Abstract:
PURPOSE: A vehicle position recognition apparatus using a vehicle internal network and an image sensor and a method thereof are provided to recognize vehicle position by acquiring a sensor value in a vehicle by linking with the vehicle internal network using a GPS satellite signal, and to recognize current position of the vehicle by performing map matching using the image sensor and previously constructed database. CONSTITUTION: A vehicle position recognition apparatus (100) includes an initial position receiving part (110), an image data processing part (120), a database part (130), a vehicle internal network connection part (140) and a position calculation part (150). The initial position receiving part receives initial position information of a vehicle by an external input. The image data processing part receives an image signal generated by photographing a recognizable and fixed object around the current position of the vehicle from an image sensor installed in the vehicle, and extracts image signal information about the recognizable object from the image signal. The database part is structured with geographical information and information about recognizable object related with the position of the vehicle in the geography. The vehicle internal network connection part receives information about travelling state of the vehicle by connecting to the internal network of the vehicle. The position calculation part calculates current position of the vehicle on the basis of information received from the initial position receiving part, the image data processing part, the database part and the vehicle internal network connection part.

Abstract:
PURPOSE: An infra information collecting device and a method thereof, and a position measuring method and a system thereof are provided to quickly and accurately measure an AP position through an indoor map in an indoor space. CONSTITUTION: A terminal receives wireless communication infra information based on an indoor map from a position server(S300,S310). The first position calculating module obtains identification information and a signal measuring value of adjacent APs(S320). The first position calculating module checks positions of the APs from the wireless communication infra information(S330). The terminal calculates a position of the terminal based on the checked AP positions and a signal measuring signal(S340).
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for converting automatic Korean-English and a device thereof are provided to switch a Korean/English mode without pressing a Korean/English button when inputting a character of a Qwerty keyboard. CONSTITUTION: An input unit(120) generates a key input signal in accordance with the input of character keys arranged on a keyboard. A judgment unit(140) compares a shift key with a character key corresponding to a key input signal generated in a Hangul mode, analyzes the kind of keys based on key class information and determines the output of Hangul or English characters. An output unit(160) outputs a Hangul character corresponding to the key input signal generated by the input unit or the automatically switched English character.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method and a device thereof are provided to calculate accurate frame transmission time by using a same method regardless of the change of a pattern interval inserted for estimating a channel and an insertion start reference value. CONSTITUTION: A transmission frame checking part(110) calculates the length of a transfer frame as a bit value. The transmission frame checking part compares the length of the transmission frame with a predetermined reference value of an insertion pattern for estimating a channel. A pattern insertion part(120) inserts at least one pattern for estimating a channel into a frame which is greater than the predetermined reference value. A transmission time calculating part(130) calculates the transmission time of a frame which has a pattern for estimating at least one channel in order to estimate a channel. A controller(140) controls an entire operation. A communications part(150) transmits an RTS(Request to Send) to a base station for reserving a channel generated in the controller.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A cooperative communications method in a vehicular communication is provided to define signal transmission method in a transmission vehicle, thereby improving communication function according to spatial diversity gain. CONSTITUTION: When a vehicle-S(100) transfers a signal to vehicle-D(300), a signal transmitted form vehicle-S is transferred to vehicle-D through roadside device-R(200) or vehicle-R1 and vehicle-R2. The vehicle-D demodulates the signal after a signal received from various paths. The roadside device-R, the vehicle-R1, the vehicle-R2 performs relay role for signal transformation of the vehicle-S.
