Recently, the multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(MB-OFDM) system, one of UWB system, can satisfy the requirement and can be applied to various wireless communication services because ultra-wideband(UWB) is a wireless communication technique that supports high data rate with low power. In this paper, the method applying Alamouti's space time block code(STBC) and cyclic delay diversity(CDD) is proposed. The proposed method can be easily applied with arbitrary number of relays and only needs two time slots of quasi stationary assumption. And it is applied to the MB-OFDM system. Second, an optimal relaying scheme based on decode-and-forward(DF) method is proposed which is provides good error performance compared to conventional schemes.

Recently, the management system of wastewater treatment facility has magnified due to the stringent regulations for the protection of the environment, and a sewage treatment plant efficiency and research of the car development are activated in large facilities or industrial park. however, the existing sewerage disposal system and specific water quality monitoring network reliability for real-time transmission of this building is insufficient. In this paper, we proposed a local wireless network design for sludge multi meter data collection and control for measuring the concentration of the sludge efficiently. Also, the collected data over the local wireless network to transmitted to the central monitoring system and accumulate the data in real time to calculate statistics is possible to monitor the status of the sewage treatment facilities. The proposed system uses a short-range wireless networks of IEEE 802.15.4 and configures an IEEE 802.11 network which can monitor real-time status in central system. Also, we install a sludge multimeter and communication network in sewage treatment facilities and confirm the usefulness of the proposed technique by demonstrating its effectiveness.

Token ring systems which control to switch the data stream of networks by passing the token have been widely used to medium access controls in many ring or bus topology LANs. The system could be modeled for analysis as single-server-multi-queue system of the cyclic service method. These concepts could be expanded to multi-token ring systems interconnected with single ring consisting of bridges implemented simply to be stored and transmitted. In the proposal for the performance analysis of the interconnected token ring system, in has been assumed M/G/1 queueing model that frame arrivals are the Poisson process at each station queue and frame sizes are independently and identically distributed. And the average time delays were analyzed mathematically for arbitrary frame transferred from source station to destination area. The time delay of the frame transmission could be explained as the sum of the average time which the token passed from arbitrary position to source station, such as the waiting time in the source station transferring the previous arrival frames, and the propagation time from source station to interdestinated point. These delays were given as the sum of the duration from inner and outer bridge queues, the time delays from inner and outer bridge queues, and the time from outer bridge queue to destination station. These results were investigated by varing parameters effected to total time delays. In the results, those factors to be effected to dominant the total time delays were increased were in the cases of the high arrival rates and the high ration of destination of the other outerring. The system were shown the time delays increased exponentially in spite of the priority service policy. In order to decreasing the number of outerrings and increasing the number of nodes in backbone relatively, so the systems could be decreased the total delay in the interconnected token ring system.

Mechanical Relay (McR) is a relaying architecture to enable data communications, where it can endure the transportation delay and intermittent disconnection. Every kind of vehicular infrastructures can be readily utilized for the mechanical relaying in the manner of moving natures, which brings the most significant consequences compared to conventional relaying schemes. In this paper, we analyze the ergodic network throughput of McR in wireless line networks (WLN) to compare the results between employing McRs and direct multi-hopping through the users without McRs. We demonstrate the McR scheme that are not only Ve-SISO but also Ve-SIMO/MISO. The numerical results of ergodic network throughputs contribute to the trade-off relation depending on the speed v of McRs, intensity factors ${\lambda}_u$ and ${\lambda}_r$, and the methods of how McRs are utilized.

This paper discusses a far-end crosstalk (FEXT) canceller for twisted-pair transmission. Many twisted-pair systems such as fiber-to-the-curb (FTTC), very high-speed digital subscriber line (VDSL), and high-speed LAN systems, use frequency-division duplexing (FDD) for duplex transmission. It is shown that the maximum reach of FDD twisted-pair system is limited by the performance of its upstream channel, which is located at higher frequencies than the downstream channel. In order to improve the performance of such FDD transceiver, FEXT cancellation is introduced for the channel at higher frequencies. A system arrangement and its blind start-up procedure are studied when the FEXT canceller and equalizer are jointly adapted to combat channel intersymbol interference (ISI), FEXT, and other additive noise. The initial convergence and the steady-state behavior of the proposed twisted-pair system without requiring transmission of an ideal training sequence are investigated. Measured characteristics as well as analytical model of the FEXT channel are used to estimate the time span needed for the FEXT canceller. It is also shown that the memory span for the FEXT canceller is almost independent of the channel, thus making our results useful for the twisted-pair system over all different channels.

Recently, the UWB (ultra wide-band) wireless communication technology, which provides high data transmission and is capable of linearly trading between throughput and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), has drawn much attention for short-range wireless networks. Fully exploiting its notable features and minimizing its interference to coexisting other systems require the knowledge of SNR's at receivers In this paper, we propose an algorithm for estimating the pulse energy to noise ratio Ep/No of UWB signal with utilization of outputs from a correlator at a receiver, and evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm through computer simulation. According to simulation results, the maximum standard deviation is about 1 13 dB with a block size of 500. Except for Ep/No=O and 2 dB cases with a block size of 500, no errors greater than 3 dB were observed in all the remaining experiments. Generally speaking, it improves as the true Ep/No, increases and as the block size increases A notable feature of the proposed algorithm is that it does not reduce the effective throughput because the estimation process does not require sending additional training signal of any specific format.

Recently, various transmission techniques for communication and broadcasting systems have been developed to meet the dramatically increasing requirement of consumers. Because UWB (Ultra-Wideband) is a wireless communication technique that supports high data rate with low power, it can satisfy the requirement and can be applied to various wireless communication services. The multi-band orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MB-OFDM) system, one of UWB system, is the wireless communication system that satisfies the transmission characteristic for UWB and so it can be used for various wireless communication services. In this paper, we propose a scheme that uses hierarchical modulation which is applied in digital video broadcasting system at the source and adaptive modulation based on the channel quality at the relays. The simulation results have shown that the proposed scheme has both the advantages of the increased throughput by 33% and similar BER performance to conventional scheme.

WBAN is short range wireless communication technology which is consists of several small devices close to, attached to or implanted into the human body. WBAN is classified into between medical and non-medical by applications based on technology and medical data with periodic characteristics is used the GTS method for transmitting data to guarantee the QoS. In this paper we proposed algorithm that resolve lack of GTSs while data transmit GTS method in superframe structure of WBAN. Coordinator dynamically allocates GTSs according to the data rate of devices and make devices share GTSs when lack of GTSs. We compared delay bounds, throughput for performance evaluation of the proposed algorithm. In other words, we proposed algorithm adaptive WFQ scheduling that GTS allocation support differential data rate in environments of WBAN. The experiment results show the throughput increased and the maximum delay decreased compared with Round Robin scheduling.
