In this paper, we have proposed the optimum technique for wireless ATM (WATM) error control in indoor environment. As the optimum technique, the conventional concatenated FEC only is regarded as the efficient error control method for time-critical ATM traffic in AWGN, and the pilot symbol-added fading compensation with the concatenated FEC is required to optimize the WATM performance in fading environment. Also, the truncated Type- H hybrid ARQ technique will be developed for quality-critical ATM traffic in order to improve its throughput. Therefore, this paper presents the optimization of WATM performance in indoor environment by means of evaluating above techniques using theoretical analysis and simulation.

We have been derived theoretically the SER's and CLP's of Wireless ATM (WATM) cells employing an OFDM/16QAM modulation scheme in wireless channel modeled as a frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel. The amount of the performance improvement of WATM- OFDM/16QAM systems adopting various coding techniques has been evaluated. In frequency selective Rayleigh fading channel, considering CLP : $10^{-3}$ as a criterion, it is observed that the performance improvement of about 14 dB is obtained in terms of $E_b/N_o$ by employing an OFDM scheme. It is also confirmed that convolutional coding technique gives better performance than the other coding techniques. Especially, when the convolutional codes are adopted to WATM-OFDM/16QAM systems, voice transmission services are sufficiently available with 5 dB of $E_b/N_o$.

This paper describes a new fading compensation scheme for Wireless ATM(WATM) sytem using pilot symbols. We have carried out a simulation for bit error rate(BER) and cell loss probability(CLP) to analyze the performance of a new scheme. As the resutls, BER performance we improved by means of HEC only above 3 dB of $E_{b}/N_{0}$ in AWGN, but not at all in fading environment. However, by using a new fading compenstion scheme with HEC, BER performance degraded below to 1 dB of $E_{b}/N_{0}$ in AWGN, but BER and CLP performances in WATM system were improved remarkably, and meeted at CLP performance criterion for K=10 dB rician fading. Also, code rate will be high and harware size of codec will be small by using this new scheme with HEC OR FEC.

최근 통신환경의 급속한 발전과 함께 점점 복잡 다양해지는 사회적 요구에 의해 유선망을 무선환경으로 옮겨 가기 위한 많은 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Frame Relay 망과 WATM 백본 망라의 연동 환경을 제안하였고, 이 망에서 Frame Relay 망의 이동으로 인하여 발생하는 망의 이동성 지원 방안과 QoS를 보장하는 단말들의 멀티 핸드오버를 효율적으로 지원하기 위한 G-CAC알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 G-CAC알고리즘은 망 단위의 이동환경에서 Frame Relay의 트래픽 특성, DE/CLP 맵핑 , 트래픽 파라미터 변환 방식을 이용하여 핸드오버 블락킹 율과 손실 율을 감소시킨다. 또한 여러 Frame Relay 망과 통신하고 있는 백본의 WATM에서는 다른 Frame Relay망들의 할당된 자원 중에 CLP비트가 세트된 셀들을 드롭하여 그 자원을 새로운 핸드오버를 요청하는 Frame Relay망에 접합된 WATM에 제공하는 QoS를 고려한 핸드오버 CAC(connection admission control)알고리즘을 제안한다.

In this paper, the performances of MC-CDMA systems for wireless ATM(WATM) is analyzed through computer simulations. The proposed MC-CDMA systems can support the 25 Mbps data rate with about 18.2 MHz bandwidth at 5 GHz carrier frequency, satisfying the specifications of wireless physical layer proposed by Wireless ATM Working Group(WATM WG). For the channel coding strategies, convolutional code, TCM and Turbo TCM(T-TCM) are explored and their performances are compared. From the simulation results, T-TCM becomes superior to the other coding schemes as interative decoding is performed.

