현재 홈 네트워크, 센서 네트워크, 유비쿼터스 네트워크 등에 대한 활발한 연구가 진행되면서 무선 이동 애드-흑 네트워크에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 무선 이동 애드-혹 네트워크란 기존의 유선 하부구조의 도움 없이 이동 호스트들만으로 구성되는 임시적인 네트워크로, 언제어디서나 컴퓨팅 환경을 이용할 수 있도록 하는 개념의 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에 적합한 네트워크이다. 본 논문에서는 다중 소스 라우팅 프로토콜 기반의 무선 이동 애드-혹 네트워크 환경과 Mobile-IP 기반의 네트워크 환경을 연동하는 기법에 대해 제안하고자 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 기법은 무선 이동 애드-혹 네트워크 내의 이동 호스트와 기지국간 다중 경로를 유지함으로써 경로 단절시 경로 재설정 및 재등록으로 인한 오버헤드를 줄이며 무선 이동 애드-혹 네트워크 내의 패킷을 Mobile-IP 패킷으로 변환하는 기능을 기지국에서 수행하도록 함으로써 이동호스트들의 오버헤드를 감소시키는 기법이다. 성능 평가를 통해, 본 논문에서 제안하는 기법이 단일 경로를 사용하는 일반적인 연동 기법들보다 이동 속도 증가에 따른 처리량 및 단대단 지연이 보다 안정적이며, 노드/링크가 전혀 중복되지 않는 다중 경로를 사용하는 기법에 비해 낮은 오버헤드를 가짐을 보인다.

Wireless sensor network technology is an emerging technology consisting of small, low power, and low cost devices that integrate limited computation, sensing, and radio communication capabilities. An ad-hoc home network system based embedded system for home environment monitoring was fabricated and tested. The wireless sensor node consists of a MCU, RF transceiver and sensors (temperature, humidity and light). Wireless sensor nodes run application software for data sampling and wireless communication, that was developed using 'nesC language' which runs on TinyOS. In our tests, acquired sensors data were monitored on 6.4" TFT-LCD of base-station through IEEE802.15.4 standard wireless communication. Also, the sensor data can be monitored by client user at the terminal PC to monitor environmental status of home in real time.

A home healthcare system based wireless sensor network, which can continuously monitor and manage the elderly's electrocardiogram(ECG) signal at any space at home without space limit is proposed. The communication coverage of wireless network is expended by multi-hop wireless sensor network. In order to send the elderly's ECG data wirelessly, a small size ECG sensor node was designed to forward the ECG data over multi-hop relay network. The packet acquired by mobile ECG node is transmitted through wireless intermediate nodes to base station for analyzing the packet reception rate. Modified minimum cost forwarding(MMCF) protocol and flooding protocol are designed and implemented to check the transmission efficiency of a packet in a wireless sensor network. The developed MMCF protocol shows an advantage of high reception rate by reduced network traffic.

본 논문에서는 대수정규 쉐도잉(shadowing) 페이딩을 함께 받은 타 시스템의 동일 채널간섭파가 불완전 전력제어 된 DS/CDMA 셀룰러 시스템의 용량에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 분석에는 먼저 간섭을 고려하지 않고 불완전 전력제어만을 해석한 Prasad와 jansen의 결과와 비교하였으며, 대수정규-나카가미 페이딩을 받은 다중 간섭은 Schwartz와 Yeh가 제시한 방법을 적용하여 DS/CDMA 시스템의 미치는 영향을 오수신확률로 유도하였다. 유도한 오수신확률에 대해 불완전 전력제어, 페이딩 지수, 처리이득, 전력비, 간섭수, 음성화율 등을 파라메터로 하여 각각의 상황에서 DS/CDMA 시스템의 가입자 용량 감소를 분석하였다. 결과로부터 DS/CDMA 시스템의 용량은 전력제어 오차와 간섭파의 증가에 매우 민감하며 전력제어 오차가 클수록, 무선채널 환경의 페이딩이 심할수록, 또한 간섭파의 수가 증가할수록 감소하였다.

