Bluetooth is the key technology in the wireless connection of many Internet of Things (IoT) devices, especially focused on smartphones today. In addition, Bluetooth communication between the IoT device and the user is mainly performed via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), but as the Bluetooth technology gradually develops, the security vulnerability of the existing BLE is more prominent. Research on Bluetooth accessibility has been conducted steadily so far, but there is lack of research for data protection in Bluetooth communication. Therefore, in this paper, when sending and receiving data in BLE communication between IoT and users, we propose effective methods for communicating with each other through the Format Preserving Encryption Algorithm (FEA), not the plain text, and measures performance of FEA which is optimized in Arduino and PC.

This paper proposes multiple access method for smart doorlock system using VLC(Visible Light Communication) with color grid modulation method. The proposed method is to connect multiple visible light signals using color grid modulation method in order to recognize and authenticate multiple users accessing doorlock. In order to enable visible light multiple access with existing infrastructure, the symbol energy interval of signal should be maximized. Thus, performance of system in VLC channel is measured by modulating symbols based on the proposed method. We confirm the actual channel test results of the modulated signal to implement doorlock system that recognizes the number of multiple access users.

This paper presents implementation possibilities of digital IoT doorlock systems via VLC(Visible Light Communication)'s color grid. The color grid-based VLC modulation scheme which are discussed in this paper utilize the straightness of light and abundant frequency resources which are the properties of the light. Performance results in this paper are compared to that of conventional modulations with Bit Error Rate (BER) and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) simulations. With respect to a channel model, the proposed modulation schemes select the nearest Line Of Sight (LOS) except Non Line Of Sight (NLOS). Experiments in this paper show error rates of received symbols by changing power dB at a distance of 3m between Tx and Rx in an indoor environment. Through performance results and experiments, this paper demonstrates superiority of the proposed color grid-based modulation schemes.

Purpose: To continuously monitor soil and climatic properties, a data acquisition system (DAQ) was developed and tested in plum farms (Gyewol-ri and Haechang-ri, Suncheon, Korea). Methods: The DAQ consisted of a Raspberry-Pi processor, a modem, and an ADC board with multiple sensors (soil moisture content (SEN0193), soil temperature (DS18B20), climatic temperature and humidity (DHT22), and rainfall gauge (TR-525M)). In the laboratory, various tests were conducted to calibrate SEN0193 at different soil moistures, soil temperatures, depths, and bulk densities. For performance comparison of the SEN0193 sensor, two commercial moisture sensors (SMS-BTA and WT-1000B) were tested in the field. The collected field data in Raspberry-Pi were transmitted and stored on a web server database through a commercial communications wireless network. Results: In laboratory tests, it was found that the SEN0193 sensor voltage reading increased significantly with an increase in soil bulk density. A linear calibration equation was developed between voltage and soil moisture content depending on the farm soil bulk density. In field tests, the SEN0193 sensor showed linearity (R = 0.76 and 0.73) between output voltage and moisture content; however, the other two sensors showed no linearity, indicating that site-specific calibration is important for accurate sensing. In the long-term monitoring results, it was observed that the measured climate temperature was almost the same as website information. Soil temperature information was higher than the values measured by DS18B20 during spring and summer. However, the local rainfall measured using TR 525M was significantly different from the values on the website. Conclusion: Based on the test results obtained using the developed monitoring system, it is thought that the measurement of various parameters using one device would be helpful in monitoring plum growth. Field data from the local farm monitoring system can be coupled with website information from the weather station and used more efficiently.

This paper has designed, fabricated, and analyzed the passive devices realized using low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) multi layer substrates by dividing into the shrinkage process and the non-shrinkage process. Using two types of ceramic materials with dielectric constant 7 or 40, we have fabricated the same shape of various elements in 2 different processes and compared the characteristics. For the substrate of dielctric constant 40, compared with the shrinkage process which has 17% shrink in the X and Y directions with 36% shrink in the Z direction, the non-shrinkage process has 43% shrink in the Z direction without shrink in the X and Y directions, so high dimensional accuracy and surface flatness can be obtained. The inductances and capacitances of the fabricated elements are estimated from measurement using empirical analysis equations of parameters and implemented as a design library. Depending on the substrate and the process, the inductance and capacitance depending on the turn number of winding and unit area have been measured, and empirical polynomials are proposed to predict element values.

Due to the fourth industrial revolution called 'fusion and connection', interest in 'high connectivity society' and 'highland society' is increasing, and related objects are not limited to automation and connected cars. The Internet of Things is the main concern of the 4th Industrial Revolution and it is expected to play an important role in establishing the basis of the next generation mobile communication service. Several domestic and foreign companies have been studying various types of LPWANs for the construction of the Internet based on things, and there is Semtech's LoRaWAN technology as representative. LoRaWAN is a long-distance, low-power network designed to manage a large number of devices and sensors, with communications from hundreds to thousands to thousands of devices and sensors. In this paper, we analyze the optimum node capacity of gateway for maximum performance while reducing resource waste in using LoRaWAN.

Recently, use of cloud computing service is dramatically increasing due to wired and wireless communications network diffusion in a field of high performance Internet technique. Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. In a view of digital forensic investigation, it is difficult to obtain data from cloud computing service environments. therefore, this paper suggests analysis method of AWS(Amazon Web Service) and Rackspace which take most part in cloud computing service where IaaS formats presented for data acquisition in order to get an evidence.

VANET (Vehicular Ad-hoc Network) is a type of MANET (Mobile Ad-hoc Network) which is the next-generation networking technology to provide communication between vehicles or between vehicle and RSU (Road Side Unit) using wireless communication. In VANET system, a vehicle accident is likely to cause awful disaster. Therefore, in VANET environment, authentication techniques for the privacy protection and message are needed. In order to provide them privacy, authentication, and conditional, non-repudiation features of the group signature scheme using a variety of security technologies are being studied. In this paper, and withdrawal of group members to avoid frequent VANET environment is suitable for vehicles produced by the group administrator for a private signing key to solve the key escrow problem of a group signature scheme is proposed. We proposed a message batch verification scheme using Bloom Filter that can verify multiple messages efficiently even for multiple communications with many vehicles.

In this paper, in order to minimize limitations such as signal interference and positioning errors in existing indoor positioning systems, a smart LED-based positioning system for excellent line-of-sight radio environments and precise location tracking is proposed to improve accuracy. An IEEE 802.4 Zigbee module is mounted on the SMPS board of a smart LED; RSSI and LQI signals are received from a moving tag, and the system is configured to transmit the measured data to the positioning server through a gateway. For the experiment, the necessary hardware, such as the gateway and the smart LED module, were separately designed, and the experiment was conducted after configuring the system in an external field office. The positioning error was within 70cm as a result of performing complex calculations in the positioning server after transmitting a vector value of the moving object obtained from the direction sensor, together with a signal from the moving object received by the smart LED. The result is a significantly improved positioning error, compared to an existing short-range wireless communications-based system, and shows the level at which commercial products can be implemented.

In this paper, we propose a non-intrusive load monitoring(NILM) system which can find the power of each home appliance from the aggregated total power as the activation in the trading market of the distributed resource and the increasing importance of energy management. We transform the amount of appliances' power into a power on-off state by preprocessing. We use LSTM as a model for predicting states based on these data. Accuracy is measured by comparing predicted states with real ones after postprocessing. In this paper, the accuracy is measured with the different number of electronic products, data postprocessing method, and Time step size. When the number of electronic products is 6, the data postprocessing method using the Round function is used, and Time step size is set to 6, the maximum accuracy can be obtained.
