In this paper we propose design of a multi-protocol gateway middleware based on USN. The proposed multi-protocol gateway middleware defined the transmit messages format, and were used the USN module interface protocol for connect to external application MCU using the UART. In this case, the gateway was checks the communication state of Zigbee module with settings information, and setting Zigbee serial PDU format. The experimental results of the proposed multi-protocol gateway middleware were proved the efficiency of integrate protocol gateway to use the multi-protocol gateway than gateway to using the repeater through the power control and communications a controlled experiment.

Currently, LPWA(Low Power Wide Area) communication technology is widely used due to the development of IoT(Internet of Things) technology. Among the LPWA technologies, LoRaWAN(Long Range Wide Area Network) is widely used in many fields due to its wide coverage, stable communication speed, and low-cost modem module prices. In particular, LoRa(Long Range) can easily construct LoRaWAN with a dedicated gateway. So many organizations are building their own LoRaWAN-based networks. The LoRaWAN Gateway receives the LoRa packet transmitted from an End-device installed in the adjacent location, converts it into the Internet protocol, and sends the packet to the final destination server. Current LoRa Gateway uses a single-hop method, and each gateway must include a communication network capable of the Internet. If it is the mobile communication(i.e., WCDMA, LTE, etc.) network, it is required to pay the internet usage fee which is installed in each gateway. If the LoRa communication is frequent, the user has to spend a lot of money. We propose an idea on how to design a multi-hop protocol which enables packet routing between gateways by analyzing the LoRaWAN communication method implemented in its existing single-hop way in this paper. For this purpose, this paper provides an analysis of the standard specification of LoRaWAN and explains what was considered when such protocol was designed. In this paper, two gateways have been placed based on the functional role so as to make the multi-hop protocol realized: (i) hopping gateway which receives packets from the end-device and forwards them to another gateway; and (ii) main gateway which finally transmits packets forwarded from the hopping gateway to the server via internet. Moreover, taking into account that LoRaWAN is wireless mobile communication, a level-based routing method is also included. If the protocol proposed by this paper is applied to the LoRaWAN network, the monthly internet fee incurred for the gateway will be reduced and the reliability of data transmission will be increased.

Multi-functional USN Gateway (MUG) is a multipurpose system combining a mesh router and a sensor gateway. The paper presents the design and implementation of the MUG system and the test-bed to verify the MUG system. MUG combines IEEE 802.11n based Wi-Fi mesh router functions and USN gateway functions. MUG supports IP sensor networks based on 6LoWPAN and non IP sensor networks based on ZigBee. MUG also provides various backhaul network interfaces including WiBro, HSDPA, and Ethernet Interfaces. We verify the feasibility of the MUG system through implementation and evaluate the performance by installing and testing several MUG systems in the test-bed.

In this paper we propose a multi-protocol gateway system based on low power wireless communications. The proposed multi-protocol gateway system was designed to allow real-time monitoring and control of the on-site situation through wired and wireless networks by gathering information for streetlight power control and environmental monitoring. The sensing data using multi-sensors with composite processing that selectively used wired or wireless communication (e.g., CDMA, Ethernet (TCP/IP), GPS, etc.) were designed to act as intermediaries that transmitted to the main server through ZigBee. Inaddition, they were designed by separating a CPU board and baseboard to ensure low maintenance cost and ease of hardware replacement. The proposed multi-protocol gateway system's power, impact, continuous operation stability, and immunity test results obtained a normal operation success rate of over 95% and normal continuous operation results. Moreover, in the voltage drop test, instantaneous immunity test, and conductive RF electromagnetic field immunity test, it obtained an average rating result of "A".

Underwater sensor network has attracted more and more attention from the networking research community recently. Most of traditional studies focus on the topology with a single gateway. Underwater sensor network consists of a variable number of sensors and multi-gateway to ensure the reliability of the network. In this paper, we propose a new MAC protocol that can reduce collisions among sensor nodes and improve QoS(Quality of Service) for underwater sensor network with multi-gateway. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme through simulation. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing MAC protocol.

We introduce the concept of a remote distributed embedded system to integrated fieldbus based control systems in internet/Intranet. As a result fieldbus systems are opened up for remote monitoring, remote maintenance, and remote control applications using state of the art Web-technology. This paper addresses the design of a remote distributed embedded system using Internet and CAN for multi-Induction motor of Building and Industrial field. The fieldbus used the CAN based networked intelligent multi-motor control system using DSP2812 microprocessor. To build such a system, the TCP/IP-CAN Gateway which convert a CAN protocol to TCP/IP protocol and vice verse, was designed. A experimental simulation system consists of a TCP/IP-CAN Gateway in remote place and a command PC ti be connected ti Ethernet.

Virus protection infrastructure management is network infrastructure management, traffic route management, virus protection zone expansion, and virus protection management for gateway area. This research paper provides a diagnosis of characteristics and weaknesses of the structure of existing virus protection infrastructure, and recommends an improved multi-level virus protection infrastructure as a measure for correcting these weaknesses. Unproved virus protection infrastructure fitters unnecessary mail at the gateway stage to reduce the toad on server. As a result, number of transmission accumulation decreases due to the reduction in the CPU load on the Virus wall and increase in virus treatment rate.

As the amount of data between ECUs has increased, the FlexRay consortium proposed FlexRay network system which has larger bandwidth than CAN. But because of implementation cost, CAN and FlexRay hybrid network with FlexRay-CAN gateway will make up the largest part of in-vehicle networks for the present. In this paper, a FlexRay-CAN gateway for a real time feedback control system is implemented, and a data packing algorithm is presented. Finally, a real control experiment with multi-motor system is conducted to verify the proposed gateway system.

A small size and light-weight DSP board is newly designed for a real time multi-distributed control system that overcomes constraints on time and space. There are a variety of protocols for a real-time distributed control system. In this research, we selected CAN for the multi distributed control, which was developed by the BOSCH in the early 1980's. If CAN and Internet are connected together, the system attains the characteristics of a distributed control system and a remote control system simultaneously. To build such a system. The TCP/IP-CAN Gateway which converts a CAN protocol to TCP/IP protocol and vice verse, was designed. Moreover, the system is required to be small and light-weighted for the high mobility and cost effectiveness. The equipment in remote place has a TCP/IP-CAN Gateway on itself to be able to communicate with another systems. The received commands in the remote site are converted from TCP/IP protocol to CAN protocol by the TCP/IP-CAN Gateway in real time. A simulation system consists of a TCP/IP-CAN Gateway in remote place and a command PC to be connected to Ethernet.
