Abstract

Seamless wireless communication network access technology enables users to guarantee service continuity. Hence, it is necessary for disaster situations in which network service may be interrupted. The Multi-path router is a technology to improve network stability and strengthen field operability, particularly in a disaster environment where network failure can occur by providing high-performance data transmission using multi-communication networks and network security by VPN-based wireless IP. In this paper, a prototype system for an MPR-based wireless communication network was proposed to improve the operation performance for disaster field investigation applications. A comparative experiment was performed on various data transmission performances with the existing single wireless communication network. In addition, another experiment was conducted by measuring the data packet transmission and receiving performance in the existing/new wireless communication system first and then assessing the UDP transmission performance in a single router environment to understand the transmission capability of the new MPR. The experimental results showed that the sending and receiving performance was improved by approximately double that of the existing single wireless communication system. The proposed prototype system is expected to allow users to share and disseminate collected on-site data more quickly and efficiently during a disaster site investigation.

무선통신 네트워크의 끊김없는 접속 기술은 네트워크 사용자에게 서비스 지속성을 담보할 수 있으므로, 네트워크 서비스가 단절되는 상황을 극복해야 하는 재난 상황에서는 반드시 필요하다. MPR(Multiple Path Router)은 복수 통신망을 이용한 고성능 데이터 전송과 가상 사설망(VPN) 기반의 무선 IP 네트워크에서의 네트워크 보안을 제공함으로써 특히 네트워크 장애가 발생할 수 있는 재난사고 환경에서 네트워크 안정성과 운용성을 향상시킬 수 있는 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 재난사고 현장조사에서 무선통신망 운용성능을 개선하기 위하여 MPR기반의 무선통신망 프로토타입을 제안하였으며, 실제 기존의 단일 무선통신망 체계와의 다양한 데이터 전송성능에 대한 비교실험을 수행하였다. 성능평가 실험은 기존/신규 무선통신체계에서의 데이터 패킷 송·수신 성능과 신규 MPR의 전송 능력을 파악하기 위해 기존/신규 단일 라우터 환경에서의 UDP 전송성능을 주요 시간대(오전/오후/야간)별로 측정한 후 평가하였다. 이 실험을 통하여 기존 단일 무선통신 체계에 비해 약 2배 이상의 송수신 성능이 개선됨을 확인할 수 있었으며, 제안한 프로토타입 시스템을 활용하여 재난사고 현장조사시 보다 신속하고 효율적으로 현장 자료 공유와 전파가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
