  • 발행 : 2016.03.31

초록

본고에서는 5세대 이동통신 핵심기술 중 하나인 전이중 (full-duplex) 전송기술의 이득을 성취할 수 있는 새로운 접근 방법인 가상 전이중 (virtual full-duplex) 중계전송 기법에 대해서 알아본다. 이는 아직 실제적인 제약들을 해결해야 하는 전이중 중계전송 기술의 대안으로 반이중 (half-duplex) 중계기 2개를 하나의 가상 중계기로 고려함으로써 네트워크 차원에서는 송신과 수신이 동시에 이루어지도록 하여 전이중 중계전송의 효과를 얻는 기술이다. 본고에서는 먼저, 중계기에서 메모리를 고려하지 않고, 2개의 중계기를 번갈아 가면서 사용하는 2경로 (two-path) 교차 (alternating) 중계전송 기법을 살펴보고, 다음으로 중계기에 버퍼를 장착한 다수 중계기 네트워크에서 가상 전이중 중계전송 기법에 대해서 알아본다.
