Abstract

In TETRA(TErrestrial Trunked RAdio) standard, TMO(Trunked Mode Operation) communicates with the UE through the base station and it has a higher priority than DMO(Direct Mode Operation) which communicates with UE directly for channel allocation. As a result, the UE needs an algorithm which restricts the frequency allocation by TMO so that DMO can have a successful communication within the network. However, the TETRA DMO standard does not consider this issue. In this paper, we propose an active DMO channel selection algorithm which allocates a channel based on some additional information such as channel usage state of TMO and channel utilization of DMO. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms existing DMO channel allocation scheme in terms of the transmission efficiency.

TETRA(TErrestrial Trunked RAdio)는 항상 기지국을 통해서 통신을 하는 TMO(Trunked Mode Operation)가 기지국 없이 단말기간 직접 통신을 하는 DMO(Direct Mode Operation) 보다 주파수 채널의 할당에 있어 우선순위를 가지고 있다. 이 때문에 단말간 통신인 DMO를 안정적으로 운용하기 위해서는 단말이 TMO로 할당된 주파수 채널을 회피할 수 있는 알고리즘이 필요하나 현재의 TETRA DMO 표준에는 이에 관한 사항이 반영되어 있지 않다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이웃 노드(기지국 혹은 단말)로부터 TMO 주파수 채널 현황 및 DMO 주파수 이용률에 관한 추가 정보를 제공받아 단말 스스로 최적의 DMO 주파수 채널을 선택할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 성능평가를 통하여 제안 알고리즘이 기존의 DMO 주파수 채널 할당 방식에 비해 평균 전송효율이 우수함을 증명하였다.
