This paper presents a new concept of IP-based wireless sensor networks and also introduces a routing protocol that is based on clustering for global healthcare information system. Low-power wireless personal area networks (LoWPANs) conform the standard by IEEE 802.15.4-2003 to IPv6 that makes 6lowpan. It characterized by low bit rate, low power, and low cost as well as protocol for wireless connections. The 6lowpan node with biomedical sensor devices fixed on the patient body area network that should be connected to the gateway in personal area network. Each 6lowpan nodes have IP-addresses that would be directly connected to the internet. With the help of IP-address service provider can recognize or analysis patient biomedical data from anywhere on globe by internet service provider equipments such as cell phone, PDA, note book. The system has been evaluated by technical verification, clinical test, user survey and current status of patient. We used NS-2.33 simulator for our prototype and also simulate the routing protocols. The result shows the performance of biomedical data packets in multi-hope routing as well as represents the topology of the networks.

Recent advances in cognitive radio technology have drawn immense attention to higher layer protocols above medium access control, such as transmission control protocol (TCP). Most proposals to improve the TCP performance in cognitive radio (CR) networks have assumed that either all nodes are in CR networks or the TCP sender side is in CR links. In those proposals, lower layer information such as the CR link status could be easily exploited to adjust the congestion window and improve throughput. In this paper, we consider a TCP network in which the TCP sender is located remotely over the Internet while the TCP receiver is connected by a CR link. This topology is more realistic than the earlier proposals, but the lower layer information cannot be exploited. Under this assumption, we propose an enhanced TCP protocol for CR networks called TCP for cognitive radio (TCP-CR) to improve the existing TCP by (1) detection of primary user (PU) interference by a remote sender without support from lower layers, (2) delayed congestion control (DCC) based on PU detection when the retransmission timeout (RTO) expires, and (3) exploitation of two separate scales of the congestion window adapted for PU activity. Performance evaluation demonstrated that the proposed TCP-CR achieves up to 255% improvement of the end-to-end throughput. Furthermore, we verified that the proposed TCP does not deteriorate the fairness of existing TCP flows and does not cause congestions.

Unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs) operating in the military for various purposes are designed to transmit information collected according to the purpose to GCS(Ground Control System), and to transmit/receive the vehicle's operational control and status information using wireless communication(or datalink). Currently, the military UAV systems in operation in Korea use unique communication methods, protocols, and message structures for each system. In this paper, we analyze the TM/TC data protocol of two types of military UAV systems currently under development and propose a more efficient TM/TC message design scheme in wireless communication(or datalink) environment. And we will discuss issues to be considered for standardization of technology for ensuring interoperability with many UAVs or newly introduced UAV systems.

In this paper, we proposed and implemented an EPCglobal Reader Manegement (RM) based management protocol. Using RFID Reader's management function, we could diagnose an active RFID Reader concretely which was impossible with only using Reader protocols and check the problem quickly when the RFID Reader is in failure. When diagnosing RFID Readers using the proposed RM based management protocol, we can check on their failure in stages and specifically, and can estimate range of failure. This helps RFID Reader's fast recovery, reduce loss of failure and improve QoS. We could get reader information with almost same overhead compared with the management message in LLRP. And we could get more information about RFID Reader's operation status.

