Abstract:
An environment analysis system for indoor wireless location by using locations of a plurality of access points (AP) includes, a first environment analysis tool (10) for receiving indoor environment information for indoor wireless location, performing a simulation for calculating location accuracies, performing a simulation for relocating and/or additionally installing the access points (AP), and displaying results of the simulation; and a second environment analysis tool (20) for receiving wireless communications signals from the access points (AP), calculating distances from the second environment analysis tool (20) to the access points (AP), calculating a location of the second environment analysis tool (20), calculating errors in the distances and in the location calculated, and providing the errors calculated to the first environment analysis tool (10). The first environment analysis tool (10) corrects errors in the simulations performed thereby by using the errors received from the second environment analysis tool (20), and then repeats the simulations and the displaying process.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an RFID application interface method and a system thereof. In the present invention, an RFID middleware system changes a control request input from a user or an RFID application system according to a communication protocol of an RFID device to be controlled, and sends it to the RFID device. Also, when the user or the RFID application system inputs a data process policy that is common to various RFID devices of a logical RFID device group, the RFID middleware system generates data process rules that are suitable for communication capability and data processing capability of each RFID device based on the data process policy and provides an interface that allows processing of data by a corresponding RFID device. In addition, the RFID middle system defines a procedural flow of at least one of services and at least one of tasks that constitute an RFID business process and provides an interface to support interconnection and cooperation of services that are included in the RFID business process.
Abstract:
An apparatus for locating a mobile device includes a receiving unit receiving a trigger profile including predetermined zone information and a triggering rule about the generation of an alarm signal at the moment of entering and exiting of the predetermined zone, a location identifying unit locating a present location, a zone in/out detection unit generating the alarm signal according to the triggering rule based on the trigger profile and the present location located by the location identifying unit when entering the predetermined zone or exiting the predetermined zone, and a transmission unit transmitting the present location information identified by the location identifying unit when the alarm signal is generated.
Abstract:
An apparatus for managing a plurality of RFID readers includes a service policy managing unit that defines demands in the form of service policies to be understood by the plurality of RFID readers, a data processing rule managing unit that generates a data processing rule on the basis of the service policies, a collected data processing unit that receives a plurality of RFID tag data from the plurality of RFID readers, and generates integrated RFID events by applying the data processing rule to the plurality of RFID tag data, and a service report processing unit that provides results corresponding to the integrated RFID events.
Abstract:
Provided are a Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN) middleware apparatus and method for generating an information service based on heterogeneous sensor networks and a system for providing the information service using the same. In the system, a sensor node constructing a sensor network senses environment information, and a sensor network data transmitter collects sensed data sensed by the sensor node in real-time and transmits the collected sensed data in a message form. A USN middleware extracts object and environment information by cleaning, classifying and integrating the message received from the sensor network data transmitter, generates conditional events and context aware information from the extracted object and environment information, and provides the information service to an application program, the application program providing a user with information related to environment where the sensor network observes.
