  • It is important that using of efficient radio resource because of deficiency spectrum problem, so that related to this problem many researches are have proceeded. To solve this problem, Cognitive Radio(CR) was suggested. The channels are allocated to the secondary users when the primary users don't use the channels, and unfairness of secondary users can be serious problem and channel quality of multichannel can be different due to the different traffic pattern of primary users. In this paper, we propose MAC prtocol both of the user's fairness and channel quality in CR networks. Simulation results show the comparison with CR MAC protocols.

  • For multi-mode radar signals in complex electromagnetic environment, different modes of one emitter tend to be deinterleaved into several emitters, called as "extension", when processing received signals by use of existing sorting methods. The "extension" problem inevitably deteriorates the sorting performance of multi-mode radar signals. In this paper, a novel method based on spatial data mining is presented to address above challenge. Based on theories of data field, we describe the distribution information of feature parameters using potential field, and makes partition clustering of parameter samples according to revealed distribution features. Additionally, an evaluation criterion based on cloud model membership is established to measure the relevance between different cluster-classes, which provides important spatial knowledge for the solution of the "extension" problem. It is shown through numerical simulations that the proposed method is effective on solving the "extension" problem in multi-mode radar signal sorting, and can achieve higher correct sorting rate.

  • In this paper, we investigate the achievable sum rate and energy efficiency of downlink massive multiple-input multiple-output antenna systems with zero-forcing precoding, by taking into account the randomness of user locations. Specifically, we propose two types of non-uniform user distributions, namely, center-intensive user distribution and edge-intensive user distribution. Based on these user distributions, we derive novel tight lower and upper bounds on the average sum rate. In addition, the impact of user distributions on the optimal number of users maximizing the sum rate is characterized. Moreover, by adopting a realistic power consumption model which accounts for the transmit power, circuit power and signal processing power, the energy efficiency of the system is studied. In particular, closed-form solutions for the key system parameters, such as the number of antennas and the optimal transmit signal-to-noise ratio maximizing the energy efficiency, are obtained. The findings of the paper suggest that user distribution has a significant impact on the system performance: for instance, the highest average sum rate is achieved with the center-intensive user distribution, while the lowest average sum rate is obtained with the edge-intensive user distribution. Also, more users can be served with the center-intensive user distribution.

  • In accordance with the changes in the wireless communication environment, there has been a great need to satisfy the demand for diverse modes of information exchange. Various types of short-distance wireless communication technology have been developed and studied to meet this demand. Among them, Bluetooth which has recently been acclaimed as the standard for short-distance wireless communication, has been the focus of many such studies. However, Bluetooth has weaknesses in its suuity features when its in security services are applied to Home networks. The purpose of this study is to propose a safe Bluetooth scenario with an upgraded suity feature. This paper first reviews the general characteristics and security features of Bluetooth together with an analysis of its weaknesses, and presents the formation and maintenance process of Bluetooth piconet what is created by using ECDSA and group key in the ACL(Asynchronous Connection-less Link) connection through a safe Bluetooth inquiry process.

  • Cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) for vacant licensed bands is one of the key techniques in cognitive radio networks. However, current CSS schemes focus on ensuring an efficient cooperation among secondary users (SUs), but ignoring their competition. At the same time when several SUs want to a vacant band, how to win this pop vacant band for an SU becomes more and more important. Inspired by the idea that an SU who always behaves well will win a pop vacant band more easily, we propose a competition scheme called BehaveWell (BW) in this paper. By analyzing the main threats against CSS, competitive coefficient is introduced to evaluate each SU's past behaviors in CSS. A higher competitive coefficient is very helpful for an SU to win a pop vacant band. This BW scheme can not only enhance a healthy competition among SUs, but also improve the security of CSS. Simulations verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

  • 무선 센서 네트워크 환경에서 효율적인 데이터 수집 기업은 핵심적인 기반 기술이다. 클러스터 기반의 데이터 수집 기법은 데이터 병합 (aggregation) 의 효율을 최대화 시켜 센서 노드들의 에너지 소모를 최소화 시킨다. 하지만 기존의 클러스터링 기법은 균일한 네트워크 환경만을 고려하여 불균일하게 배포될 수 있는 실제 환경에는 적합하지 않다. 본 논문에서는 기존 기업들의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 불균일한 네트워크 환경에서도 에너지 효율적인 클러스터를 구축할 수 있는 기업을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 클러스터 헤드를 기준으로 최단 거리 홉 카운트 기법을 통해 논리적인 거리를 기반으로 클러스터 멤버를 구성한다. 이를 통해 불균일한 네트워크 환경에서도 클러스터들 간에 균형적인 멀티-홉 클러스터를 구축하여 네트워크 수명을 최대화 시킨다. 제안하는 기법의 우수성을 모이기 위해 기존 기법과 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 비교평가 하였다.

  • 무선 센서 네트워크에서 에너지 효율적인 네트워크 구성을 위해 데이터를 수집하는 싱크 노드에 이동성을 적용시킨 모바일 싱크를 이용한 데이터 수집 기법이 활발하게 연구되고 있다. 하지만 최근 모바일 싱크를 적용한 데이터 수집 기법에서는 무선 센서 노드들의 에너지 소모를 분산시켜 네트워크의 수명은 증가시켰지만 고정적인 경로를 기반으로 하여 이벤트 데이터의 신속한 수집이 불가능하거나 이동성을 갖는 모바일 싱크로의 동적 라우팅 패스의 빈번한 설정으로 인해 최적화된 에너지 효율을 제공하지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 모바일 싱크 기반의 무선 센서 네트워크 환경에서 에너지 효율성을 고려하여 이벤트 데이터를 우선 수집하는 데이터 수집 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 특정 이벤트가 발생할 경우, 모바일 싱크의 이동성을 이용하여 특정 이벤트 데이터를 빠르게 수집하며 일반적인 모니터링 데이터의 압축과 전송 주기를 변경함으로써 전반적인 QoS를 향상시킨다. 성능평가 결과, 제안하는 기법은 기존 기법에 비해 이벤트 데이터에 대한 응답시간이 평균 57% 감소하였고, 네트워크의 수명이 평균 19% 증가하였다.

  • Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6)는 Mobile Node (MN)가 스스로 이동성을 지원하지 않더라도 Mobile Access Gate가 MN대신 이동성을 처리하여 IPv6 이동성을 지원하는 기술이다. 좀 더 향상된 핸드오버 성능을 얻기 위해 Proxy Mobile IPv6에서도 버퍼링을 통한 패킷 손실을 줄이는 기법을 사용할 수 있다. 하지만, IEEE 802.11 네트워크에서는 Handover 발생 직전에 MN이 어떠한 통보도 AP로 하지 않기 때문에 Handover시에 패킷 손실을 줄이기 위한 패킷 버퍼링 방법을 사용하기가 어렵다. 본 논문에서 PMIPv6에서 MAG와 AP가 MN의 이동성을 감지하여 버퍼링을 시작하고 Handover가 발생하였을 경우에 대비해 버퍼링을 하는 Cross-layer 버퍼링 방법을 제안한다. 이를 통해 PMIPv6에서도 MN의 변경 없이 Handover시에 발생하는 패킷 손실을 최소화 할 수 있다. 또한 간단한 성능 비교를 통하여 제안 방법이 기존 PMIPv6보다 우수함을 알 수 있다.
