There are tendency that wireless sensor network is one of the important techniques for the future IT industry and thereby application areas in it are getting growing. Researches based on the hierarchical network topology are evaluated in good at energy efficiency in related protocols for wireless sensor network. LEACH is the best well known routing protocol for the hierarchical topology. However, there are problems in the range of message broadcasting, which should be expand into the overall network coverage, in LEACH related protocols. This dissertation proposes a new routing protocol to solve the co-shared problems in the previous protocols. The basic idea of our scheme is using the table for nodes connectivity and node energy information. The results show that the proposed protocol could support the load balancing by distributing the clusters with a reasonable number of member nodes and thereby the network life time would be extended in about 1.8 times longer than LEACH.

For local advertising based on D2D communications, sources want advertisement messages to be diffused to unspecified users as many as possible. It is one of challenging issues to select target-areas for advertising if users are uniformly distributed. In this paper, we propose D2D based advertisement dissemination algorithm using user clustering with expectation-maximization. The user distribution of each cluster can be estimated by principal components (PCs) obtained from each cluster. That is, PCs enable the target-areas and routing paths to be properly determined according to the user distribution. Consequently, advertisement messages are able to be disseminated to many users. We evaluate performances of our proposed algorithm with respect to coverage probability and average reception number per user.

In this paper, a performance evaluation model of the switch router with the multiple-buffered crossbar switches is proposed and examined. Buffered switch technique is well known to solve the data collision problem of the crossbar switch. The proposed evaluation model is developed by investigating the transfer patterns of data packets in a switch with output-buffers. The performance of the multiple-buffered crossbar switch is analyzed. Steady state probability concept is used to simplify the analyzing processes. Two important parameters of the network performance, throughput and delay, are then evaluated. To validate the proposed analysis model, the simulation is carried out on a network that uses the multiple buffered crossbar switches. Less than $2\%$ differences between analysis and simulation results are observed. It is also shown that the network performance is significantly improved when the small number of buffer spaces is given. However, the throughput elevation is getting reduced and network delay becomes increasing as more buffer spaces are added in a switch.

Next-generation mobile communication systems evolve in the form of high speed data transmission along with integration of wired-wireless network. Therefore, it needs researches on integrating service to heterogeneous networks to offer high speed data transmission and various services while supporting user mobility. In existing studies, heterogeneous networks are linked to single core network separatively, Since vertical handoff between heterogeneous networks leads to some delay, packets may be lost during vertical handoff. To solve this problem, this paper proposes an hierarchically integrated network architecture considering the characteristics of CDMA2000, WiBro, and WLAN. The hierarchically integrated networks are overlaid according to coverage of each network. Therefore, the proposed architecture can minimize handoff delay and packet loss. In addition, this paper proposes an integrated framework for next generation mobile communication networks.

In this paper, we develop MPEG-4 AAC streaming player on embedded Linux processor such as mobile terminals. Moreover we show the experimental results that the player preforms the decoding processes of MPEG-4 AAC data effectively. MPEG-4 AAC technology supports a wide range encoding rates and high sound quality so it is appropriate to adopt various applications. In particular, the need in the development of the application of audio data increases according to significantly increase in devices used in mobile environments, such as cell phones and PDAs. In this environment, it is necessary to optimize the decoding processes to the ability of the terminal hardware in order to play audio data without delays. We also implement the decoding module to optimize the processor capabilities and make the player to decode and play streaming audio data from streaming server.

