The demand of remote control and monitoring for efficiency and applications of LED streetlight is increasing continuously because the demand of LED streetlight was increase last few years. Existing street light remote control system is wired using a power line network. The wireless connection exists, but due to its low data transmission rate, it cannot support specialized applications. It can only support simple control and monitoring. In this paper, we propose a system that uses a IEEE 802.11s wireless mesh network based on WLAN, as a backbone network for remote control and monitoring of the LED street lights along with other specialized applications. Using the wireless mesh network for remote control and monitoring the LED street lights, the same can be used to act like a public Wi-Fi access point. We have designed Wi-Fi integrated LED streetlight controller and implemented our system. We evaluated the performance of our system on a real test bed. Our proposed system is expected to perform the role of a U-city infrastructure by utilizing the wireless mesh network.

Ultra-wide-angle wireless endoscopes are demonstrated in this paper. The endoscope is composed of an ultra-wide-angle camera module and wireless transmission module. A lens unit with the ultra-wide FOV of 162 degrees is designed and manufactured. The lens, image sensor, and camera processor unit are packaged together in a $3{\times}3{\times}9-cm3$ case. The wireless transmission modules are implemented based on UWB- and WiFi-based platform, respectively. The UWB-based module can transmit HD video to a computer in resolution of $2048{\times}1536$ (QXGA) and the frame rate of 15 fps in MJPEG compression mode. The maximum data transfer rate reaches 41.2 Mbps. The FOV and the resolution of the endoscope is comparable to a medical-grade endoscope. The FOV and resolution is ~3X and 16X higher than that of a commercial high-performance WiFi endoscope, respectively. The WiFi-based module streams out video to a smart device with th maximum date transfer rate of 1.5 Mbps at the resolution of $640{\times}480$ (VGA) and the frame rate of 30 fps in MJPEG compression mode. The implemented components show the feasibility of cheap medical-grade wireless electronic endoscopes, which can be effectively used in u-healthcare, emergency treatment, home-healthcare, remote diagnosis, etc.

As ESL(Electronic Shelf Label) system is increased at the market in the world, the interference between ESL system and Wi-Fi(Wireless Fidelity) Cellular Phone at 2.4GHz becomes issue. The interference scenario and propagation of the Extended HATA Model were established to analyze the interference from Wi-Fi Cellular Phone into ESL system. Through simulation results based on SEAMCAT(Spectrum Engineering Advanced Monte Carlo Analysis Tool), separation distance was obtained to protect ESL system from Wi-Fi Cellular Phone interference.

In this paper, we design a Wibro / WiFi dual band microstrip antenna for wireless broadband communication. The proposed antenna is designed to have the characteristics of FR-4 (er = 4.3), size of $40[mm]{\times}40[mm]$, and usable in 2.31[GHz] and 5.8[GHz] bands of Wibro / WiFi. The simulation is performed by CST Microwave Studio 2014 The simulation result shows that the gain is 2.308[dB] at 2.31[GHz] and 2.985[dB] at 5.8[GHz]. S-parameters were also found to be less than -10[dB] (WSWR2: 1) in the desired frequency band, and a small number of parameters and a compact antenna were designed. It is expected that many users will use the mobile communication antenna for accurate and fast communication for smooth wireless broadband communication.

Due to the appearance of various mobile terminals like smartphone, smartpad, and smartwatch and tremendous development of WiFi technology, data utilization rate on WiFi network is significantly increasing. As a result, users are wanting to use WiFi network using only a simple identification at a visited place as if they are at their home institute. In this paper, we review the domestic status of eduroam service which supports global extension of wireless network access environment and present the future development perspective of the service in Korea. Besides, we shed light on the current status of WiFi sharing service between domestic universities and propose some methods to facilitate the join of domestic universities in eduroam service.

Due to advances in wireless communications and portable terminals, any-time, any-where, and any-device Internet access is possible. In particular, Internet access in moving vehicles is an emerging and challenging issue. Even though a variety studies have been conduced for vehicular networks, little attention is paid to vehicular Wi-Fi networks where a Wi-Fi access point (AP) is installed at the vehicle and the AP is connected to an external base station (BS). In this paper, we conduct a measurement study on the uplink and downlink throughput for Internet access in vehicular Wi-Fi networks. We consider diverse network environments: high-speed train, car, and subway. Measurement results demonstrate that current Internet access in vehicular Wi-Fi networks are not satisfactory for interactive multimedia applications. Therefore, in-depth study on resource management in vehicular Wi-Fi networks is strongly required.

LTE and Wi-Fi networks provide wireless communication services to passengers in subway where the number of network access fluctuates according to passenger movement. While the number of network access increase, LTE can provide stable communication service but Wi-Fi suffers temporal access delay to network. This paper analyzes the increase in access delay of Wi-Fi network according to increasing user in subway section by making mathematical modeling of Wi-Fi network and simulation study. The access delay characteristics of Wi-Fi network is measured along an subway line and the results are compared to the theoretical study. These results can be applied to the connection method to build an efficient network structure between LTE and Wi-Fi interworking network and the future introduction of LTE-R.

With the development of water internet technology, data communication between objects is expanding. Research related to data communication technology between vehicles that incorporates related technologies into vehicles has been actively conducted. For data communication between mobile terminals, data stability, reliability, and real-time performance must be guaranteed. The 5 GHz Wi-Fi band, which is advantageous in bandwidth, communications speed, and wireless saturation of the wireless network, was selected as the data communications network between vehicles. This study analyzes how to design and implement a 5 GHz Wi-Fi network in a vehicle network. Considering the characteristics of the mobile communication terminal device, a continuous variable communications structure is proposed to enable high-speed data switching. We simplify the access point access procedure to reduce the latency between wireless terminals. By limiting the Transmission Control Protocol Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)-based Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server function and implementing it in a broadcast transmission protocol method, communication delay between terminal devices is improved. Compared to the general commercial Wi-Fi communication method, the connection operation and response speed have been improved by five seconds or more. Utilizing this method can be applied to various types of event data communication between vehicles. It can also be extended to wireless data-based intelligent road networks and systems for autonomous driving.

무선랜(Wireless LAN)으로도 불리는 Wi-Fi 기술은 1997년 IEEE 802.11 전송 규격(Legacy Standard)이 출간된 이후 지속적인 보완과 개정 작업을 통해 그 규격이 발전되어 가며 스마트폰, Tablet, Note-PC 등 개인 휴대 단말 기기를 위한 데이터 네트워크의 필수적인 구성 요소가 되었다. IEEE 표준과 별도로 표준 인증기관인 Wi-Fi Alliance를 통하여 제품 간 무선연결 호환성의 확보 뿐 아니라 Wi-Fi 기반 서비스 규격 제정에 이르기까지 Wi-Fi 표준 작업이 수행되고 있다. 본고에서는 나날이 발전해 온 Wi-Fi 기술 표준을 전송 속도 향상 측면과 주파수 대역 확장 측면에서 살펴보고, 차세대 Wi-Fi 기술인 IEEE 802.11ax, 즉 HEW(High Efficiency WLAN) 표준에 대하여 살펴보도록 한다.
