무선 BAN은 인체를 중심으로 3m 이내에서 이루어지는 통신을 위한 기술이다. 무선 BAN은 인체 내 외부에서 의료용 서비스를 위하여 여러 개의 채널로 구성된 MICS(Medical Implanted Communication Service) 주파수 대역을 사용한다. MICS는 다중 채널 환경에서 LBT(Listen Before Talk)와 AFA(Adaptive Frequency Agile)을 사용하여 장치간의 간섭을 최소화한다. 경쟁기반의 LBT와 AFA는 데이터 전송의 안정성을 보장하지 못할 뿐만 아니라 채널 홉핑(Hopping)으로 인한 전력 소비를 야기한다. 본 논문에서는 의료용 데이터의 주기적인 특성과 전송 안정성을 고려하여 예약 기법의 채널 액세스 관리 기법을 제안한다. 여러 채널 가운데 하나의 채널을 제어 채널로 설정하고 나머지는 데이터 전송을 위한 채널로 설정한다. 코디네이터는 제어 채널에서 beacon을 전송하여 디바이스에게 데이터 채널을 할당한다. 예약방식을 통하여 채널 할당의 안정성을 확보할 뿐만 아니라 디바이스의 요구 사항에 따라 채널을 유동적으로 결합함으로써 채널의 효율성을 개선한다. 또한 제어 채널 관리 방안을 통하여 LBT 장치와 상호 운용성을 확보하고, 시뮬레이션을 통하여 예약방식의 채널 관리 방안의 효율성을 검증한다.

The WBAN technology means a short distance wireless network which provides each device's interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body located within 3 meters. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. It is necessary to develop the WBAN core technology that sensor node device, WBAN middleware and WBAN application service for WBAN environment. In this paper we designed the medical message structure and implemented medical application for purpose of vital information reliability. The message structure was proposed for WBAN environment and application can be check biometric information from BN on smart device through WBAN gateway.

The WBAN(Wireless Body Area Network) technology is a short distance wireless network which provides each device's interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body located within 3 meters. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. The The WBAN servides consists of both medical and non-medical applications. The medical application service uses the sensor that transfer the periodic traffic and have different data rates. It uses GTS method to guarantee QoS. In this paper, a new method is proposed, which are suitable design for MAC Protocol. Firstly, MAC frame structure and a primitive based on the WBAN are proposed. Secondly, we proposed the GTS algorithm improved the channel utilization based on the WFQ(Weighted Fair Queuing). The proposed scheduling method is improved channel utilization compared with i-Game(Round Robin scheduling method).

The WBAN technology means a short distance wireless network which provides each device interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. Wireless body area network is usually configured in energy efficient using sensor and zigbee device due to the power limitation and the characteristics of human body. Wireless sensor network consist of sensor field and sink node. Sensor field are composed a lot of sensor node and sink node collect sensing data. Wireless sensor network has capacity of the self constitution by protocol where placed in large area without fixed position. In this paper, we proposed the efficient addressing scheme for improving the performance of routing algorithm by using ZigBee in WBAN environment. A distributed address allocation scheme used an existing algorithm that has wasted in address space. Therefore proposing x, y and z coordinate axes from divided address space of 16 bit to solve this problems. Each node was reduced not only bitwise but also multi hop using the coordinate axes while routing than Cskip algorithm. I compared the performance between the standard and the proposed mechanism through the numerical analysis. Simulation verified performance about decrease averaging multi hop count that compare proposing algorithm and another. The numerical analysis results show that proposed algorithm reduced the multi hop better than ZigBee distributed address assignment

The doorlock using buttons has been widely used since it does not exploit the physical key and has much functions though it is cheap. However, the doorlock has problems where it is easy to forget the secret number since the user has to remember the number and difficult to keep secure when the one secret number has been used for a long time. In this paper, we propose the doorlock system using the near field communication. The proposed system controls the open and close of the doorlock using user data acquired by the near field communication tag, The implemented doorlock system has the benefit to control the doorlock without a secret number.

Recently, many researches have been conducted on the aviation industry to replace the wire harness cable between the avionics of the aircraft with the wireless network. In this paper, we present an Event-Based Simulator for Wireless Avionics Intra-Communications (ES-WAIC) that can verify core technologies of wireless networks and efficiently integrate different layers of the network. ES-WAIC is developed to enhance the readability between the real time control application developers of the higher layer and the network layer developers. Specifically, the practical implement relies on an event-based programming concept to increase portability and compatibility that can be applied to the realistic low-power wireless embedded networks. ES-WAIC implements the overall system layers including the wireless channel modeling of the 4.4GHz band, the physical layer, the medium access control, the network, and the application layer of wireless avionics intra-communications.

Ubiquitous healthcare is a recent technology and a new methodology of medical diagnosis and medical care. However, in order for u-Healthcare service to become a general technology, there are some technological barriers(mobility, minimization, battery consumption etc) to overcome. In this paper, we developed a spectrum analysis system for smart phones. The results showed that compared to other solutions, our's were not only small in size but also almost the same in performance(reproducibility comparison experiments, Spectrum, Calibration Curve and Prediction). Therefore, the proposed solution is expected to be widely used in u-Health area.
