  • Publication number: 20090316701
    Abstract: An Internet protocol (IP)-based ubiquitous sensor network (USN) system is disclosed. The IP-based USN includes a plurality of sensor nodes having unique IP addresses and an IP-USN router. The IP-USN router has a table that stores each location address of the sensor nodes and periodically broadcasts its own presence information for updating the location addresses stored in the table. The sensor nodes in the IP-based USN system have unique IP addresses. Therefore, desired information and services from any external network may be obtained.

  • Publication number: 20090310519
    Abstract: An address assignment method of a mobile node, for hierarchical routing in a low-power wireless personal area network (LoWPAN), includes (a) classifying a plurality of fixed nodes in a hierarchical way, (b) designating a management node and a head node of a lower level than the level of the management node in the fixed nodes, (c) determining if the mobile node can communicate with the head node, and (d) assigning an address to the mobile node through a neighboring head node, which can communicate with the mobile node when the mobile node cannot communicate with the head node. Therefore, addresses may be assigned without limitation until the addresses for the mobile nodes are exhausted. Furthermore, even when the mobile node having an assigned address from a first region moves from the first region to a second region, the packet may be sent or received through the hierarchical routing.

  • Patent number: 7518282
    Abstract: A rotor, vibration motor having the same, and fabrication method thereof are disclosed. A rotor according to an embodiment of the invention comprises a first layer on which are formed a plurality of commutators, a second to an n-th layer—wherein n is 4 or greater—on which are formed a plurality of patterned coils that are connected with the commutators, insulation layers interposed in-between the first to the n-th layers; blind via holes which connect the commutators of the first layer with the patterned coils formed on the second layer and which connect the patterned coils formed on the (n?1)-th layer with the patterned coils formed on the n-th layer, and a plurality of through holes which connect the patterned coils formed on the second to the (n?1)-th layers, where the patterned coils located on the second to the (n?1)-th layers are connected by means of different through holes.

  • Patent number: 6806603
    Abstract: A flat type vibration motor includes a rotor rotatably assembled between a stator and a housing, wherein the rotor includes an insulator of eccentric mass integrally containing at least a winding coil corresponding to the magnet and a weight arranged eccentrically adjacent to the winding coils, and an upper board mounted on an underside of the insulator; a plurality of brushes; a plurality of annular slip rings arranged on an underside of the upper board to be concentric with the shaft, each of the rings contacting an upper end of each of the brushes; and an IC chip for converting the direction of electric current flowing through the winding coils by alternating the polarity of electric current which is introduced to the slip rings via the brushes and then supplied to the winding coil.
