FASN GX는 광대역 서비스를 제공하기에 적합한 ATM-PON 시스템을 경제적인 구축의 방법으로 설정하였다. 현재, 다수의 통신 사업자들은 가입자망 구조로서 ATM-PON 시스템 구조를 채택하고 있는 실정이다. ATM-PON 시스템의 상향에서는 멀티플렉싱이 발생한다. 그러므로 멀티플렉싱의 효과적인 자원을 위해서 매체접근제어 프로토콜이 구비되어야 한다. 실제로, 충돌 해결을 위한 알고리즘으로서 tree 알고리즘을 제안하는 많은 MAC 프로토콜 제안서가 있다.[1,2,3,4] 이 tree 알고리즘은 안정되고, 예측 가능하고, 실행 가능한 주요 장점을 제공한다. 그러나 이 알고리즘은 시간에 민감한 높은 우선순위의 트래픽이 들어올 경우에는 성능이 좋지 못하다. 이 논문에서는 ATM 환경의 멀티레벨 서비스를 지원하는데 유용한 새로운 DQT(Double Queue Tree based)알고리즘을 제안한다. 그리고 알고리즘의 처리시간과 지연시간을 IEEE802.14에서 제안된 Tree 알고리즘과 비교하여 시뮬레이션 결과를 제시한다.

In this paper, we present a new scheduling scheme for MIMO OFDM Multiuser Diversity System. This scheduling scheme maximizes the system throughput, and at the same time fairly shares the resources based on the feedback information from the receivers and the queue information. To show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, we evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm as compared to K&H and RR algorithms.

향후 수년 내에 흠, 오피스 및 핫스팟 영역에서 초고속 멀티미디어의 서비스 수요가 폭발적으로 증가할 것으로 전망됨에 따라 IEEE 802.11에서는 200-500Mbps급의 차세대 초고속 무선랜 표준으로서 IEEE 802.11n의 표준안을 제정하는 작업을 진행하고 있다. 새로운 표준에는 무선통신의 다양한 기술들이 표준으로 채택될 전망이다. 논의되고 있는 기술들로는 물리계층에서의 다중 안테나의 사용, 송신 빔 형성, 듀얼 밴드 그리고 LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) 등의 기술과 MAC (Media Access Control) 계층에서의 집합 전송, 블록 전송, 링크 적응 기법 등의 채택이 논의되고 있다. 기존의 무선랜 시스템에서 널리 사용되어온 IEEE 802.11a/b/g와의 호환성을 보장한다. 또한 차세대 무선랜은 차량용 통신 장치를 위한 고속 이동성을 보장하는 표준인 IEEE 802.11p에 대한 논의도 함께 이루어지고 있다. 본 고에서는 표준회의에서 논의되고 있는 후보 기술들과 차세대 무선랜의 기술동향을 살펴본다.

IEEE 802.11 무선랜 표준에서 MAC(Media Access Control)은 동기와 비동기의 두 가지 타입의 서비스를 지원한다. 동기적 실시간 트래픽은 PCF(Point Coordination Function)에 의해서 폴링 엑세스 기법에 의해 처리된다. 비동기적 비실시간 트래픽은 CSMA/CA 프로토콜 기반의 DCF(Distributed Coordination function)에 의해 처리된다. 그래서 실시간 트래픽은 지연과 패킷손실에 민감하고 비실시간 트래픽은 에러와 처리율에 민감하기 때문에 적당한 트래픽 스케줄링 알고리즘이 설계되어질 필요가 있다. 하지만 IEEE 802.11 무선랜 표준은 실시간 트래픽을 효율적으로 서비스를 해주지 못하고 있다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 PCF 구간내에서 서비스를 받지 못한 실시간 트래픽 스테이션들을 DCF 구간에서 우선적으로 서비스함으로써 QoS를 향상시킬 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 무선 이기종망 환경에서 운용되는 듀얼모드 단말이 현재의 연결을 무선랜으로 변경하는 경우에 필요한 선인증 과정의 최적화 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 인증 기법은 빠른 채널 변경 기술을 MAC(Media Access Control) 기능에 적용하여 현재 활성화 된 패킷 데이터 통신에 손실을 최소화 하고 핸드오프 과정에서 발생할 수 있는 인증 과정에 필요한 지연시간을 단축한다. 또한 시뮬레이션 실험을 통하여, 기존에 제안된 전통적인 인증 방법을 사용하는 일반적인 방식 보다 빠른 핸드오프를 수행하여 끊김없는 연결성을 보장함을 보인다.

