In this paper, we propose a multiplay Thompson sampling algorithm in multipath communication system. Multipath communication system has advantages on communication capacity, robustness, survivability, and so on. It is important to select appropriate network path according to the status of individual path. However, it is hard to obtain the information of path quality simultaneously. To solve this issue, we propose Thompson sampling which is popular in machine learning area. We find some issues when the algorithm is applied directly in the proposal system and suggested some modifications. Through simulation, we verified the proposed algorithm can utilize the entire network paths. In summary, our proposed algorithm can be applied as a path allocation in multipath-based communications system.

다중 반송파 변조의 일종인 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 방식은 기존의 주파수 분할 다중화 기법에 각 부 채널들 사이의 직교성까지 보장함으로써 사용 주파수 효율을 극대화시킬 수 있는 방식이다. 그러나 주파수 비 선택적 다중경로 채널에서 높은 데이터 율을 갖는 OFDM 신호의 전송은 주파수 영역에서 인접 심벌간 간섭과 동일한 형태를 갖는 승산성 왜곡에 의해 영향을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 결정 궤환 시퀀스 등화기를 OFDM 시스템에 적용하여 신호를 등화하고, 등화를 통하여 주파수 영역에서의 인접 심벌간 간섭을 보상하는 방법을 제안한다. 결정 궤환 시퀀스 등화를 이용하여 최우 시퀀스 등화가 갖는 복잡도를 크게 줄이면서 주파수 오프셋이 추정될 수 있음을 설명하고 모의 실험을 통해 OFDM 시스템의 성능 개선을 보인다.

In this paper, we propose a method using cooperative spectrum sensing to avoid multipath and frequency selective fading. One of methods in conventional scheme was multi input multi output (MIMO) solution. However, in the wireless environment, mobile device hardly supports multi antenna because of limitation of hardware. Motivated from above problems, the proposed method provides the information of excellent channel to transmitter. As a result, quality of service (QoS) required by users can be satisfied. Finally, performance of the proposed protocol is analyzed in term of bit error rate (BER).

CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) is promising medium access control schemes for underwater acoustic sensor networks because of its robustness against frequency-selective fading and high frequency-reuse efficiency. In this paper, we design diversity schemes of underwater CDMA transceiver for the forward and reverse links. User data are multiplexed by Walsh code and a pseudo random noise code acquisition process is added for phase error correction before decoding the user data at the receiver. Then, the diversity reception using equal gain combining and maximal ratio combining is performed in order to minimize performance degradation caused by rich multipath fading of underwater acoustic channel. We evaluated the performance of diversity transceiver through lake experiment, which was performed at Lake Kyungcheon, Mungyeong city using two transmitters and two receivers placed 460 m apart at an average depth of 40 m. The lake experiment results show that user data are recovered with error-free in both of the forward and reverse links.

In this paper, we have considered the performance improvement of Multi-Carrier DS-CDMA system using hybrid SC/MRC-Lc/L diversity receiving technique over multipath fading environment and compared with that of a Wideband DS-CDMA system. In the result, the PBI has caused a performance deterioration over partial bandwidth in Multi-Carrier DS-CDMA system. Also, Multi-Carrier DS-CDMA system using Hybrid SC/MRC-Lc/L diversity received can determined the complexity and the performance vs the expenses for the system that select the number of input branches.

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) have gained a lot of attention recently. Based on the characteristic of WMNs as a highly connected wireless infrastructure, many efforts from research organizations are made in order to improve the performance of the flow throughput in WMNs. Therefore, it is very critical issue to establish efficient routing paths for multiple concurrent ongoing flows. In this paper, we propose a general modeling methodology to analyze the end-to-end throughput of multiple concurrent flows by analytical calculation taking into account the carrier sensing behaviors, interference and the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function mechanism. After the comparison of the average service time for each successful transmission at each node, we analyze the bottlenecks of flows, and hence obtain the maximum end-to-end throughput of them. By using our proposed model, it is possible to predicate the throughput of several candidate routing paths for multiple concurrent ongoing data flows, so we can select the most efficient route that can achieve the highest throughput. We carry out simulations with various traffic patterns of multiple flows in WMNs to validate our modeling and our efficient route selection mechanism.

Network Mobility Basic Support protocol reduces location-update signaling by making network movements transparent to the mobile nodes (MNs) behind the mobile router (MR), but causes some problems such as sub-optimal routing and multiple encapsulations. This paper proposes an Route Optimization Employing HMIP Extension for Mobile Networks (ROHMIP) scheme for nested nubile networks support which introduces HMIP concept with relation information between MNNs behind a MR and the MR in order to localize handoff, to optimize routing and especially reduce handoff signal overhead. With ROHMIP, a mobile network node (MNN) behind a MR performs route optimization with a correspondent node (CN) as the MR sends a binding update message (BU) to mobility anchor point (MAP) via root-MR on behalf of all active MNNs when the mobile network moves. This paper describes the new mechanisms and provides simulation results which indicate that our proposal reduces transmission delay, handoff latency and signaling overhead.

In this paper, we propose a joint bandwidth allocation and path selection scheme for IEEE 802.16j networks in uplink with cooperative relaying, and we evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme by using OPNET based simulation in hilly terrain with heavy tree density. The proposed scheme maximizes the system throughput in uplink with cooperative relaying in IEEE 802.16j networks. Then, we transform the proposed scheme into multi-dimensional multiple choice knapsack problem (MMKP) based scheme. We also propose uplink throughput maximization scheme and MMKP based scheme without cooperative relaying. We show that the system throughput of the proposed MMKP based scheme is higher than that of link quality based scheme, and cooperative relaying provides higher system throughput than the conventional case without cooperative relaying in uplink.

In this paper, we propose a wavelet-based detection method to identify efficiently the time-delay or multipath channel of ocean acoustic signals due to complex ocean medium and boundary layers. Our proposed method employs wavelet packet transform to analyze the received broadband acoustic signals and applies the matched filter to determine the time region of interest. Also, we present numerical testing that results on both the simulated and real data revealed the efficiency of this method in time-delay estimation and moreover its capability in estimating the time-delay of individual path in multipath channel, in which the arrival patterns are too close to be separated by the matched filter method.

This paper is about power line communication(PLC) over the low power voltage grid. The main advantage with power line communication is the use of an existing infrastructure. The PLC channel can be modeled as having multi-path propagation with frequency-selective fading, typical power lines exhibit signal attenuation increasing with length and frequency. OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is a modulation technique where multiple low data rate carriers are combined by a transmitter to form a composite high data rate transmission. The performance in consideration of the multi-path(echoes) powerline scheme is analyzed and verified by computer simulation.
