As Internet protocol and wireless communications have developed, the number of different types of mobile services has increased gradually. Existing priority-computing schemes cannot satisfy the dynamic requirements of supporting multiple services in future wireless communication systems, because the currently used factors, mainly user priority, are relatively simple and lack relevancy. To solve this problem and provide the desired complexity, dynamic behavior, and fairness features of 3G and beyond 3G mobile communication systems, this paper proposes a novel cross-layer dynamic integrated priority-computing scheme that computes the priority based on a variety of factors, including quality of service requirements, subscriber call types, waiting time, movement mode, and traffic load from the corresponding layers. It is observed from simulation results that the proposed dynamic integrated priority scheme provides enhanced performance.

The location and human activity are usually used as one of the important parameters to monitor the health status in healthcare devices. However, nearly all existing location and monitoring systems have the limitation of short-range communication and high power consumption. In this paper, we propose a new mechanism to collect and transmit monitoring information based on LoRa technology. The monitoring device with sensors can collect the real-time activity and location information and transmit them to the cloud server through LoRa gateway. The user can check all his history and current information through the specific designed mobile applications. Experiment was carried out to verify the communication, power consumption and monitoring performance of the entire system. Experimental results demonstrate that this system can collect monitoring and activity information accurately and provide the long rang coverage with low power consumption.

The dynamic opportunistic device-to-device (DO-D2D) network will frequently emerge in the fifth generation (5G) wireless communication due to high-density and fast-moving mobile devices. In order to improve the Quality of Experience (QoE) of users with different computing capacity devices in the DO-D2D network, in this paper, we focus on the study of how to reduce the packets retransmission delay and satisfy heterogeneous devices. To select as many devices as possible to transmit simultaneously without interference, the concurrent transmitters-selecting algorithm is firstly put forward. It jointly considers the number of packets successfully received by each device and the device's connectivity. Then, to satisfy different devices' demands while primarily ensuring the base-layer packets successfully received by all the devices, the layer-cooperation instantly decodable network coding is presented, which is used to select transmission packets combination for each transmitter. Simulation results illustrate that there is an appreciable retransmission delay gain especially in the poor channel quality network compared to the traditional base-station (BS) retransmission algorithm. In addition, our proposed algorithms perform well to satisfy the different demands of users with heterogeneous devices.

The advent of Third Generation (3G) communication systems, with their ability to process real-time multimedia applications and their large bandwidths, will greatly enhance mobile Internet access. Not only does Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) and cdma2000 radio technology offer an advantageous density for voice in terms of spectral efficiency, it also supports higher rates and offers differentiated levels of duality of Service (QoS) for data applications. The early introduction of packet and multimedia technologies will be a key element in realizing a quick and successful return on the operator's investments in Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) and cdma2000.

글로벌 로밍환경 구축을 위해 UMTS(Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems)와 WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network)의 각각의 장단점을 보완하여 통합한 인터네트워킹에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 현재 UMTS와 WLAN의 인터네트워킹 방식은 크게 loosely-coupled 방식과 장기적 접근을 요구하는 tightly-coupled 방식으로 나눌 수 있다. Loosely-coupled 방식은 MIPv6(Mobile IP version 6)의 HA/AR(Home Agent/Access Router)를 사용하여 핸드오버(handover, HO)를 구현하는 방식이다. Loosely-coupled 방식은 IWU(Inter Woriking Unit)을 통해 직접적으로 두 망이 연결되어 있는 tightly-coupled 방식에 비해 독립적 확장이 가능하고 비교적 구현이 쉬우나 핸드오버의 지연으로 인한 패킷 손실과 서비스 끊김 등의 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 개선하기 위하여 HMIPv6(Hierarchical MIPv6)를 사용하여 UMTS와 WLAN의 인터네트지킹에 대한 핸드오버 프로시저를 제안한다. 총 핸드오버 시간을 구하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 HMIPv6를 사용한 방식이 기존의 MIPv6를 사용한 방식보다 성능이 우수함을 확인하였다.

