With the development of communication technologies and smartphone, requirements of positioning accuracy for LBS (Location Based Service) are becoming increasingly important. LBS is a service which offers the information or entertainment based on a location to users. Therefore, positioning is very important for LBS. Among many positioning methods, IEEE 802.11 WLAN positioning measures the distance using the RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) attenuation log model. Thus in order to enhance positioning, we modify the IEEE 802.11 RSSI attenuation log model by adaptive weighting method. In this paper, we propose improved IEEE 802.11 RSSI attenuation log model for enhanced indoor positioning.

본 논문에서는 광대역 무선 데이터 서비스용으로 표준화된 WLAN IEEE 802.11a Convolutional 부호기의 펑처링 패턴에 따른 성능을 분석하고, 간략화 된 구현 방법을 제시한다. 제한된 주파수 대역에서 Convolutional 부호기의 구조를 변경함이 없이 정보 전송율을 향상시키기 위해 부호기에서 출력되는 비트열을 일정한 비트 간격마다 1비트씩 생략하는 펑처링 기법이 주로 이용된다. IEEE 802.11a WLAN 채널코딩에서도 부호율이 l/2, 구속장 7인 Convolutional 부호기를 기반으로 2/3와 3/4과 같은 높은 부호율을 얻기 위해 펑처링 기법을 채택하고 있다. 본 논문에서는, 단일 하드웨어 구조를 사용해서 1/2의 기본 부호율로부터 전송율에 따라 WLAN IEEE 802.11a의 펑처링에 의한 부호율 2/3와 3/4에서, 부호기의 구조를 간략화하기 위해 펑처링 패턴 구조에 따른 부호화 성능을 조사하고 단일하드웨어 구조를 사용해서 이들 부호율의 시스템을 구현할 수 있도록 한다. 모의 실험에서는 부가 백색 가우시안 잡음 현상이 존재하는 채널을 모델링 해서, BPSK와 QPSK의 변조방법에 대해 WLAN IEEE 802.11a 펑처링 패턴에 따른 부호화 성능을 제시한다.

This paper proposes a carrier frequency of set estimation algorithm for IEEE802.11n system. As IEEE802.11n is a multiple input multiple output(MIMO) system, so there are several combining techniques which are used in multiple receive antenna system. In this paper, we propose hybrid carrier frequency offset estimation algorithms using combining techniques in multiple receive antenna systems, and show that the proposed selection combining carrier frequency offset (CFO) estimation algorithm can estimate carrier frequency offset within 1/10 MSE error at SNR 10 dB in channel B and within 1/2 MSE error at SNR 10 dB in channel D rather than the conventional MIMO CFO one.

In IEEE 802.16j MMR protocol, two modes about usage of RS are proposed; one is transparent mode to enhance data throughput and the other is non-transparent mode to extend coverage. In this paper, we focus on non-transparent mode and find that the mode can also improve data throughput. Therefore, we analyze data throughput on various RS topology and their extended coverage area by simulation in IEEE 802.16j non-transparent mode. We also compare the simulation results with the single MR-BS system of which coverage is extended by higher transmission power. From the comparisons of simulation results, we see that higher throughput can be obtained in the proposed non-transparent mode.

The femtocell is a miniaturized Base Station (BS) with low-cost and low-power using general broadband access network as backhaul. It is expected not only to improve indoor coverage but also to reduce a service charge. However, in IEEE 802,16e femtocells, when the Mobile Station (MS) scans neighbor BSs for handover, it takes a long time due to too many number of femto BSs. Also the size of the neighbor advertisement message that will be periodically sent by a serving BS is increased as the number of target femto BSs for scanning increases. In this paper, we proposed an efficient femtocell scanning scheme, using a triangulation mechanism and a femto BS monitoring scheme to reduce the number of scanning operations and the size of the neighbor advertisement messages. The proposed scheme can avoid wasting air resources and reduce scanning overheads by minimal scanning operation. The simulation results showed that the proposed scheme could improve scanning performance and avoid wasting air resources, compared with the conventional scheme of the IEEE 802.16e system.

The reference scheduler presented by IEEE 802.11e standard is inefficient because it polls all admitted stations in the same interval. It increases poll overheads and waste time. In this paper we proposed an efficient scheduling algorithm to improve the aggregate throughput and the number of admitted stations.

There are many research to find not only user data but also physical information about objects or human in radio signals. And we can obtain physical information from the wireless signals such as RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator), Doppler frequency and other values. For example, the Doppler frequency is generated by the object moving physically in wireless signals used for communication. By analyzing the Doppler frequency, the moving speed and direction of the object can be predicted. In this paper, we study the previous research which is to detect the moving objects or human using wireless signals, 802.11a signals. We introduce and verify the method to improve the frequency domain resolution of commercial 802.11a receivers to observe the doppler frequency and obtain the information of the moving objects or human.

In this paper, 2-stage power amplifier has been designed for 5.8GHz wireless LAN application. The power amplifier PldB output power has 21.6dBm at 5.8GHz frequency. Also the power amplifier shows 17.6dB gain and -17.8dB input return loss at 5.725GHz to 5.825GHz. The OFDM modulation and transmission block have been modeled in order to analyse the relationship between the power amplifier distortion and output ACPR for the IEEE 802.11a wireless LAN. The nonlinear characteristic of the power amplifier has been modeled as AM-to-AM and AM-to-PM using the behavioral model, and the output spectrum is analysed with the phase distortion variation. Also, amplifier back-off value from PldB to satisfy the required IEEE 802.11a standard spectrum mask has been simulated with phase distortion, and the simulation data have been compared to the measurement result collected by using the pre-distortion technique.

This paper proposes a new fast vertical handover mechanism to optimize and enhance the existing fast vertical handover HMIPv6(FV-HMIP) mechanism in heterogeneous wireless access networks. The proposed mechanism ad opts the IEEE 802.21 Media Independent Handover Function(MIHF), and thus is called the "MFV-HMIP". The Media Independent Handover Service (MIIS) in the IEEE 802.21 MIHF is extended by including new L3 inform ation to provide domain prefixes of heterogeneous neighbouring mobility anchor points(MAPs). This can eliminate the heterogeneous neighbouring MAP discovery phase in the existing FV-HMIP. Thus, the proposed MFV-HMIP can reduce the signalling traffic over wireless link and increase the possibility of predictive mode operation. Therefore, the proposed MFV-HMIP mechanism can be superior to the existing FV-HMIP mechanism for wireless resource efficiency, handover latency, and packet loss. Through analytic performance evaluations and computer si mulations, the proposed mechanism can be shown to optimize and enhance the existing mechanism.

It is necessary for maritime multi-band networks, which provide ships with diverse and seamless multimedia services, to perform vertical handover. As IEEE 802.21 WG has standardized vertical handover technologies for terrestrial wireless networks that do not consider VHF, HF, satellite networks, they cannot be directly applied to maritime multi-band networks. In this paper, the vertical handover framework for use in maritime mutlti-band networks is proposed, which includes the logical architecture, the communication reference model, re-defined handover primitives, and the handover process. The proposed vertical handover for maritime multi-band network can be applied in the ocean alone, as well as to the heterogeneous wireless networks which embrace both terrestrial and maritime networks.
