Many systems are developing for the realization of NCW(Network Centric Warfare). UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) Network is attracting attention in a lot of military applications. In general, UAVs have the potential to create an ad-hoc network and greatly reduce the hops from source to destination. However, UAV networks exhibit unique properties such as high mobility, high data rate, and real time service. The routing protocols are required to design the multi-hop routing protocols that can dynamically adapt to the requirements of UAV network. In this paper we analyse Geographic Routing Protocol is based on geographical distance between source and destination for efficient and reliable transmission. Geographic Routing Protocol is evaluated in video service scenarios with TDMA model in our simulation. The simulation results show that the performance of Geographic Routing Protocol is better than the MANET Routing Protocol in terms of packet received ratio, end to end delay, and routing traffic sent.

In order for an autonomous vehicle to be commercialized, it is necessary to conduct a safety test for every aspect. Considering the implementation of the autonomous vehicles technologies to the highest level, it is necessary to analyze the possible scenarios in the most complex environment as in the urban area. It should be confirmed whether autonomous vehicles can be operated with conventional traffic signal environment. It is also required to confirm the ability of autonomous vehicles in interacting with other vehicles, and coping with possible accidents on the road. In this study, the evaluation factors of autonomous vehicles in the road environment are selected by referring to the other evaluation protocols like ADAS. Study result would be reflected in establishing the autonomous vehicle evaluation method for different test environment along with various technology implementation level.

This paper considers the multi-objective optimization of a multi-service arrayed waveguide grating-based single-hop WDM network with the two conflicting objectives of maximizing throughput while minimizing delay. This paper presents a genetic algorithm based methodology for finding the optimal throughput-delay tradeoff curve, the so-called Pareto-optimal frontier. Genetic algorithm based methodology provides the network architecture parameters and the Medium Access Control protocol parameters that achieve the Pareto-optima in a computationally efficient manner. The numerical results obtained with this methodology provide the Pareto-optimal network planning and operation solution for a wide range of traffic scenarios. The presented methodology is applicable to other networks with a similar throughput-delay tradeoff.

Recently, femtocell has been concerned as one of effective solutions to relieve shadow region and provide high quality services to users in indoor environments. Even though femtocell offers various benefits to cellular operators and users, many technical issues, such as interference coordination, network synchronization, self-configuration, self-optimization, and so on, should be solved to deploy the femtocell in current network. In this paper, we develop a simulator for evaluating performance of long term evolution (LTE) femtocell systems under various interference scenarios. The simulator consists of a main-module and five sub-modules. The main-module connects and manages five sub-modules which have the functionality managing user mobility, packet scheduling, call admission control, traffic generation, and modulation and coding scheme (MCS). To provide user convenience, the simulator adopts graphical user interface (GUI) which can observes simulation results in real time. We expect that this simulator can contribute to developing effective femtocell systems by supporting a tool for analyzing the effect of interference between macrocell and femtocell.

The safety applications based on the IEEE 802.11p, periodically transmit the safety-related information to all surrounding vehicles with high reliability and a strict timeline. However, due to the high vehicle mobility, dynamic network topology and limited network resource, the fixed beacon scheduling scheme excess delay and packet loss due to the channel contention and network congestion. With this motivation, we propose a novel beacon scheduling algorithm referred to as spatial-aware(SA) beacon scheduling based on the spatial context information, dynamically rescheduling the beaconing rate like a TDMA channel access scheme. The proposed SA beacon scheduling algorithm was evaluated using different highway traffic scenarios with both a realistic channel model and 802.11p model in our simulation. The simulation results showed that the performance of our proposed algorithm was better than the fixed scheduling in terms of throughput, channel access delay, and channel load. Also, our proposed algorithm is satisfy the requirements of vehicular safety application.

In this paper, we explain the development procedure for a WLAN (IEEE 802.l1b Wireless Lan) handoff simulator using OPNET Modeler 9.0 and analyze the handoff performance when TCP and UDP traffic is applied. Because the BSS (Basic Service Set) is set only once at the beginning of a simulation in WLAN model supported by OPNET Modeler 9.0, the discontinuation of the communication between MS (Mobile Station) and AP (Access Point) is occurred by the migration of the MS from one BSS to another. We implement a handoff simulator based on this WLAN model and analyze handoff performance in various scenarios Also, we propose a new handoff algorithm which prevents TCP timeout by analyzing the problems of the handoff using the simulator.

Radio frequency (RF) jamming is a denial of service attack targeted at wireless networks. In resource-hungry scenarios with constant traffic demand, jamming can create connectivity problems and seriously affect communication. Therefore, the vulnerabilities of wireless networks must be studied. In this study, we investigate a particular type of RF jamming that exploits the semantics of physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layer protocols. This can be extended to any wireless communication network whose protocol characteristics and operating frequencies are known to the attacker. We propose two efficient jamming techniques: A low-data-rate random jamming and a shot-noise based protocol-aware RF jamming. Both techniques use shot-noise pulses to disrupt ongoing transmission ensuring they are energy efficient, and they significantly reduce the detection probability of the jammer. Further, we derived the tight upper bound on the duration and the number of shot-noise pulses for Wi-Fi, GSM, and WiMax networks. The proposed model takes consider the channel access mechanism employed at the MAC layer, data transmission rate, PHY/MAC layer modulation and channel coding schemes. Moreover, we analyze the effect of different packet sizes on the proposed jamming methodologies. The proposed jamming attack models have been experimentally evaluated for 802.11b networks on an actual testbed environment by transmitting data packets of varying sizes. The achieved results clearly demonstrate a considerable increase in the overall jamming efficiency of the proposed protocol-aware jammer in terms of packet delivery ratio, energy expenditure and detection probabilities over contemporary jamming methods provided in the literature.

WAVE(Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments) is a representative V2V communication protocol and its standards of MAC and PHY parts except for security were published. In order to control traffic flow and ensure driver's safety using V2V communication, various projects are conducting. In particular, safety application has been researched. Therefore, in this paper, we designed the safety application algorithm, which informs a driver of the dangerous status when driver tries to turn left in an intersection and we also implemented the algorithm. Proposed algorithm configures a model for a host vehicle and a vehicle coming in opposite lane and in case that there is collision hazard it provides warning message to driver by using HMI. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm's performance, we configured the test bed using test vehicles and we tested the algorithm on proving ground with the composed test scenarios. As test results, our system showed excellent performance. If the infrastructures for V2I communications are constructed, we will optimize our system more precisely and stably.

Recently, the automobile industry has developed ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) to prevent traffic accidents and reduce driver's driving burden. Among the ADAS, the LKAS (Lane Keeping Assistance System) is a support system for the convenience and safety of the driver, and the main function is to maintain the driving lane of the vehicle. LKAS is a system that uses radar sensor and camera sensor to collect information about the position of the vehicle in the lane and to support keeping the lane through control if necessary. In many countries, LKAS has already been commercialized and the convenience and safety of drivers have been improved. The international LKAS evaluation test procedure is being developed and discussed by standardization committees such as the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and the Euro NCAP (New Car Assessment Program). In Korean, the LKAS test method is specified in the KNCAP (Korean New Car Assessment Program), but the evaluation method is not defined. Therefore, the LKAS test procedure that meets international standards and is suitable for domestic road environment is necessary. In this paper, development of LKAS test evaluation scenarios that meets international standards and considering domestic road environment, and the formula that can evaluate the result value after control as the relative distance of lane and the front wheel are suggested. And a comparative analysis was conducted to verify the validity of the suggested scenario and formula. The test evaluation was conducted using the vehicle equipped with the LKAS.
