Provided is an apparatus and method for tracking a position of a fixed node. The position tracking apparatus of the fixed node may include: an interface to extract, from a database in response to the occurrence of an event about tracking the position of the fixed node, packet data corresponding to a mobile node associated with the event; and a processor to analyze a received signal strength of the packet data and a position of the mobile node from the packet data, and to track the position of the fixed node using the analysis result.

Apparatus and method for tracking position of fixed node

A data communication system is provided. The data communication system includes a main processor, and at least one sub-processor or at least one peripheral device connected with the main processor according to a serial peripheral interface (SPI) method and performing an operation corresponding to a command transferred from the main processor. The connection according to the SPI method is made by one or more bus lines including a master in slave out (MISO) line and master out slave in (MOSI) line, a slave select (SS) line, an interrupt line, and a clock transfer line.

A method for effectively using power resource in a wireless mesh network is disclosed to select and change a level of a power saving mode according to terminal and network situations to increase the duration of the network's existence as well as improve the power consumption of each mesh terminal. After active mesh terminals that are to perform a data relay function and super-saving mesh terminals that are not to perform the data relay function are selected in consideration of a network topology at certain periods, the level of a power saving mode of the mesh terminals selected as the super-saving mesh terminals is higher than that of the mesh terminals selected as the active mesh terminals. And then, a routing path in a tree form is formed along the mesh terminals selected as the active mesh terminals to transmit data.
