To prevent performance degradation of TCP due to packet losses in the smooth handoff by the route optimization extension of Mobile IP protocol, a buffering of packets at a base station is needed. A buffering of packets at a base station recovers those packets dropped during handoff by forwarding buffered packets at the old base station to the mobile user. But, when the mobile user moves to a congested base station in a new foreign subnetwork, those buffered packets forwarded by the old base station are dropped and TCP transmission performance of a mobile user in the congested base station degrades due to increased congestion by those forwarded burst packets. In this paper, considering the general case that a mobile user moves to a congested base station, we propose a Priority Packet Forwarding to improve TCP performance in mobile networks. In the proposed scheme, without modification to Mobile IP protocol, the old base station marks a buffered packet as a priority packet during handoff. And priority queue at the new congested base station schedules the priority packet firstly. Simulation results show that proposed Priority Packet Forwarding can improve TCP transmission performance more than Implicit Priority Packet Forwarding and RED (Random Early Detection) schemes.

펨토셀은 실내에 위치한 사용자들에게 고품질의 이동통신 서비스를 제공하기 위한 실내용 소출력 이동통신 기지국이다. 펨토셀은 가정 또는 사무실과 같은 실내환경에 설치되어 기 의 이동통신 기지국과 협력함으로써 이동통신망의 용량을 확장하고 실내 사용자들에게 보다 우수한 통선 품질을 제공해 줄 수 있다. 그러나 펨토셀의 통신 영역은 수십에서 수백 제곱 미터로 작아 단말이 접속 기지국을 빈번하게 전환할 수 있으므로 펨토셀 네트워크에서는 이동성 관리 기능의 중요성이 매우 높을 것으로 예상된다. 또한 펨토셀이 기존 매크로셀과 일한 무선 자원을 사용할 경우 펨토셀과 매크로셀 사이의 신호 간섭 이 발생하여 사용자의 통신 품질이 크게 저하될 우려가 있다. 본 고에서는 3GPP LTE-Advanced 기반 펨토셀 네트 크 환경에서 단말의 이동성 관리기법 및 그 절차를 소개한다. 또한 펨토셀로부터의 신호 간섭 에 의해 통신 품질이 크게 저하되는 피해 단말 탐색을 위한 3GPP LTE-Advanced 표준에서 정의하고 있는 핸드오버 절차 기반의 펨토셀과 매크로셀 기지국 사이의 협력 기법을 소개한다.

In the wireless communication systems, the power consumption of a mobile device is very important issue due to its battery limitations. Hence most of the standards for wireless networks including a mobile WiMAX system are supporting their own power saving mode in way that a mobile device is able to reduce its energy usage while in the mode. However, those standards just define the arrangement of special time intervals, called a paging listening interval, during which the device needs to receive the paging-related control messages, and they do not specify how to effectively reduce the power in many different network environments. This means the amount of power spent by the device is very dependent on the implementations of individual device-vendors, and undesirable paging loss may happen according to the channel conditions. To reduce unnecessary power usage and the risk of paging loss, this paper proposes the effective frequency/BS selection algorithm applicable to a mobile device operating in the power saving mode, which serves the device with better BS based on the tracking for channel variation. This algorithm consists of the channel estimation phase during each paging listening interval, the tracking phase for the measured results, the frequency reselection phase based on the tracking activity, and the preferred BS reselection phase. Thus the proposed method can improve the paging performance while the device is moving in the network. Also the simulation result shows that the presented scheme is superior to other candidates in energy efficiency due to the channel-adaptive frequency/BS selection.

We propose a spectrally efficient relaying scheme with multiple antennas for cellular networks which consist of base station (BS), relay station (RSs), and mobile stations (MSs). In general, a BS has more antennas than an RS or an MS. By using multiple antennas, a BS can support another MS with the same frequency resource, where an RS transmits data to a specific MS. In this case, the MS receiving data form an RS also receives the interference form the BS because the BS also uses the same frequency resource at the same time. In this paper, we propose ing and pre-whitening techniques as a pre-coding scheme at the BS for reducing the interference at the MS receiving data from the RS.

In this paper, we propose a resource allocation scheme that guarantees transmission rate for each mobile stations by mitigating interference between a base station-to-mobile station link and a relay station-to-mobile station link. Specifically, we dynamically adjust the boundary between access zone and relay zone using signal to interference plus noise ratio. Moreover, we cluster the mobile stations under sever interference and manage the channel quality of these mobile stations by allocating additional radio resource. Our simulation results show that the proposed scheme can improve the efficiency of radio resources and ensure fairness among mobile stations.

In this paper, a shared band transmission, in which downlink signals from satellite to both earth station and user terminal are transmitted in the same frequency band, is considered. For proper operation of such shared band transmission, self-interference caused by the transmitted signal from its own transmitter should be cancelled and the desired signal from the other transmitter should be obtained. The self-interference is sent by its own transmitter and it can be easily regenerated with the estimated round-trip delay. In addition to this delay, non-linearity effects caused by power amplifiers at the earth station and satellite should be exploited. The proposed interference canceller divided into two parts: one is subtraction of the transmitted signal with delay and non-linearity effects, and the other is adoptive filter to suppressed the residual interference. Through computer simulations, the effectiveness of the proposed system is verified.

A defect of decrease in TCP throughput can be investigated in asymmetric environment of different uplink and downlink bandwidths. Under two-way TCP traffic, the total link utilization is decreased by the successive injection of data packets in buffer. To solve these problems, terminal ACK filtering and packet scheduling mechanisms are introduced in this paper. ACK filtering eliminates the buffered ACK packets and transmits recent ACK packets in the uplink with limited bandwidth. Packet scheduling is the method of preventing 'clustering' and 'ack compression' states which are generated in the two-way TCP traffic. The guarantee of the data traffic in reverse TCP connection and the high throughput in forward TCP connection are investigated by simulation.

본 논문에서는 D2D 단말이 셀룰라 시스템의 상향링크 자원을 재사용하는 환경에서 D2D 단말들의 효용함수 극대화 방안을 제안한다. 기존 셀룰라 단말의 간섭영향을 고려하여 기지국 수신단 총 간섭량을 제한하고, D2D 송신단 전송전력량을 제한한다. D2D 단말들의 효용 극대화를 위해서는 모든 링크간의 채널 정보를 요구하므로, 부분적인 링크 채널 정보만을 필요로 하는 분산적 알고리즘을 제안하도록 한다.
