This paper aims at investigating the Demand Assigned Multiple Access(DAMA) system for the packet-switched Satellite Communication. An onboard processor of the multisport beam satellite incorporates the ground controller to macimize the packet transmissions for each slot. 'Request Following' trnasmission mode is introduced as a transmission strategy of ground station under the control of its zone controller. The combined scheme of reservation channel access and contention channel access was proposed by Lee & Mark[3] for improving the Delay-Throughput performance. Our scheme provides less communication delay of approximately max. 200msec for achieving the corresponding throughput than the Lee & Mark's work does. Delay versus Throughput curves as well as Delay versus Traffic parameter curves are obtained. Numerical results obtained through the analysis and by the computer simulation show that the proposed scheme provides the low average packer delay even under the condition that the number of transponders (M)is below the half of the number of zones(N).

This paper analyzes matched-filter acquistion performance of a direct-sequence spread-specturm multiple-access system in a Rayleigh fading channel. For an application of multiple access system, multiple access interference is considered in the performance analysis. A signal flow graph technique is used to derive mean acquisition time in terms of detection and false alarm probabilities. As aresult of performance analysis, it is shown that mean acquisition time increases as fading rate becomes faster andthe numbre of users increases, and it decreases as a matched-filter length becomes logner. The variation of parameter values hs much influence on acquisition performance as SNR/chip becomes smaller.

We propose a new priority discipline called the strict T-preemptive priority discipline, and derive the waiting time distributions of each class in the strict T-preemptive priority M/G/1 queue. Using this queueing analysis, we evaluate the performance of an opportunistic spectrum access in cognitive radio networks, where a communication channel is divided into time slots, a licensed primary user is assigned to one channel, and multiple unlicensed secondary users may opportunistically exploit time slots unused by the primary user. We also present a numerical example of the analysis of the opportunistic spectrum access where the arrival rates and service times distributions of each users are identical.

We compare the achievable throughput of time division multiple access (TDMA) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) schemes illustrated in the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) MIMO technical report, versus the sum-rate capacity of space-time multiple access (STMA). These schemes have been proposed to improve the 3GPP high speed downlink packet access (HSDPA) channel by employing multiple antennas at both the base station and mobile stations. Our comparisons are performed in multi-user environments and are conducted using TDMA such as Qualcomm's High Data Rate and HSDPA, which is a simpler technique than STMA. Furthermore, we present the unified optimal power allocation strategy for HSDPA MIMO schemes by exploiting the similarity of multiple antenna systems and multi-user channel problems.

In this letter, a modified 802.11-based opportunistic spectrum access is proposed for single-channel cognitive radio networks where primary users operate on a slot-by-slot basis. In our opportunistic spectrum access, control frames are used to reduce the slot-boundary impact and achieve channel reservation to improve throughput of secondary users. An absorbing Markov chain model is used to analyze the throughput of secondary users. Simulation results show that the analysis accurately predicts the saturation throughput.

Various air indexing and data scheduling schemes for wireless broadcast of spatial data have been developed for energy efficient query processing. The existing schemes are not effective when the clients' data access patterns are skewed to some items. It is because the schemes are based on flat broadcast that does not take the popularity of the data items into consideration. In this paper, thus, we propose a data scheduling scheme letting the popular items appear more frequently on the channel, and grid-based distributed index for non-flat broadcast (GDIN) for window query processing. The proposed GDIN allows quick and energy efficient processing of window query, matching the clients' linear channel access pattern and letting the clients access only the queried data items. The simulation results show that the proposed GDIN significantly outperforms the existing schemes in terms of access time, tuning time, and energy efficiency.

This paper proposes a new dynamic spectrum access (DSA) algorithm for cognitive radio networks. Once initialized, this algorithm works without the need of coordination overhead and hence can be used when no control channel is available. Secondary user (SU) lists and predetermined access control are used in this algorithm. We analyze the probability of no SU collision with primary user and the throughput of our proposed algorithm. Extensive simulations show that our algorithm outperforms the existing DSA algorithm in terms of both the aggregate throughput and the traffic distribution fairness. Furthermore, the validity of our analysis is confirmed by simulation results.

