N-screen is an emerging technology to support multimedia multicasting, content sharing and content mobility. N-screen service providers should obtain the technology that provides the highest quality content seamlessly. Distributed nature of WiMedia distributed-MAC protocol can provide full mobility support, and achieves seamless medium access method in contrast to IEEE 802.15.3. So, in this paper, WiMedia distributed-MAC protocol is adopted and an asynchronous multicast transmission (AMT) technology is proposed to enhance performance of seamless N-screen wireless service based on distributed-MAC. The ACK frame transmissions are not required for multicast transmissions. By using this property in AMT, if a device is a multicast receiver, its reserved time slots can be reserved by the other devices with 1-hop distance. Furthermore, each N-screen device broadcasts and shares the information including an order in asynchronous traffic reservations to reduce conflicts in determining the transmission order of asynchronous N-screen packets. Therefore, AMT scheme expands the number of time slots available and throughputs for multicast and asynchronous traffic reservations when comparing with the distributed-MAC standard system. N-screen communications based on distributed-MAC with the proposed AMT shows a new framework for realizing N-screen wireless service with the full content mobility.

본 논문에서는 사물인터넷 환경에서 사용되는 저전력 통신 기술인 IEEE 802.15.4 MAC (Media Access Control) 프로토콜의 성능 분석을 수행한다. 사물인터넷 환경에서는 기기 종류가 다양하고 생성되는 트래픽 특성도 상이하기 때문에 기존 연구와는 달리 트래픽이 혼재되어 있는 heterogeneous traffic 환경을 고려한다. 마코프 체인을 통해 프로토콜의 성능을 MAC 파라미터의 함수로 도출하였고 이를 기반으로, 사용되고 있는 애플리케이션을 위한 에너지 효율적인 최적 MAC 파라미터를 실시간으로 찾는 프레임워크를 설계하였다. 제안 방식은 기존의 파라미터를 고정시켜 운용하는 방법 대비 에너지 이득이 있음을 애플리케이션 시나리오별 비교를 통해 보였고, 제안된 프레임워크가 연산 능력의 한계를 가지는 소형 기기에서도 충분히 사용될 수 있음을 정확도와 속도 측면에서 검증하였다.

This paper proposes a packet-based channel access scheme in Distributed-Queuing Request Update Multiple Access(DQRUMA) MAC(Media Access Control) protocol. To increase a channel access ratio, we eliminate the wait-to-transmit state that does not transmit Xmt_Req(Transmission Request) although the mobile terminal(MS) has new arrival packets in buffer.

Cognitive radio (CR) has emerged as one of effective methods to enhance the utilization of existing radio spectrum. Main principle of CR is that secondary users (SUs) are allowed to use the spectrum unused by primary users (PUs) without interfering PU's transmissions. In this paper, PUs operate on a slot-by-slot basis and SUs try to exploit the slots unused by PUs. We propose OSA protocols in the single channel and we propose an opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) protocols in the multi-channel cognitive radio networks with one control channel and several licensed channels where a slot is divided into contention phase and transmission phase. A slot is divided into reporting phase, contention phase and transmission phase. The reporting phase plays a role of finding idle channels unused by PUs and the contention phase plays a role of selecting a SU who will send packets in the data transmission phase. One SU is selected by carrier sense multiple access / collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) with request to send / clear to send (RTS/CTS) mechanism on control channel and the SU is allowed to occupy all remaining part of all idle channels during the current slot. For mathematical analysis, first we deal with the single-channel case and we model the proposed OSA media access control (MAC) protocol by three-dimensional discrete time Markov chain (DTMC) whose one-step transition probability matrix has a special structure so as to apply the censored Markov chain method to obtain the steady state distribution.We obtain the throughput and the distribution of access delay. Next we deal with the multi-channel case and obtain the throughput and the distribution of access delay by using results of single-channel case. In numerical results, our mathematical analysis is verified by simulations and we give numerical results on throughput and access delay of the proposed MAC protocol. Finally, we find the maximum allowable number of SUs satisfying the requirements on throughput and access delay.

