The need for video diagnosis in medicine has been increased and real-time transfer of digital video will be an important component in PACS and telemedicine. But, Network environment has certain limitations that the required throughput can not satisfy quality of service (QoS). MPEG-4 ratified as a moving video standard by the ISO/IEC provides very efficient video coding covering the various ranges of low bit-rate in network environment. We implemented MPEG-4 CODEC (coder/decoder) and applied various compression ratios to moving ultrasound images. These images were displayed in random order on a client monitor passed through network. Radiologists determined subjective opinion scores for evaluating clinically acceptable image quality and then these were statistically processed in the t-Test method. Moreover the MPEG-4 decoded images were quantitatively analyzed by computing peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) to objectively evaluate image quality. The bit-rate to maintain clinically acceptable image quality was up to 0.8Mbps. We successfully implemented the adaptive throughput or bit-rate relative to the image quality of ultrasound sequences used MPEG-4 that can be applied for diagnostic performance in real-time.

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is used in the railway field in terms of efficient management and maintenance. Sensor communication technology based on IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee is used in low speed train. However, it is difficult to apply in the high speed train that exposed to severe wireless channel environments. In this paper, we propose the sensor communication algorithm for high speed train environment. we improve error rate and throughput using Equalizer, Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO), Flexible Spreading Factor (SF) and Modulation. Also, we have analyzed the performance of the IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee based on the standard of physical layer of 2.4GHz band in each algorithms. Simulation results show that proposed algorithms can improve error rate and throughput of conventional system.

This paper proposes the efficient method of CSMA during an idle duration in the time slot. The hybrid TDMA/CSMA protocol is the method that shares the medium efficiently. This improves the channel efficiency and throughput by using CSMA method during the idle TDMA time slot. In CSMA duration, many devices start to compete with each other. This causes a low throughput because of a long delay and a frequent collision. In order to improve this problem, the proposed method reduces the number of devices that compete in the CSMA duration. Because the number of competed device is reduced, this proposed algorithm reduces the delay and collision probability. This decrements of delay and collision probability improve the networks. The simulation results show that the proposed limitive CSMA methods outperform any methods of hybrid TDMA/CSMA protocol.

The handover between different radio access networks, especially where their coverage overlaps, suffers various complications since the different access networks provide different service characteristics. One way to reduce service interruptions and QoS (i.e., bandwidth, throughput, delay) degradations during the inter-technology handover is to reserve the required resource in advance. The resource reservation algorithm should minimize the handover latency and maximize the resource utilization based on the accurate estimation on mobile's location, velocity, movement pattern and service requirements. In this paper, we propose a resource reservation algorithm based on the mobile terminal velocity and the cell selection probability, which maximizes resource utilization ana reduces network overhead. We compare the proposed algorithm with PMS(Predictive Mobility Support) and VCDS(Velocity and Call Duration Support scheme) based on 3-layer network model under various scenarios.

This research proposed integrated expressway traffic management strategy using ramp metering and toll mainline metering. This research suggested a traffic signal optimization model for integrated operation of ramp and mainline metering based on Demand-Capacity Model that is used to optimize allowable input volume for ramp metering in FREQ model. The objective function of this model is sectional throughput volume maximization, and this model can calculate optimal signal timings for mainline metering and ramp metering. This study conducted an effectiveness analysis of integrated metering strategy using PARAMICS and its API. It targeted Seoul's Outer Ring Expressway between Gimpo and Siheung toll gate. As a simulation result, integrated operation of mainline and ramp metering provided more smooth traffic flow, and throughput volume of mainline increased to 14% in congested section. In addition, a queue of 400 meter was formed at metering point of toll gate. This research checked that integrated traffic management strategy facilitates more efficient traffic operation of mainline and ramp from diffused traffic congestion.

An Ethernet PON(Passive Optical Network) is an economical and efficient access network that has received significant research attention in recent years. A MAC(Media Access Control) protocol of PON , the next generation access network, is based on TDMA(Time Division Multiple Access) basically and can classify this protocol into a fixed length slot assignment method suitable for leased line supporting QoS(Quality of Service) and a variable length slot assignment method suitable for LAN/MAN with the best effort. For analyzing the performance of these protocols, we design an Ethernet PON model using OPNET tool. To establish the maximum efficiency of a network, we verify a MAC protocol and determine the optimal number of ONUs(Optical Network Unit) that can be accepted by one OLT(Optical Line Terminal) and propose the suitable buffer size of ONU based on analyzing the end-to-end Ethernet delay, queuing delay, throughput, and utilization.

Recently, the location based service for moving customers is becoming one of the most important service in mobile communication area and for moving object applications, there are lots of update operations and such update loads are concentrated on some particular area unevenly. The primary processing of LBS application is spatio-temporal range queries and to improve the throughput of spatio-temporal range queries, the time of disk I/O in query processing should be reduced. In this paper, we adopt non-uniform two-level grid index structure, which are designed to minimize update operations. We propose query scheduling technique using spatial relationship and time relationship and a combined spatio-temporal query processing method using time zone concepts to improve the throughput of query processing. Some experimental results are shown for range queries with different query range to show the performance tradeoffs of the proposed methods.

The proposed FFT processor supports the 256-point FFT based on the modified radix-$2^6$ FFT algorithm. The proposed scheduling scheme can reduce the number of complex multipliers from eight to six without increasing delay buffers and computation cycles. Moreover, the proposed FFT processor can be used in OFDM systems required high throughput and low hardware complexity. The proposed FFT processor has been designed and implemented with a 90nm CMOS technology. The experimental result shows that the area of the proposed FFT processor is $0.27mm^2$. Furthermore, the proposed eight-parallel MDC FFT processor can achieve the throughput rate up to 2.7 GSample/s at 388MHz.

A public-key cryptography processor EC-RSA was designed, which integrates a 224-bit prime field elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) defined in the FIPS 186-2 as well as RSA with 2048-bit key length into a single hardware structure. A finite field arithmetic core used in both scalar multiplication for ECC and exponentiation for RSA was designed with 32-bit data-path. A lightweight implementation was achieved by an efficient hardware sharing of the finite field arithmetic core and internal memory for ECC and RSA operations. The EC-RSA processor was verified by FPGA implementation. It occupied 11,779 gate equivalents (GEs) and 14 kbit RAM synthesized with a 180-nm CMOS cell library and the estimated maximum clock frequency was 133 MHz. It takes 867,746 clock cycles for ECC scalar multiplication resulting in the estimated throughput of 34.3 kbps, and takes 26,149,013 clock cycles for RSA decryption resulting in the estimated throughput of 10.4 kbps.

Myopic method which is one of dynamic spectrum access method is an advantage that it maximizes immediate throughput is not complicated, and the simple and effective. The disadvantage of myopic method is that there may become less efficient because of conflicts between users secondary secondary user becomes many. Between the secondary if the secondary all users, select a channel to maximize the throughput of their own without considering the secondary other users, but it will try transfer secondary most users select the same channel collision will be more. Myopic / CA method has been proposed to solve this problem. Instead of selecting one channel to maximize their performance, select a candidate channels plurality of their advantage, the secondary user transfers to randomly selected channel that one in this way is a scheme. In this paper, we analyze whether it can be defined in a number of the channel number of candidates, depending on the network environment, maximizes the performance of the entire network.
