The number of stations existing in the same wireless channel is increasing due to the spread of the wireless LAN devices. CSMA/CA, a conventional wireless LAN protocol, uses a random backoff method. In the random backoff scheme, collision between stations is frequent in a dense region where the number of stations existing in the same channel is several tens or more, and the performance of the performance degradation of such a protocol, the IEEE 802.11ah standard proposed a Restricted Access Window(RAW) wireless access method. RAW improves performance by limiting the number of concurrent access stations by dividing the stations into several groups. In this paper, we propose a method to improve the performance of channel connection by using new group creation, group removal and group relocation algorithm according to traffic change by improving existing RAW method.

Recently, the device-to-device (D2D) communication has been conceived as the key technology for the next-generation mobile communication systems. The neighbor discovery in which the nearby users are found, is essential for the proper operation of the D2D communication. In this paper, we propose new neighbor discovery scheme based on deep learning technology which has gained a lot of attention recently. In the proposed scheme, the neighboring users can be found using the uplink pilot transmission of users only, unlike conventional neighbor discovery schemes in which direct pilot communication among users is required, such that the signaling overhead can be greatly reduced in our proposed scheme. Moreover, the neighbors with different proximity can also be classified accordingly which enables more accurate neighbor discovery compared to the conventional schemes. The performance of our proposed scheme is verified through the tensorflow-based computer simulations.

와이브로(WiBro), 3G 무선인터넷(HSDPA), 3G LTE 등과 같은 와이어리스 브로드밴드(Wireless Broand) 기술이 점차 성숙됨에 따라 이들 망을 활용한 다양한 무선인터넷 서비스를 제공하려는 사업자들이 증가하고 있다. 기존의 WLAN, 2G/3G 회선망에서의 제한된 이동성 및 네트워크 전송 속도를 개선한 와이어리스 브로드밴드 서비스 시장은 국내에서도 2006년부터 WiBro 및 HSDPA가 사용됨에 따라 사업자간의 경쟁도 본격화되고 있다. 이러한 환경 속에서 사업자들은 신속하고 편리한 서비스 개통과 스마트폰, USB모뎀, 노트북, UMPC, PMP등 다양한 단말들의 펌웨어 업그레이드, A/S 처리 방안에 대해 고심을 하고 있으며, 이들 문제점은 막대한 비용과 고객 민원을 야기시키는 요인이기도 하다. 따라서 경제적인 관리비용으로 동적인 서비스/펌웨어 업그레이드 및 A/S에 대한 고객 만족도를 높이기 위한 단말 원격 관리 필요성이 절실히 요구된다. WiBro 단말의 안전하고 효율적으로 관리하기 위해서는 단말과 기지국사이의 무선구간에 대한 보안(security)을 강화시켜 줄 수 있으면서 이동성(mobility)을 고려한 OMA DM프로토콜을 이용하는 것이 적합하다. 또한, WiBro에서 가입자 인증을 채택하고 있는 UICC의 관리를 위해서 3GPP에서 정의하는 SMS/MMS기반의 또는 BIP(Bear Independent Protocol)기반의 OTA기술을 병행하여 사용하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 Wi-MAX단말 관리를 위한 OTA Provisioning 규격으로 OMA DM과 TR069이 WiMAX 단말을 위하여 어떻게 적용하도록 규정하고 있는지를 살펴본다. 특히, WiBro 가입자 인증뿐만 아니라 폰북, DRM, 금융서비스 등 다양한 부가 서비스를 위하여 사용되는 UICC의 원격관리를 위한 관리 요소들을 정의, 설계하고 이를 바탕으로 구현된 KTUICC OTA Provisioning시스템을 소개한다.

