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

A smart home structure using network (internet, intranet, wireless etc.) is designed and developed to monitor the circumstances and control the appliances in the house when sensors are triggered by some unexpected cases. A good host of low-cost sensors is used to make anti theft alarm, fire alarm, smog alarm etc. And then transmitted these data got from the measuring devices to neutral module. The neutral module is constructed by ARM-S3C6410 hardware and embedded Linux. It can transmit messages to the householders after processed. The householders can visit the web server to make it clear what happened in the house. Moreover, they can control some appliances to make incidences back to normal through the Internet. If the owners are holding mobile phones, the neutral module will transmit text messages to them. In turn, they can also control the appliances by sending some specific instructions. And then the neutral module will give some other messages as feedback. Additionally, visible interphone technology also makes function in this system. A LCD is organized in the neutral module, one person who stays in the house can make a good conversation with others through neutral platform. Finally, a series of experiments are posed to estimate the performance of our solution.

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.

The climate change has brought about unpredictable weather conditions that have resulted in the global food shortage being experienced. This issue can be solved by greenhouses, they play a main role in increasing the crop yield per unit area and represent the suitable environment for off-corps yields. Managing and continuous monitoring the green house environment can be done using a wired sensor network, but the high cost, wiring complexity, fixed sensor locations and the restricted distances are the big problems of this type of a networking. To solve these problems, we implemented a real time embedded system using Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) based on ZigBee technology to control and monitor the environmental of greenhouses. The WSN can be adopted as the best solution to apply in greenhouse because of its good properties, long distances, low-cost, low power consumption, high security and high reliability. The constructed system is implemented based on simple components, ATMEGA328P microcontroller and ZigBee are represented the kernel of sensor node, collect data from various sensors and present them to a coordinating station where data can be stored and processed, then actuators will be operate depending on the processed data. The captured data will be displayed for monitoring in a real time manner. The monitor system was developed using GSM technology. The simulation results show that the system is more efficient in the manpower saving and raising the economic value of products. Furthermore, the developed system is simple, and easily installable.
