802.11과 같은 무선 네트워크에서는 전송오류에 의한 패킷손실이 많이 발생한다. 802.11 MAC 프로토콜에서는 에러 복구를 위해 ARQ방식을 통한 재전송을 통하여 에러를 정정하나 채널 에러 율이 증가하면 재전송 방식의 효율은 급격히 저하된다. 또한 재전송을하는데 있어서 다시 RTS와 CTS를 전송하여 데이터를 보낼 수 있는 채널을 확보해야 하므로 상당한 전송부하가 발생한다. 이에 재전송 없이 효율적인 에러 복구를 위해서는 FEC방식이 필요하다. 그러나 정적인 FEC방식은 연속적으로 변화하는 무선 채널의 전송 오류율에알맞은 정정 코드를 채택하지 못해 과도한 대역폭 낭비로 인하여 효율이 떨어지는 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제를 개선하기 위해서는 채널의 상태에 따라 정정 코드를 동적으로 변경하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문은 FEC방식을 802.11 MAC 프로토콜에 적용할 수 있는 방안에 대해서 기술하고 채널 에러 변화에 따라 능동적으로 정정 코드 양을 조절하여 재 전송하는적응적 FEC 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 적응적 FEC 알고리즘을 802.11 MAC 프로토콜에 적용하여 성능을 측정한 결과 최대 80%정도 성능이 향상된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper proposed and implemented the adaptive transmission middleware for video streaming, which is able to support the adaptive transmission of video data to the fluctuating changes of network environment in the packet-based network and the properties of transmitted video data. The adaptive transmission middleware is made up SR-RTP-based transfer module and TFRC(TCP Friendly Rate Control)-based transfer-rate control module. The SR-RTP-based transfer module supports RTP-based real-time transfer of video data and packet retransmission scheme retransmitting the high-priority packets selectively in the damaged video data to reduce the error induced by the packet loss. Sharing the transmission bandwidth of network with the TCP-based data transfer, the TFRC-based transfer-rate control module controls the transfer rate of video data according to the most allowable transmission bandwidth in the network, so that the transfer rate is controlled adaptively to the fluctuating changes of transmission bandwidth. This paper, for the experiment, applied the adaptive transmission middleware to video streaming in the external Internet environment, and analyzed the effective frame transfer rate and the degree of the streaming jitter to evaluate the performance of packet-loss recovery and adaptive transfer rate control. In the external Internet environment where the packet-loss rate is high a bit, the relatively high streaming performance was showed compared with the case that didn't apply the adaptive transmission middleware.

This paper proposes a cross-layer design combining adaptive modulation and coding (AMC) with truncated hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) for wireless multicast transmission, in order to increase the spectral efficiency while meeting the target quality-of-service (QoS). In the design, we provide the selection criterion of AMC so as to satisfy the target packet error rate (PER) of all users when the multicast data is received through the common channel and the number of retransmission is limited by the delay constraint of the service. The analytically derived results show that the cross-layer design using HARQ provides a better spectral efficiency than the AMC without HARQ by allowing retransmission and code combining. It is also observed that the design for multicast outperforms that for unicast in the mid to high signal-to-noise ratio region.

In this paper, we propose an effective network-adaptive ARQ based error control scheme to provide video streaming services through IP networks where packet error usually occurs. If time delay and feedback channel are allowed, client can request server to retransmit lost packets through IP networks. However, if retransmission is unconditionally requested without considering network condition and number of simultaneous feedback messages, retransmitted packets may not arrive in a timely manner so that decoding may not occur. In the proposed ARQ, a client conditionally requests retransmission based on assumed network condition, and it further determines valid retransmission time so that effective ARQ can be applied. In order to verify the performance of the proposed adaptive ARQ based error control, NIST-Net is used to emulate packet-loss network environment. It is shown by simulations that the proposed scheme provides noticeable error resilience with significantly reduced traffics required for ARQ.

Cooperative diversity is a promising technique for range extension and diversity increase without the use of multiple transmit antennas at the user equipment. In this paper, we propose a cooperative hybrid automatic repeat request relay method with adaptive retransmission to increase the throughput when the SNR of a source user is low. In the proposed method, the source user transmits the first segment of a codeword to relay users and a base station. If the base station fails to recover the information from the received packet, it requests the source or some relay users to retransmit the packet previously sent. In addition, the retransmission type of a selected user is chosen from repetition or incremental redundancy according to the quality of systematic bits in a turbo codeword. Simulation results show that the proposed method improves the throughput compared to conventional methods, and the improvement is significant when the source user has a low SNR.

본 논문에서는 Ad hoc 망에서 오류 발생률에 적응적인 LLC와 MAC 프로토콜은 설계하였다. 이 프로토콜은 무선 링크상에서 수신자의 피드백 정보에 의존한다. LLC 계층에서는 피드백 정보에 따라 적합한 FEC를 선택하여 부호화하고 MAC 계층에서는 이를 뒷받침하기 위해 오류 발생 패킷에 대한 새로운 재전송 메커니즘을 사용한다. 결과적으로 시간에 따라 변화하는 채널 환경에 적응하여 성공적으로 패킷을 전송함으로써 패킷 전달 지연시간을 단축시키고 제한된 채널의 대역폭을 효과적으로 사용한다.

The 6LoWPAN(IPv6 Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network) performs IPv6 header compression, TCP/UDP/IGMP header compression, packet fragmentation and re-assemble to transmit IPv6 packet over IEEE 802,15.4 MAC/PHY. However, from the point of view of security. It has the existing security threats issued by IP packet fragmenting and reassembling, and new security threats issued by 6LoWPAN packet fragmenting and reassembling would be introduced additionally. If fragmented packets are retransmitted by replay attacks frequently, sensor nodes will be confronted with the communication disruption. This paper analysis security threats introduced by 6LoWPAN fragmenting and reassembling, and proposes a re-transmission mechanism that could minimize re-transmission to be issued by replay attacks. Re-transmission procedure and fragmented packet structure based on the 6LoWPAN standard(RFC4944) are designed. We estimate also re-transmission delay of the proposed mechanism. The mechanism utilizes timestamp, nonce, and checksum to protect replay attacks. It could minimize reassemble buffer overflow, waste of computing resource, node rebooting etc., by removing packet fragmentation and reassemble unnecessary.

We need to have an adaptive TCP protocol that can be tolerable on wireless network environement. TCP Westwood for use in the environe-ment that have a very high loss rate like a sattelite was proposed by modifying the existing bulk retransmission protocol. Bulk retransmission mechanism shows a highly enhanced performance on networks that have a very high loss rate but are prone to bursty loss networks. Also, it can exprience less performance on low late transmission environement. This paper proposes Adaptive Bulk Retransmission Mechanism that adjusts the number of bulk retransmitted packets based on the network conditions. The proposed mechanism was evaluated by using NS-2.
