Recently, broadband access networks have been competitively deployed all over the world with the development of various multimedia services for such a network. ETRI(Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute) built the FTTH(Fiber-To-the-Home) service center to develop a next-generation equipment and a high-quality service/platform as well as to promote domestic industry in the field of optical communication. The FTTH service center has a variety of test equipments such as FTTH standard testbed for a BMT(bench mark test), a network operation center, and IPTV service equipments. Also, ETRI deployed a new type of commercial optical access networks cooperating with ISP(Internet Service Provider). This paper presents the performance evaluation of FTTH E-PON(Ethernet Passive Optical Network) system as a platform for TPS(Triple Play Service) based on QoS(Quality of Service) and QoE(Quality of Expericence) issues. This FTTH E-PON system is successfully demonstrated as an optical access network system by commercial network service provider and the FTTH service center of ETRI.

We have relatively heavy stocks of hardwood which consist of inferior and nonproductive natural hardwood species in Korea. As conception above to develope these forest resources, the study was carried out to obtain the basical data for the reasonable and efficient utilization of hardwoods. The sample trees were selected 11 natural hardwood species grown in Kangwon-do region and Kwangnoong Experimental Forest. We have investigated anatomical, physical and mechanical properties of them. Especially, Quercus species which is a major species in the forests was investigated on qualities of trees, logs and lumbers, recevery of bucking and lumber yield, etc.

Mobile communication systems should be able to support multimedia traffics with limited transmit power due to the frequency reuse for maximizing the channel accommodation. Real-time data is very sensitive to delay, and they need to be transmitted instantly. On the other hand, non-real time data is less sensitive to delay, and their packet loss can be handled more flexibly. Therefore an adaptive resource management scheme is essentially required which enables to keep the minimal power allocated in the base station while guaranteeing the user requirements for QoE within a permissible range. Power-saving techniques are required in order to support multimedia services in the mobile networks because the power consumption increases greatly with the transmission rate increase. This paper proposes a novel scheme which enables to keep the allocated power minimal while guaranteeing the user requirements for QoE within a permissible range.

This study is to estimate the learning curve based on the consequences of reduced voice of customer from each telecommunication service products. We used Exponential Decay Model, which is the most popular among the learning curve models. We attempted to add how VOC changes in accordance with seasonal factors, human resource input, application of software, and the investment. The results of the empirical analysis of each service product as follows: First, as learning curve, customer complaints decreased. Second, human resource input, Network fault make increase or decrease customer complaints(VOC). Third, even though increasing the customer's quality of experience, VOC would not decrease due to service paradox.

Multimedia contents sharing services based on DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) technology such as Allshare or Smartshare in wireless home networks is widely adapted in Korea. However, the characteristics of the wireless network - frequently fluctuated bandwidth and signal strength could degrade the quality perceived by users. To minimize the impact of the challenge there are active researches in dynamic adaptive streaming. This paper proposes a dynamic adaptive streaming approach designed in a wireless network taking into account of the specifications of the user device such as resolution and processor. We modify the Kalman filter considering the characteristics of the device and demonstrate that the proposed approach determines Bit Rate using the modified filter.

The integrated core network architecture and various mobile subscriber behavior can result in a significant increase of signaling load inside the evolved packet core network proposed by 3GPP in Release 8. Consequently, an authentication signaling analysis can provide insights into reducing the authentication signaling loads and latency, satisfying the quality-of-experience. In this paper, we evaluate the signaling loads in the EPS architecture via analytical modeling based on the renewal process theory. The renewal process theory works well, irrespective of a specific random process (i.e. Poisson). This paper considers various subscribers patterns in terms of call arrival rate, mobility, subscriber's preference and operational policy. Numerical results are illustrated to show the interactions between the parameters and the performance metrics. The sensitivity of vertical handover performance and the effects of heavy-tail process are also discussed.
