In IEEE 802.11n WLANs(Wireless Local Area Networks), to support high throughput, MAC(Media Access Control) layer adopts A-MSDU(Aggregate-MAC Service Data Unit) and A-MPDU(Aggregate-MAC Protocol Data Unit). Generally, as the A-MPDU uses a selective retransmission capability, A-MPDU provides higher throughput than A-MSDU. However, although A-MPDU uses the selective re-transmission capability, if the size of MPDU within A-MPDU is smaller than the size of minimum MPDU starting spacing, A-MPDU can reduce throughput because of the overhead of retransmission owing to the addition of delimiter, that is a dummy MPDU. Therefore, to overcome the above problem, two-level Aggregation method, where the small MPDU within A-MPDU is replaced by not delimiter but A-MSDU, has been introduced. In the two-level Aggregation method, the existing re-transmission scheme retransmits only A-MPDU, but if the size of retransmission data is smaller than the size of the minimum MPDU starting spacing, the proposed retransmission scheme retransmits the aggregated retransmission data and MSDUs. Therefore, we know that the proposed retransmission scheme have better throughput that the existing retransmission scheme.

The heterogeneous wireless access networks has been envisioned to characterize the future wireless networks. In such environments, TCP(Transmission Control Protocol) has to experience poor end-to-end performance because bandwidth and link delay change suddenly when a mobile node moves over different types of wireless networks, which is called vertical handoff. In this paper, we propose a new TCP which maintains each set of congestion control variables, which we call TCP context, for each type of wireless network. The proposed TCP can switch the TCP context against vertical handoff in order to adjust quickly to a newly arrived network. In simulations, the proposed TCP has higher throughput than TCP SACK(Selective Acknowledgment Options) due to its great features to vertical handoff situations.

최근 기지국(Base Station)의 도움 없이 이동 단말기(Mobile Device) 간의 다중 무선 홉을 사용하여 송수신자 간의 데이터 전송을 가능하게 하는 Ad-hoc 통신망에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. Ad-hoc 통신망을 구성하는 이동 단말은 이동성을 고려하여 한정된 배터리로 동작을 하게 된다. Ad-hoc 통신망에서 이동 단말은 종단(End Host)으로만 동작하는 것이 아닌 중계 노드(Intermediate Node)로도 동작을 하기 때문에 통신상에 경로를 제공하는 중요한 역할도 한다. 하지만, 현재 인터넷 상에서 광범위하게 사용되고 있는 전송 규약인 TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)는 수동적인(Reactive)혼잡 제어(Congestion Control)방식으로 망의 혼잡으로 인한 패킷 손실 발생 이전까지 전송 윈도우의 크기를 증가 때문에 반복적인 혼잡과 그로 인한 패킷 손실로 인해 불필요한 재전송을 반복하게 된다. 이와 같이 기존 TCP는 무선 통신망에서 동작하는 이동 단말의 한정된 배터리 전원을 고려하지 않고 동작하기 때문에 이동 단말의 에너지를 불필요하게 낭비하는 문제를 가지게 된다. 본 논문은 Ad-hoc 망에서 이동 단말의 에너지 효율을 개선하기 위해 불필요한 재전송 방지 및 망 상태에 따라 전송률을 적절하게 조절하는 TCP의 새로운 혼잡 제어 기법을 제시하였다. 또한 ns-2 시뮬레이터를 이용한 실험을 통해 이동 단말의 에너지 효율이 제안된 혼잡 제어 기법에 의해 향상되었음을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we discuss a new architecture of future Internet for mobile-oriented environments, named Mobile-Oriented Future Internet (MOFI). The MOFI architecture is designed with Host Identifier and Local Locator (HILL) for identifier and locator separation. Based on the HILL separation architecture, we propose a Dynamic and Distributed Mapping System (DDMS) for identifier-locator mapping control. In DDMS, the mapping control function is distributed onto each access router in the domain, which is different from the centralized approach using a central anchor. For validation of the proposed MOFI-DDMS architecture, we implemented the data delivery and mapping control functions using Linux platform. From the testbed experimental results, we see that the DDMS architecture can give better performance than the existing Proxy Mobile IP (PMIP) protocol in terms of data transmission throughput.

The Growth in wireless Internet has made Networking possible at anytime and anywhere. So mobile devices like cellular phone and PDA are now used in various fields. In particular, the mobility of mobile devices has a great advantage in remote control. This paper designed and implemented a Mobile VNC system that transmitted the screen image of a remote computer, control the remote computer GU and monitor all by cellular phone. The proposed system consists of a Mobile Viewer un on the cellular phone, VNC Server m on a number of remote computers and a VNC Monitor. For communication between the VNC Server and the Mobile Viewer the MRFB protocol is used. The screen image transmitted to the Mobile Viewer is encoded in the PNG format supported by SK-VM, the Java execution environment of the Cellular phone. According to implementation results, the image is about $2KB\~8KB$. According to the 65 times transmission test, the average frame per second is 4.93fps in the emulator and a real cellular phone takes 0.8fps. Therefore, the proposed system is more efficient than existing systems.