WATM(Wireless ATM)에서의 매체접근제어(Medium Access Control)는 QoS를 보장하기 위해 다양한 방식들이 제안되어 왔다. 현재까지 제안되어 온 매체접근제어 방식들은 시분할 다중화 방식 (TDMA)과 예약경쟁방식을 주로 사용하고 있다. 이때 활용되는 기능에는 QoS를 보장하기 위해 통계적 다중화, 스케쥴링 또는 예약 방식 등이 있는데 경쟁 방식은 아직까지 slotted-ALOHA를 그대로 사용하고 있다. Slotted-ALOHA방식의 단점을 개선하기 위하여 통계적 방식으로 경쟁을 제어하거나 물리적 방식으로 경쟁을 분리시켜 그 효율을 향상 시켜왔으나 우선 순위가 같은 이동국들이 많을 경우에는 해결할 방법이 없었다. 이러한 문제점들은 기지국 중심의 경쟁방식이라는 점이 그 문제를 해결하는데 있어서의 걸림돌이다. 본 논문에서는 이미 슬롯을 할당받은 동료 이동국에게 예약요청을 피기백킹(piggybacking)함으로써 신속하게 슬롯을 할당을 받을 수 있는 분산 경쟁방식을 제안한다.

Wireless ATM(WATM) intends to provide a broad range of mobile multimedia services through wireless access by mobility extensions from the fixed ATM-based network. Recently, there have been active researches about new handover techniques to support terminal mobility in WATM. In this paper we classify path reestablishment schemes into full reestablishment, path rerouting with a static COS, path rerouting with a dynamic COS, and path extension. For a backward lossy handover procedure, we analyze and compare the performances of path reestablishment schemes in terms of delay, service disruption time and cell loss.

In this paper we focus on dynamic reservation slot allocation scheme for supporting QoS of a voice traffic in WATM MAC. Especially, voice traffic is the most important real-time object, and so we propose a new MAC protocol for voice traffic over WATM networks in the multimedia environment. According to the characteristics of voice traffic which is repeatedly in silent state and active state, new protocol allocates reservation slots dynamically with respect to the number of silent voice source of which starting time is stored to the state table in base station (BS). The simulation results show that the proposed protocol has better performance than slotted ALOHA in average access delay, collision rate, better than NC-PRMA(Non Collision Packet Reservation Multiple Access) in band width efficiency, and can provide a certain level of QoS requirement by the given slot assignment even though the number of voice terminals is increased.

In wireless ATM network, Mobile terminals must offer function and QoS such as terminal of wire ATM network. The fast notification of BS (Base Station) scheduler about ATM cells arriving in mobile terminals is a critical item of the ATM-based centrally controlled MAC protocol. But, Collision is arisen at process that several mobile terminals require data transmission by contention method through uplink and because of re-transmission by collision, throughput of decrease and transmission delay increases. In this paper, We propose the MAC protocol that decide optimized request mini-slot's number considering number of request terminal predicted as statistical and its posterior throughput. According to simulation result, could know that proposed protocol shows high performance delay and throughput.

The voice traffic is one of the most important real-time objects in WATM(Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode) networks. In this paper, we propose a new MAC(Medium Access'Control) protocol for the efficienttransmission of voice traffic over WATM networks in the multimedia environment and compare the performanceto existing similar protocols. The new protocol separates the reservation slot period for voice and that for data toguarantee some level of QoS(Quality of Service) in voice traffic. This is denoted by a slot assignment functiondepending on the frame size. According to the characteristics of voice traffic which is repeatedly in silent states,the protocol allocates voice reservation request slots dynamically with respect to the number of silent(off state)voice sources and also sends the first block of talkspurt restarted after silent period with a reservation requestslot to reduce the access delay.The simulation results show that the proposed protocol has better performance than Slotted Aloha in bandwidthefficiency, and can serve a certain level of QoS by the given slot assignment function even when the number ofvoice terminals varies dynamically. This means we can observe that the new MAC protocol is much better thanthe NC-PRMA(None Collision-Packet Reservation Multiple Access) protocol.