Full-duplex (FD) technologies enable wireless nodes to simultaneously transmit and receive signal using the same frequency-band. The FD modes could improve their physical layer throughputs. However, in the wireless ad hoc networks, the FD communications also produce new interference risks. On the one hand, the interference ranges (IRs) of the nodes are enlarged when they work in the FD mode. On the other hand, for each FD pair, the FD communication may cause the potential hidden terminal problems to appear around the both sides. In this paper, to avoid the interference risks, we first model the IR of each node when it works in the FD mode, and then analyze the conditions to be satisfied among the transmission ranges (TRs), carrier-sensing ranges (CSRs), and IRs of the FD pair. Furthermore, in the media access control (MAC) layer, we propose a specific method and protocol for collision avoidance. Based on the modified Omnet++ simulator, we conduct the simulations to validate and evaluate the proposed FD MAC protocol, showing that it can reduce the collisions effectively. When the hidden terminal problem is serious, compared with the existing typical FD MAC protocol, our protocol can increase the system throughput by 80%~90%.

현재 항공기에서 사용중인 ACARS의 항공기국과 지상 통신국 사이의 MAC 프로토콜인 CSMA는 고정 터미날 라디오 통신이나 유선 LAN에서는 적합하지만 무선 이동 라디오 환경에는 부적합한 면이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이 문제의 해결을 위해 제안된 ICMA/CD를 살펴보고 이를 개선하기 위하여 별도의 제어 채널을 두지 않고 제어 신호를 메세지 신호에 삽입시키는 변형된 ICMA/CD를 제한하고 이의 성능을 분석한 후 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증하였다. 결과적으로 변형된 ICMA/CD는 CSMA의 성능을 저하시키는 잠복 터미날 문제를 해결하는것과 동시에 ICMA/CD의 성능을 저하시키는 패킷 감지 지연 시간이 제거되므로 유선통신에서 사용되는 CSMA/CD와 같은 좋은 채널 효율을 얻을 수 있다는 결론을 얻었다. 따라서, 이 결과는 변형된 ICMA/CD 프로토콜이 항공통신에서 사용하기에 적합하다는 것을 보여준다.

MAC (media access control) bridge is used to interconnect separate LANs and to relay frames between the BLANs (bridged LANs). Bridge architecture consists of MAC entity, MAC relay entity and bridge protocol entity protocol entity and performs learning, filtering and forwarding functions using filtering database. In this paper, we simulate these functions of bridge and the STP (spanning tree protocol). The STP derives an active topology from an arbitrarily connected BLAN. Our simulation model assumes a BLAN consisted of three bridge forming a closed loop. In order to remove the loop, each bridge process exchanges configruation BPDU (bridge protocol data unit0 with other bridge processes connected to the bridge itself. To simulate the communication between bridges, we implement the IPC (inter-process communication) server using message queues. Our simulation results show that the assumed BLAN contains no closed loop and then there is no alternative route and no unnecessary traffic.

In this paper, we have analyzed the performance of a BRAM (The Broadcasting Recognizing Access Method) protocol, as a CSMA/CA (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avoidance) scheme, which is widely used in wireles LAN systems. We have selected a Fair BRAM protocol among CSMA/CA schemes, considering the fairness of channel usage and the simplicity of the protocol. We have compared the performance of BRAM protocol to that of CSMA/CD. to research the characteristics of BRAM in wireless LAN system. In order to analyze the performance of this system, we have set up an imbedded Markov chain and calculated state transition probabilities. Then we have calculated steady state probabilities and finally derived the throughput of a Fair BRAM moder. To verify our analysis, we have simulated practical models. Then, we have found that analytic results are very close to simulation ones. Our analysis of the BRAM protocol will be expected to be very helpful to design and evaluate a MAC (Media Access Control) protocol in wireless LAN systems.
