In recent years, many mobile wireless communication devices and applications have been deployed on the planet. The mobile multi-hop wireless network models appeared to provide means to access to networks where few infrastructure exists. However, the mobile multi-hop wireless networks have weaker points in attacks and intrusions than the wired and one-hop wireless networks. In this paper, the secure routing issues in most mobile multi-hop wireless network models are surveyed in depth. The state-of-the-art technologies and research activities are explained. Finally, the issues and technologies for the secure routing specific to a maritime network model are sufficiently discussed as conclusions.

Recently, due to the prevalence of various mobile devices and wireless broadband networks, there has been a significant increase in interest and demand for multimedia streaming services such as the mobile IPTV. In such a wireless broadband network, transmitting a continuous stream of multimedia data is difficult to achieve due to mobile stations (MSs) movement. Providing Quality of Service (QoS) for multimedia video streaming applications requires the server and/or client to be network-aware and adaptive. Therefore, in order to deploy a mobile IPTV service in wireless broadband networks, offering users efficient wireless resource utilization and seamlessly offering user perceived QoS are important issues. In this paper, we propose a new adaptive streaming scheme, called MARC (Mobile-aware Adaptive Rate Control), which adjusts the quality of bit-stream and transmission rate of video streaming based on the wireless channel status and network status. The proposed scheme can control the rate of multimedia streaming to be suitable for the wireless channel status by using awareness information of the wireless channel quality and the mobile station location. The proposed scheme can provide a seamless multimedia playback service in wireless broadband networks in addition to improving the QoS of multimedia streaming services. The proposed MARC scheme alleviates the discontinuity of multimedia playback and allocates a suitable client buffer to the wireless broadband network. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed scheme.

최근 스마트 폰, 스마트 패드와 같은 모바일 디바이스의 발전과 무선 네트워크 및 이동통신 네트워크의 발전으로 모바일 디바이스를 이용하는 서비스는 증가하고 있다. 그러나 무선 네트워크는 유선 네트워크에 비해 보안에 취약하므로 보다 강한 보안의 적용이 필요한 반면 배터리 기반의 모바일 디바이스는 낮은 계산 능력과 메모리 공간의 제약 및 무선통신에 사용되는 비용이 높기 때문에 보안의 적용은 효율적이어야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 모바일 디바이스를 이용한 서비스에서 요구되는 보안 요구사항을 충족시키고 모바일 환경에 적합한 티켓 기반의 인증 기법을 제안한다.

In mobile multi-hop wireless networks, the authentication between a base station and a mobile multi-hop node, between multi-hop nodes, and between user a station and a multi-hop node is needed for the reliable and secure network operation. In this paper, we survey various authentication schemes which can be considered to be adopted in mobile multi-hop wireless networks and propose a concept of novel mutual authentication scheme applicable to mobile multi-hop network architecture. The scheme should resolve the initial trust gain problem of a multi-hop node at its entry to the network, the problem of rogue mobile multi-hop node and the problem of hop-by-hop authentication between multi-hop nodes. Effectively, the scheme is a hybrid scheme of the distributed authentication method and the centralized authentication method which are considered to be deployed in the wireless ad-hoc network and the wireless network connected to wired authentication servers, respectively.

With the rapid development of heterogeneous emerging wireless technologies and numerous types of mobile devices, the need to support robust mobile video streaming based on the seamless handover in Future Internet is growing. To support the seamless handover, several IP-based mobility management protocols such as Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6), fast handover for the MIPv6 (FMIPv6), Hierarchical MIPv6 (HMIPv6) and Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) were developed. However, MIPv6 depreciates the Quality-of-Service (QoS) and FMIPv6 is not robust for the video services in heterogeneous emerging wireless networks when the Mobile Node (MN) may move to another visited network in contrast with its anticipation. In Future Internet, the possibility of mobile video service failure is more increased because mobile users consisting of multiple wireless network interfaces (WNICs) can frequently change the access networks according to their mobility in heterogeneous wireless access networks such as 3Generation (3G), Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi), Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMax) and Bluetooth co-existed. And in this environment, seamless mobility is coupled according to user preferences, enabling mobile users to be "Always Best Connected" (ABC) so that Quality of Experience is optimised and maintained. Even though HMIPv6 and PMIPv6 are proposed for the location management, handover latency enhancement, they still have limit of local mobility region. In this paper, we propose a robust mobile video streaming in Heterogeneous Emerging Wireless Systems. In the proposed scheme, the MN selects the best-according to an appropriate metric-wireless technology for a robust video streaming service among all wireless technologies by reducing the handover latency and initiation time when handover may fail. Through performance evaluation, we show that our scheme provides more robust mechanism than other schemes.

The recent advance in wireless network technologies has enabled the streaming media service on the mobile devices such as PDAs and cellular phones. Since the wireless network has low bandwidth channels and mobile devices are actually composed of limited hardware specifications, the transcoding technology is needed to adapt streaming media to given mobile devices. Futhermore owing to the diversity of bandwidth in the wireless network by reason of mobile users' movements and environments, it is difficult to provide stable QoS. In this paper, the autonomic multimedia transcoding system is proposed in order for users to provide network adaptive QoS. Our proposed system is based on the estimation of available bandwidth in wireless network for seamless multimedia streaming service. The proposed system is designed and implemented for various mobile clients. In experiments, we evaluate its seamless multimedia streaming and the adaptation transcoding bit rate according to the changes of bandwidth in wireless network.

무선 네트워크 환경에서는 네트워크의 제한된 대역폭과 이동 호스트의 잦은 셀 간 이동으로 인하여, 각 호스트가 요구하는 서비스의 질(Quality of Service)을 보장하기 힘들다. 이런 무선 통신의 특성에서도, 실시간 서비스와 같은 특정 종류의 서비스의 경우에는 요구되어지는 범위 내에서 그 서비스의 질이 반드시 보장되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 무선 이동 네트워크 환경에서 각 서비스의 서비스 율을 어떻게 조정할 것인가에 대해 논의한다. 무선 네트워크 환경에서 이동 호스트가 다른 셀로 이동하였을 경우, 부족한 대역폭을 고려하여 호스트의 서비스 율이 조정된다. 본 논문에서 각 플로우의 QoS Spec을 고려하여 서비스 율을 할당하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘에서는 각 플로우가 요구하는 QoS spec 값에 비례하도록 서비스 율을 정하여 부족한 네트워크 자원을 동적으로 할당함으로써, 무선 네트워크 자원을 보다 효율적으로 사용할 수 있게 한다.
