This research deals with meanings and issues of 'broadcasting area' in which trans-regional broadcasting media such as satellite broadcasting and webcasting provoked. The issues around broadcasting area have raised the examination of fundamental broadcasting philosophy in Korea, i.e. establishment of broadcasting area intends to foster new media development? or protect local culture and local journalism? After assessing current criticisms around the broadcasting area, this study particularly addresses re-transmission outside the broadcasting area, satellite broadcaster's re-transmission of terrestrial channels, and widening of broadcasting area. This research argues that broadcasting area has lost its raison-etre due to the advent of new communication technology, even though it was maintained to protect regional broadcasting stations. Therefore it argues that now is the right time to change the broadcasting area in the digital media era. This approach could strengthen the competitiveness of regional broadcasting stations and solve the rows surrounding broadcasting areas.

Cooperative networks transmit signals form the source node to the destination node via several relay node where the combining and demodulation of relay aided signals provide the benefit of performance enhancement and data rate increment. In general, a repetitive manner transmission scheme in which the received signal from the source node is amplified/re-generated and forward to the destination node is widely used. In this paper, we analyzed the performance of cooperative networks using the mixed transmission scheme. The conventional modulation scheme is used in the source-relay links, and space-time code is applied in the relay-destination links. To reduce the complexity of the overall system, we adopt differential modulation which bypasses channel state information. We analyze bit error rate (BER) of the proposed system by considering the number of relay nodes, and the performances depending on the strength of transmission signal in the source-relays and rely-destination links are compared. In addition, we also discuss the system performance with the signal strength and the number of relay nodes simultaneously.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of the cooperative relay communication system which uses orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) with hierarchical subcarrier modulation. In the cooperative relay communication system, data transmission is accomplished in two time slots. In the first time slot, the source broadcasts the signal to the relay and to the destination. The relay demodulates the received signal, remodulates and forwards it to the destination in the second time slot. The source uses hierarchical modulation for subcarriers to deal with the signal-to-noise power ratio (SNR) difference in the source-relay and source-destination links. The bit error rate (BER) of the relay transmission system with hierarchical modulation depends on the hierarchical modulation parameter. First, we derive the relationship between BER and the parameter, and find the optimal parameter giving the minimum BER through computer simulations. Then, we analyze the performance of the proposed cooperative relay communication system according to the relay location. From this results, we find optimal relay location to maximize the BER performance.

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) can be expected to provide improved network performance because it transmits data through multiple paths. However, Bufferbloat, which unexpectedly occurs in the transmission path, degrades not only the performance of the corresponding path but also the performance of other paths, so that the performance is worse than that of a single TCP. In this paper, we propose the transmission status monitoring method at the sender's MPTCP level and also HoL packets retransmission algorithm in order to solve the Bufferbloat problem. The proposed algorithm enables Bufferbloat detection by the sender side independently, and it can resolve the HoL blocking problem by identifying the HoL packet in the proposed transmission status monitoring buffer and retransmitting it to the normal path. Simulation results based on NS-3 show that the proposed algorithm achieves the improved throughput performance up to 22.8% compared to the existing MPTCP, and the average number of queued packets in the sender and receiver's buffers is decreased to 44.3% and 9.2%, respectively.

In this paper, we study the secrecy outage probability when using cooperative diversity and jammer in a relay system based on decode-and-forward. MRC method is used in receiver and eavesdroppers to obtain cooperative diversity. To use the MRC technique, direct links between the sender and receiver, and between the sender and the eavesdropper are used, respectively. Jammers are used to generate intentional noise siganls to increase security capacity. Jammers generate intentional noise, degrading the channel quality of the eavesdropper and helping physical layer security be realized. The secrecy outage probability is used to evaluate security performance. Assume that the system is under the Rayleigh fading channel.

