In this paper, the new user mobility model which can be utilized to register user's location for interworking with heterogeneous overlay convergent networks under the time-varying radio propagation environment has been proposed. Thus the user mobility model is considered in order to evaluate the behaviors of users in the overlay convergent networks. This Mobile IP user mobility model will be very useful to model the user mobility behaviors and can be used to estimate the signaling traffic and frequency spectrum demands for massive data transfer for the heterogeneous overlay convergent networks.

인지무선네트워크 (Cognitive Radio Networks) 환경에서 스펙트럼의 원소유주인 1차사용자가 전송을 개시하는 경우, 같은 채널을 사용하는 2차사용자의 TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) 는 전송 불능 상태가 되어 심각한 성능저하가 발생한다. 이러한 성능저하는 1차사용자의 등장으로 인해 채널이 사용 불가능 해지는 상태를 패킷 손실로 판단하여 재전송 타임아웃이 발생하기 때문에 발생된다. 우리는 이 문제를 링크 또는 물리 계층 (하위계층) 과 TCP간의 크로스레이어링을 통하여 해결하고자 한다. 하위 계층은 1차사용자의 전송이 감지되면, 이를 TCP에게 시그널링하고, TCP는 이를 통해 재전송 타이머와 혼잡 윈도우를 고정시키고, 패킷 전송을 중단하도록 한다. 또, 하위계층이 가용 채널을 감지하게 되면, 재차 TCP에게 시그널링을 함으로써, 전송이 신속하게 재개되도록 한다. 제안하는 방법은 실제 USRP(Universal Software Radio Peripheral)에 구현하여 성능의 향상을 검증한다.

An efficient stochastic channel selection algorithm for cognitive radio networks is proposed and analyzed in this paper. With the new algorithm utilizing quality of channels, the stationary level of the channels in idle state and history performance, we can find the best channel for secondary users to transmit data. Moreover, this method not only restricts channel switching of secondary users but also adapts to random resource environment of cognitive radio network. The advantages of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated clearly through computer simulation.

Spectrum sensing and spectrum decision are the main functions that cognitive radios (CRs) have to perform in order to get the best available spectrum band for the establishment of a wireless communication. These problems are worsened in the presence of users with different demands and spectrum channels with different properties in a heterogeneous network. The primary objective in this work is to design and simulate a new spectrum decision algorithm for heterogeneous cognitive radio system. To this end, first, we consider all cognitive users are separated into different traffic classes according to their Quality of Service (QoS). The cognitive users within one traffic class perform spectrum sensing in centralized group-based cooperative spectrum sensing system and the users of different traffic classes share the sensing results. Second, we propose a novel use of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to optimally select available bands according to user requirements and detected spectrum channel characteristics (SCC). In this paper, utility function is used as spectrum decision algorithm. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method shows can effectively select the best available spectrum channels with a low complexity.

Wireless devices can communicate between each other without existing infrastructure in mobile Ad-hod network. Ad hoc networks can be used under difficult conditions, where it is difficult to construct infrastructures, such as shadowing areas, disaster areas, war area, and so on. In order to support to considerable and various wireless services, more spectrum resources are needed. However, efficient utilization of the frequency resource is difficult because of spectrum scarcity and the conventional frequency regulation. Ad-hoc networks employing cognitive radio (CR) system that guarantee high spectrum utilization provide effective way to increase the network capacity. In this paper, we simulate and compare the performance of conventional single and cooperative spectrum sensing with CR system using ad-hoc networks in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh channel model. And we demonstrate performance improvement by analyzing the system performance.

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) where deployed sensors are not stationary, the most important demand of is to design a cost effective and reliable network. This paper proposes an energy aware network construction and routing scheme, which is based on the hierarchical approach to distribute the task in some sensors in order to prolong the network lifetime. It aims to make even the energy consumption on constitute nodes. With the node hierarchy, the sink initiates the construction by electing gateway nodes in the network and the elected gateway nodes participate to form logical clusters by electing a cluster head in each cluster. Then, the cluster heads aggregate data from the sensing sensors and transmit the data to the sink through the gateway. Our simulation result illustrates that the proposed scheme provides a basement to reduce the source of energy dissipation in network construction, and as well as in data routing.

AP 접속을 통한 인터넷 사용시에 인가되지 않은 AP의 경우 모바일 단말로부터 무선랜 연결을 유도하여 피해자가 주고 받는 패킷 정보를 도청한다. 특히 피해자가 무선랜 자동 연결 설정을 활성화한 경우 의도하지 않게 공격에 노출 될 수 있다. 따라서 이를 보안하기 위해 연결할 AP의 내부 네트워크 정보를 비교하여 정상적인 AP 인지 구별할 수 있는 방법을 제안하고자 한다.

In cognitive radio ad-hoc networks, common control channel overload and packet collisions are occured due to indiscriminate broadcasting of control packets. So that the path reliability is reduced and control channel is easily saturated. In this paper, we propose a new routing algorithm considering the probability of appearance of primary user and channel status of neighbor nodes. When the source node needs to transmit a data packet to the destination, it performs route discovery process by exchanging control messages using a control channel in ADOV CR Ad-hoc networks. If any intermediate node doesn't have common data channel with previous node to transmit data, it doesn't rebroadcast control packet. And if it has common data channels with previous node, each node determines channel contribution factor with the number of common channels. Based on the channel contribution factor, each node performs different back-off broadcasting. In addition, each node controls control packet flooding by applying to proposed advanced mode using such as number of available channels and channel stability. With the proposed method, the number of control packets to find the data transmission path and the probability of collision among control packets can be decreased. While the path reliability can be increased. Through simulation, we show that our proposed algorithm reduces packet collisions in comparison with the traditional algorithm.

Cognitive radio has been recently proposed to dynamically access unused-spectrum. The CR users can share the same frequency band with the primary user without interference to each other. Usually each CR user needs to determine spectrum availability by itself depending only on its local observations. But uncertainty communication environment effects can be mitigated so that the detection probability is improved in a heavily shadowed environment. Soft detection is a primary user detection method of cooperative cognitive radio networks. In our research, we will improve system detection probability by using optimal cooperative node selection algorithm. New algorithm can find optimal number of cooperative sensing nodes for cooperative soft detection by using maximum ratio combining (MRC) method. Through analysis, proposed cooperative node selection algorithm can select optimal node for cooperative sensing according to the system requirement and improve the system detection probability.
