The IEEE 802.1x standard provides an architectural framework which can be used various authentication methods. But, IEEE 802.1x also has vulnerabilities about the DoS(Denial of Service), the session hijacking and the MiM(Man in the Middle) attack due to caused by structural of authentication protocol. In this paper, we propose a WLAN system which can offer safety communication by complement of IEEE 802.1x vulnerabilities. The WLAN system accomplishes mutual authentications between authentication servers, clients and the AP using PKI and prevents an illegal user from intervening in communication to disguise oneself as a client, the AP or authentication servers. Also, we guarantee the safety of the communication by the Dynamic WEP key distribution between clients and the AP.

Recently the mobile IPTV service has been spread through the wireless LAN(WLAN). In order to provide the commercial mobile IPTV service through the WLAN, re-authentication for the mobile IPTV terminal is required whenever the mobile terminal roams between APs(Access Points). The most popular one of the authentication protocol standards for the wired and/or wireless LAN is IEEE 802.1X. However IEEE 802.1X takes much time to authenticate the terminal and is not adequate for the seamless mobile IPTV service. We introduce the session key and separate the user authentication and the hardware authentication. And we strengthen the device authentication by the initial registration. By these, the proposed authentication protocol reduces the authentication time and can protect the authentication key securely.

The hand over between different radio access networks, especially where their coverage overlaps, suffers various complications since the different access networks provide different service characteristics. In this paper, it is about the system which can control the wireless LAN network management system and the wireless LAN access point of variety vendor which is in different areas. Successful development of mobile sink wireless LAN network management system which supports multi-vendor devices and have center-local interoperability structure. In proposed system, speed of the mobile station give about 10% improvement when the map domain size is 5 than the existing system. Through a data plane and management system of message way, it give a stability system and consistency network.

The design and fabrication of Q-band 3-stage monolithic microwave integrated circuit(MMIC) amplifier for WLAN are presented using 0.2$\square$ AIGaAs/lnGaAs/GaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (PHEMT). In each stage of the MMIC, a negative feedback is used for both broadband and good stability. The measurement results are achieved as an input return loss under -4dB, an output return loss under -10dB, a gain of 14dB, and a PldB of 17dBm at Q-band(36～44GHz). These results closely match with design results. The chip size is 2.8${\times}$1.3mm$^2$. This MMIC amplifier will be used as the unit cell to develop millimeter-wave transmitters for use in wideband wireless LAN systems.

WLAN(wireless local area network)-based positioning is the most attractive because it does not require any special equipments dedicated for positioning even though it is less accurate than the other strategies. Applying our WLAN-based decision tree method for indoor positioning, we obtained pedestrian's tracks, and performed stochastic confidence tests on the tracks in order to validate them.

This paper describes a baseband analog (BBA) chain for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. For the given specifications of the receiver BBA chain, the optimum allocation of the gain and filter rejection of each block in a BBA chain is achieved to maximize the SFDR. The fully integrated BBA chain is fabricated in 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS technology. An input-referred third-order intercept point (IIP3) of 22.9 dBm at a gain of 0.5 dB and an input-referred noise voltage (IRN) of 32.2 nV/${\surd}$Hz at a gain of 63.3 dB are obtained. By optimizing the allocation of the gain and filter rejection using the proposed design methodology, an excellent SFDR performance of 63.9 dB is achieved with a power consumption of 12 mW.

High-speed WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) systems operating in 5GHz band use OFDM transmission technique. OFDM technique transmits data in parallel and has many advantage compared with the serial transmission system-for example, robustness to time variance of channel. OFDM technique use the orthogonal multicarriers. The ICI(InterChannel Interference) caused by the orthogonality destruction between subcarriers. hamper the BER performance. In this paper, we propose the synchronization techniques for high-speed WLAN system designed to support user data rates up to 54Mbps at 5GHz. The proposed synchronization techniques are the reduced complexity structure having the similar performance compared with the conventional synchronization techniques.

In recent year, the popularity of WLAN has generated much interests on improvement and performance analysis of the IEEE 802.11 protocol. In this paper, we analyze two medium access methods of the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol by investigating the MAC layer packet service times when arrival packet sizes have a general probability distribution. We use the M/G/1/K queueing model to analyze the throughput and the delay performance of IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol in a wireless LAN. We compare the performances of Basic access method and RTS/CTS access method. We take some numerical examples for the system throughput and the queue dynamics including the mean packet delay and packet blocking probability.

Mutual Interference scenarios between Wireless Broadband (WiBro) and Wireless LAN (WLAN) in DTV bands are assumed. Co-channel interference and adjacent channel interference are respectively evaluated in terms of carrier to interference ratio (C/I) by using Spectrum Engineering Advanced Monte Carlo Analysis Tool (SEAMCAT) based on the Monte-Carlo simulation method. For the simulation, three frequencies such as 185 MHz, 481 MHz and 687 MHz are chosen. Analysis results indicate that interference situation of using frequency of 185 MHz is the worst case, which requires longer protection distance between WiBro MS and WLAN User Equipment (UE), lower transmit power of WiBro Mobile Station (MS) and WiBro Base Station (BS) and WLAN UE and larger guard band. Comparing to cases of using frequency of 185 MHz and 481 MHz, interference situation of using frequency of 687 MHz is slighter. Therefore, using frequency of 687 MHz is easier for coexistence between WiBro and WLAN. Analysis results can be used as reference and guideline when planning the deployment of WiBro and WLAN in DTV bands.
