The NGN (Next Generation Network) means the kernel infrastructure technology to provide information and communication services which are able to be used at present and future when a ubiquitous computing era has been realized. In other words, NGN can be the frame providing the same information and communication services anytime and anywhere regardless of wire and wireless. The broadband convergence network that has been built in the public institution has established a broadband multimedia communication network supporting voice telephone, task net, internet network, video conference network, voice over IP (VoIP) network and etc. It is possible for a requested bandwidth and services to be served, only if a broadband convergence network provide the interoperability between the various classes which include a transport network layer, network control layer, service control layer and other layers. In this paper, we analyzed the interoperability issues of the present broadband convergence network and propose a guideline for the future one.

Broadcasting telecommunication convergence service means a service where broadcasting and telecommunication converge. Recently with the advancement of technology, broadcasting telecommunication convergence service has been evolving to provide multimedia contents through various devices including wired and wireless network environment. Up to now, IPTV and smartphone-based convergence services have been dominant, but more developed and evolved technology and media will appear in the future. In order to derive the next generation broadcasting telecommunication convergence service supporting model, this study derives an evaluation model of broadcasting telecommunication convergence service and presents a case of evaluation of 30 demonstration projects supported by the Korean government from 2010 to 2014. In this study, we derive an evaluation model and evaluate the demonstration projects by reflecting the position of the main stake holders of service such as users, experts, and related organizational institutions, away from the existing simple service evaluation method. Expert questionnaire used AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method, and the evaluation results were divided into upper and lower groups to provide key implications by a gap analysis. From this analysis this study suggests guidelines for next generation broadcasting telecommunication service support projects. The next generation broadcasting convergence service business should be based on open platform type in terms of service type. In terms of service media, it should be centered on open devices such as smart phones and smart TVs. In terms of types of business responsibilities, it should be led by public organizations and it is necessary to increase the fund matching ratio by at least 62% when the private sector participates.

Mobile computing refers to an emerging new computing environment incorporating both wireless and wired high-speed networking technologies. In the near future, it is expected that mobile users will have access to a wide variety of services that will be made available over highspeed networks. The quality of these services in the high-speed networks can be specified in terms of several QoS paameters. The important QoS parameter in mobile computings is the guarantee for seamless communication which is to provide disruption free service to mobile users. A disruption in service could occur due to active handoffs. This paper proposes an extended staggened muticast approach which provides a probabilistic guarantee for disruption free service. The extended staggerd multicast approach estimates mobility direction and mobility velocity for a user. It is possible that data packets for a mobile host are multicasted to not all neighbor cells but a part of neighbor cells on the basis of these information. Therefore, the extended staggered multicast significantly reduces the static network bandwidth usage also provides a probabilistic guarantee for disruption free service.

The first geostationary satellite made by Korea, COMS, has the three different payload ; Meteorological sensor, Oceanographic sensor and Ka-band communication payload. There are Meteorological & Ocean Data Communication Subsystem(MODCS) and Telemetry, Command and Ranging Subsystem(TC&R) as other RF radiation sources. MODCS transmits and receives Meteo and Ocean measurement data from/to earth using L-band and TC&R using S-band. The Ka-band communication payload will provide high-speed multimedia services and communication services for natural disaster such as prediction, prevention, and recovery services in the government communications network.Ka-band beacon is for the earth antenna pointing and the experiment of rain fading. This paper gives the analysis results about the mutual radiation effect on Ka-band communication payload, Ka-band beacon, MODCS and TC&R. Up/Down link power and coupling factor including the geometrical position and distance of antenna, filter rejection and degradation factor due to the different polarization are considered. The results show MODCS and TC&R are compatible for Ka-band communication payload and Ka-band beacon does not interfere with MODCS and TC&R normal operation.

Almost every mobile phone supports MMS to send and receive multimedia messages among users. MMS is suitable for different types of mobile phones and effectively operates in wireless environments. So the mobile content delivery method using MMS can be efficient. However, there would be some problems if a mobile service provider tries to deliver mobile content to subscribers by using the existing MMS. In this paper, we propose an improved data transmission and control scheme for MMS. Our scheme assists mobile service providers to deliver mobile contents easily by modifying the MMS system software. By using our scheme, mobile service providers are able to manage mobile contents stored in mobile devices. Therefore, they can provide various services such as mobile daily news service, automatic software upgrade service, mobile advertising service, etc. We verify the possibility of the proposed scheme through simulation.

Due to the rapid development of wireless communication technology, demands on data services in mobile computing environment are gradually increasing. In mobile computing environments, a mobile host began to use cache to overcome the weak point. Caching at mobile host could reduce the bandwidth consumption and query response time, but mobile host must maintain cache consistency. In this paper, we propose a cache consistency strategy to consider the period of data usage. The server allows an effective broadcasting by classifying data into two groups of periodic and non-periodic. By classifying the data, it prevent from elimination of cache after disconnection of periodic data by using expired time. By storing IR(Invalidation Report) messages, this scheme divides cached data by selection after disconnection. Consequently, we have shown much improvement in total consumption of bandwidth than the conventional scheme.

The IMS is an architectural control framework for delivering IP multimedia services such as voice, video, audio and data, the IMS supports not only the mobile communication system but also the existing wired and wireless network based on IP. The network that is integrated by the IMS needs policy-based network management protocol for managing the limited network resources to provide efficient multimedia service. The IMS use additional device called PDF for efficient resource management, but the PDF only uses diameter which is one of the network management protocol such as SNMP and COPS. Many devices use various protocol to manage the limited network resources. There is an algorithm using a variety of protocols such as Diameter, COPS and SNMP to handle the resources management efficiently. We also analyze the performance using the proposed algorithm in the implemented IMS environment.
