摘要:
Provided is a method of transmitting/receiving data in a sensor node for reducing overhearing of sensor nodes, and a sensor network which implements the method. A sender node having transmission data from among a plurality of nodes which perform a low power listening (LPL) operation in an asynchronous manner at predetermined time intervals, generates a long preamble including short preambles, each having information including a destination address of the transmission data, a remainder of the long preamble, and a length of the transmission data, and sequentially transmits the second preamble and the transmission data. A receiver node from among the plurality of nodes determines whether a valid signal is sensed during an active state in the LPL operation. If it is determined that the valid signal is sensed, the receiver node receives the short preamble transmitted from the sender node. The receiver node determines a duration time of a deactivated state of the receiver node based on the received first preamble, thereby reducing overhearing in the sensor network.

Provided are a node device of a beacon-enabled Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) managing a channel resource and a method thereof. The node device may generate a pseudo random binary sequence (PRBS) and generate a hopping sequence based on a number of available channels using the PRBS, thereby generating a hopping sequence having a characteristic of pseudo randomness and selecting a channel to be hopped, using the hopping sequence.

Provided is a distributional alert system using a ubiquitous sensor network (USN). When a disaster occurs, the distributional alert system detects it in a sensor node, informs the area where the disaster occurs of danger through an actuator, such as siren, or informs a management system of the danger through a wired/wireless network. The distributional alert system includes: a first sensor node for generating sense data by sensing surroundings with a sensor therein, determining whether a disaster occurs by analyzing the sense data, and creating and transmitting emergency data based on the determination result, while forming a sensor network; and an alerting node for receiving emergency data from the first sensor node on the sensor network, and outputting disaster circumstantial information to a sensor field of the sensor network upon receipt of the emergency data.

Provided is a method of constructing a tree network which includes a first node. The method comprises: (a) the first node determining if there is a child node and requesting a parent node to allow the first node to withdraw if there is no child node; (b) selecting a child node based on remaining amounts of battery power of each child node if there are child nodes of the first node; (c) exchanging positions of the first node and the selected child node and requesting the parent node to allow the first node to withdraw if the child node selected in operation (b) does not have child nodes; and (d) repeating operations (b) and (c) if the child node selected in operation (b) has child nodes. The present invention solves the problem of decreasing lifetimes of upper nodes that consume more battery power than lower nodes due to more traffic transmission and reception.

Provided is a method for buffering a receive packet in a sensor node including a radio frequency (RF) transceiver, a media access control (MAC) hardware block and a micro controller unit (MCU). The method includes the steps of: a) if a packet is received from the RF transceiver, checking whether or not a packet which is pre-stored in a receive first in first out (FIFO) exists; b) if the pre-stored packet exists in the receive FIFO at step a), checking whether a length of the received packet is the same with the length of the pre-stored packet in the receive FIFO; c) if the length of the received packet is the same with the length of the pre-stored packet in the receive FIFO at the step b), increasing the number of packet which is included in header information, and buffering a physical payload in the receive FIFO; and d) if the pre-stored packet does not exist in the receive FIFO at the step a) nor the length of the received packet is the same with the length of the pre-stored packet in the receive FIFO, consecutively buffering the physical payload with the header in the receive FIFO.

In a wireless sensor network system including at least one sensor network, when a network message received from a sensor node of a sensor network corresponds to a predetermined service, the wireless sensor network system forms a wireless local area network (WLAN) overlay network which is based on a WLAN system within a service area at which the sensor node is located. Data corresponding to the predetermined service is transmitted and received through the WLAN overlay network.

Provided are a method and apparatus for using a synchronous sensor network medium access control (MAC) protocol such as a ZigBee or IEEE 802.15.4 low-rate wireless personal area network (WPAN). Also provided are a method and apparatus for constructing a ubiquitous sensor network (USN) of which a life is increased by using power beacons and reducing the number of unnecessary control packets (beacon packets), thereby reducing an initialization time between nodes and preventing beacon collision. According to the present invention, a beacon packet channel having a large output power and a data channel of which a transmission range is restricted by reducing an output power to be less than that of the beacon packet channel, may be simultaneously used.
