A Raspberry Pi based transceiver system and MATLAB are used for the demodulation of the chirp signals. The experiments, for both air and water, are conducted in static conditions, that is the transmitter and receiver are fixed. To increase the efficiency of signal processing, down-conversion or bandpass sampling is implemented on the receiver side. We use transmission bands between 60~kHz and 70kHz to reduce the impact of divers' communication on the maritime ecosystem and its natural communication bands. The structure of the demodulation is discussed in detail with focus on the frame detection and decision algorithm. In several different settings, we demonstrate the performance of this approach and transmit data of up to 12 Byte with data rates of 100 and 200 bit/s over 0.25 m in air and 4.5 m in water inside a highly echoic environment.

The ASSIST infrastructure is used, which implements TCP/IP-based time synchronization for receiver nodes, timestamping of received chirps and server-side localization. Modifications of the original system are shown, as the transmission of signals at higher frequency and operation with high impedance transducers for the water channel. The results of position measurements in an indoor test pool as well as a small lake are shown to verify the systems functionality and investigate different multipath environments.

ReindlFuzzy inference system assisted inertial localization system 2017 International Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation (ICE/ITMC), Funchal, Portugal 2017 International Conference on Engineering, Technology and Innovation (ICE/ITMC) , pages : 89 - 93» show abstract « hide abstract Abstract In this paper we present a novel IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) based indoor localization system assisted by a fuzzy inference system (FIS). The positioning is achieved by simply applying double integration to the acceleration data. And the accumulative position errors are eliminated by using FIS based acceleration restriction. In this way, the system can be used for general cases without any scenario and condition limitations. By considering smartphone as the IMU, it is also possible to realize applications such as navigation in the supermarket or guiding blind people through buildings. Indoor experiment has been carried out to verify the benefit of FIS based acceleration restriction. The experimental results show that the proposed new system is able to follow the true trajectory and achieve a tracking accuracy improvement of 84% in comparison to the one without FIS based acceleration restriction.

However, for resilience enhancement of technical systems, the question arises how to achieve this aim in a systematic way. The present approach addresses the control of potentially disruptive events for an indoor logistics ultrasonic system, which can be used for locating goods or robots within storage or production halls. It is shown how to address in a systematic analytical process potentially disruptive events and how to generate scenarios for further detailed resilience analyses and evaluation. The scenarios are designed and assessed in such a way that technical requirements for increasing the resilience of the system can be derived. The paper describes the process in 8 steps: (1) system and context definition, (2) identification of system performance functions and related quantities, especially in undisturbed operation mode, (3) identification of potentially disruptive events and threats, (4) identification of critical combinations of disruptions and performance functions, e.g. using a resilience criticality matrix of combinations of performance functions and disruptions, (5) definitions of scenarios for detailed resilience assessment, (6) resilience assessment and analysis, (7) resilience evaluation, and (8) selection and implementation of design improvements. In addition, the paper exemplarily shows how such a resilience cycle informed process can be implemented and tailored for indoor logistic example.

ReindlWireless Sensor Networks using Robust Antenna Packages for Infrastructure Security 2013 8th Future Security 2013. Security Research Conference, Berlin, Germany Security Research Conference "Future Security" , Fraunhofer Verlag, pages : 368 - 374» show abstract « hide abstract Abstract A robust, high efficiency slot antenna integrated in the sensor packaging for a wake-up receiver working at 868 MHz is presented. The wake-up approach as well as a novel wireless sensor node architecture based on the ARM Cortex M3 is discussed. With the low power wake-up transceiver strategy the average sleep current could be reduced to only 3.0 uA. Resulting in a battery lifetime of 7 years with a BR2032 battery. Simulation and measurement data will be presented. In fiel-test more than 60 meter wake-up range could be demonstrated.
