Abstract
The performance of data transmission from mobile devices to cloud storages is limited by the amount of data being transferred, communication speed and battery consumption of mobile devices. Especially, when the large-scale data communication takes place using mobile devices, such as smart phones, the performance turbulence and power consumption become an obstacle to establish the reliable communication environment. In this paper, we present an efficient data transmission method using USB Hijacking. In our approach, the synchronization to transfer a large amount of data between mobile devices and user PC is executed by using USB Hijacking. Also, there is no need to concern about data capacity and battery consumption in the data communication. We presented several experimental results to verify the effectiveness and suitability of our approach.
