The current LTE network system provides service by locally allocating eNodeB to the EPC(Evolved Packet Core). However, it is not suitable for inter-node communication based on the distributed network environment. In this paper, we propose an integrated system by configuring E-UTRAN and EPC as All-In-One type to enable service in each distributed node. M2M UE is mounted on a each node for wireless In-band backhaul link. The integrated node provides inter-node communication over the wireless in-band backhaul link. If a normal UE moves and an access node changes in the system all entities of LTE integrated into one, it is necessary to change the P-GW which is IP anchor. In order to support the inter-node mobility even if P-GW is changed, We defined UPFE(User Packet Forwarding Extension) scheme and implemented the handover procedure of EPC. Also, we analyze the cell range of the integrated LTE system with the addition of the node and compare the handover delay with the current system.

Because of short length between interchanges, traffic congestion has been caused by a lot of short trip traffic in the urban section of interregional expressway. Also, in case of expressway with Bus Only Lane, bus causes dangerous situation by conflicting between vehicles and buses in order to access from Bus Only Lane to IC. Therefore, this study aims to propose Express Lane applied by Bus Only Lane as a new lane operation in order to efficiently operate and to analyze the effectiveness on constructing Express Lane to the Pangyo-Hannam section in Gyeongbu Expressway. The study analyzes effectiveness by scenario using the micro traffic simulation tool, VISSIM 5.4. For this, the indicators which evaluate construction effect of Express Lane, are used by average delay time, average speed and total travel time. The results of the study showed the best effectiveness when Express Lane installed one, and it represented an ideal traffic condition when long distance trip traffic of the whole traffic is 25% in the study section. Therefore, the construction of Express Lane using Bus Only Lane achieves positive effectiveness on safety and expense aspect as well as uncongested flow.

Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are emerging technologies that provide ubiquitous environments and wireless broadband access. The aggregate capacity of WMNs can be improved by minimizing the effect of channel interference. The IEEE 802.11b/g standard which is mainly used for the network interface technology in WMNs provides 3 multiple channels. We must consider the channel scanning delay and the channel dependency problem to effectively assign channels in like these multi-channel WMNs. This paper proposes a cluster-based channel assignment (CB-CA) algorithm for multi-channel WMNs to solve such problems. The CB-CA does not perform the channel scanning and the channel switching through assigning co-channel to the inter-cluster head (CH) links. In the CB-CA, the communication between the CH and cluster member (CM) nodes uses a channel has no effect on channels being used by the inter-CH links. Therefore, the CB-CA can minimize the interference within multi-channel environments. Our simulation results show that CB-CA can improve the performance of WMNs.

The prior purpose of this study is to introduce a optical biopsy and evaluate whether the optical biopsy, real-time, non-invasive technique, is a reliable tool to assess response to radiotherapy Four healthy volunteers, and four patients with inflammatory conditions of the oral cavity participated on the study. was obtained from each person enrolled in the study. Using FastEEM(Ercited Emission Matrix) as a optical biopsy tool, normal and tumor spectra are taken from the normal and the tumor regions. And then second optical biopsy are taken from the tumor regions in 4 patients with time delay at 7days.. Using a diagnostic algorithm, made by Gillenwater based on spectra excited at 337nm The Optical Biopsy turned out to be more suited for tumor diagnostic resulting in significant difference fluorescence spectra. The fluorescence intensity of cancerous tissue showed a higher position. The second fluorescence intensity of optical biopsy of cancerous oral tissue has more smaller than the first result. I conclude that optical biopsy, which technique don't need to remove tissue sample from body, and is a real time , and non-invasive measurement is a reliable tool to access to radiotherapy because FastEEM can do measure the variation of the tissue composition chemical, biological, and morphological after radiotherapy. Based on the fluorescence spectrum are taken from the optical biopsy in normal and tumor spectra as well as tumor spectra after 7days.

With the advance of wireless communication technology in terrestrial area, underwater communication is also evolving very fast from a simple point-to-point transmission to an elaborate networked communications. Underwater acoustic channel has quite different features comparing with the terrestrial radio channel in terms of propagation delay, Doppler shift, multipath, and path loss. Thus, existing technologies developed for terrestrial communication might not work properly in underwater channel. Especially medium access control (MAC) protocols which highly depend on propagation phenomenon should be newly designed for underwater network. CSMA/CA has drawn lots of attention as a candidate of underwater MAC protocol, since it is able to resolve a packet collision and the hidden node problem. However, a received signal could be degraded by the interferences from the nodes locating outside the receiver's propagation radius. In this paper, we study the effects of interference on the CSMA/CA based underwater network. We derived the SNR with the interference using the sonar equation and analyzed the degradation of the RTS/CTS effects. These results are compared with the terrestrial results to understand the differences. Finally we summarized the design considerations in CSMA/CA based underwater network.

