This paper generally relates to the field of wireless local area networks(WLANs), and more particularly, to AP selection and association methods for the performance of a station. In these days, IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN network is widely deployed and used as an emerging service to connect high-speed Internet in the public wireless environment. But, if there are many users in hot spot area, they suffer a severe decrease of performance. Thus it needs an association and access control mechanism especially when it is used in the public environment. In this paper, we suggest a selection and association method using Beacon or Probe Response frames based IEEE 802.11. Station selects AP using the information of the capacity area in a Beacon or a Probe Response frame. According to the present paper, an association method for a public WLAN service, which includes a WLAN user terminal and an AP for relaying WLAN communications to and from the user terminal, includes the steps of the user terminal asking the AP's states for access to a radio channel; and the station selects and associates with the AP According to the above-described selection in a high speed wireless Internet service based on public WLAN technologies that are currently in operations. Further, it is possible to improve the efficiency of network management.

The number of wireless public network user is increasing rapidly. Security problem for user authentication has been increased on existing wireless network such as IEEE802.11 based Wireless LAN. As a solution, IEEE802.1x (EAP-MD5, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS), X.509, protocol or security system was suggested as a new disposal plan on this problem. In this study, we overview main problem on existing EAP-MD5 authentication mechanism on Wireless LAN and propose a SMS(Short Message Service) based secure authentication and accounting mechanism for providing security enhanced wireless network transactions.

When a hand-held device with limited battery transmits and receives data using short-range wireless communication systems, such as WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) or high speed WPAN(Wireless Personal Area Network), instead of mobile communication systems, the device is able to reduce the power consumption due to the reduced transmission distance. However, if there are many WLAN or high speed WPAN systems around the device, non-negligible power may be consumed by receiving and decoding the packets which have nothing to do with the device. In this paper, we propose a scheme reducing the power consumption by including physical-layer ID in WLAN or WPAN packets and avoiding unnecessary packet receptions. Also, we describe a method to determine the optimum number of physical-layer IDs.

In order to provide the Mobile Stations operating in IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN network with seamless handover, a comprehensive study on the functions of handover considering various networking environments and characteristics of Mobile Stations is required. Note that the channel scan process finding a new AP takes the major portion of handover time, and this is the most significant issue with seamless handover for real-time multimedia service in WLAN environment. In this paper the functions required to provide seamless handover in IEEE 802.11 WLAN network are identified, and a new scanning technique is proposed with which the Mobile Stations can selectively scan the channels to reduce the channel scan time in various network environments. Here each Mobile Station awares of the channels the neighbor APs are using by scanning them in advance according to the proposed technique. Afterwards, when handover is actually required, the optimal AP is decided quickly by scanning only the predetemined group of channels and order of scan without unnecessary scan of all the channels. In addition, proposes to enter the Scan Trigger Value and Handover Threshold Value in mobile phones in order to prevent the phenomenon can not handover.

SPWPM traditional software development is surveyed and essential problems are investigated on the basis of system wireless link considerations. This paper presents the current state software planning tools for wireless LAN link optimization. The software directory is based on combination of MatLab and MapInfo software and measurement which gives the best grouping parameters to build up the software development. Among the requirements assumed, the WLAN site selections must be Line-of-sight (LOS) or near line of sight (NLOS) field strength prediction for either point to point or point to multi points. The results obtainable the out put of the program include two-dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) plots for creating the link; design parameters through GUI representing the height and location for each antenna is depending on K-factor of the area and transmit antenna location.

In this paper, we proposed the remote visual monitoring system on mobile robot platform. The proposed system is composed of ARM9 core PXA255 processor, micro CMOS camera and wireless network and the captured visual image is transmitted via 803.11b/g wireless LAN(WLAN) for remote visual monitoring operations. Robot platform maneuvering command is transmitted via WLAN from host and the $640{\times}480$, $320{\times}240$ pixel fixed visual image is transmitted to host at the rate of $3{\sim}10$ frames per second. Experimental system is implemented on Linux OS base and tested for remote visual monitoring operation and verified the proposed objects.

Today, as wireless communications devices such as laptops, smart phones are generalized, wireless LAN has been widely installed in the corporate office conference rooms, industrial warehouses, Internet-ready classrooms, and even in a coffee shop. Though a wired network can be accessed and attacked only by the physical penetration, the wireless network which can be accessed anywhere within the reach of anyone has relative vulnerability by unauthorized users' attack. To defend these vulnerabilities, the introduction of WIDS / WIPS is required. In this paper, we recognize the limitations of WLAN security technology, review the current technology trends and propose the solutions in the future security problems.

As quantities of the data that transmitting by the wireless are more increased, the interest and application are extending about 802.11n that uses by combination two existing 20MHz wireless LAN Channel. 802.11n use dual band of 2.4GHz band and 5.8GHz. So this is expected in mass wireless transmission method because of interference evasion effect in compliance with the radio communication of existing 2GHz neighborhood band. Like this 802.11n uses the radio as well and transmits information there is not only a possibility of undergoing an influence in radio wave environment of circumference. Specially the interior environment and outdoor environment is a possibility of saying that will be defined with each other different modeling as affects in radio communication is different. In this paper, we'll compare the influence to RF feature (802.11n) by (Indoor/Outdoor) environment difference through compared with 802.11n RF feature and Network feature in (Indoor/Outdoor) environment and also examine the correlation between RF feature and Network feature.

Link Adaptation should select the best modulation and coding scheme (MCS) which gives the highest throughput as channel conditions vary. Several link adaptation algorithms for wireless local area network (WLAN) have been proposed but for the future WLAN systems such as 802.11n system, these algorithms do not guarantee the best performance. In this paper, we propose a new link adaptation algorithm in which an MCS level is chosen by the received SNR plus the offset value obtained from the transmission results. The performance of proposed algorithm is simulated by an IEEE 802.11n system. From the analysis, we conclude the proposed algorithm performs better than the well-known link adaptation algorithms such as auto rate fallback and general SNR-based techniques. Particularly, the proposed algorithm improves throughput when the packet error ratio (PER) is constrained for fast fading channels.
