The data link layer of Foundation Fieldbus is operated on the basis of scheduling and token-passing disciplines. This paper presents a network design method of Foundation Fieldbus using a bandwidth allocation scheme. Fieldbus traffic consists of periodic data and sporadically generated time-critical and time-available data. The bandwidth allocation scheme schedules the transmission of periodic data. Time-critical and time-available data are transmitted via a token-passing service. The validity of this bandwidth allocation scheme is determined using an experimental model of a network system. The results obtained from the experimental model show that the proposed scheme restricts the delay of both periodic and time-critical data to a pre-specified bound. The proposed bandwidth allocation scheme also fully utilizes the bandwidth resource of the network system.

Fieldbus is the lowest level industrial network in the communication hierarchy of factory automation and distributed process control systems. Data generated from field devices are largely divided into three categories : time-critical, periodic and time-available data. Because these data share one fieldbus medium, it needs a method that allocates these data to the bandwidth-limited fieldbus medium. This paper introduces an implementation method of bandwidth allocation scheme on PROFIBUS. In order to implement bandwidth allocation scheme on PROFIBUS, the following functions need to be supplemented on the FDL(Fieldbus Datalink Layer) protocol: (i) separation of medium bandwidth into periodic and non-periodic intervals, (ii) synchronization of node timers over a local link. In order to examine the validity of bandwidth allocation scheme on PROFIBUS, this paper develops an experimental model of a network system. The results obtained from the experimental model show that the bandwidth allocation scheme satisfies the performance requirement of time-critical, periodic and time-available data.

Fieldbus traffic consists of periodic, time-critical and time-available data. A bandwidth allocation scheme allocates periodic, time-critical and time-available data traffic to the bandwidth-limited network resource. This paper presents an implementation method of the bandwidth allocation scheme in the user layer of Foundation fieldbus. In this study, an experimental model of a Foundation Fieldbus network system is developed. Using the experimental model, validity of the bandwidth allocation scheme is examined. The results obtained from the experimental model show that the proposed scheme restricts the delay of both periodic and time-critical data to a pre-specified bound. The bandwidth allocation scheme also fully utilized the bandwidth resource of the network system.

Digital communication networks have become a core technology in advanced building automation systems. BACnet(${\underline{B}}uilding$ ${\underline{A}}utomation$ and ${\underline{C}}ontrol$ ${\underline{net}}works$) is a standard data communication protocol designed specifically for building automation and control systems. BACnet adopts Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MS/TP) protocol as one of its field level networks. In this study, we introduce a method of implementing bandwidth allocation scheme in the MS/TP protocol. The bandwidth allocation scheme improves the capability of real-time communication of the original MS/TP protocol. The bandwidth allocation scheme introduced in this paper can be easily implemented in the existing MS/TP protocol with a slight modification. In this study, we actually developed the hardware and firmware of MS/TP module in which bandwidth allocation scheme is implemented.

본 논문에서는 분산 모바일 멀티미디어 통신망에서 유한한 대역폭을 공정하고 효율적으로 사용하기 위해 파산이론을 적용한 파산 대역폭할당 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 파산 대역폭할당 기법은 협력게임이론에서 파산이론을 활용하여 파산상황에서 각 서비스의 최소 대역폭보장을 통해 각 서비스의 최소 QoS를 제공한다. 성능평가 결과로 제안한 파산 대역폭 할당기법(BBA)은 CEA, CEL, Reverse Talmud에 비해 공정성지수(FI:Fairness Index)를 통해 공정성 있고, Erlang blocking formular를 통해 서비스 차단율에 대해서도 높은 성능을 보임을 나타냈다. 제안된 파산 대역폭할당 기법은 분산 모바일 멀티미디어 통신망에서, 다양한 상황에서 서비스별 우선순위를 통한 대역폭 할당기법이나 동적인 대역폭 할당기법에 최소 대역폭 할당기준으로도 적용할 수 있다.

In order to ensure the wireless connectivity and seamless service to mobile users, the next generation network system will be an integration of multiple wireless access networks. In a heterogeneous wireless access system, bandwidth allocation becomes crucial for load balancing to avoid network congestion and improve system utilization efficiency. In this article, we propose a new dynamic bandwidth allocation scheme for hierarchical wireless network systems. First, we derive a multi-objective decision criterion for each access point. Second, a bargaining strategy selection algorithm is developed for the dynamic bandwidth re-allocation. Based on the intervenient Stackelberg game model, the proposed scheme effectively formulates the competitive interaction situation between several access points. The system performance of proposed scheme is evaluated by using extensive simulations. With a simulation study, it is confirmed that the proposed scheme can achieve better performance than other existing schemes under widely diverse network environments.

As the number of IP cores has been increasing in a System-on-Chip (SoC), multiple routers are included in on-chip-networks. Each router has its own arbitration policy and it is difficult to obtain a desired arbitration result by combining multiple routers. Allocating desired bandwidths to the ports across the routers is more difficult. In this paper, a guaranteed bandwidth allocation scheme using an IP-level QoS control is proposed to overcome the limitations of existing local arbitration policies. Each IP can control the priority of a packet depending on the data communication requirement within the allocated bandwidth. The experimental results show that the proposed mechanism guarantees for IPs to utilize the allocated bandwidth in multiple router on-chip-networks. The maximum error rate of bandwidth allocation of the proposed scheme is only 1.9%.

분산 모바일 멀티미디어 시스템에서 클라이언트의 재생 버퍼 수준에 기반하여 통신망 대역폭을 동적으로 할당하는 기법이 본 논문에서 제시된다. 이 기법에서 비디오 요청을 서비스하기 위해 할당된 대역폭의 양은 요구한 클라이언트의 버퍼 수준에 따라 결정된다. 즉 클라이언트의 버퍼 수준이 일시적으로 낮아지거나 높아지면 재생 상황을 개선하기 위한 목적으로 더 많은 대역폭 또는 더 적은 대역폭이 할당되는 것이다. 또한 재생 버퍼 수준 기반 대역폭 할당 기법을 사용함으로써 클라이언트들에게 공평한 서비스가 제공될 수 있다. 고품질의 비디오 재생을 지원하기 위해서 비디오 프레임들은 반드시 재생 시간 전까지 클라이언트에 전송되어야 한다. 이 대역폭 할당 기법의 주목적은 전송이 중단되는 프레임의 수를 최소화하여 비디오 재생 성능과 서비스 품질을 향상시키며 동시에 진행되는 모든 비디오 요청 작업을 공평하게 서비스하는 것이다. 제시된 기법의 성능은 시뮬레이션을 통하여 다른 정적 대역폭 할당 기법과 비교 분석되었으며 프레임의 전송중단율은 버퍼수준에 따라 약 4%에서 9% 정도 감소된 것으로 나타났다.
