In this paper, we have shown the performance analysis results of the LoRa low power wide area network under duty cycle local regulation in Korean RFID/USN frequency band. Especially, we analyzed uplink throughput and data transmission time of a single LoRa end device. From the analysis results, duty cycle regulation, in which a data transmission should be ended within 0.4 second, limits the performance of LoRa network. Therefore, it is necessary to revise Korea's duty cycle regulation referencing EU regulation in order to assess LoRa network in Korea.

As wireless communication technology advances to ensure high accuracy and safety at high speeds, research and development of Visible Light Communication (VLC) technology has been accelerated as an alternative to traditional radio frequency (RF) technology. As the radio spectrum of RF communication becomes more congested and demand for bandwidth continues to increase, VLCs that can use unlicensed frequency band are proposed as a solution. However, VLC channels have broadcasting characteristics that make them easily exposed to eavesdropping and jamming attacks, and are vulnerable to MITM (Man-In-The-Middle) due to their line of sight (LOS) propagation characteristics. These attacks on VLC channels compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of communications links and data, resulting in higher data retransmission rates, reducing throughput and increasing power consumption, resulting in lower data transmission efficiency. In this work, we model vulnerable VLC channels to analyze the impact of attacks and communications vulnerabilities by malicious jammers.

CubeSats are being utilized in various fields such as Earth observation, space exploration, and verification of space science and technology due to their low cost, short development period, enhanced mission-oriented performance, and ability to perform various missions through constellation and formation flights. Recently, as the availability of CubeSats has increased and their application areas have expanded, the demand for high-speed transmission of large amounts of data obtained by CubeSats has increased unprecedentedly. Laser-based free space optical communication technology is capable of transmitting large amounts of data at high speeds compared to the existing radio communication methods, and provides various advantages such as use of unlicensed spectrum, low cost, low power, high security characteristics, and of use a small communication platform. For this reason, it is suitable as a high-performance communication technology to support CubeSat missions. In this paper, we will present the core components and characteristics of CubeSat-based space laser communication system, and recent research trends, as well as representative technology development results.