가용 주파수 고갈 문제를 해결하기 위하여 제안된 무선인지기술은 특정 주파수 대역에 대해 사용면허를 가진 주사용자가 사용하지 않는 유휴채널에 접근하여 통신을 수행함으로써 주파수 효율을 향상시키는 차세대 통신기술이다. 주사용자의 유휴채널을 사용하기 위해서는 해당 채널을 현재 주사용자가 점유하고 있는지를 정확히 판단하여야 한다. 분산형 무선인지 네트워크에서 독립적으로 채널을 센싱하는 무선인지 기기의 경우 센싱의 결과가 노이즈, 쉐도윙, 페이딩과 같은 채널 환경에 영향을 많이 받으며 심지어 주사용자가 요구하는 간섭률을 보장하지 못하는 결과를 초래한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 주사용자가 요구하는 최소 간섭량을 보장하는 동시에 기회주의적으로 채널에 접근하여 인지시스템의 처리율(처리율)을 향상시키는 Q-learning 기반의 채널접근기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 사전 학습 단계에서 주사용자의 채널사용 패턴을 Q-learning으로 학습하고 이를 Q-learning 기반 채널접근 단계에서 실제로 적용함으로써 스펙트럼 센싱 성능을 향상시킨다. 모의실험을 통해 AWGN 및 레일레이 페이딩 무선 환경에서 주사용자에 대한 간섭량 및 처리율 성능이 기존의 에너지 검출 방법에 비해 더 우수함을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 이동 컴퓨터 통신망을 구현할 때 사용될 수 있는 여러 다중 엑세스 방식의 성능을 이동통신 채널의 특성을 고려하여 비교 하였다. 숨겨진 노드가 존재하는 상황에서 Code Division Multiple Access(CDMA)방식이 동시에 엑세스가 가능하기 때문에 Carrier Sensed Multiple Access(CSMA), Idle Signal Multiple Access (ISMA) 및 Busy Tone Multiple Access(BTMA) 등과 같은 패켓 엑세스 방식에 비하여 처리율면이나 평균지연 시간의 측면에서 우수함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 여러 방식중 대역확산 방식을 사용한 CDMA 방식이 페이딩 현상이나 임펄스성 잡음이 존재할 때 CSMA 등과 같은 패켓 엑세스 방식에 비하여 우수함을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 확인하였다. 특히 분산망의 경우에 있어서는, CDMA 방식을 효율적으로 이용한 수신자 전송자 코드분할 다중 엑세스(Recciver Transmitter CDMA) 방식이 공통-송신자 코드분할 다중엑세스(Common Transmitter CDMA) 방식에 비하여 좋은 처리율과 적은 지연시간을 나타내었다.

Improvements in wireless sensor network (WSN) technology have resulted in a large number of applications. WSNs have been mainly used for monitoring applications, but they are also applicable to target tracking, health care, and monitoring with multimedia data. Nodes are generally deployed in environments where the exhausted batteries of sensor nodes are difficult to charge or replace. The primary goal of communication protocols in WSNs is to maximize energy efficiency in order to prolong network lifetime. In this paper, various medium access control (MAC) protocols for synchronous/asynchronous and single/multi-channel WSNs are investigated. Single-channel MAC protocols are categorized into synchronous and asynchronous approaches, and the advantages and disadvantages of each protocol are presented. The different features required in multi-channel WSNs compared to single-channel WSNs are also investigated, and surveys on multi-channel MAC protocols proposed for WSNs are provided. Then, existing broadcast schemes in such MAC protocols and efficient multi-hop broadcast protocols proposed for WSNs are provided. The limitations and challenges in many communication protocols according to this survey are pointed out, which will help future researches on the design of communication protocols for WSNs.
