WiBro technology provide mobile devices with a transmission speed of more than 1 Mbps even under the condition of high mobility (120 km/h). In a building, however, there is more demand for high bandwidth for various activities, and WiBro services may not be available. In order to guaranteeing a seamless service continuity and high transmission capability for mobile users within a specific establishment that has deployed WiBro network, we should secure an internetworking platform for WiBro and WiFi networks. This paper introduces WiMax forum and 3GPP standards, proposes WiBro-WiFi Interworking (WWI) architecture, its implementation details, and finally verifies validity of the proposal by using OPNet simulations.

Recently, research on indoor locating techniques using smart device sensors has been conducted actively, Owing to the exponential increase in the use of various smart devices. However, in order to develop indoor location techniques, there are limitations due to the requirement that the tracking system has to function without GPS. In this paper, we propose an accurate indoor locating system that does not require additional infrastructure. The proposed scheme is developed based on the idea that the advantages and disadvantages of "Wi-Fi Fingerprinting" and "Step Detection" techniques are complementary. In the proposed scheme, we track users with "Step Detection," and correct errors with "Wi-Fi Fingerprinting." In this paper, we demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of our proposed scheme through experiments.

This paper addresses issues associated with the real-time implementation of a wideband speech codec such as ITU-T G. 729. 1 on an ARM processor in order to provide an improved voice quality of a VoWiFi service. The real-time implementation features in optimizing the C-source code of G.729. 1 and replacing several parts of the codec algorithm with faster ones. The performance of the implementation is measured by the CPU time spent for G.729.1 on the ARM926EJ processor that is used for a VoWiFi phone. It is shown from the experiments that the G.729.1 codec works in real-time with better voice quality than G 729 codec that is conventionally used for VoIP or VoWiFi phones.

In this paper, we studied several aspects that affect the quality of VoIP using WiFi network. It's clear that the background data traffic within an AP, the end-to-end delay and the traffic loss of TCP/IP network gives serious effects on the voice quality. A kind of access control for the VoIP connection within an AP should be done for the acceptable voice quality.

Wi-Fi P2P는 Wi-Fi Alliance에 의해 제정된 표준 규격으로 근접 거리에 위치한 장치들간의 효율적이고 빠른 데이터 송수신을 위해 IEEE 802.11n을 이용하고 있다. 근접거리 통신을 위한 기존 블루투스 등의 규격이 갖는 단점을 보완했다는 점에 있어 높은 평가를 받고 있으며, 모바일 디바이스용 플랫폼인 Android ICS 버전부터 공식적으로 지원됨에 따라 널리 사용될 것으로 전망된다. 한편, 한국전자통신연구원(ETRI)에서는 오랫동안 PAN 수준의 네트워킹을 연구해왔으며 그 일환으로 PAN 및 M2M에 적합한 통신 수단으로 여겨지는 Wi-Fi P2P에 대한 연구도 진행 중에 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 ETRI가 과제를 수행하면서 부수적으로 연구한 Wi-Fi P2P를 위한 Linux용 플랫폼 구조를 공유하고자 한다. 특히 Linux Wireless 프로젝트인 hostap에 속한 wpa_supplicant를 이용해 실제로 동작하는 Wi-Fi P2P 커넥션 매니저를 설계하고 구현하는 방법을 설명함으로써 Android 플랫폼이 아닌 일반적인 Linux 장치에서 Wi-Fi P2P를 사용할 수 있는 방법에 대해 논한다.

Wi-Fi provides some low-power connection solutions that other Bluetooth cannot provide, and at the same time brings many benefits. First, there is a potentially higher data rate: it can reach 230mbps. Wi-Fi coverage is also wider than competitors, and its operating frequency is also 5GHz, which is much less congested than 2.4GHz. Finally, it also supports IP networks, which is important if you want to send data to the cloud without complexity. The 802.11ac standard of the previous generation still accounts for most shipments (80.9%) and revenue (76.2%). However, there is a limit to accepting IoT devices that will continue to increase significantly in the future. To solve this problem, the new Wi-Fi 6 standard is expected to be the solution (IEEE 802.11ax) which is quickly becoming the main driving force of the wireless local area network (WLAN) market. According to IDC market research analysts, in the first quarter of 2020, independent access points (APs) supported by Wi-Fi 6 accounted for 11.8% of shipments, but 21.8% of revenue. In this paper, we have compared and analyzed the IoT connectivity, QoS, and security requirements of devices using Wi-Fi 6 network.

Ships built today are larger in scale and feature more complex structures. The ever-evolving systems used on board a ship require vast amounts of data processing. In the future, with the advent of smart ships, unmanned ships and other next-generation ships, the volumes of data to be processed will continue to increase. Yet, to date, ship data has been processed using wired networks. Placed at fixed locations, the nodes on wired networks often fail to process data from mobile devices. Despite many attempts made to use Wi-Fi on ships just as on land to create wireless networks, Wi-Fi has hardly been available due to the complex metal structures of ships. Therefore, Wi-Fi on ships has been patchy as the ship-wide total Wi-Fi coverage has not properly implemented. A new ship-wide wireless network environment is part of the technology conducive to the shipbuilding industry. The wireless network environment should not only serve the purpose of communication but also be able to manage and control multiple features in real-time: fault diagnostics, tracking, accident prevention and safety management. To better understand the characteristics of wireless frequencies for ships, this paper tests the widely used TETRA, UHF and Wi-Fi and sheds light on the features, advantages and disadvantages of each technology in ship settings. The proposed deployment of a Super Wi-Fi network leveraging the legacy UHF system of TMS generates a ship-wide wireless network environment. The experimental findings corroborate the feasibility of the proposed ship-wide Super Wi-Fi network environment.

This study investigates the effectiveness of Jeju's public Wi-Fi policy for which the key factors of public Wi-Fi use and location characteristics are analyzed. Spatial regression analysis was conducted within a 100 m radius of public Wi-Fi access points. In the analysis, the dependent variable was public Wi-Fi usage time while independent variables included demographic factors, location factors, and other factors. The findings reveal that demographic factors such as the number of residents, the number of workers, and the number of visitors had a close correlation with the use of public Wi-Fi. In addition, the number of bus stops and land prices of each parcel, land use mix, and AP installation period had a positive correlation with the use of public Wi-Fi. On the contrary, the number of buildings by use, the total floor area of buildings, and the number of tourist attractions had negative correlations with public Wi-Fi usage time. These findings provide policy implications that more active publicity on Jeju's public Wi-Fi is needed and the convenience for access needs to be improved.

Smart phones become popular all over the world recently. At the same time, demand of various additional services, such as SNS by utilizing low-cost reliable Wi-Fi network and position information, is expected to keep growing. In this paper, Implementation of SNS based on an Open Wi-Fi & Position Information was proposed. This service is achieved by constructing an Open Wi-Fi network based on a built AP access information database. And in order to provide durable connection in mobile environment, RSS detect AP switching module and mobile IP are utilized in the proposed service. Furthermore, with the utilization of GPS information of AP, AP providers could delivery various information such as advertisements, promotion events. In addition, it is possible for AP users to communicate with each other, thus a position information based SNS was also proposed in this paper.
