Looking at the direction of the recent amendments of 802.11 family, there are two major trends. One is to enable the wireless transceivers to support the extremely high-speed wireless transmissions, which has been the mainstream so far. Another big trend is providing a high-performance wireless application platform that meets the demands of the market. This paper summarizes the brand-new IEEE 802.11 amendments from 11ax to 11bf under development by analyzing the innovative features and use cases on them. We provide the vision and direction for the research on the revolutionary data-hungry Wi-Fi 6 and the IEEE 802.11be, alias Wi-Fi 7.

When a single source of multimedia contents is distributed to multiple reproduction devices, the audio and video contents require synchronous play for multi-channel stereo sound and lip-synchronization. The multimedia system in vehicle, especially, has researched to move to wireless environments from legacy wired environments. This paper proposes the advanced algorithm for providing synchronized services of real-time multimedia traffic in IEEE 802.11 WLANs [1]. For these, we implement the advanced IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol [2] and the environments for simulation. Also, we estimate and analysis performance of the algorithm, then we experiment and analysis after the porting of algorithm in wireless LAN devices (Linksys wrt-350n AP network device) to characterize timing synchronization accuracy.

IEEE 802.15.4 reserves transmission time to support real-time transport by sending GTS request packets to the PAN coordinator in advance. This paper introduces GTS-FAT technique to reduce the reservation time by giving a higher sending priority to GTS request packets than data packets. Differently from the conventional scheme where these two kinds of packets share a single transmission queue, GTS-FAT scheme allocates two queues with two different contention window sizes like IEEE 802.11e. This paper also proposes an analytical GTS delay model by combining the two legacy models for 802.15.4 and 802.11e to accurately predict the GTS-FAT delay over a given network topology. Our analysis shows that GTS-FAT reduces GTS service delay by up to 50% at the expense of the data delay by only up to 6.1% when GTS request packets four times outnumber data packets.

As the recent development of mobile technology, users want to multi-service in anytime, anywhere, any terminal. To meet the needs of users, it causes a lot of expense that redesign of the entire network or expand the network of services areas. Therefore, IEEE, IETF is offering Handover technology between Heterogeneous Network. In this paper, the IEEE 802.21 MIH Information Server is based on the network. It proposes an improved Handover that L3 layer to optimize the Handover process use of FMIPv6 and executes simulation.

6LoWPAN (IPv6 Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network) is IPv6 packets transmission technology at Sensor network over the IEEE 802.15.4 Standard MAC and Physical layer. Adaptation layer between IP layer and MAC layer performs fragmentation and reassembly of packet for transmit IPv6 packets. RFC4944, IETF 6LoWPAN WG standard document define packet fragmentation and reassembly. In this paper, we propose the 6PASim (6LoWPAN Packet Simulator) to perform IPv6 packet fragmentation and reassembly for performance evaluation. The 6PASim consist of two parts. One is Packet_Transmit_module that makes IEEE 802.15.4 frames the IPv6 packet from upper layer, and transmit its. and the another is Packet_Receive_module that reassembles transferred frames and completes original IPv6 packets. we can evaluate frame transmit rate and amount of control message through 6PASim. The result of simulation shows the SRM (Selective Retransmission Method) scheme provider better performance than IRM (Immediate Retransmission Method) scheme.

This paper proposes hidden-node aware grouping (HAG) algorithm to enhance the performance of institute of electrical and electronics engineers (IEEE) 802.15.4 networks when they undergo either severe collisions or frequent interferences by hidden nodes. According to the degree of measured collisions and interferences, HAG algorithm dynamically transforms IEEE 802.15.4 protocol between a contention algorithm and a contention-limited one. As a way to reduce the degree of contentions, it organizes nodes into some number of groups and assigns each group an exclusive per-group time slot during which only its member nodes compete to grab the channel. To eliminate harmful disruptions by hidden nodes, especially, it identifies hidden nodes by analyzing the received signal powers that each node reports and then places them into distinct groups. For load balancing, finally it flexibly adapts each per-group time according to the periodic average collision rate of each group. This paper also extends a conventional Markov chain model of IEEE 802.15.4 by including the deferment technique and a traffic source to more accurately evaluate the throughput of HAG algorithm under both saturated and unsaturated environments. This mathematical model and corresponding simulations predict with 6%discrepancy that HAG algorithm can improve the performance of the legacy IEEE 802.15.4 protocol, for example, even by 95% in a network that contains two hidden nodes, resulting in creation of three groups.

IEEE 802.15.4는 저전력 무선 개인 네트워크 기술의 표준으로서 USN(ubiquitous sensor network)의 핵심 무선 통신 기술로 각광을 받고 있다. 그러나 IEEE 802.15.4는 제한된 RF 전송범위와 스타 토폴로지를 기반으로 하는 통신 기법만을 제공하고 있으며, 인접한 PAN 간(inter-PAN)의 통신 기술은 정의되어 있지 않다. 이러한 기술상의 제약으로 IEEE 802.15.4는 통신 영역이 매우 제한적이며, 이에 따라 통신시 음영지역이 발생하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 현재까지 통신영역 확장을 위한 주요 기술적 사항인 효율적인 토폴로지 형성방법, 주소할당 및 라우팅 방법, 인접 네트워크 간의 비콘 충돌 회피 기법 등에 대한 활발한 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 이중 인접한 네트워크간의 비콘 충돌 방지 기법은 IEEE 802.15.4의 네트워크가 비콘에 의해서 관리된다는 점을 고려하였을 때 데이터 전송 및 네트워크 유지를 위해 우선적으로 해결되어야 할 사항이다. 본 연구에서는 제안된 비콘 충돌 회피 기법을 분석하고, 이중 비활성 구간(inactive portion)을 활용한 기법에 대한 구체적인 구현 방안을 제시 하였다. 또한 상용 임베디드 장치인 Nano-24에 설계한 비콘 충돌 회피 기법을 구현하여 동작을 검증, 분석하였다.

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.

Space-Time Coding(STC) is a technique that utilizes joint correlation of transmitted signals in both time and space domains. Through this approach, diversity and coding gains can be simultaneously obtained. In this paper, we use SPW simulation tool to implement the IEEE 802.11a system. Based on this system, OFDM system with STC and convolutional coder concatenated is implemented. The system performance is analyzed and compared with the performance of the IEEE 802.11a system. The simulation results show that the performance with concatenated codes at a data rate of 6Mbps shows approximately a 5dB gain over the system with the convolutional code only. At a data rate of 12Mbps, the performance with concatenated codes is further improved by approximately 6dB.

In this paper, dynamic GTS scheduling method based on IEEE 802.15.4 is proposed for wireless control system considering reliability and real-time property. The proposed methods can guarantee a transmission of real-time periodic and sporadic data within the limited time frame in factory environment. The superframe of IEEE 802.15.4 is used for the dynamic transmission method of real-time mixed traffic (periodic data, sporadic data, and non real-time message). By separating CFP and CAP properly, the periodic, sporadic, and non real-time messages are transmitted effectively and guarantee real-time transmission within a deadline. The simulation results show the improvement of real-time performance of periodic and sporadic data at the same time.