Energy harvesting is an increasingly attractive source of power for cellular networks, and can be a promising solution for green networks. In this paper, we consider a cellular network with power beacons powering multiple mobile terminals with microwave power transfer in energy beamforming. In this network, the power beacons are powered by grid and renewable energy jointly. We adopt a dual-level control architecture, in which controllers collect information for a core controller, and the core controller has a real-time global view of the network. By implementing the water filling optimized power allocation strategy, the core controller optimizes the energy allocation among mobile terminals within the same cluster. In the proposed green energy cooperation paradigm, power beacons dynamically share their renewable energy by locally injecting/drawing renewable energy into/from other power beacons via the core controller. Then, we propose a new water filling optimized green energy cooperation management strategy, which jointly exploits water filling optimized power allocation strategy and green energy cooperation in cellular networks. Finally, we validate our works by simulations and show that the proposed water filling optimized green energy cooperation management strategy can achieve about 10% gains of MT's average rate and about 20% reduction of on-grid energy consumption.

Small cells are deployed in Heterogeneous Networks (HetNet) to improve overall performance. These access points can provide high-rate mobile services at hotspots to users. In a Small Cell Network (SCN), the good deployment of small cells can guarantee the performance of users on the basis of average and cell edge spectrum efficiency. In this paper, the performance of small cell deployment is analyzed by using system-level simulations. The positions of small cells can be adjusted according to the deployment radius and angle. Moreover, different Inter-Cell Interference Coordination (ICIC) techniques are also studied, which can be implemented either in time domain or in frequency domain. The network performances are evaluated under different ICIC techniques when the locations of Small evolved Nodes (SeNBs) vary. Simulation results show that the average throughput and cell edge throughput can be greatly improved when small cells are properly deployed with the certain deployment radius and angle. Meanwhile, how to optimally configure the parameters to achieve the potential of the deployment is discussed when applying different ICIC techniques.

무선 랜의 영역 확장을 위해서 무선 랜과 유사한 2계층 프로토콜(1)을 사용하는 이동 애드 혹 네트워크의 인터네트워킹 기법을 (2)에서 제안하고 있다. 이 기법은 무선 랜 확장을 위한 UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems)와 무선 랜의 인터네트워킹 기법(3-4)에 비해 물리 및 논리적인 특성이 유사하기 때문에 상대적으로 낮은 오버헤드와 지연을 갖는다는 장점이 있다. 애드 흑과 무선 랜간의 인터네트워킹을 위해 (2)가 제안하고 있는 모드 변환 알고리즘은 시그널 강도만을 고려하여 핸드오프를 결정하기 때문에 상이한 시그널을 수신하는 영역에 지그재그로 이동하는 경우 빈번한 핸드오프를 야기 시킬 수 있다. 또, 무선 랜에서의 이동성 지원이 MIPv6 프로토콜을 기반으로 하고 있어서 핸드오프시 높은 지연을 갖고 시그널 메시지 교환으로 인한 오버헤드가 크다. 본 논문에서는 (2)에서 제안하는 스위칭 기법을 수정 및 보완함으로써 이동 노드가 HMIPv6를 기반으로 하고 있는 무선 랜의 범위를 벗어나 난청지역(dead-spot)에 진입했을 때 무선 랜 영역의 확장을 위해서 무선 랜과 이동 애드 혹 네트워크간의 최적화된 인터네트워킹 방안을 제안한다. (2)에서 발생할 수 있는 핸드오프 핑퐁문제를 적응적인 임계치를 반영함으로써 해결하였다. 특히, 무선 랜에서 이동성 지원을 위한 HMIPv6 프로토콜과 병립되어 사용될 수 있는 OLSR 프로토콜을 이동 애드 혹 네트워크에서 적용하였다. 총 오버헤드 시간을 구하고 실험과 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 스위칭 방식이 기존의 방식보다 성능이 우수함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose an iterative interstream interference cancellation technique for system with frequency selective multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel. Our method is inspired by the fact that the cancellation of the interstream interference can be regarded as a reduction in the magnitude of the interfering channel. We show that, as iteration goes on, the channel experienced by the equalizer gets close to the single input multiple output (SIMO) channel and, therefore, the proposed SIMO-like equalizer achieves improved equalization performance in terms of normalized mean square error. From simulations on downlink communications of $2{\times}2$ MIMO systems in high speed packet access universal mobile telecommunications system standard, we show that the proposed method provides substantial performance gain over the conventional receiver algorithms.
