IMT-2000 system is the third generation mobile communication system which aims at mobile multimedia services with global roaming. Like 2nd generation system, the IMT-2000 system is also under strong influence of interferences among active subscribers in the multiple access environment. That is, in multiple access environment, signals from one subscriber could interfere with others in the same cell or in the neighboring cells. The interference control in the IMT-2000 systems is much more difficult then the interference control in the 2ndgeneration CDMA cellular systems, since the transmitted power of a subcriber might be different that of others in the IMT-2000 system. In this paper, a parallel interference cancellation with traffic discrimination is proposed which can effectively cancel interferences by grouping the subscribers into several equi-power classes. As a conclusion, simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms the conventional partial PIC scheme in several aspects.

In the standard location strategy such as IS-41 and GSM, Home Location Register(HLR) and Visitor Location Register(VLR) databases are used to manage the location of mobile terminals. The primary goal that location management schemes investigate is to reduce the cost of database access and the traffic for signaling network. When mobile terminals move frequently, one of problems in the standard location management scheme is that HLR database is highly updated and the traffic in signaling network can be occurred significantly due to high message transfer rate between HRL and VLR. As a solution to these problems, this paper proposes the location management scheme using VLR Gateway(VG) to reduce the both traffics of HLR update and signaling network which are resulted from location registration requirements of mobile terminals whenever they cross their registration area boundary. VG is a kind of database that is placed between HLR and VLR. It integrates one or more registration area defined in a system into one group and plays a role on behalf of HLR in a integrated registration scope so that the call delivery and the movement of mobile terminals are possible without HLR access in the scope. In order to evaluate performance of IS-41 and proposed scheme, we simulate two schemes based on wide range of call to mobility ratio. Its experiment result shows that in the proposed scheme total database cost increased slightly whereas HLR and signaling traffic decreased remarkably.

In WATM networks, in order to perform dynamic slot allocation required slots of mobile terminals are estimated based on DP (Dynamic Parameter) reflecting characteristics of traffic. In VBR (Variable Bit Rate) traffic, slot allocation is done at MT considering both time-dependent characteristics and QoS (Quality of Service) requirements. In this paper, DPs-buffer state information and buffer state change-are transmitted through in-band signaling. BS (Base Station) performs dynamic slot allocation considering traffic characteristics of each MT (Mobile Terminal), in other words, buffer state information informs the potentiality of 'buffer full state'to BS if MT buffer is over the specific threshold value and buffer state change notifies change in buffer state of incoming cells to MT. If buffer state information is equal to 'low (more than threshold)' and 'abrupt increase' it generates 'buffer full' state cell transmission delay or cell loss might occur. At this time BS should assign additional slots to MT, and then MT consumes cells in its buffer. In simulation, the proposed scheme shows better performance in cell delay and loss than EPSA (Estimation-Prorated Slot Assignment) in-band scheme.

In a microcell environment having frequent inter-cell movement of a subscriber, the amount of signalling traffic rapidly increases due to the treatment of location update and other necessary actions. As a way to reduce such an overhead, this paper presents an algorithm that dynamically allocates subscribers paging and location areas each of which has a different size and shape, depending on the characteristics of subscriber mobility. Mathematical analysis results show that this algorithm allows reduced area management cost, compared to conventional algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a packet scheduling algorithm that assigns different number of HS-PDSCH(High Speed Primary Downlink Shared Channel) to the service user according to the received signal to interference ratio of CPICH(Common Pilot Channel) and to the traffic characteristics. Assigned channel number is determined by the signal to interference ratio level from CPICH. The highest signal to interference ratio user gets the number of channels based on the signal to interference ratio table and the remained channels are assigned to the other level users. Therefore the proposed scheme can provide the similar maximum service throughput and higher fairness than existing scheduling algorithm. Simulation results show that our algorithm can provide the similar maximum service throughput and higher fairness than MAX C/I algorithm and can also support the higher service throughput than proportional fairness scheme.

IMT-2000 mobile system will provide many application services such as mobile internet, wireless electronics commerce applications using air interface with high data rate. These applications require high data integrity, data confidentiality, user authentication, user identity confidentiality and non-repudiation. In this study, we analyze new security threats and air interface traffic performance for IMT-2000 mobile systems. Signal traffic for network access security services requires 0.2kbps~4.5kbps with the conditions of 246~768bits/massage, 0.2~1.0 basic services/sec and the security services of the rate 0.2~1.0 times compared with basic services.

Recently, solutions to accommodate explosively growing mobile data traffic have attracted intensive attentions since the emergence of high-performance smartphones. Spectrum which can be exploited for mobile communications is very limited. Thus, femto cell is considered as an alternative because it can efficiently offload mobile data traffic from macro cells without using additional spectrum. In this paper, we mathematically analyzed the coverage of femto cell when it is deployed in an area where there exists signals from existing macro base stations. Our numerical results indicate that the coverage of femto cell increases as the total power of femto cell increases or the ratio of power allocated to pilot channel increases. However, it is also shown that the coverage of femto cell is very limited despite its high power when interference signals from macro base stations are strong.

Existing buffer management schemes for shared-memory output queueing switches can be classified into two types: In the first type, some constant amount of memory space is guaranteed to each virtual queue using static queue thresholds. The static threshold method (ST) belongs to this type. On the other hand, the second type of approach tries to maximize the buffer utilization in 머 locating buffer memories. The complete sharing (CS) method is classified into this type. In the case of CS, it is very hard to protect regular traffic from mis-behaving traffic flows while in the case of ST the thresholds can not be adjusted according to varying traffic conditions. In this paper, we propose a new buffer management method called weighted dynamic thresholds (WDT) which can process packet flows based on loss priorities for quality-of-service (QoS) functionalities with fairly high memory utilization factors. We verified the performance of the proposed scheme through computer simulations.

There are random, continuous, and periodic allocation methods in the time slot sequence integrity for the multi-slot call. In the T-S-T switch, there are 2 time switch and the 2*2 space switch. Three time-slot allocation methods are suggested for the simulation. In the simulation, the searching times for time-slots on a multi-slot call is chosen to 32, and the simulation time is chosen to 100,000 seconds. Three kinds of calls are supposed for a multi-slot call : one time-slot call, two time-slot call, and 6 time-slot call. In the simulation, the carried traffic and the blocking probability are calculated on the 3 different traffic cases of 8:1:1, 6:2:2, 4:3:3(one time-slot : two time-slot : 6 time-slot) multi slot calls. It is shown that the blocking probability for the periodic time slot allocation method is best. As a result, the periodic time-slot allocation method is the proper one for the multi-slot ATM switch.

This paper propose to methodology for deciding suitable bit size that minimizes hardware complexity and performance degradation from floating-point design the fixed-point implementation of downlink traffic channel of IEEE 802.16e OFDMA TDD system. One of the major considering issues for implementing fixed-point design is to select Saturation or Quantization properly with the knowledge of signal distribution by pdf or histogram. Also, through trial and error, we should execute exhaustive computer simulation for various bit sizes, hence obtain appropriate bit size while minimizing performance degradation. We carry out computer simulation to decide the optimized bit size of downlink traffic channel under AWGN and ITU-R M.1225 Veh-A channel model.
