In this paper, we designed and implemented a dual band chip antenna for WLAN, which contains within the small LAN card contrary to the enternal AP(Access Point) antenna. Limiting about the antenna size, we used dielectrics of high permittivity. Totally considering problems of demand-supply, price and characteristics, we used that relative dielectrics of ceramic is 9.8 and the thickness is 3.5mm and 5mm. Ceramic antenna can be used not only triple mode of IEEE 802.11.a,g and b but also broadband. The frequency bands have wideband characteristics of 2.4~2.5GHz and 4.9~5.85GHz and relatively constant performance.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a promising technology for high speed multimedia communication in a frequency selective multipath channel. In this paper, Software IPs for the synchronizer of IEEE 802.11a Wireless LAN system are designed and optimized for TI's TMS320C6201 fixed point DSP. As a result of the execution cycles of the target DSP for each functions of the system, an efficient HW/SW partitioning method can be considered.

In this paper, the BER performance of IEEE 802.11a OFDM WLAN system is obtained by simulation and it is shown that the proposed modified channel estimation algorithm improves the channel estimation performance of the system. The wireless channel used in channel simulation includes AWGN and delay spread channel implemented by TDL model. At first, the performance of OFDM WLAN system according to data rate and coding rate defined in standard is evaluated in AWGN channel. Then, imperfect channel estimation in indoor wireless channel is considered. After the performance of conventional channel estimation scheme using only two long training symbols is evaluated, and that of proposed modified channel estimation scheme using additional 8 short training symbol is compared with it. From the simulation results, it is shown that modified channel estimation scheme provides reduced channel estimation error and improves the channel estimation performance due to noise averaging effect with the same preamble format as defined in specification.

IEEE 802.11 WLAN(Wireless LAN)은 효율성과 편리함으로 시장에 급격히 보급되었다. 이 IEEE 802.11 WLAN은 CSMA/CA를 기반으로 하는 DCF방식을 주로 사용하고 있으며, Contention Window, Backoff Size를 이용한 각 단말기들간의 자유 경쟁에 의한 전송 방식을 택하고 있다. 그 주된 방법으로 단말기는 CW를 설정하고 CW범위안에서 랜덤한 값을 정해 Backoff Counter를 줄여 채널을 점유하는 방식이다. DCF방식은 채널을 두고 여러 대의 단말기가 서로 경쟁을 함으로써 채널을 할당 받아 사용하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 채널 할당시 CW값을 조절하여 다른 단말기보다 채널을 빨리 할당받고 높은 처리량을 나타내는 탐욕적(Greedy) 노드문제에 대해서 분석하는 방법에 대해서 설명하려고 한다.

In this paper, the effects to system performance are evaluated in IEEE 802.11 system when the number of competing terminals are estimated and reflected to the system. The IEEE 802.11 system uses DCF (Distributed Coordination Function) for the multiple access method, and the system throughput performance depends on the accuracy of the estimated number of competing terminals. We propose extended H infinity filter (EHIF) approach which does not require the noise information for estimating the number of competing terminals. Simulation results show that EHIF outperforms the extended Kalman filter in both saturated and non-saturated network conditions.

Restricted Access Window (RAW) has been designed to improve power saving efficiency by reducing collisions of contending stations in the IEEE 802.11ah Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). We conduct simulations in order to observe the stations' operations influencing the lengths of the Restricted Access Window (RAW). From the observation, we consider how to adjust the stations' operations for proper RAW managements.

Channel diversity is exploited to increase multiuser diversity gains in IEEE 802.11 WLANs. To this end, we propose an opportunistic channel switching method and evaluate this with different number of stations, number of channels, switching latency, and the average channel condition of stations.

In this paper, a 4-way Handshake protocol in the IEEE 802.11i is analyzed in terms of both security and reliability. It is shown that the 4-way Handshake protocol breaks down under some conditions due to a MIC (message integrity code) failure, and a solution to fix it is proposed. It is also proposed that a new 2-way Handshake protocol which is more secure and efficient than the 4-way Handshake protocol.

IEEE 802.11i standard specifies full authentication and preauthentication for secure handoff in 802.11 wireless LAN (WLAN). However, the full authentication is too slow to provide seamless services for handoff users, and preauthentication may fail in highly populated WLAN where it is highly probable that the cache entry of a preauthenticated user is evicted by other users before handoff. In this paper, we propose a fast and secure handoff scheme by reducing authentication and key management delay in the handoff process. When a user handoffs, security context established between the user and the previous access point (AP) is forwarded from the previous AP to the current AP, and the session key is reused before the handoff session terminates. The freshness of session key is maintained by regenerating session keys after handoff session is terminated. The proposed scheme can achieve considerable reduction in handoff delay with providing the same security level as 802.1X authentication by letting an AP authenticate a handoff user before making an robust security network association (RSNA) with it.