본 논문은 무선 인지 네트워크에서 에너지 하베스팅을 하는 다수의 단말이 하나의 중계기를 사용하여 양방향 통신을 하는 시스템을 다룬다. 한 신호 전송 프레임은 에너지 하베스팅 단계와 신호 전송 단계로 이루어 진다. 에너지 하베스팅 단계에서 각 단말은 일차 사용자의 송신기에서 보내는 무선 에너지 신호를 이용하여 신호 전송에 필요한 에너지를 저장한다. 신호 전송 단계에서 중계기는 처리량이 가장 높은 하나의 유저 쌍을 선택하며, 선택된 유저는 중계기를 통하여 세 단계를 거쳐 정보를 교환한다. 이 때 각 단말에서의 불능 확률을 1) 중계기에서의 전송 전력이 변화할 때, 2) 단말 수가 변화할 때로 나누어 시뮬레이션 하고, 결과를 분석한다.

The group management system with Wireless Sensor Network and android application is proposed in this paper. The proposed system was composed of personal devices with sensor nodes of WSN, manager device of android platform, and the web server. The sensor node used by each group member send a data packet to the manager device every 2 seconds. The leader device displays and transmits entire information to the web server. The web server represents these information through web page. Therefore, guardians can assure their group member's safety and security on the web page. The RSSI value of each sensor node converted by computed log-normal path loss model into distance value and displays on the manager device and the web page.

IP paging strategy, one of the solutions for derived problems in IP mobility support protocol, reduces the messages and the overheads over the network, since there is not registration procedure when a mobile terminal moves into a new router within the same paging area. However, the fact that the mobile terminals with the previous strategy consume electrical power continuously for paging signal reception obstructs the application of IP paging strategy to the IP-based wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we propose a discontinuous paging reception strategy based on the characteristics of the wireless sensor networks and their mobile terminals. As a result of the mathematical analysis, the proposed strategy significantly reduces the terminals' power consumption. In addition, by setting the relating parameters as appropriate values, the proposed strategy can be switched to the continuous reception strategy, or can be adjusted to limit the terminals' power consumption or paging delay.

As Internet of things with a large number of nodes emerges, wireless-power communication networks (WPCN) based on a random access protocol needs to be investigated. In the random access-based WPCN, a terminal accessing later in given random access (RA) slots can harvest more energy before transmission and thus can transmit data with higher power and achieve higher throughput if the access is successful. On the basis of this property, the proposed random access control protocol gives the terminals priority and distinguishes the RA slots according to the priority level, so that a near terminal with access point allows to access preferentially other than a remote terminal. This operation decreases the throughput of near terminal and increases the throughput of remote terminal, and then, the doubly near-far problem in WPCN is resolved and the user fairness is improved. Results show that the proposed random access control improves both channel throughput and user fairness according to the priority level.

In an infrastructure-based wireless network, an access point is used for all communications among mobile devices. However, when a mobile device moves into a dead Bone, a connectivity disruption between the mobile device and the access point occurs. Such connectivity disruption consequently leads to another connectivity disruption between the mobile device moving toward the dead zone and other wireless-enabled devices located within the area of the infrastructure-based wireless network. To cope with the connectivity disruption in the infrastructure-based wireless network the ad hoc network that dynamically forms a network without any preexisting communication infrastructure needs to be set up to provide seamless connections among mobile devices. In this paper, we propose the DNSQ-MAC (Dynamic Network State aware QoS-Medium Access Control) technique that meets the deadlines of MAC frames forwarded over hop-by-hop multipaths and guarantees the QoS performance of an ad hoc-based wireless network. Mobile devices incorporating the DNSQ-MAC technique are capable of adjusting to the new dynamic network status in order to enhance the QoS performance in the ad hoc-based wireless network. A case study which exploits the Qualnet simulator shows that the proposed DNSQ-MAC technique can guarantee the deadlines of MAC frames forwarded over hop-by-hop multipaths and enhance the QoS performance of various routing protocols and packet schedulers running on the network layer above the MAC layer.

Restricted Access Window (RAW) has been designed to improve power saving efficiency by reducing collisions of contending stations in the IEEE 802.11ah Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). We conduct simulations in order to observe the stations' operations influencing the lengths of the Restricted Access Window (RAW). From the observation, we consider how to adjust the stations' operations for proper RAW managements.
