Abstract:
Disclosed is an asynchronous MAC based sensor node using a Wake-Up RF. The sensor node includes a main transceiver to transmit/receive data, a Wake-Up transceiver to transit a state of the sensor node; and a micro-control unit, which transmits a Wake-Up frame to at least one receiving node through the Wake-Up transceiver such that the receiving node is activated from an inactive state into an active state and transmits data to the activated receiving node through the main transceiver. The asynchronous MAC based sensor node reduces unnecessary power consumption, hop-by-hop delay, and overhead required for timing synchronization, thereby implementing an effective sensor
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method and apparatus for setting a packet are provided to serve as a server by using a conventional user terminal serving as a client of IP socket communications without establishment of port forwarding of a PPP(Point to Point Protocol) server or an IP sharing device. CONSTITUTION: A user terminal obtains a domain name of a MTC(Machine-Type Communications) device and a public IP address of an IPFS(IP Packet Forwarding Server)(S802,S804). The user terminal requests call identifier allocation of the IPFS for connecting to an MTC device(S806). The IPFS assigns one of available TCP/UDP(User Datagram Protocol) communication ports to a call identifier(S808). The IPFS transmits a wake-up signal(S810). The MTC device attempts TCP/UDP socket establishment(S812). The IPFS registers the call identifier and an NAT(Network Address Translation) IP, a port number, and a life cycle value of the MTC device in a packet forwarding information management table(S814). The call identifier is transmitted to the user terminal(S816).

Abstract:
PURPOSE: A sensor node equipped having a wake-up module, a wakeup sequence control device, and a method thereof, are provided to control the wakeup sequence of MCU by using a hardware module. CONSTITUTION: If a beacon frame is transmitted or received, a MCU(200) confirms the information of the beacon frame. A MCU establishes registers. MCU converts a present mode into a sleep mode. If the interrupt is inputted, the MCU is converted from the sleep mode into an active mode. A wake-up module(300) multiplies the counter value in case of establishing the registers. A wake-up module outputs the interrupt according to the comparison result of the counter value and the BI(Beacon Interval) value identified from the beacon frame.

PURPOSE: A device and method for supplying power in a wireless sensor network are provided to efficiently process the same data transferred to a cluster head sensor node through a plurality of paths in the wireless sensor network, thereby reducing a wireless transmission number in the cluster head sensor node. CONSTITUTION: Operating software is installed in an MCU(Micro Controller Unit). A charging and controlling circuit(318) comprises a battery managing unit(420) and a battery identifying unit(410). The battery managing unit controls an operation for protecting or charging an internal battery(316). The battery identifying unit wirelessly estimates a chargeable power amount in a cascade sensor node. The battery identifying unit measures the capacity of the internal battery.
Abstract:
An apparatus for executing a MAC application program, and an apparatus and a method for task scheduling of a sensor node based on an MAC are provided to shorten the development period of an MAC program by efficiently re-using a MAC application program at various hardware platforms. An MAC(Medium Access Control) program unit(220) executes a MAC program, and at least one hardware interface unit(211) includes hardware control subroutines that are approaching a hardware device of a hardware platform(201). When the MAC program unit calls the hardware control sub-routines, a hardware standard interface unit(212) executes a hardware control sub-routine that corresponds to the one hardware platform.
Abstract:
A method for configuring a network of nodes with a tree structure is provided to reduce network reconfiguration overhead caused by autonomous withdrawal of the nodes or consumption of a battery in a sensor network with a tree structure. A method for configuring a network of nodes with a tree structure comprises the following several steps. It is checked whether or not the first node has child nodes, and withdrawal is requested to a parent node if the first node has not child nodes(101,103). One among the child nodes is selected on the basis of remaining power of the child nodes if the first node has child nodes(101,105,107). The first node exchanges positions with the selected child node and withdrawal is requested to the parent node if the selected child node has no child node(109,111-115). The steps of 105,107,109, and 111-115 are repeated if the selected child node has child nodes(109,117,119).

Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for collecting area charge on the Internet and a method for authenticating a user therefor are provided to realize regionally dispersed charge collecting. CONSTITUTION: An Internet connected user requests an Internet contents provider to a charge collecting device, MF router(S1). The charge collecting device searches for user data through a temporary user data table(S2). If the user data does not exist, the charge collecting device searches for user data at an authentication/billing server(S4-S5). If the user data do not exist, the charge collecting device sends guide information and a register form to a user(S7). The user registers user's data at the authentication/billing server and the temporary user data table(S8). The user receives a response to the registration and uses wanted information(S9-S11).