Since error compensation schemes guaranteeing high reliability are required in wireless communication systems for the transmission of the large amount of data, as an efficient error compensation scheme the turbo HARQ scheme combining automatic repeat request and turbo coding has been studied in many places in the literature. In the case of conventional turbo HARQ schemes, the transmitter recognizing NAK signals repetitively sends the whole unit packet to the receiver although the received packet can be partially correctable. Through two successive processes, selection of uncorrectable error data and retransmission of only the relevant parts of the information data, transmission efficiency can be improved. In this paper, we present an error data selection criterion for retransmission using the sign transitions of A Posteriori values and propose a tubo HARQ scheme based on the partial retransmission technique. Through a computer simulation, we show and analyze the performance of the proposed scheme with transmission efficiency.

As broadcasting is the process that a node sends a packet to all nodes in the network. it is basic process used for discovering of a routes to a node and disseminating of control information message in Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET). In this paper, we propose dynamically adjusted probabilistic mechanism based on distance ratio and node density for broadcasting in MANETs. The distance ratio can be calculated as the ratio of the radio strength length to the distance from sender of a node, and node density can be get from 1-hop nodes of neighbours. A mobile node receiving broadcast packets determines the probability of rebroadcasting considering distance ratio and node density of itself. Rebroadcast probability will be set as low value to a node which is located in nearby area of sender and has high 1-hop node density, So it reduces packets transmission caused by the early die-out of rebroadcast packets. Compared with the simple flooding and fixed probabilistic flooding by simulation, our approach shows better performances results. Proposed algorithm can reduce the rebroadcast packet delivery more than 30% without scanting reachability, where as it shows up to 96% reachability compared with flooding.

The data link layer of the PCI Express must have the transmitting buffer that contains the packets to transmit next time. Also it must have the retry buffer that contains the packets which were already transmitted but have not been acknowledged by the corresponding target device. In the separated buffer architecture, the data link layer can not transmit the packets in the transmitting buffer if the reiry buffer space is not enough. In this paper, we propose an efficient buffer architecture which merges the transmitting buffer and the retry buffer to a single buffer. Since the proposed buffer can dynamically assign the size of the transmitting buffer and the retry buffer, it can improve the buffer usage efficiency and the data transfer efficiency. The simulation result shows that the proposed buffer has the higher data transfer efficiency than the separated buffer architecture about 39% when the total buffer size is 8K byte.

In this paper, a SIT(Source Independent Tree) method for ray tracing is proposed to enhance the efficiency of tree construction with reuse of sub tree in urban environment, As the SIT method is applied, the decrease of the number of nodes for picocell and microcell simulations is 100 times. And 88~98 % of the total nodes are reused with change of location of signal source from an analysis of node reuse efficiency. Therefore the proposed SIT method is useful in performance enhancement of ray tracing, especially, for multiple antenna simulation like as MIMO system and cell planning.

지상파 디지털멀티미디어방송(T-DMB)을 이용하여 국지적인 재난경보 방송을 실시하고 있지만 산간오지 등과 같은 전파 음영 지역에는 시설 투자의 한계로 서비스가 제한되고 있는 실정이다. 무선 마을 방송 시스템은 ISM 밴드 주파수를 사용하고 있으며 마을 방송용으로 주파수를 제한하여 간섭영향이 상대적으로 적은 장점을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 T-DMB 재난 방송을 기존 무선 마을 방송 시스템의 장점을 이용하여 산간오지의 댁내까지 방송 가능한 시스템을 제안하였다. 재난 발생시 T-DMB 특수 수신기의 재난 방송 출력 신호를 무선 마을 방송 송신기와 복수의 댁내 무선 수신기를 통하여 방송 가능한 구조이며 T-DMB 수신기와 무선 방송 송신기간에는 접점 인터페이스를 통하여 정확한 시퀀스 제어가 필요하다. 무선 마을 방송 시스템은 UHF 대역의 ISM 밴드 무선 주파수를 이용하여 오지산간 지역의 부락에 적합한 특성을 갖고 있다. 장애물로 인한 장거리 전송의 한계는 무선 중계기를 이용하여 커버리지를 확장 가능하다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 T-DMB 재난 방송을 재송신하는 수단으로 ISM 밴드와 연동할 경우 방송 음영지역 해소 및 재난 방송 수신율이 개선되어 국지적 재난에 대한 대국민 인명과 재산보호에 기여할 것으로 판단된다.
