Abstract:
Provided is a cross-layer routing method in a wireless sensor network including: locating a destination node which is a final destination of data by a source node which generates the data; and determining an optimal relay node among one or more neighboring nodes using their position information for each hop and forwarding the data from the source node to the destination node through the determined relay nodes. Therefore, an effective and stable routing which reduces overheads of additional control messages used for stable data forwarding and reduces collisions in a shared channel by using wireless link layer characteristics can be implemented.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of minimizing power consumed by each node in a wireless network when communicating with neighboring nodes.Unlike a conventional synchronous media access control (MAC), the present invention suggests an asynchronous MAC. Thus, the active duration of a node extends only when transmitting a large quantity of data and the extended active duration returns to the minimum active duration again after completing the data transmission.
Abstract:
Provided is a wireless sensor network using a dynamic message routing algorithm and a method of controlling the wireless sensor network. Therefore, a network system can be provided, in which each sensor node calculates a relay probability, periodically updates the relay probability, and dynamically determines a node for relaying a message on the basis of the relay probability, so that throughput per node is improved and a media access control (MAC) layer is not needed.

The present invention relates to an antenna for an RFID tag chip. The antenna includes a dielectric material, a radiating patch that scatters a signal from the RFID tag chip for transmitting the scattered signal, and microstrip lines having a terminal for the RFID tag chip. Accordingly, a small antenna that can be attached to metal can be realized.
Abstract:
Provided are a media access method and a reader for performing the media access method in a dense reader environment. The media access method divides an air time between the reader and a tag into a plurality of time slots, and operates in each of the plurality of time slots by using a listen before talking (LBT) technique. The plurality of time slots form a frame. Thus, the media access method can control the reader by performing channel scheduling between each of a plurality of readers and can efficiently recognize tags.

Abstract:
Provided is a planar inverted-F antenna (PIFA) which has a Co-Planar Waveguide (CPW) feeding structure and can be attached to a metal surface, and an RFID tag using the same. The PIFA includes a radiation patch layer; a Co-Planar Waveguide (CPW) feeding layer; a feeding probe; and a short-circuit. The CPW feeding layer includes a feeding means and a ground surface. The feeding probe electrically connects the radiation patch layer and the feeding means and provides a Radio Frequency (RF) signal to be radiated to the radiation patch layer. The short-circuiting means short-circuits the radiation patch layer and the ground surface through the dielectric layer. The PIFA can be applied to a passive RFID tag. Impedance matching between the antenna and the RFID chip is possible. Also, the PIFA can easily control resonant frequency of the antenna and reactance.