In this paper, the fast encoding algorithm in High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) encoder was studied. For the encoding efficiency, the current HEVC reference software is divided the input image into Coding Tree Unit (CTU). then, it should be re-divided into CU up to maximum depth in form of quad-tree for RDO (Rate-Distortion Optimization) in encoding precess. But, it is one of the reason why complexity is high in the encoding precess. In this paper, to reduce the high complexity in the encoding process, it proposed the method by determining the maximum depth of the CU using a hierarchical clustering at the pre-processing. The hierarchical clustering results represented an average combination of motion vectors (MV) on neighboring blocks. Experimental results showed that the proposed method could achieve an average of 16% time saving with minimal BD-rate loss at 1080p video resolution. When combined the previous fast algorithm, the proposed method could achieve an average 45.13% time saving with 1.84% BD-rate loss.

Traditional live video streaming systems support the limited field of view (FOV) of image to the remote users. A server system based on the pan/tilt camera provides a user with wide view by changing the view direction of the camera mechanically. But, when many clients try to access to the server, this system can not offer their own view to every user simultaneously, and moreover it has the delay by camera motion. In order to offer wide views to several users, we propose new streaming system using the panorama image that has wide view. Our system is a kind of implementation of software pan/tilt camera. The server acquires panorama video and sends a part of the video to clients. Then, each client can control their own view. We need the effective way to reduce the average transmission data size and server burden to the compression because generally the full size of panorama video is too big to be served by the real-time streaming. To solve this problem, we propose an strip-based video compression and adaptive transmission of the compressed multiple strip videos. Experimental results show that our system can be adapted quickly to the change of view and the number of clients. Furthermore, proposed method effectively reduce the transmission data.

Recently, users want to use real-time multimedia services, such as internet, VoIP, etc., using their IEEE 802.11 wireless lan mobile stations. In order to provide such services, a handoff among access points is essential to support the mobility of a node, in such an wide area. However, the legacy handoff methods of IEEE 802.11 technology are easy to lose connections. Also, the recognition of a disconnection and channel re-searching time make the major delay of the next AP to connect. In addition, because IEEE 802.11 decides the selection of an AP depending only on received signal strength, regardless of a node direction, position, etc., it cannot guarantee a stable bandwidth for communication. Therefore, in order to provide a real-time multimedia service, a node must reduce the disconnection time and needs an appropriate algorithm to support a sufficient communication bandwidth. In this paper, we suggest an algorithm which predicts a handoff point of a moving node by using GPS location information, and guarantees a high transmission bandwidth according to the signal strength and the distance. We implemented the suggested algorithm, and confirmed the superiority of our algorithm by reducing around 3.7ms of the layer-2 disconnection time, and guaranteed 24.8% of the communication bandwidth.

This paper proposes a congestion avoidance algorithm which provides stable throughput and transmission rate regardless of buffer size by limiting the TCP congestion window in fixed bandwidth networks. Additive Increase, Multiplicative Decrease (AIMD) is the most commonly used congestion control algorithm. But, the AIMD-based TCP congestion control method causes unnecessary packet losses and retransmissions from the congestion window increment for available bandwidth verification when used in fixed bandwidth networks. In addition, the saw tooth variation of TCP throughput is inappropriate to be adopted for the applications that require low bandwidth variation. We present an algorithm in which congestion window can be limited under appropriate circumstances to avoid congestion losses while still addressing fairness issues. The maximum congestion window is determined from delay information to avoid queueing at the bottleneck node, hence stabilizes the throughput and the transmission rate of the connection without buffer and window control process. Simulations have performed to verify compatibility, steady state throughput, steady state packet loss count, and the variance of congestion window. The proposed algorithm can be easily adopted to the sender and is easy to deploy avoiding changes in network routers and user programs. The proposed algorithm can be applied to enhance the performance of the high-speed access network which is one of the fixed bandwidth networks.

In this paper, we analyze mathematically the performance of the gated service scheduling in the Interleaved Polling with Adaptive Cycle Time(IPACT) was proposed to control upstream traffic for Gigabit Ethernet-PONs. In the analysis, we model EPON MAC protocol as a polling system and use mean value analysis. We divide arrival rate λ into three regions and analyze each region accordingly In the first region in which λ value is very small, there are very few ONUs' data to be transmitted. In the second region in which λ has reasonably large value, ONUs have enough data for continuous transmission. In the third region, ONUs' buffers are always saturated with data since λ value is very large. We obtain average packet delay, average Queue size, average cycle time of the gated service. We compare analysis results with simulation to verify the accuracy of the mathematical analysis. Simulation requires much time and effort to evaluate the performance of EPONs. On the other hand, mathematical analysis can be widely used in the design of EPON systems because system designers can obtain various performance results rapidly. We can design appropriate EPON systems for varioustraffic property by adjusting control parameters.
