With the increasing growth of Internet and wireless IP networks, Multimedia systems need to be envisaged as information resources where users can access anywhere and anytime. However, efficient services in these multimedia systems are open and challenging research problem due to user mobility, limited resources in wireless devices and expensive radio bandwidth. To implement multimedia services over heterogeneous network, the IP header compression scheme can be used for saving bandwidth. In this paper, we present an efficient solution for header compression, which is modified form of ECRTP. It shows an architectural framework adopting modified ECRTP when IP tunneling network using GRE over IPSec is implemented. We have conducted simulations in order to analyze the effects of different header compression techniques while delivering real-time services to the wireless access network through secured IP Network. The impacts on performance have been investigated through a series of experiments.

Recently, according to the network environment, there are many researches for home network. Nowadays, in home network, the method that access control policy is managed for each home device by using ACL is popular, and EAM (Extranet access management) is applied as a solution. In addition, the research about secure OS is ongoing based on open operating system and the research of user authentication mechanisms for home network using home server is also in progress. However, these researches have some problems as follows; First, the transmission scope of expected access technology in home network is wide, so unauthenticated outside terminal can access the home network. Second, user is inconvenient because user need to set the necessary information for each device. Third, user privacy and convenience are not considered. OSGi provides a service platform for heterogeneous technologies in home network environment. Here, user access control is one of the core parts which should have no problems such as above items, but there are no concrete researches yet. Thus in this paper, we propose an access control policy management framework and access control operation based on RBAC for user access control in home network environment in which OSGi service platform is operated. First, we list the consideration which is not clearly mentioned in OSGi standard, and then we solve these above problems through new framework. In addition, we propose the effective and economical operation method which reduces the policy change frequency for user access control by using RBAC concept though limited resource of home gateway. Besides, in this paper, these proposed policies are defined separately as user-role assignment policy and permission-role assignment policy, and user decide their own policies. In conclusion, we provide the scheme to enhance the user convenience and to solve the privacy problem.

In this paper, we deal with a new techno-economic modeling and analysis for optical access networks. In deploying the fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) architecture, network planner needs to consider the following techno-economic issues: when do we need to upgrade existing local access network to FTTH network? how much do we invest to maximize profit? In order to answer these techno-economic questions, we need to consider the impact of emerging technologies and business environment. Toward this end, we develop a new techno-economic modeling to deal with the inherent complexity of technology evolution and cost economics. In particular, the new modeling approach provides us with an techno-economic analysis of technology alternatives such as ethernet passive optical network (E-PON) and wavelength division multiplex passive optical network (WDM-PON). In this analysis, we focus on the impact of critical factors such as the cost characteristic of proposed architecture and digital subscriber line (DSL) subscriber's churn-in to FTTH service and churn-out. We develop mixed integer-programming models for finding the evolution path of local access networks to broadband network architectures.

There are three main kinds of service standards for 3G(Third-Generation) wireless communication as WCDMA, CDMA2000 and TD-SCDMA(Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access). Compare with WCDMA and CDMA2000, TD-SCDMA system has distinguished technical characters. It is a TDD(Time Division Duplexing) based technology and deploys several advanced but in some respects complex technologies such as smart antenna, joint-detection and baton-handoff, etc. Therefore to analyze and design TD-SCDMA wireless network, it needs more efficient and systematic simulation tool. General simulation tool has so many analysis functions including path loss prediction, capacity and coverage analysis. For more suitable for TD-SCDMA, new additional technologies have to be implemented in simulation tool. Especially as the wireless network highly advancing focused on data service, it more needs to research and develop on the reliability of the simulation tool. In this paper, to give the concrete process and skill about how to implement TD-SCDMA simulation tool, we define the kinds of simulation tool and list basic analysis functions available for TD-SCDMA network design at first. And then we explain how to consider the effects of new technologies of TD-SCDMA and give the solutions about theses considerations.

Cloud radio access network (C-RAN) refers to the virtualization of base station functionalities by means of cloud computing. This results in a novel cellular architecture in which low-cost wireless access points, known as radio units or remote radio heads, are centrally managed by a reconfigurable centralized "cloud", or central, unit. C-RAN allows operators to reduce the capital and operating expenses needed to deploy and maintain dense heterogeneous networks. This critical advantage, along with spectral efficiency, statistical multiplexing and load balancing gains, make C-RAN well positioned to be one of the key technologies in the development of 5G systems. In this paper, a succinct overview is presented regarding the state of the art on the research on C-RAN with emphasis on fronthaul compression, baseband processing, medium access control, resource allocation, system-level considerations and standardization efforts.

Network assets have been protected from malware infection by checking the integrity of mobile devices through network access control systems, vaccines, or mobile device management. However, most of existing systems apply a uniform security policy to all users, and allow even infected mobile devices to log into the network inside for completion of the integrity checking, which makes it possible that the infected devices behave maliciously inside the network. Therefore, this paper proposes a network defense mechanism based on isolated networks. In the proposed mechanism, every mobile device go through the integrity check system implemented in an isolated network, and can get the network access only if it has been validated successfully.

In Korea, no institutional tool or regulation exists by which a retail business in charge of gathering and maintaining subscribers can be guaranteed independence from the wholesale business division of a fixed incumbent provider of essential facilities such as ducts, poles and copper or fiber cables, which may also be offering the same products to its rivals. For that reason, a wholesale division may have an incentive to intentionally disrupt the sharing of facilities requested by competitive operators in cooperation with the retail division. Ultimately, the facility sharing process will remain inactive when there is a lack of equivalent access to the fixed access network. Therefore, this paper analyzes recent cases of access network separation and suggests long-term measures for the successful implementation of the sharing of facilities.

Cognitive radio network technology is that secondary (unlicensed) users use the spectrum of primary (licensed) users without interfering primary communication. In this paper, we propose multiple access scheme for a cognitive radio network, where multiple secondary users access spectrum of one primary user. We consider two types of multiple access scheme, one is p-persistent and one is non-persistent, and apply these two schemes in the secondary network. For each multiple access scheme, total throughput of secondary network is derived and verified by Monte Carlo simulation. Simulation results show that maximum total throughput of the secondary network is achieved when channel access probability or the number of maximum waiting frames is chosen appropriately.
