Pseudolite is a contraction of the term "pseudo-satellite," used to refer to something that is not a satellite which performs a function commonly in the domain of satellites. Pseudolite are most often small transceivers that are used to create a local, ground-based GPS alternative. This paper proposes a clock synchronization scheme for pseudolite.

Inspired by the synchronization phenomena observed in the Nature, we propose an autonomous load balancing method for a wireless network. We model the load balancing problem of cells providing wireless access services as a synchronization problem in the Nature and design an algorithm for each cell to distribute loads in a self-determining way based on the load differences among its neighbor cells. Through simulations, we verify the feasibility of the proposed method in that cell loads can be balanced efficiently eve if cells make decision autonomously using their local information.

High-speed WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) systems operating in 5GHz band use OFDM transmission technique. OFDM technique transmits data in parallel and has many advantage compared with the serial transmission system-for example, robustness to time variance of channel. OFDM technique use the orthogonal multicarriers. The ICI(InterChannel Interference) caused by the orthogonality destruction between subcarriers. hamper the BER performance. In this paper, we propose the synchronization techniques for high-speed WLAN system designed to support user data rates up to 54Mbps at 5GHz. The proposed synchronization techniques are the reduced complexity structure having the similar performance compared with the conventional synchronization techniques.

When a single source of multimedia contents is distributed to multiple reproduction devices, the audio and video contents require synchronous play for multi-channel stereo sound and lip-synchronization. The multimedia system in vehicle, especially, has researched to move to wireless environments from legacy wired environments. This paper proposes the advanced algorithm for providing synchronized services of real-time multimedia traffic in IEEE 802.11 WLANs [1]. For these, we implement the advanced IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol [2] and the environments for simulation. Also, we estimate and analysis performance of the algorithm, then we experiment and analysis after the porting of algorithm in wireless LAN devices (Linksys wrt-350n AP network device) to characterize timing synchronization accuracy.

The number and use of Internet connected devices has dramatically increased in the last several years. Therefore many services synchronizing data in real-time is increasing such as mail, calendar and storage service. This service provides convenience to users. However, after devices are seized, the data could be changed because of characteristic about real-time synchronization. Therefore digital investigation could be difficult by this service. This work investigates the traces on each local device and proposes a method for the preservation of real-time synchronized data. Based on these, we propose the procedures of real-time synchronization data.

In this paper, we propose a distributed time synchronization technique for OFDMA- based wireless mesh communication systems. The proposed technique employs the bio-inspired algorithm for self-time synchronization in the physical layer. To achieve the network synchronicity, the proposed technique updates the transmission time and the FFT window using the TDoA information of received signals from the neighbor nodes. The proposed technique can achieve fast self-synchronization among nodes with a simple algorithm, without the need of a centralized controller. The performance of the proposed time synchronization technique is evaluated by simulation in terms of convergence speed and convergence probability.

Pseudolite is a contraction of the term "pseudo-satellite", used to refer to something that is not a satellite which performs a function commonly in the domain of satellites. Pseudolite are most often small transceivers that are used to create a local, ground-based GPS alternative. Pseudo-range measurement of pseudolite has around 300m range error, when time synchronization error of $1{\mu}sec$ occurs. Therefore the time synchronization methods play an important part in navigation augmentation using pseudolite. This paper proposes three clock synchronization methods that are installation method of pseudolite station, method using KRISS-UTC and method using PRN code phase difference for pseudolite. The simulation platform structure is presented for evaluating proposed clock synchronization performance.

It is possible to synchronize the spatio-temporal data with a server using a wireless network. These data has the benefit to be up-to-date and able to service to the user efficiently. However, the mobile devices or the wireless network are very vulnerable to various hard or soft failures. If an failure occurs during a synchronization process, the spatio-temporal data which is synchronizing could be inconsistent state. In this paper, we propose the recovery scheme to solve the problem caused by the errors which occur during the synchronization on mobile environments. The proposed scheme writes the log records for the synchronization process into the both local storages of the server and the mobile client. When the errors arise, the data which are synchronizing are recovered using the written log records. Also, we design and implement the proposed recovery scheme on the synchronization system.

본 논문에서는 클록들을 주기적으로 동기화하는 분산 실시간 시스템에서 주어진 태스크의 시간 제약(timing constraint)을 변환시는 구가지 기법을 제안한다. 전형적인 이산 클록 동기화(discrete clock synchronization)알고리즘은 클록의 값을 순간적으로 보정(correct)하여 클록의 시간이 불연속적으로 진행학 한다. 이러한 시간상의 불연속성은 태스크의 시작제한시간(release time)이나 종료시한(deadline)과 같은 이벤트를 잃어버리거나 다시 발생시키는 오류를 범하게 한다. 클록 시간의 불연속성을 피하기 위해 일반적으로 연속 클록 동기화(continuous clock synchronization) 기법이제안되었지만 소프트웨어적으로 구현되기에는 많은 오버헤드를 유발시키는 문제점이 있다. 이에 따라 연속 클록 동기화는 PLL (Phase-Locked Loop)을 이용한 별도의 하드웨어를 사용하는 것이 보통이다. 본 논문에서는 연속 클록 동기화 기법을 사용하는 대신, 태스크의 시간 제약을 동적으로 변환시키는 DCT (Dynamic Constraint Transformation) 기법을 제안하였다. DCT는 소프트웨어 으로 구현이 가능하여 새로운 하드웨어를 필요로 하지 않으며, 이를 통해 기존의 이산적으로 동기화된 시스템에서 클록 시간의 불연속성에 의한 문제점들을 해결할 수 있다. 또 다른 문제점으로서, 클록의 물리적인 특성으로 인해 동기화된 클록들이 상한된(bounded from the above)오차(skew)를 갖는다는 것이다. 이러한 오차는 지역 클록(local clock)에 대해 만족될 수 있는 임의의 실기간 제약 조건이 전역 클록(global clock)에 대해서는 만족되지 않을 수 있음을 의미한다. 본 논문에서는 이를 위해 먼저 두 가지의 스케줄링 가능성, 지역적 스케줄링 가능서(local schedulability)과 전역적 스케줄링 가능성(global schedulability)을 정의하고, 실시간 제약을 정적으로 변환시키는 SCT (Static Constraint Transformation)기법을 제안하였다. SCT를 통해 지역적으로 스케줄링 가능한 태스크는 전역적으로 스케줄링이 가능하므로, 단지 지역적 스케줄링 가능성만을 검사하면서 스케줄링 문제를 해결할 수 있도록 하였다.

Recently, changes in the environment of user-centric internet service such as blog, UCC and IPTV and ubiquitous computing based on web service are needed to high availability system platform. High availability system is to provide safe service continuously even if system failure occurs in clustering system at the network. And it is necessary to synchronize data for reliable service in high availability system. In this paper, I implement DRBD(Disk Replicated Block Device) which is synchronization technique for data of local disks in high availability system.
