cloud 분류방식의 장점인 짧은 search depth 를 결합하여 구현하는 방법을 제안하였다.

A circular UHF RFID tag has been designed. This circular tag antenna can be optimized simply by controling two parameters, outer radius and inner radius of the tag antenna. The resistance and resistance values of the tag antenna have been researched based on the variation of inner and outer radii of the circular tag antenna. The simulation and measurement results are compared.

This paper proposes a tag antenna for radio frequency identification (RFID) food system. The RFID tag antenna is designed and fabricated based on the rectangular loop concept used in the UHF band (Korean and Japanese standards, 916.7-923.5MHz). The proposed tag antenna is composed of a radiation patch, sensor tag chip, temperature sensor, oscillator, and battery. We conjugated matching between the tag antenna and the sensor tag using a U-shaped stub. Details of the proposed tag antenna design and the simulated and measured results are presented and discussed.
