최근 무선 인터넷 기술의 발달과 보급으로 인해 실생활에서도 쉽게 무선 네트워크를 이용한 통신을 할 수 있게 되었다. 무선 네트워크를 이용한 통신을 위해선 통신 망을 유지해 주는 AP(Access Point)가 필수적이다. 이러한 AP를 활용한 AP의 신호 세기를 이용하는 실내 위치 측위 기술은 위치 기반 서비스의 발달과 함께 주목 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 실내 위치 측위에 많이 사용되는 삼각측량법을 개선하기 위해 다수의 무선 네트워크 인터페이스를 사용한다. 최근에는 하나의 디바이스에 여러 개의 무선 인터페이스가 장착되는 것이 보편화 되었는데 이러한 여러 개의 인터페이스를 활용하여 실내 위치 측위 값을 보정하였다. 실험 결과, 2개의 모듈을 사용할 때의 결과가 1개의 모듈을 사용했을 때 보다 평균 4.9% 좋은 성능을 보였다.

하드웨어 기술의 발전으로 서버 시스템의 연산능력은 발전을 거듭하고 있다. 또한 인터넷 사용의 광범위한 발전으로 인한 웹에 대한 폭발적인 사용 증가는 네트워크 서버의 연산 능력에 대한 요구와 더불어 향상된 네트워크 대역폭을 요구하게 되었다. 네트워크 장비의 발전도 진일보하고 있지만, 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 기가비트 이더넷등을 거치는 표준의 변화와 함께 기존의 장비에 대한 전면적인 교체 등으로 성능향상을 위해 많은 비용의 소요를 감수할 수밖에 없는 상황에 처해 있다. 클러스터의 한 예인 Beowulf 프로젝트와 같은 경우에, 기존의 네트워크 인터페이스를 병렬적으로 사용함으로써 큰비용 없이 더 큰 네트워크 대역폭을 얻기 위한 목적으로 이더채널(Channel-bonding)과 같은 기술이 개발되어 사용되기도 하였으나, 어디까지나 클러스터링을 위한 부수적인 기술로써 다소의 성능 향상에 만족하였고 심도있는 연구와 개발은 이루어지지 못하였다. 본 논문에서는 강력한 컴퓨팅 파워를 요구하는 특별한 서버 시스템이 아닌, 일반적으로 큰 네트워크 대역폭만을 요구하는 네트워크 서버에서 기존의 네트워크 인터페이스를 병렬적으로 이용하고, 채널-본딩에 비해 개선된 data distribution algorithm을 제안함으로써 성능의 향상을 꾀하고, 더불어 이러한 기술을 IEEE에서 제정중에 있는 802.3ad Link Aggregation 표준에 적용시키기 위한 기초를 마련하고자 한다.

These days, the network convergence for utilizing heterogeneous network on mobile device is being very actively studied. However, understanding characteristics of physical network interfaces and video encoder is needed for using the network convergence technologies efficiently. Thus, this paper proposes an optimized method for streaming video data through different network paths depending on data characteristics and channel condition. Accordingly, unlike the traditional methods, this study divides scalable coded videos by layer importance, the importance of stream information, and the importance in consideration of video decoder's robustness and selectively sends the data via multiple channels. And the experimental results show over 1dB increment in PSNR. The result of this study will provide an optimized video transmission technique in the next generation network convergence environment in which mobile devices have multiple network interfaces.

Spurred by the advent of ITS and WAVE (Wireless access in vehicular environments) as well as the wide-spread use of smart phones, WMN technology is considered to be a promising technology for extending the Internet access coverage supported by the IEEE802.11 based access points. In this paper, we propose a new MAC protocol which can efficiently utilize the multi-interface multi-channel communication capabilities supposedly equipped in most mesh routers, thereby increasing the network throughput considerably. We also verified its performance through computer simulations.