WAVE(Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment)에서 V2V(Vehicle to Vehicle) 통신 시 OBU(On Board Unit)인 자동차 단말은 수신한 정보가 제대로 된 정보인지를 확인하는 과정에서 공인인증서가 필요하다. 동시에 자동차 단말은 이 공인인증서의 상태가 유효한 지를 확인해야 한다. 이것을 확인하는 방법은 자동차 단말이 도로변에 설치돼 있는 RSU(Road Side Unit)인 OCSP(Online Certificate Status Protocol) 서버에게 공인인증서의 상태 확인 요청을 하는 것이다. OCSP 서버는 자동차 단말의 요청에 응답하기 위해서 인증서 폐지 목록인 CRL(Certificate Revocation List)을 가지고 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 WAVE 시스템의 OCSP 서버가 공인인증서 상태 정보를 자동차 단말로 알려줄 수 있도록 하기 위해 CA(Certificate Authority)의 CRL 저장소로부터 CRL 을 업데이트 하는 프로토콜을 제안한다. OCSP 서버가 CRL 을 업데이트 할 때, OCSP 서버가 가지고 있는 CRL 과 CRL 저장소가 가지고 있는 CRL 의 값을 비교하여 두 값이 같은 경우에는 CRL 을 업데이트 하지 않도록 한다. OCSP 서버가 선택적으로 CRL 을 업데이트 함으로써 불필요한 부하를 줄일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this research is to extend Ad-hoc network system lifetime with the proposed routing protocol which has considered hop lifetimes of the nodes while guaranteeing QoS in the establishment process of Ad-hoc network communication paths. Based on another power aware routing system that proposed in the advanced research [1], we are proposing an alternative power aware routing system in which nodes' hop lifetimes are compared in order to extend the lifetime of an Ad-hoc network system and delay factors have been considered for the assurance of QoS. The research of the routing protocol in this paper, which aims to maximize the system survival time considering power consumption status during the path searching in MANET and pursues the mechanism that controls hop delays for the same reason, can be applied to the study of WSN. The study concerning such phenomena is essential so that the proposed protocol has been simulated and verified with NS-2 in Linux system focusing on the lifetimes of the hops of the nodes. Commercialization of smart devices and arrival of the ubiquitous age has brought about the world where all the people and things are connected with networks. Since the proposed power aware method and the hop delay control mechanism used to find the adequate communication paths in MANET which mainly uses batteries or in WSN, they can largely contribute to the lifetime extension of the network system by reducing power consumptions when utilized for the communications attempts among soldiers during military operation, disaster areas, temporary events or exhibitions, mobile phone shadow areas, home networks, in-between vehicle communications and sense networks, etc. This paper presents the definitions and some advantages regarding the proposed outing protocol that sustain and extend the lifetime of the networks.

To guarantee QoS (Quality of Service), routers should determine routing paths satisfying service requirements, based on link state information as well as network topology. Link status database (LSD) in routers should be efficiently managed to effectively reflect the current state of all links. However, there is a trade off between the exact reflection of the current link status and its update cost. For exactly reflecting the current link status, each router immediately notifies its neighbors that link state information is changed. This may degrade performance of the router due to the processing of link state update messages. On the other side, if the current link state information is not updated appropriately, a route setup request can be rejected because of the discrepancy between the current link state information and previously updated link state information in LSD. In this paper, we propose a traffic variation based link state update algorithm for adaptively controlling the generation of link state update messages and compare its performance with those of four existing algorithms by intensive simulations.

Although the Distributed Coordination Function is the fundamental access protocol of IEEE 802.11, it cannot meet the Quality of Service (QoS) requirements in general. So, the Point Coordinate Function is provided to support QoS related services. However, it has inherent problems. Access point (AP) has no knowledge of the queue status and instantaneous channel condition of stations in the system. In this paper we propose an efficient and versatile polling scheduler that shows excellent throughput and fairness performance. Comparison with well known polling schemes is provided through computer simulation under various channel situations including error prone environments.

High-rate wireless personal area network (HR-WPAN) has been standardized by the IEEE 802.15.3 task group (TG). To support multimedia services, the IEEE 802.15.3 TG adopts a time-slotted medium access control (MAC) protocol controlled by a central device. In the time division multiple access (TDMA)-based wireless packet networks, the packet scheduling algorithm plays a key role in quality of service (QoS) provisioning for multimedia services. In this paper, we propose an adaptive cross-layer packet scheduling method for the TDMA-based HR-WPAN. Physical channel conditions, MAC protocol, link layer status, random traffic arrival, and QoS requirement are taken into consideration by the proposed packet scheduling method. Performance evaluations are carried out through extensive simulations and significant performance enhancements are observed. Furthermore, the performance of the proposed scheme remains stable regardless of the variable system parameters such as the number of devices (DEVs) and delay bound.

In this paper The embedded Web or Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server allows embedded systems developers to take advantage of a network infrastructure that is already in place to enhance their designs and provide new features for their customers. It has gained acceptance as a protocol for gleaning information from a wide variety of sources and its open extensible nature makes it suitable for the full range of networked embedded systems. Many companies are already building Web browser support into smart-phones and network computers, but the other end of the connection also has great potential for many more classes of embedded system. Once fitted with an embedded Web server, a device can report its status to any client on the network and can even be reprogrammed remotely to perform new tasks.
