Abstract:
PURPOSE: A sensor node device and a wireless sensor network system, and a collision information transmission method using the same are provided to effectively warn other vehicles driving on a road about the occurrence of an accident ahead by enabling sensor node devices around the collision site to emit light or flash on and off. CONSTITUTION: A sensor part(102) includes a sensor detecting a vehicle collision occurred to a guardrail. A control part(104) transmits collision occurrence information due to a collision through a communications part. A light-emitting part emits light. If a collision is detected, a light-emitting control part(105) makes the light-emitting part emit light or flash on and off according to the control of the control part. If a blink-triggering message is received through the communications part, the control part makes the light-emitting part flash on and off through the light-emitting control part.

Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for sensing an attachment and detachment of an external sensor module in a sensor node is provided to easily attach and detach a sensor module without turning off a power in a ubiquitous sensor network. CONSTITUTION: If an attachment and detachment signal which shows an attachment of a sensor module is outputted, a sensor node confirms an output port of the corresponding attachment and detachment signal(S130). In case the sensor module which is attached along the port is a sensor module which uses a first interface, the sensor node converts a signal which is outputted from the sensor module into a digital signal(S140,S150). In case the attached sensor module is not the sensor module which uses the first interface, the sensor node transmits a check message to a sensor which is included in the sensor module according to a usable interface(S170,S180). If a response signal is outputted from the sensor according to the check message, the sensor node records data which includes a type of the interface and a type of the attached sensor in a sensor module registration table(S160).

Abstract:
PURPOSE: A low power MAC method in a half-linear sensor network is provided to minimize sleep delay through data transmission of many hop in a single cycle by utilizing idle time of long preamble. CONSTITUTION: A long preamble consisting of a plurality of element preambles is generated. The generated long preamble is transmitted to a destination sensor node. After transmission of a long preamble is completed, data is transmitted to a purpose sensor node.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An unmanned bicycle management system, capable of supplying the load and return of a convenient bicycle to a user is provided to efficiently manage the bicycle to a unmanned bicycle management office through a fixed code. CONSTITUTION: An unmanned bicycle management office(100) supplies at least one service about loaning or storing the bicycle to a user. An integrated management server(200) integrates the unmanned bicycle management office in a type code system including an identification code of registered bicycles. The integrated management server manages the service about the bicycle.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An update server for updating a sensor node, the sensor node, and a method for updating the sensor node are provided to update an execution code by transmitting small amount of data through a network. CONSTITUTION: An execution code management unit(110) manages the execution codes for sensor nodes included in a sensor network, and a rule generating unit(120) compares existing execution codes managed by the execution code management unit with the update executing codes required for updating a new function. The rule generating unit generates an update rule based on the comparison results, and a download execution unit(130) downloads the update rules created by the rule creation unit to a corresponding sensor node.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: An apparatus for transmitting an executable file and a sensor node is provided to reduce unnecessary power consumption by transmitting an executable file corresponding to a changed portion when transmitting the executable file depending on program change. CONSTITUTION: A calculation file generator(100) generates a calculation file including an executable file according to the program change, and a calculation file comparator(110) compares the generated calculation file with the calculation file including the executable file stored prior to the program change. A data file transmitter(120) generates a data file corresponding to the changed portion based on the comparison result.

Abstract:
An apparatus for connecting heterogeneous networks in a sensor network and a method thereof are provided to increase the energy efficiency and data transmission efficiency of the sensor network by making nodes of the sensor network operate nodes of an external network as if they communicate with nodes of a different PAN. A virtual PAN(Personal Area Network) address generator(300) assigns a virtual PAN address to an external network node. A PAN header generator(310) produces a PAN header including the virtual PAN address. An address mapping table(330) stores the actual address of the external network node which is mapped to the virtual PAN address. A virtual PAN address inquiring unit(340) is the actual address of the external network node within the address mapping table. An IP header generator(350) generates an IP header including the actual address of the external network node.