인터넷의 대중화로 고속 고용량의 멀티미디어 서비스가 가능해졌으며 이러한 서비스를 제공하기 위해 여러 형태의 스트리밍 시스템이 운영되고 있다. 하지만 이들은 단순히 멀티미디어 데이터의 전달에만 목적이 있어 네트워크 변화나 다양한 사용자 환경에 최적의 서비스를 제공하지 못한다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 다중 스트리밍 시스템은 단일 스트리밍 패킷이 아닌 여러 개의 다중 스트리밍 패킷을 동시에 생성하여 송신함으로써 네트워크 환경변화에 능동적으로 적응하고 사용자 환경에 최적으로 멀티미디어 데이터를 서비스 할 수 있도록 한다. 이를 통해 관리자는 네트워크와 사용자에게 적합한 대역폭 및 스트리밍 방법을 찾을 수 있고, 사용자는 보다 안정된 멀티미디어 서비스를 받을 수 있다.

To increase wireless capacity, the concurrent use of multiple wireless interfaces on different frequency bands, called aggregation, can be considered. In this paper, we focus on aggregation of multiple Wi-Fi interfaces with packet-level traffic spreading between the interfaces. Two aggregation schemes, link bonding and multipath TCP (MPTCP), are tested and compared in a dualband Wi-Fi radio system with their Linux implementation. Various test conditions such as traffic types, network delay, locations, interface failures and configuration parameters are considered. Experimental results show that aggregation increases throughput performance significantly over the use of a single interface. Link bonding achieves lower throughput than MPTCP due to duplicate TCP acknowledgements (ACKs) resulting from packet reordering and filtering such duplicate ACKs out is considered as a possible solution. However, link bonding is fast responsive to links' status changes such as a link failure. It is shown that different combinations of interface weights for packet spread in link bonding result in different throughput performance, envisioning a spatio-temporal adaptation of the weights. We also develop a mathematical model of power consumption and compare the power efficiency of the schemes applying different power consumption profiles.

HPC(High Performance Computing) is the computing system that connects a number of computing nodes with high performance interconnect network. In the HPC, interconnect network technology is one of the key player to make high performance systems, and mainly, Infiniband or Ethernet are used for interconnect network technology. Nowadays, PCIe interface is main interface within computer system in that host CPU connects high performance peripheral devices through PCIe bridge interface. For connecting between two computing nodes, PCIe Non-Transparent Bridge(NTB) standard can be used, however it basically connects only two hosts with its original standards. To give cost-effective interconnect network interface with PCIe technology, we develop a prototype of interconnect network system with PCIe NTB. In the prototyped system, computing nodes are connected to each other via PCIe NTB interface constructing switchless interconnect network such as ring network. Also, we have implemented prototyped data sharing mechanism on the prototyped interconnect network system. The designed PCIe NTB-based interconnect network system is cost-effective as well as it provides competitive data transferring bandwidth within the interconnect network.

This paper presents a fast IP mobility management scheme in vehicular networks where multiple wireless network interfaces are used to perform the fast handover without packet loss and handover latency. In order to do that, the IETF standard HMIPv6 has been extended, where multiple simultaneous tunnels between the HMIPv6 MAP and the mobile gateway are dynamically constructed. The architecture for supporting multiple tunnels has been designed and both mathematical analysis and simulation using NS-2 have been done for performance evaluation.

Various terminals equipped with multiple interfaces may receive services from wireless networks when they pass through the overlaid heterogeneous networks, and thus the vertical handovers across the wireless networks increases, which will become a big problem in the network resource management. This problem can be efficiently solved by common radio resource management (CRRM). In this paper, we propose two operation algorithms based on network selection jointly with vertical handover as the key CRRM strategies. When a new user tries to get services, the CRRM can choose the best target network according to the proposed Integrated Network Selection Algorithm. When the network cannot satisfy the request from the new users, the proposed Integrated Vertical Handover Algorithm moves existing users to neighborhood networks to accommodate new users. The performance of the proposed algorithms has been validated through extensive simulations.
