To the convenience of passenger travel, a kind of electronic bus stop boards system is discussed in this paper, which can be considered as intelligent equipment based on wireless communication technology. The combination between short-range wireless and long-distance communication module, together with the microcontroller composes the electronic bus stop boards system. The electronic bus stop boards system indicates the number of stations away from passengers’ station board on different nearest buses, current time and real-time humiture. The test results showed that the system could realize short-range and long-distance communication function and display the necessary information. With the advantages of high reliability and efficiency at low cost, the electronic bus stop boards system has more practical popularized value to replace traditional intelligent station boards with GPS and GPRS by cheap wireless communication module.

To release the connection problem between two different wireless communication technologies in conventional smart home system, a new embedded wireless smart based on PXA270, Zigbee and GPRS was designed. Web server was built on embedded system which uses PXA270 as core, and the exchange of information between internal network and the Internet via Zigbee module and GPRS module. ZigBee network mainly for short-distance communication and the GPRS network mainly for long-distance communications, so they can on the basis of complementary advantages to achieve a long-distance data transmission linked together by gateway. This paper presents the hardware architecture and the software implementation process. The experimental results show that this system has advantages of high reliability and low cost, so it can be applied to environmental monitoring and the smart home system

LNG regasification process needs a considerable quantity of thermal energy that is usually obtained by cooling sea water or by burning a fraction of the evaporated natural gas. These systems, though offering low cost and high reliability, are thermodynamically inefficient: they require energy for water pumping or fuel to provide heat and do not exploit the physical exergy related to the initial conditions of LNG to produce mechanical work. The present paper aims to assess the performances of various gas turbine based cycles which use the LNG regasification process as a low temperature heat sink for power cycles. In particular it will focus on the following configurations: • Closed loop gas cycles • Gas-gas combined cycles • Combined gas-organic Rankine cycles Two different sendout pressure (70 and 30 bar, corresponding respectively to the supply of long-distance pipelines or power plants based on heavy-duty gas turbines) are considered. Their performances are calculated and proper effectiveness indexes (e.g. thermal and exergetic efficiency) are introduced to carry out a comprehensive comparison among the systems considered. A simple economical analysis completes the discussion.

Recently discovered pits on the surface of the Moon and Mars are theorized to be remnants of lava tubes, and their interior may be in pristine condition. Current landers and rovers are unable to access these areas of high interest. However, multiple small, low-cost robots that can utilize unconventional mobility through ballistic hopping can work as a team to explore these environments. In this work, we propose strategies for exploring these newly discovered Lunar and Martian pits with the help of a mother-daughter architecture for exploration. In this architecture, a highly capable rover or lander would tactically deploy several spherical robots (SphereX) that would hop into the rugged pit environments without risking the rover or lander. The SphereX robots would operate autonomously and perform science tasks, such as getting inside the pit entrance, obtaining high-resolution images, and generating 3D maps of the environment. The SphereX robot utilizes the rover or lander’s resources, including the power to recharge and a long-distance communication link to Earth. Multiple SphereX robots would be placed along the theorized caves/lava tube to maintain a direct line-of-sight connection link from the rover/lander to the team of robots inside. This direct line-of-sight connection link can be used for multi-hop communication and wireless power transfer to sustain the exploration mission for longer durations and even lay a foundation for future high-risk missions.

Abstract In this paper, we introduce ViPSN-E: a transient-motion-powered IoT sensor node. It carries out motion detection and wireless communication by making good use of the energy harvested from an instantaneous motion. In our design, a piezo-magneto-elastic structure, which is composed of a low-cost piezoelectric cantilever and a pair of magnets, is used to induce a plucking excitation and power generation under a transient and one-way movement. An energy management circuit, which is composed of a self-powered synchronized switch harvesting on inductor (SP-SSHI) interface circuit and a voltage regulator is utilized for efficient energy conversion. Through the sophisticated collaboration between mechatronic design and computer program, the motion information can also be identified and sent out by a wireless communication module. The cyber-electromechanical synergy among mechanical dynamics, power conditioning circuit, and the low-power embedded system is emphasized towards the successful implementation of such a motion-powered IoT device. The prototyped ViPSN-E has done a good job by making good use of the energy associated with each transient plucking motion. With only one plucking excitation, the system can realize motion detection and several rounds of wire-less transmission. The study on ViPSN-E provides valuable guidance towards the self-powered ubiquitous motion-sensing systems.
