Abstract

A wireless bridge is essential to transmit control and managing information to sensors or instruments from a central integrated ship area network station. In this paper, a WiMedia Distributed-MAC(D-MAC) protocol is adopted for development of a seamless N-Screen wireless service in Indoor and Ship Area Networks. Furthermore, to provide the OSMU(One Source Multi Use) N-screen service through P2P streaming in the seamless D-MAC protocol, a Dynamic Threshold-based Multicast(DTM) technology is proposed and analyzed. For this technology, a new Hard/Soft Vertical Region(HVR-SVR) based time slot allocation and a multicast resource reservation scheme are combined. From simulation results, proposed DTM scheme expands the number of time slots available for unicast and multicast realtime N-Screen reservations with various service time interval requests. Furthermore, it enhances performances in vewpoints of realtime N-Screen data reservation conflict and throughput.

센서장비에 장착되는 무선통신 모듈은 선내 통합유무선 네트워크와의 원활한 연결을 위하여 무선 게이트웨이 기능을 수행하는 Bridge(브릿지)를 통한 데이터 전송방식이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 선박 및 실내 끊김없는 N-스크린 서비스를 위한 무선 통신 MAC 구조로서, WiMedia Distributed-MAC(D-MAC) 프로토콜을 적용하고, 끊김없는 D-MAC 프로토콜에서 P2P(Point to point) 스트리밍이 가능한 OSMU(One Source Multi Use) N-스크린 서비스를 제공하기 위해, 동적 Threshold 기반 멀티캐스트 기술을 제안하고 성능을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 새로운 Hard/Soft Vertical Region(HVR-SVR) 기반 타임 슬롯 할당 기술과 Multicast 자원 예약기술을 결합하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 동적 Threshold 기반 멀티캐스트 기술은 다양한 서비스 시간 간격 요구를 갖는 실시간 N-스크린 데이터 전송에 있어, 멀티캐스트 및 유니캐스트 전송 DRP 예약 구간을 확장하고 수율을 향상시키는 효과를 나타내었다.