본 논문에서는 새로운 간섭 모델, 실제적인 HAPS(High Altitude Platform Station) 간섭 시나리오, HAPS 시스템과 FWA(Fixed Wireless Access) 시스템에 대한 안테나 패턴, 송신 전력 등과 같은 파라미터들을 이용하여 HAPS 시스템의 지상국(GS: Ground Station)으로부터 P-MP(Point-to-Multipoint) FWA 기지국(BS: Base Station)로의 간섭 및 HAPS 시스템의 GS로부터 FWA 단말국(TS: Terminal Station)으로의 간섭 영향에 대하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과를 보게 되면, HAPS GS로부터 P-MP FWA BS로의 간섭의 경우, 섹터화된 안테나를 사용하는 BS국이 nadir (HAPS 커버리지 중심)의 반대편을 바라보고 있을 때에 두 시스템은 효율적으로 운용될 수가 있다. 그러나 HAPS GS로부터 P-MP FWA TS로의 간섭의 경우에서는 충분한 이격거리가 보장되지 않거나, 간섭 경감 기법을 사용하지 않는다면 이 대역에서 두 시스템은 효율적인 스펙트럼 공유가 불가능하다.

In this paper, an improved zone-based routing protocol for heterogeneous wireless sensor networks is proposed. The proposed protocol has fixed the sized zone according to the distance from the base station and used a dynamic clustering technique for advanced nodes to select a cluster head with maximum residual energy to transmit the data. In addition, we select an optimal route with minimum energy consumption for normal nodes and conserve energy by state transition throughout data transmission. Simulation results indicated that the proposed protocol performed better than the other algorithm by reducing energy consumption and providing a longer network lifetime and better throughput of data packets.

In this paper, we propose a new framework for anomaly detection in medical wireless sensor networks, which are used for remote monitoring of patient vital signs. The proposed framework performs sequential data analysis on a mini gateway used as a base station to detect abnormal changes and to cope with unreliable measurements in collected data without prior knowledge of anomalous events or normal data patterns. The proposed approach is based on the Mahalanobis distance for spatial analysis, and a kernel density estimator for the identification of abnormal temporal patterns. Our main objective is to distinguish between faulty measurements and clinical emergencies in order to reduce false alarms triggered by faulty measurements or ill-behaved sensors. Our experimental results on both real and synthetic medical datasets show that the proposed approach can achieve good detection accuracy with a low false alarm rate (less than 5.5%).

Wideband terminal and base station is required to serve not only existing 1st and 2nd generation mobile communication systems but also 3rd generation systems. In this paper, we presents a feasibility study on single feed compact wideband antenna for wireless communication applications including GSM (890-960 MHz), GPS (1575 MHz), DCS (1710-1880 MHz), PCS (1880-1990 MHz), UMTS (1900-2200 MHz), ISM (2400-2480 MHz), IMT2000 and satellite DMB bands. The original antenna was designed for partial discharge detection sensor in high voltage diagnostic system. However, we modified the original prototype to achieve shifted down resonant frequency for wideband wireless communication applications. The experimental result shows good return loss characteristics and radiation patterns except for the total gain at each resonant frequency. The maximum measured gain was 2.45 dBi${\sim}$3.18 dBi at 1710 MHz${\sim}$1880 MHz.

In this paper, we have analyzed TCP performance over wireless correlated fading links with and without Snoop protocol. For a given value of the packet error rate, TCP performance without Snoop protocol is degraded as the fading is getting fast (i.e. the user moves fast). When Snoop protocol is introduced in the base station, TCP performance is enhanced in most wireless environments. Especially the performance enhancement derived from using Snoop protocol is large in fast fading channel. This is because packet errors become random and sporadic in fast fading channel and these random packet errors (mostly single packet errors) can be compensated efficiently by Snoop protocol's local packet retransmissions. But Snoop protocol can't give a large performance improvement in slow fading environments where long bursts of packet errors occur. Concerning to packet error rate, Snoop protocol results in the highest performance enhancement in the channel with mid-high values of packet error rate. This means Snoop protocol cannot fully fulfill its ability under too low or too high packet error rate environments.

In this paper, adaptive channel borrowing approach fuzzy neural networks for load balancing (ACB-FNN) is presented to maximized the number of served calls and the depending on asymmetries traffic load problem. In a wireless network, the call's arrival rate, the call duration and the communication overhead between the base station and the mobile switch center are vague and uncertain. A new load balancing algorithm with cell involved negotiation is also presented in this paper. The ACB-FNN exhibits better learning abilities, optimization abilities, robustness, and fault-tolerant capability thus yielding better performance compared with other algorithms. It aims to efficiently satisfy their diverse quality-of-service (QoS) requirements. The results show that our algorithm has lower blocking rate, lower dropping rate, less update overhead, and shorter channel acquisition delay than previous methods.
