For higher reliability against component failures in railroad trains with many electronic sensors and actuators, a distributed control system with which all electronic components are connected via a network is being considered. This paper compares and analyzes various topologies of Ethernet network for a railroad train in the aspects of (1) failure recovery, (2) the number of ports per device, (3) the number of cable connections between vehicles, and (4) performance. Especially, the unique characteristic of a train system that the number of vehicles changes is considered through analysis. Various combinations of in- and inter-vehicle topologies are considered. In addition, we introduce a hybrid of star and daisy-chain topology for inter-vehicle connection when the maximum number of inter-vehicle connections is limited to reduce possible failures of inter-vehicle connections. Simulation results show performance comparison between different topology combinations; the hybrid topology is shown to enhance delay performance even with a highly limited number of inter-vehicle connections.

In this paper, we proposed a multi-viewer system with multiple HD cameras based AVB(Audio Video Bridge) ethernet cable using IP networking, and FPGA(Xilinx Zynq 702) for bus safety systems. This AVB (IEEE802.1BA) system can be designed for the low latency based on FPGA, and transmit real-time with HD video and audio signals in a vehicle network. The proposed multi-viewer platform can multiplex H.264 video signals from 4 wide-angle HD cameras with existed ethernet 1Gbps. and 2-wire 100Mbps cables. The design of Zynq 702 based low latency to H.264 AVC CODEC was proposed for the minimization of time-delay in the HD video transmission of car area network, too. And the performance of PSNR(Peak Signal-to-noise-ratio) was analyzed with the reference model JM for encoding and decoding results in H.264 AVC CODEC. These PSNR values can be confirmed according the theoretical and HW result from the signal of H.264 AVC CODEC based on Zynq 702 the multi-viewer with multiple cameras. As a result, proposed AVB multi-viewer platform with multiple cameras can be used for the surveillance of audio and video around a bus for the safety due to the low latency of H.264 AVC CODEC design.

Client requests have increased with the improvement of network resources at client side, whereas network resources at server side could not keep pace with the increased client request. Therefore, it is primary factor of the Qos that efficiently utilize network resources at server side. In this paper, we proposed a new model that peer-to-peer transfer scheme for partial multimedia stream based on CIWP which it decrease server network bandwidth by utilizing client disk resources saves additional server network resources. Especially, adapting Threshold_Based Multicast scheme guarantees to do that data transfer within clients never exceed service time of previous peer by restriction of which data size transferring from previous peer less than data size transferring from server. Peer-to-peer transfer within clients is limited in same group classified as ISPs. Our analytical result shows that proposed scheme reduces appling network resources at server side as utilizing additional client disk resource. furthermore, we perform various simulation study demonstrating the performance gain through comparing delay time and proportion of waiting requesters. As a result, when we compared to Threshold_Based Multicast scheme, the proposed scheme reduces server network bandwidth by 35%.

해저보행로봇 CR200은 여러 개의 관절로 이루어진 6개의 다리를 이용하여 해저면에서 보행으로 이동하며 해저 정밀탐사 및 작업을 수행하는 로봇으로, 케이블로 연결된 선상제어실에서 원격 제어된다. CR200 시스템에서는 16개의 카메라가 장착될 예정이며, 취득된 카메라의 영상은 선상제어실의 비디오 컴퓨터로 전송되어 모니터링 및 녹화된다. 설계된 비디오 시스템에서 영상 전송은 전자기 간섭에 의한 화질 열화를 최소화하기 위하여 기가비트의 대역폭을 가진 이더넷과 광케이블을 통하여 디지털 형태로 전송되며, 아날로그 카메라의 영상은 비디오 인코더를 사용하여 디지털 영상으로 변환된 후에 전송된다. 본 논문에서는 CR200의 비디오 시스템의 설계를 소개하고, 실제로 제작하기 전에 설계된 비디오 시스템을 검증하기 위하여 테스트베드를 사용한 통합 테스트 결과를 제시한다. 아직 준비되지 않은 카메라에 대해서는 아이패드의 아날로그 영상 출력을 비디오 인코더의 입력으로 전달하여, 설계된 모든 카메라들이 동작하는 상황을 테스트베드로 실험하였다. 16개 카메라의 영상이 모니터링 및 녹화되는 상황을 테스트베드로 실험한 결과에 따르면, 압축률 10%의 H.264 동영상 압축 알고리즘을 사용할 경우에 30fps 영상의 모니터링 및 녹화에 각각 60Mbps의 전송량으로 비디오 시스템이 정상적으로 동작하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 비디오 데이터의 전송은 센서 및 제어 데이터의 전송과 같은 네트워크를 사용하지만, 비디오 데이터의 기가비트 네트워크 사용률은 평균 12%이기 때문에 비디오 데이터 전송으로 인하여 데이터 통신은 거의 영향을 받지 않는다.

