A service network in the future ubiquitous environment can consist of a variety of elements, which include different protocols of the network transport. Interwoking different transport protocols can alleviate such problems occurred in accessing network as poverty of facilities, faults, and contention in a path of particular protocol communication. This paper schemes to improve performance of the network constituted of different protocols for the network transport. Interposing an interwork element, like SDR (Software Defined Radio), in the network can raise availability of transport paths, and then improve transport performance of the overall network Simulation analysis justifies such a scheme and this paper presents simulation results.

The technology of Software Defined Radio (SDR) is a possible solution to interwork flexibly between various wireless transport protocols. Ubiquitous network, like u-health service network, includes sensor devices or nodes which do not facilitate all the same transport protocols to access network. As such this may be in such unreachable situations as poverty of all required AP (Access Point)’s, faults or contention in a path of particular protocol communication, etc. This paper presents research results of modeling and simulation to analyze transport performance of multi-protocol ubiquitous network which includes SDR-based interwork nodes and congestion-controlled AP’s. Focusing mainly on dynamics of overall transport performance rather than protocol execution procedures, this paper employs the Zeigler’s DEVS (Discrete Event Systems Specification) methodology and DEVSim++simulation environment to experiment.