Because EPON access network shares a medium and aggregates the traffic from EPON subscribers, scheduling media access control on EPON bandwidth allocation is very important. Furthermore DBA mechanism of EPON based on TDMA is out of specification and up to implementation. This paper deals with a DBA method to guarantee the QoS of the delay sensitive traffic on the base of best-effort service and delay priority queue management. The proposed method performs virtual scheduling algorithm for the integrated traffic. It uses the same MAC messages and tries to guarantee the QoS of higher priority traffic first with a simple DBA architecture. We evaluate the algorithm for traffic delay according to polling interval and traffic load of upstream and downstream. The results show that the proposed method can guarantee the QoS of the delay sensitive traffic with priority of the service classes.

High-availability seamless redundancy (HSR) is a protocol for fault-tolerant Ethernet (FTE) networks. It provides two frame copies and each copy is forwarded on a separate physical path, which provides zero fail-over time. Therefore, the HSR is becoming a potential candidate for various real-time FTE applications. However, the generation and circulation of unnecessary frames due to the duplication of every sending frame is inherent drawback of HSR. Such drawback degrades the performance of the network and may deplete its resources. In this paper, we present a new algorithm called port locking (PL) based on the media access control (MAC) address to solve the abovementioned problem in popular connected-rings network. Our approach makes the network gradually learn the locations of the source and the destination nodes without relying on network control frames. It then prunes all the rings that do not contain the destination node by locking corresponding rings' entrance ports. With the PL algorithm, the traffic can be significantly reduced and therefore the network performance will be greatly enhanced specially in a large scale connected-rings network. Analytical results are provided to validate the PL algorithm.

Time division multiple access (TDMA) is a widely used media access control (MAC) technique that can provide collision-free and reliable communications, save energy and bound the delay of packets. In TDMA, energy saving is usually achieved by switching the nodes' radio off when such nodes are not engaged. However, the frequent switching of the radio's state not only wastes energy, but also increases end-to-end delay. To achieve high energy efficiency and low delay, as well as to further minimize the number of time slots, a multi-objective TDMA scheduling problem for industrial wireless mesh networks is presented. A hybrid algorithm that combines genetic algorithm (GA) and simulated annealing (SA) algorithm is then proposed to solve the TDMA scheduling problem effectively. A number of critical techniques are also adopted to reduce energy consumption and to shorten end-to-end delay further. Simulation results with different kinds of networks demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms traditional scheduling algorithms in terms of addressing the problems of energy consumption and end-to-end delay, thus satisfying the demands of industrial wireless mesh networks.

In this paper, a media access control protocol is proposed for voice/data integrated services in the packet CDMA network, and the performance of the proposed protocol is analyzed. The proposed protocol uses the spreading code sensing and the reservation schemes. This protocol gives higher priority to the delay-sensitive voice traffic than to the data traffic. A voice terminal can reserve an available spreading code during a talkspurt to transmit multiple voice packets. On the other hand, whenever a data packet is generated, the data terminal transmits the packet through one of the available spreading codes that are not used by the voice terminals. In this protocol, the voice packets do not come into collision with the data packets. The numerical results show that this protocol can increase the maximum number of voice terminals. The performance for the data traffic degrades by increasing the voice traffic load because of the low priority. But it shows that the data traffic performance can be increased in proportion to the number of spreading codes.

Recently, wireless sensor networks are deployed in various applications range from simple environment monitoring systems to complex systems, which generate large amount of information, like motion monitoring, military, and telematics systems. Although wireless sensor network nodes are operated with low-power 8bit processor to execute simple tasks like environment monitoring, the nodes in these complex systems have to execute more difficult tasks. Generally, MAC protocols for wireless sensor networks attempt to reduce the energy consumption using duty cycling mechanism which means the nodes periodically sleep and wake. However, in the duty cycling mechanism. a node should wait until the target node wakes and the sleep latency increases as the number of hops increases. This sleep latency can be serious problem in complex and sensitive systems which require high speed data transfer like military, wing of airplane, and telematics. In this paper, we propose a solution for reducing transmission latency through distributed duty cycling (DDC) in wireless sensor networks. The proposed algorithm is evaluated with real-deployment experiments using CC2420DBK and the experiment results show that the DDC algorithm reduces the transmission latency significantly and reduces also the energy consumption.