최근 정보통신산업이 급속도로 발전함에 따라 Internet을 이용하여 각종 정보를 쉽게 얻을 수 있게 되어 수자원 분야에도 정보의 공유와 자료의 통합이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 또한 재해정보를 효율적이고 직관적으로 표현하기 위해서 방재업무에 GIS를 도입하고 있다. Internet을 통한 손쉬운 정보의 취득은 효율적인 재해관리에 매우 중요하며, 자료의 효율적인 관리와 표현을 위한 GIS기법 또한 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Internet과 GIS를 결합하여 보다 많은 사람들이 신속하고 정확한 재해정보를 얻을 수 있게 하며, 방재 업무에 활용토록 하여 재해에 의한 주민들의 생명의 위협과 재산피해를 줄이도록 하는데 그 목적이 있다. 효과적인 재해관리를 위해서는 계획과 관련된 정보, 재해발생 이력, 대상지역의 각종 정보가 통합되어 실시간으로 전달될 필요가 있다. 또한 이러한 정보들을 빠른시간내에 이해하고 분석하여 대책을 수립하고 시행해야한다. Internet GIS는 비상상황에 대비한 계획과 대처 그리고 복구사업에 있어 가장 정확하고 신속한 정보를 제공해 줄 수 있다. 즉, Internet GIS는 방대한 양의 정보를 효과적이고 지능적으로 분석이 가능하며, 이해하기 쉬운 그래픽 기반의 자료를 보여주므로 방재업무에 큰 도움을 줄 수 있다. Internet GIS를 방재정보 시스템에 이용할 경우 에 있어 장점, 약점, 기회, 위기에 대한 SWOT분석을 실시하였다. Internet이라는 환경의 장점을 그대로 이어받아 비용면에서 효과적이며 적용범위와 사용자층도 넓어지게 된다. 또한 누구나 간편하게 이용할 수 있어 협력체계 또한 쉽게 구축할 수 있으며 빠른 정보의 교환이 가능하다. 하지만, 인터넷에 의존한다는 점에 있어 서버가 자연재해에 노출될 경우 시스템 자체가 제 기능을 할 수 없으며 여러명이 동시에 서버에 접속을 하기 때문에 컴퓨터에 부하가 많이 걸리는 모델링이나 복잡한 분석은 실시하기 어려우며, 대용량 데이터를 전송할 수 있는 대역폭이 확보 되어야 한다. 또한, Internet 환경으로 개발을 해야되기 때문에 데스크탑용 GIS에 비해 개발속도가 느리며 개발 초기비용이 많이 들게 된다. 하지만, 네트워크 기술의 발달과 모바일과의 연계 등으로 이러한 약점을 극복할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 인터넷 GIS를 이용하여 홍수재해 정보를 검색, 처리, 분석, 예경보할 수 있는 홍수방재정보 시스템을 구축토록 하였다.

A Radiation Alarm Monitor has been developed and manufactured in order to protect radiation workers from over-exposure. A visual and audible alarm system has been attached to initiate evacuation when accident occurs such as an unexpected change of radiation level or an over-exposure. The Radiation Alarm Monitor installed with microprocessor can record the information of radiation field change between 90 min. before the alarm and 30 min. after the alarm and also provide the data to an IBM compatible computer to analyze the accidents and to set a counterplan. It features a wide detection range of radiation field(10 mR/h-100 R/h), radiation field data storage, portability, high precision (${\pm}5%$) due to self-calibration function, and adaption of a powerful alarm system. According to ANSI N42.17A, the most stringent test standards, performance tests were carried out under various conditions of temperature, humidity, vibration, and electromagnetic wave hindrance at Korea Research Institute of Standards & Science (KRISS). As a result, the Radiation Alarm Monitor passed all tests.

This paper is concerned with the relationships between optimal number of wavelengths and tuning time in time division multiplexing(TDM) scheduling on wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) optical passive star networks. We assume that the traffic is nonuniform and each node has a tunable transmitter and a fixed receiver. Each node transmits spckets to all other nodes. Most of the earlier protocols on TDM based scheduling for WDM star networks [7, 8, etc.] use whold given wavelength chnnels. But in this paper, we investigate the optimal number of wavelengths that yidels minimum frame length when tuning time exists. It appears within the availble number of wavelengths that yields minimum frame length when tuning time exists. It appears within the available number of wavelengths. We analyze the relationships between optimal number of wavelengths and tuning time by experiments. We analyze the reationships between optimal number of wavelengths and tuning time by experiments. We also discuss on the possibility of reduction of frame length by increasing the number of nodes trans-mitters and receivers.

In this paper, a distributed beamforming problem is considered in an amplify-and-forward (AF) wireless relay network consist of multiple source-destination pairs and relaying nodes. To exploit degree of freedom of the number of beamformers, in the first step, we proposed that the sources transmit their signals through orthogonal channels. During the second step, the relays transmit their received signals multiplied by complex weights to amplify and compensate for phase changes introduced by the backward channels through one common channel. The optimal beamforming vectors are obtained through minimization of the total relay transmit power while the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratios (SINRs) at the destinations are above certain thresholds to meet a quality of services (QoSs) level. In the numerical example, it is shown that the proposed scheme needs less transmit power for moderate network data rates than other schemes, such as space division multiplexing or time-division multiplexing scheme.

Error propagation of source-relay (S-R) link limits the performance of decode-and-forward (DF) relay and prohibits DF relay from achieving full diversity gain. In order to solve this problem, the proposed deployment strategy focuses on two objectives. One is to achieve full diversity gain, and the other is to minimize the used power of the DF relay system. In order to achieve full diversity, the error probability of S-R link should be lower than that of maximal ratio combining (MRC) at destination without error propagation since the error probability of the weaker link dominates the total error probability. The proposed strategy of relay positioning points out the range of the relay position for achieving full diversity, and the used power of the relay is minimized by this range. Analysis of error probability and simulation results prove that the two objectives are achieved by the proposed strategy of the relay position.