In this paper, a digital closed-circuit television (CCTV) transmission system called the extended reach high definition serial digital interface (ER-SDI) is proposed to increase the transmission distance while preserving the quality using digital modulation. The current standard of HD-serial digital interface (HD-SDI) has the maximum transmission distance of 200 m. Recently, one system which transforms the digital signal to an analog signal and modulates color signal to extend the transmission distance is proposed. Another system which uses IP network is also proposed. However, the former system has a disadvantage of video quality and the latter system has high latency. The proposed ER-SDI is designed to extend the transmission distance of 518 m by adopting multilevel constellations and a channel code for a data rate of 1.485 Gbps. The maximum transmission distance of the proposed system is calculated using the specification of HD-SDI and the experiment result under coaxial cable environment.

This paper proposes and evaluates a scheme which enhances real-time performance on the Ethernet-based residential network where cable length is very short and most of traffic passes through a specific device. The scheme aims at enhancing deadline meet ratio of the real-time traffic, for example, video stream by means of applying the functionalities such as queue discrimination and early packet discard as well as maintaining network load properly. The design includes the description on hardware interfaces along with the software modules such as scheduler, device driver and connection manager. The simulation results via SMPL suggest that the proposed network can be used as a cost-effective residential network. We also measure the permissible bandwidth for non-real-time traffic without degrading the performance of real-time traffic.

DOCSIS and IEEE 802.16 define the usage and element of a MAP which is uplink control message. Standards does not include the details of MAP size and the number of contention slots affecting the performance of MAC protocols for DOCSIS and IEEE 802.16. In this paper, we analyzed the performance of throughput and access delay according to the MAP size and contention slot size. Based on the analytical results, we found the optimal MAP size and the number of contention slots. We found that the protocol shows best performance when the MAP size is 2msec and the number of contention slots is 8. The simulation results can apply to the network system parameters. The simulator can be used to optimize the system parameters in cable network, BWA and WiBro.

With the advent of IP-based multimedia service based on IP network, there is a rapidly increasing demand for IPTV. Unlike the previous coaxial cable based TV, IPTV provides a variety of convergence services based on IP newark. However, since the IPTV service quality is a lot affected by the network degradation such as packet loss and jitter, it may not be guaranteed. In this paper, we propose an objective measure for various degradations of IPTV-based videos considering subjective assessment. To this end, we first determine QoE(Quality of Experience) indicators, which can affect human visual perception. Then we develop the video quality metric for each QoE indicator. Subjective assessment based on MOS is conducted and used to construct mapping relationship between each measure and perceived visual quality. Experiments are performed on various videos to confirm the efficiency and robustness of the proposed method and show high correlation with subjective assessment.

The geomagnetic sensor nodes are usually designed with wireless communication and battery for easy installation on the road without cable connection and wiring. To minimize operation cost of a system, it is important to prolong the battery lifetime of the geomagnetic sensors installed on the road. In this paper, we propose a low-power TDMA MAC protocol that reduces energy consumption while guaranteeing the real-time vehicle detection information in the vehicle detection system. The performance evaluations are conducted through a real testbed of a vehicle detection system, and it proves that the proposed low-power protocols provides 5 year lifetime by improving energy efficiency up to about 62%.
