  • In this paper, we design and verify the hardware circuit that performs PLCP(Physical Layer Convergence Protocol) protocol functions of physical layer in IEEE 802.11 frequency hopping WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network). Altera MAX+PLUS I $I^{〔1〕}$ is used as a design tool. The designed circuit consists of control register module to interface with upper layer, FIFO module to transmit/receive data with upper layer, TX function module, and RX function module. It is verified that the developed circuit conforms well to the IEEE 802.11 standard specification and can support both 1Mbps and 2 Mbps transmission rate by simulation. The developed circuits can be utilized for the implementation of protocol processor in wireless LAN areas.

  • Visible light communication (VLC) is considered a strong future candidate for indoor wireless communication. However, its performance seems to be relatively unsatisfactory when compared to wireless local area network (WLAN) communication using millimeter waves. To improve the performance of VLC, numerous technologies have been proposed so far, in both electrical and optical domains. Among the proposals, optical beamforming (OB) is an optical-domain technology that can concentrate light in a specific direction or on a target spot. It can significantly improve VLC performance and can be widely used, because it does not depend on electrical modulation schemes. Therefore, this review discusses the concept, principle, and types of OB, the structure of a VLC system using OB, performance results of OB, and the combination of OB with electrical signal modulation in VLC. OB is expected to be one of the key techniques in future VLC implementations, similar to radio-frequency beamforming in millimeter-wave communication.

  • Regarding some of tire important works in tire shipyard, like tire production process, quality control, and material handling, there are many elements that disturb tire work-flaw. For example, there are mistakes in manufacturing, delay of production, and poor quality. These kinds of disturbances are from tire delay of communication time between tire production field and tire management. Therefore, it would be possible to strengthen tire competitiveness of shipbuilding industries by applying tire information technology based on Wireless Local Area Network (Wireless LAN), in order to establish tire multi-possession of real time production information in limited large shipbuilding yard. In this study, tire construction concept of tire information system, based on Wireless LAN, is proposed to build communication infrastructures in shipyards. The various information regarding shipbuilding inspection, process management, and material flaw are analyzed and constructed to databases in tire middle ware system, as tire platform for using Personal Display Agent (PDA). At last, tire middle ware system, which delivers tire information, is developed by tire C$\sharp$ and Microsoft.net; also, tire PDA application system is structured in WinCE O/S, and is tested and evaluated under tire server linked condition.

  • IEEE 802.11 wireless local area network (WLAN) has become the prevailing solution for wireless Internet access while transport control protocol (TCP) is the dominant transport-layer protocol in the Internet. It is known that, in an infrastructure-based WLAN with multiple stations carrying long-lived TCP flows, the number of TCP stations that are actively contending to access the wireless channel remains very small. Hence, the aggregate TCP throughput is basically independent of the total number of TCP stations. This phenomenon is due to the closed-loop nature of TCP flow control and the bottleneck downlink (i.e., access point-to-station) transmissions in infrastructure-based WLANs. In this paper, we develop a comprehensive analytical model to study TCP dynamics in infrastructure-based 802.11 WLANs. We calculate the average number of active TCP stations and the aggregate TCP throughput using our model for given total number of TCP stations and the maximum TCP receive window size. We find out that the default minimum contention window sizes specified in the standards (i.e., 31 and 15 for 802.11b and 802.11a, respectively) are not optimal in terms of TCP throughput maximization. Via ns-2 simulation, we verify the correctness of our analytical model and study the effects of some of the simplifying assumptions employed in the model. Simulation results show that our model is reasonably accurate, particularly when the wireline delay is small and/or the packet loss rate is low.

  • Using sensor devices applied to various objects will be needed wireless network that it is easy to install in them. Tiny devices configured to processor that bas comparatively low computing ability are inappropriate to use devices that are wireless LAN, etc. In result, network devices needed to not only have simple communication protocol, but have Plug and Play function that it works as soon as it connects without installing any device driver. it also will industrially have both low power and low cost because of mobility of it. From IEEE 802.11 standard, WPAN(Wireless Personal Area Network) included in LAN is being developed by WPAN WG(Working Group) on area with low power consumption and low complexity. In addition to, it is standardizing MAC and PRY of the standard that is expected to wirelessly communicate within 10m. WPAN will be used generally in the more near future because of both low power and low cost of Zigbee. In this paper we designed zigbee based user authentication module for a automotive smart-key system.
