Wireless communication is one of most active areas in modern communication researches, QoS (Quality of Service) assurance is very important for wireless communication systems design, especially for applications such as streaming video etc., which requires strict QoS assurance. The modern wireless networks multi-layer protocol stack structure results in QoS metrics layered and acting in cascade and QoS metrics vertical mapping between protocol layers. Based on virtual buffer between protocol layers and queuing technology, a unified layered QoS mapping framework is proposed in this paper, in which we first propose virtual queue concept, give a novelty united neighboring protocol layers QoS metric mapping framework, and analysis method based on dicerete-time Markov chain, and numerical results show that our proposed framework represents a significant improvement over previous model.

A home network is a collection and connection of many electronic and electrical devices in home in order to make daily life comfortable, entertaining and safe. The convergence of Ethernet and wireless technology to a single shared broadband connection in residential gateway is the key feature of the home network. This kind of heterogeneous network has realized the need to implement different QoS mechanisms. Basically, in this paper we propose to integrate IP QoS and Wireless QoS mechanisms for QoS assurance in home network. This paper compares the combination of PCF with two queuing algorithms Low Latency Queuing (LLQ) and Custom Queuing (CQ) and concludes that the combination of CQ and PCF performs best for home network.

To satisfy the requirements for QoS and acceptance ratio of the users using multimedia content service, it is required to control mechanism for QoS assurance and allocation of the stream server' resources based on CoS(Class of Service). To compare performance of the algorithm, we have classified the user by two classes (super class, base class) and control the acceptance ratio of user's requests by user's class information. We have experimented the test of network resources and test of processing time under server/client environment and agent environment. MA-URFA based on agent increases the acceptance ratio of super class and utilization ratio of network resources.

차세대 인터넷에서 DiffServ 네트워크는 서비스 품질(QoS: Quality of Service) 제공을 위한 확장성이 높은 구조를 제시하고 있다. 차세대 네트워크에서는 음성이나 비디오 전송 같은 많은 응용들을 지원하기 위하여 QoS 보장 서비스가 필요하다. 차세대 인터넷에서 QoS 제공을 위하여 RSVP(Resource Reservation Protocol), MPLS(Multi-Protocol Label Switching), DiffServ 및 QoS 라우팅 등의 기법이 개발되고 표준화되고 있다. 원격 교육 역시 주로 인터넷이 주도하고 있다는 면에서는 QoS의 문제를 피해 갈 수 없는 것이다. 그러나, 국내에서는 이러한 QoS 능력을 안전하게 제공하기 위한 기법에 대한 연구가 거의 없는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 QoS를 안전하게 제공하기 위한 보안 기법을 DiffServ 네트워크를 중심으로 제시하고 원격교육에 적용시의 문제들을 고려하고자 한다.

VOD나 영상회의 등과 같은 실시간 서비스를 이용하는 사용자가 급속도로 증가함에 따라 QoS 보장이라는 새로운 요구사항이 등장하였지만 현재 인터넷의 Best-effort 방법으로는 QoS 보장을 완전히 지원하지 않고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위한 방법에는 망 차원의 QoS 아키텍처 이외에도 사용자가 원하는 QoS 보장을 위한 애플리케이션 레벨 QoS 정의와 DiffServ와 같은 새로운 망에서의 QoS 지원을 위한 체계적 정보가 필요하며 이러한 정보를 저장하고 관리할 실시간 서비스에 맞는 정보 저장소가 요구되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 대표적인 실시간 서비스인 VOD 서비스의 QoS 보장을 위해 필요한 정보들을 추출하여 디렉토리 객체로 정의하고, 효율적인 탐색이 가능한 확장된 디렉토리 시스템을 설계한다. LEAP(Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)을 이용하여 정보를 액세스하는 디렉토리 시스템은 저장소의 물리적 위치에 대한 제약 없이 정보의 분산 및 접근을 용이하게 하며, 논리적인 트리 구조에 따르는 빠른 검색을 가능하게 한다.

Today's Internet is providing a single service which is so-called "best-effort service". Now, multimedia and real-time applications are not only demanding large bandwidth but also requiring high QoS. For this, MPLS and DiffServ technology can be adopted to support more scalability and QoS for data traffic engineering. The DISN(Defense Information Systems Network) supports CBR service for voice traffic and VBR service for data traffic which is best-effort service. We propose how to adopt MPLS and DiffServ technology to support traffic engineering and guarantee QoS in the DISN. A traffic analysis according to prioritized traffic classes is done using OPNET simulation tool for assuring QoS. The result shows that low priority packets are delayed a little bit, but high priority packets are transferred more efficiently than without traffic engineering.gineering.

This paper is presented to prepare NGN quality assurance management process under the quality system test methodology. The process should be drawn for NGN quality measurement framework of multimedia traffic. NGN test bed management process model are QoS measurement metrics, measurement interval meter above, and measuring tools, measuring equipment, measurement methods and measurement results from a series of processes for the analysis and methodology. This model, NGN quality assurance activities should be utilized in the future. Quality target level only when themselves constantly measured and managed, does not guarantee the communication quality of service. It is sensitive to the importance of NGN network technology paradigm for research on quality management in the NGN.

In this work, we propose an analytic framework for dimensioning the link capacity of broadband access networks which provide universal broadband access services to a diverse kind of customers such as patient and impatient customers. The proposed framework takes into account the flow-level quality of service (QoS) of a connection as well as the packet-level QoS, via which a simple and systematic provisioning and operation of the network are provided. To that purpose, we first discuss the necessity of flow-aware network dimensioning by reviewing the networking technologies of the current and future access network. Next, we propose an analytic model for dimensioning the link capacity for an access node of broadband convergence networks which takes into account both the flow and packet level QoS requirements. By carrying out extensive numerical experiment for the proposed model assuming typical parameters that represent real network environment, the validity of the proposed method is assessed.

Recently, the metropolitan area network (MAN) has attracted much attention in telecommunication research and has emerged as one of the most important research topics in the community. Several standards representing the first step for developing metropolitan networks have been published; IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX) has taken a relevant role in reaching the goal of realizing a full-service network all over a urban and suburban area. At the same time, the wireless local area networks (WLAN) have been widely used for in-home or short range communications, mainly basing on the IEEE 802.11 (WiFi) standard. A consequence is the increasing interest in interworking technology, that allows an interconnection between different standards by maintaining certain properties, mainly in terms of quality of service (QoS). One of the major issues is to design bridging devices capable of transparently interconnect different wireless technologies. In this paper, we propose two interconnection bridging solutions between WiMAX and WiFi links; the first is more based on the concept of maintaining a certain end-to-end QoS level independently from the wireless technologies used. The second method is more devoted to the reduction of the implementation complexity at the cost of no QoS assurance. The performance of the two methods are compared by resorting to computer simulations showing the advantages of each one technique.

In this paper, we propose a QoS guaranteed and energy-efficient transmission scheme for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs), which operate in conjunction with contention-based access protocols such as CSMA/CA. Energy consumption is one of the most important issues in WPAN systems, because WPAN devices are often required to operate under limited battery capacity. Furthermore, if the WPAN adopts a contention-based medium access protocol, the energy consumption problem becomes even more critical due to the collisions caused by independent channel access trials. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an algorithm that selects the optimum fragment size, modulation level, and transmission power, in order to minimize the energy consumption and guaranteethe QoS (Quality of Service) requirements, simultaneously. Our simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has better performance than the previous ones.
