A wireless bridge is essential to transmit control and managing information to sensors or instruments from a central integrated ship area network station. In this paper, a WPAN protocol is adopted for development of a seamless N-screen wireless service in Indoor and Ship Area Networks. Furthermore, to provide the OSMU (One Source Multi Use) N-screen service through P2P streaming in the seamless WPAN protocol, a Grid-based WPAN networking technology is proposed and analyzed. The proposed Grid-based WPAN networking technology supports multi-path and fast path-setup functions for N-screen communications. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed Grid-based WPAN networking technology outperforms the IEEE 802.15.4 based network in terms of N-screen transmission delay.

This paper. we investigate the OFDM-based wireless LAN systems operating in the 60 GHz frequency band as part of the fourth-generation (4G) systems. The 60 GHz band is of much interest since this is the band in which a massive amount of spectral space (5 GHz) has been allocated worldwide for dense wireless local communications. This paper gives an overview of 60 GHz indoor wireless channel characteristics and an effect on phase noise. The performance of OFDM system is severely degraded by the local oscillator phase noise, which causes both common phase error and inter-carrier interference. We provide the exact analysis of the phase noise effect on the OFDM system.

We report an experimental demonstration of $4{\times}4$ multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless visible light communications (VLC) using a charge-coupled device image sensor receiver instead of a photodiode receiver. An image sensor is a kind of digital camera, which is used in most mobile devices such as smart phones or laptop computers and a promising commercial candidate for a VLC receiver. The transmission distance of the experimental result is over 10 m, enough for most indoor communication applications. We expect that the MIMO VLC technique based on image sensor receivers can be widely used with the development of high-speed image sensors.

In this paper, we presented the paper-based reconfigurable frequency selective surface(FSS) for transmitting or blocking the wireless LAN signal in indoor environments. The proposed reconfigurable FSS are designed on coated paper using a printing of conductive ink and conductive adhesive for PIN diode, which provides ON/OFF of the reconfigurable FSS for passing or blocking the 5GHz signal. The reconfigurable FSS attached on the wall can pass or block the incident wireless signal as the received signal strength in indoor. To provide the validity of the proposed FSS, we fabricated the reconfigurable FSS on the paper and confirmed the very similar results between simulations and measurements. From the measured results of the proposed spectrum control system, we know that the proposed reconfigurable FSS can block about 20dB at 5.745GHz~5.805GHz.

In this paper, we propose a rapid and reliable signal acquisition scheme for UWB (Ultra Wide Band) systems in typical indoor wireless channels. The proposed scheme is a two-step search with different thresholds and search window applied to a single correlator, where each step utilizes the single-dwell search with the bit reversal. Simulation results in IEEE 802. I5 Task Group .3a UWB indoor wireless channel show that the proposed scheme for the LHWB signals can achieve significant reduction of the required mean acquisition time as compared to the conventional single-dwell bit reversal search and double-dwell bit reversal search with more complex structure employing two correlators for various threshold levels. In addition, it is also observed that the proposed scheme can achieve much faster and reliable signal acquisition in noisy environments.

In this paper, we analyze the performance of BPM (Bi-Phase Modulation) UWB (Ultra Wide Band) multiple access system using PN (Pseudo Noise) code based time hopping sequence in indoor wireless channels. In particular, we compare BPM UWB multiple access system with PPM (Pulse Position Modulation) UWB multiple access system in terms of signalling and demodulation schemes. Moreover, we analytically evaluate the performance of these UWB systems by deriving the bit error rate expressions under the assumption that pulse energy and data transmission rate are identical for both systems. Simulation results in additive white Gaussian noise and realistic indoor multipath wireless channels show that the performance of BPM scheme is approximately 1 dB better than that of PPM scheme. However, the performance discrepancy becomes negligible as the number of users increases.

Recent advancement in wireless communications and electronics has enabled the development of low power sensor network. Wireless sensor network are often used in remote monitoring control applications, health care, security and environmental monitoring. Wireless sensor networks are an emerging technology consisting of small, low-power, and low-cost devices that integrate limited computation, sensing, and radio communication capabilities. Sensor network platform for health care has been designed, fabricated and tested. This system consists of an embedded micro-controller, Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver, power management, I/O expansion, and serial communication (RS-232). The hardware platform uses Atmel ATmega128L 8-bit ultra low power RISC processor with 128KB flash memory as the program memory and 4KB SRAM as the data memory. The radio transceiver (Chipcon CC1000) operates in the ISM band at 433MHz or 916MHz with a maximum data rate of 76.8kbps. Also, the indoor radio range is approximately 20-30m. When many sensors have to communicate with the controller, standard communication interfaces such as Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) or Integrated Circuit ($I^{2}C$) allow sharing a single communication bus. With its low power, the smallest and low cost design, the wireless sensor network system and wireless sensing electronics to collect health-related information of human vitality and main physiological parameters (ECG, Temperature, Perspiration, Blood Pressure and some more vitality parameters, etc.)

In this paper, an indoor propagation model based on 3d ray tracing is presented for wireless communications. In case of indoor propagation models, various radio propagation paths such as wall-transmitted wave and scattered wave from ceilings, pillars, and furnitures arises and 3-D formulation is needed. To accommodate such scatterers, objects are modeled by triangulated surfaces and ray tubes using those surfaces are introduced and efficient calculation methods using the tubes are presented.

In this paper, an asynchronous multi-rate optical wireless pulse position modulation-code division multiple access (PPM-CDMA) is proposed for an indoor non-directed diffuse channel. As a signature sequence for CDMA, an optical orthogonal code (OOC) is used and an interference cancellation scheme is applied to improve the bit error rate. It is known that the optical PPM-CDMA has advantages due to its power efficiency. Moreover, it provides multi-rate services by varying the modulation level with fixed pulse duration. In the proposed multi-rate PPM-CDMA system with fixed pulse duration, chip rate and sampling time do not change for each transmission rate and this simplifies overall system structure.