Some GM (General Motors) vehicles are using a GMLAN (General Motors Local Area Network) communication protocol for control and diagnostics. The airbag control module uses vehicle speed information from the GMLAN to record the vehicle speed as pre-crash information. In order to use the vehicle speed information for crash reconstruction purposes, it helps to be able to understand the accuracy of the data. The actual vehicle speed is not expected to be the same as the GMLAN indicated speed in some situations like a spin or if there is hard braking. This paper compares the actual vehicle speed and vehicle speed information during specific vehicle maneuvers. Actual vehicle speed is calculated from a GPS sensor, while GMLAN vehicle speed is calculated from transmission output sensor by the Engine control module (ECM). Vehicle maneuvers defined as Mode #1, Mode #2, Mode #3. The Mode #1 maneuver simulates wheel lock-up and skidding f by hard-braking at a specific speed. The Mode #2 maneuver simulates a 90degree turn using a J-turn maneuver at a specific speed. The Mode#3 maneuver simulates a 180 degree turn using a spin type of maneuver at a specific speed. The study then compares the GMLAN speed and GPS speed to see what speed difference exists between them. The results of this paper are applicable to GM vehicles only. This paper catalogs the performance and limitations of two vehicles as useful reference for crash reconstructions where there is a need to understand the speed indicated in the pre-crash section of the SDM data.

The current railway control system in Korea is comprised of signaling, electric rail power, communication, and maintenance systems that are independent of each other. Further, these systems have different mediums and protocols for transmitting the field equipment data to the central control system. The Safety Supervision System has as its purpose the collecting of safety-related data from each system to predict and prevent accidents, this system utilizes standard protocol. Safety-related data need to be collected from field data transmission devices of the existing control system, the data should be collected without affecting the communication of the existing system. In this study, sniffing skill, which is typically used for network traffic monitoring or security, is used to collect data. The problems arising from the use of sniffing devices are noted, and the Packet Conversion Node is proposed as a solution to the problems. Further, functional and performance testing were completed for the prototype, and the software architecture and packet conversion process were verified.

The standards which use shared medium like IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN have transmission opportunity by contention in contention period. If there are collisions in contention period, medium access control protocol may solve problem by using backoff algorithm. Backoff algorithm is important part in medium access control, but legacy backoff method which is used under IEEE 802.11 standards is not adjusted when load is heavy because of increasing collisions. In this paper, we propose a new load-based dynamic backoff algorithm in contention-based wireless shared medium to improve throughput of medium and to reduce the number of collisions. Proposed backoff algorithm can increase the network utilization about $20\%$ higher than that of binary exponential backoff algorithm.

In this study, through the accumulated technologies such as real-time monitoring of power consumption using power line communication (PLC) method, power control, and automatic blocking of standby power, to commercialize them, we developed the hardware design, algorithm, protocol and module along with data transmission using PLC. We conducted the study to develop advanced products. We also proposed cloud-based smart outlet products with a novel type of outlet. These products can measure the internal power consumption through the H/W modules and the modules that control the power of household appliances connected to the smart outlets and smart plugs. Subsequently, they transmit the measurements to the energy saving system server via a communication module. This system can control the terminal device connected to the Gateway (G/W) server through a mobile phone. This will allow the customer to check the power consumption of the building at any given time, to turn the terminal on/off, and to maximize the energy efficiency during the construction of new apartments or multi-family housing in an area.

In this study, a customized semi-passive RFID receiver module was implemented for in-VIVO deep tissue photo-therapy. A novel wireless technique is required due to a limitation of RF communication in body environment, as internal body has a complex structure such as, skin, fat, skeleton, water, and so on. Recently, coherently incoherent beamforming (CIB) based on RFID was introduced and it is able to transmit wireless signal with high reliability under the incoherent condition such as in-VIVO deep tissue. The proposed miniature photo capsule based on RFID consists of miniature controller, ultra small LED array and wireless RFID chip. RF Reader can access with standard RFID protocol (ISO 18000-6c) using UHF RFID antenna, a control command is wirelessly writtern on USER Bank memory. With received control command, therapy LED array dims with mulilevel under timer control. The signal process of designed RFID photo therapy capsule is analyzed and evaluated under the various environments in detailed.
