IEEE 802.11 프로토콜은 근거리 네트워크인 LAN(Local Area Network)을 대상으로 한다. 네트워크를 구성하는 하나의 BSS(Basic Service Set)는 보통 제한된 규모의 크기를 가지며 그 안에 속한 스테이션(station)의 수는 수십 개 내외로 가정한다. 하지만 지능형 교통 시스템과 같은 대규모의 네트워크에서 하나의 AP(Access Point)가 담당하는 BSS의 크기는 수 Km에 달하며 그 안에 속한 스테이션의 수도 수백개에 달한다. 이러한 고속 이동성과 대규모의 스테이션 수를 특징으로 하는 네트워크를 지원하기 위해 기존의 802.11 프로토콜은 적합하지 않다. 본 논문에서는 대규모 고속 이동 스테이션들이 존재하는 네트워크를 지원할 수 있는 802.11 기반의 그룹화 메커니즘을 제안한다. 하나의 BSS 내에서 경쟁하는 스테이션의 수를 그룹화 하여 경쟁의 정도를 완화함으로써 성능을 개선한다. 기존의 802.11 프로토콜 성능을 수학적 모델로 평가하였던 [1]과 제안한 그룹화 메커니즘을 도입하였을 경우의 성능을 수학적으로 비교 분석한 결과 그룹화를 통해 최대 187%의 성능 향상을 가져올 수 있음을 보였다.

The IEEE 802.11 protocol is the most mature technology for WLANs(Wireless Local Area Networks). However, as the number of stations increases, the delay and throughput performance of IEEE 802.11 MAC(Medium Access Control) degrades severely. In this paper, we present the comprehensive performance analysis of IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol by investigating the MAC layer packet service time when arrival packet sizes have a general probability distribution. We obtain the discrete probability distribution of the MAC layer service time. By using this, we analyze the system throughput and the MAC layer packet service time of IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol in wireless LAN environment. We take some numerical examples for the system throughput and the mean packet service time for several special distributions of arrival packet sizes.

This paper describes a design of AES-based CCMP(Counter mode with CBC-MAC Protocol) core for IEEE 802.11i wireless LAN security. To maximize the performance of CCMP core, two AES cores are used, one is the counter mode for data confidentiality and the other is the CBC node for authentication and data integrity. The S-box that requires the largest hardware in ARS core is implemented using composite field arithmetic, and the gate count is reduced by about 27% compared with conventional LUT(Lookup Table)-based design. The CCMP core was verified using Excalibur SoC kit, and a MPW chip is fabricated using a 0.35-um CMOS standard cell technology. The test results show that all the function of the fabricated chip works correctly. The CCMP processor has 17,000 gates, and the estimated throughput is about 353-Mbps at 116-MHz@3.3V, satisfying 54-Mbps data rate of the IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g specifications.

IEEE 802.11n supports two frame aggregation schemes, aggregation for MAC service data unit (A-MSDU) and aggregation for MAC protocol data unit (A-MPDU), to improve throughput at the MAC layer. In this paper, we propose a cooperative frame aggregation (CoFA), which can recover erroneous frames in a cooperative manner based on A-MPDU. Specifically, CoFA receive multiple frames from direct and relay paths, and combined multiple frames jointly. Numerical results show that CoFA outperforms direct transmission and relay transmission over diverse channel conditions.

This paper is focused on the modulation scheme detection of the IEEE 802.11 standard. In the IEEE 802.11ac standard, the information of the modulation scheme is indicated by the modulation coding scheme (MCS) included in the VHT-SIG-A of the preamble field. Transmitting end determines the MCS index suitable for the low signal to noise ratio (SNR) situation and transmits the data accordingly. Since data field decoding can take place only when the receiving end acquires the MCS index information of the frame. Therefore, accurate MCS detection must be guaranteed before data field decoding. However, since the MCS index information is the information obtained through preamble field decoding, the detection rate can be affected significantly in a low SNR situation. In this paper, we propose a relatively robust modulation classification method based on deep learning to solve the low detection rate problem with a conventional method caused by a low SNR.

In this paper, a low area timing synchronization structure for the IEEE 802.11a OFDM MODEM SoC is proposed. The timing synchronization block of the IEEE 802.11a OFDM MODEM SoC requires large implementation area. In the proposed timing synchronization structure, it is shown that the number of multiplication can be reduced by using the transposed direct form filter. Furthermore, implementation area of the proposed structure can be more reduced using CSD(Canonic Signed Digit) and Common Sub-expression Sharing techniques. Through Verilog-HDL coding and synthesis, it is shown that the 22.7 % of implementation area can be reduced compared with the conventional one.

A basic access method about IEEE 802.11 MAC layer protocol using IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs is the DCF thatis based on the CSMA/CA. But, cause of IEEE 802.11 MAC layer uses original backoff algorithm (exponential backoff method), when collision occurred, the size of contention windows increases the double size Also, a time of packet transmission delay increases and efficienty is decreased by original backoff scheme. In this paper, we have analyzed TCP packet transmission time of IEEE 802.11 MAC DCF protocol for wireless LANs a proposed enhanced backoff algorithm. It is considered the transmission time of transmission control protocol (TCP) packet on the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in additive white gaussian noise (A WGN) and Rician fading channel. From the results, a proposed enhanced backoff algorithm produces a better performance improvement than an original backoff in wireless LAN environment. Also, in OFDM/quadrature phase shift keying channel (QPSK), we can achieve that the transmission time in wireless channel decreases as the TCP packet size increases and based on the data collected, we can infer the correlation between packet size and the transmission time, allowing for an inference of the optimal packet size in the TCP layer.

As the Internet usage grows, people want to access the Internet while they are moving. To satisfy this requirement economically, IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs(WLANs) are rapidly deployed. In order to support mobility, WLANs must provide smooth handoff mechanism. Recent studies show, however, handoff delay of WLANs exceeds 300ms, most of which is due to slow scanning mechanism finding a new AP. With this handoff delay, current WLANs is not suitable to provide seamless realtime interactive services such as VoIP sevice. In this paper, we analyze the current handoff method of IEEE 802.11 and we propose a new handoff algorithm which can decrease time needed for searching a new AP and thus reduce overall handoff time. We show by simulation that the proposed algorithm has shorter handoff delay than current handoff method.
