In the Policy and Charging Control(PCC) architecture of the 3GPP and WiMAX forum, the Policy and Charging Rule Function(PCRF) controls and configures the policies of quality of services(QoS) and accounting to a Policy and Charging Rule Enforcement Function(PCEF). In this paper, we categorize the errors into three types that include a disconnection with peer entity, a delayed or no response and a response with failure result, and propose a scheme to automatically synchronize the data between the PCRF and the PCEF for each type of error. Also, we conduct a quantitative analysis to see how much it can help to maintain the cell capacity of the mobile VoIP service in a WiBro network, which is implemented in Korea according to the standards of WiMAX. We can see that our proposed scheme improves the performances of PCC by preventing the waste of radio resources, the overload of systems, the memory leakage of servers, the system shutdown, and so on. We have validated the scheme by implementation, and reflected it in WiMAX standard documents.

Wi-Fi is a technology that has become an essential part of our lives, and not simply a convenience. Wi-Fi is mainly used indoors and is evolving in terms of an increase in the transmission speed and expanded coverage. 802.11ac Wi-Fi, operating at 5 GHz, and 802.11ad Wi-Fi, operating at 60 GHz, were standardized in the same year, 2012, as a gigabit-transmission speed Wi-Fi technology. In this article, we examine the current status of the Wi-Fi market trends and present the possibility of the development of 60 GHz Wi-Fi and future market prospects.

Recently, the Wi-Fi Direct standard based on WLAN is getting more attention as a new technology for enabling D2D(Devide-to-Device) communications on mobile devices. However, due to limited power resource of mobile devices and, an energy inefficiency problem can be an issue. In order to solve this problem, the Wi-Fi Direct defines two power management schemes: Opportunistic scheme and Notice of Absence(NoA) scheme. However, there is no concrete description of which power management scheme would be better for when. In this paper, via comprehensive simulation studies using ns-3, we show that each scheme presents obviously different performance and energy efficiency according to data traffic patterns. We then propose more energy efficient way of dynamically switching the two power management schemes.

Wi-Fi STAs in power saving mode described in the Wi-Fi specification can deteriorate the system performance such as throughput, time delay when they receive data frames from a Wi-Fi AP. This problem is caused by data frame reception failure due to the channel state, and it increases re-transmissions. In this paper, we propose a modified power saving mode of Wi-Fi system in order to solve the problem. Also, we evaluate its performance in terms of throughput and time delay by simulation.

Using the repeaters is indispensable to WiBro services. Repeater types are distinguished by usage, output power and required performance. In the paper, we have studied on the WiBro digital optic repeater design which has excellent performance characteristic than any other repeaters. WiBro has specific characteristic on modulation method TDD(Time Division Duplex)/OFDMA(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) so that it demands specified H/W to design WiBro repeater. Switching technique has been introduced because of TDD characteristic in each amplifier on the repeater. Time Advance technique has been considered because of OFDM characteristic among RAS(Radio Access Station) and repeater. In this paper, we have studied on these techniques to increase repeater cell coverage and distance between RAS and repeater.

In this study, we investigated the antioxidative and antiaging activity of Perilla frutescens using LLC-$PK_1$ porcine renal epithelial cell and WI-38 human diploid fibroblast cell. The extract from Perilla frutescens showed strong protective effect against nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide ($O_2{^-}$)-induced oxidative stress generated by sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and pyrogallol, respectively. The result showed that P. frutescens increased the cell viability and showed scavenging activity of NO and $O_2{^-}$. In addition, the extract of P. frutescens exerted the protective effect against peroxynitrite ($ONOO^-$) induced by 3-morpholinosydnonimine. It suggests that P. frutescens would have the protective role against $ONOO^-$ itself and its precursors, NO and $O_2{^-}$. Furthermore, the aging model of hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$)-treated WI-38 human diploid fibroblast was employed to investigate the anti-aging effect of P. frutescens. $H_2O_2$-treated WI-38 cells showed the loss of cell viability, however before-treatment with P. frutescens to WI-38 cells under premature senescence could delay the cellular aging process. The present study suggests the antioxidative and antiaging potential against free radical-induced oxidative damage of P. frutescens.

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.

The primary culture of human nasal epithelial cells was performed using the inferior nasal turbinate tissues, and infected with Hantaan virus to examine the hypothesis of airborne transmission of Hantaan virus in humans. The primary culture cells were identified as epithelial cells by morphologic and immunologic analyses. The viral antigens were detected in the primary human nasal epithelial cells infected with Hantaan virus by immunofluorescence staining. The ICAM-1 induction by Hantaan virus or $IFN-{\gamma}$ was examined in the primary human nasal epithelial cells and human lung fibroblasts (WI-38). Hantaan virus induced the surface ICAM-1 in WI-38 cells in a time-dependent manner, and $IFN-{\gamma}$ induced the surface ICAM-1 in a dose-dependent manner in HNEC and WI-38 cells. These results revealed that the human nasal epithelial cells are susceptible to Hantaan viral infection supporting the hypothesis of airborne transmission of Hantaan virus in humans. The human lung fibroblasts also might have an important role in the pathogenesis of Hantaan virus through the induction of ICAM-1.

We have described a high power hybrid envelope elimination and restoration(H-EER) transmitter for IEEE 802.16e Mobile World Interoperability for Microwave Access(WiMAX) using an efficiency optimized power amplifier(PA). The PA has been designed to have maximum PAE at the important power generation $V_{ds}$, region using Nitronex 100-W PEP GaN HEMT. For the high power application, H-EER transmitter should be considered the regenerative oscillation problem due to the PA's bias fluctuation effect and bias modulator stability issue. Therefore, the bias modulator for H-EER transmitter has been designed to suppress the regenerative oscillation. For the interlock experiment, the bias modulator has been built with the efficiency of 72% and peak output voltage of 30 V for the envelope signal with a PAPR of 8.5 dB. The H-EER transmitter for WiMAX application has been achieved a high PAE characteristic, 38.8 % at an output power of 41.25 dBm. By using digital predistortion(DPD) technique, the Relative Constellation Error (RCE) has been satisfied the specification of -34.5 dB. This is the first work at 2.655 GHz high power H-EER transmitter for WiMAX application.
