In-band Full-duplex (IBFD) wireless communication allows improved throughput for wireless networks. The current Half-duplex (HD) medium access mechanism Request to Send/Clear to Send (RTS/CTS) has been directly applied to IBFD wireless networks. However, this is only able to support a symmetric dual link, and does not provide the full advantages of IBFD. To increase network throughput in a superior way to the HD mechanism, a novel three-way handshaking access mechanism RTS/SRTS (Second Request to Send)/CTS is proposed for point to multipoint (PMP) IBFD wireless networks, which can support both symmetric dual link and asymmetric dual link communication. In this approach, IBFD wireless communication only requires one channel access for two-way simultaneous packet transmissions. We first describe the RTS/SRTS/CTS mechanism and the symmetric/asymmetric dual link transmission procedure and then provide a theoretical analysis of network throughput and delay using a Markov model. Using simulations, we demonstrate that the RTS/SRTS/CTS access mechanism shows improved performance relative to that of the RTS/CTS HD access mechanism.

In this paper, we propose a MAC(Media Access Control) protocol based on flexible RWT(RTS Waiting Time) for underwater mobile ad-hoc networks with a three-way handshaking mechanism. This protocol can solve a problem of collision between RTS(Request-To-Send) and CTS(Clear-To-Send) packets in existing MACA(Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) protocol. This proposed MAC protocol is also an effective protocol which can apply to underwater mobile ad-hoc networks in a real field by using implementable technologies. We set flexible RTS Waiting Time called RWT, considering various characteristics of underwater environment. It is possible to support variable network size according to node mobility. Finally, we conduct a performance evaluation between proposed MAC protocol and existing MACA based MAC protocol through practical implementation and experiment. As a result, we verify the superiority of our proposed MAC protocol in terms of throughput, packet drop rate, average transmission time, energy consumption and channel utilization.

ATM/B-ISDN 신호 프로토콜과 같은 통신 프로토콜의 상호운용성을 시험하기 위한 시험경우를 생성하는 알고리즘이 제안되었다 1]. 현재까지 상호운용성 시험경우 도출을 자동화하거나 이에 대한 커버리지를 분석한 경우는 없다. 본 논문은 1]에서 제안한 알고리즘을 프로그램으로 구현하여 TCP 연결설정 프로토콜에 적용하고 결과를 분석한다. 이 과정에서 (1) TCP 연결설정 프로토콜의 3방향 핸드 쉐이킹 부분을 다루지 못했던 기존의 알고리즘을 개선하고, (2) 개선된 알고리즘을 프로그램으로 구현하여 TCP 연결설정 프로토콜의 상호운용성 시험경우를 도출하고, (3) 생성된 상호운용성 시험경우를 트랜지션 커버리지 관점에서 분석하고, (4) 향상된 트랜지션 커버리지를 얻기 위하여 알고리즘 확장 방안을 제시한다.Abstract A test derivation method suitable for testing interoperability for the class of communication protocols like the ATM/B-ISDN signaling protocol was proposed 1]. Up to now, there is no work on automating derivation of the interoperability test suite and analyzing its coverage. In this paper, we implement the algorithm proposed by 1], apply it to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), and analyze its results. In this process, we (1) improve the algorithm that is not applicable to the TCPs three-way handshaking, (2) implement the improved algorithm as a program and derive an interoperability test suite automatically from a given pair of TCP FSMs, (3) analyze generated interoperability test suite in view of transition coverage, and (4) present a method in order to extend the algorithm for better transition coverage.
