With the original Transmission Control Protocol(TCP) design, which is particularly targeted at the wired networks, a packet loss is assumed to be caused by the network congestion. In the wireless environment where the chances to lose packets due to transmission bit errors are not negligible, though, this assumption may result in unnecessary TCP performance degradation. In this paper, we propose three schemes that improve the ability to conceal the packet losses in the wireless network while limiting the degree of violating TCP end-to-end semantics to a temporary incidents. If there happens a packet loss at the wireless link and there is a chance that the loss is noticed by the sending TCP, the proposed schemes send an indirect acknowledgement. Each of the proposed schemes uses different criteria to decide whether there is a chance that the packet loss occurred in the wireless part is noticed by the sender. In order to limit the buffer overhead in the base, the indirect acknowledgements are issued only when the length of buffer is less than a certain threshold. We use simulation to compare the overhead and the performance of the proposed schemes, and to show that the proposed schemes improve the TCP performance compared to Snoop with a limited amount of buffer at the base station.

In this paper, existing technology that uses broadcasting and multicasting IP addrsses at the wireless access network, based on Internet as a core network, is upgraded. By employing broadcasting service request by receivers, convergence of multicasting and broadcasting, and lower level filtering of broadcast data, the load and traffic of network, server, base station, and receiver is substantially reduced. The technology proposed in this paper could be useful for general broadcasting services, and especially optimum for LBS and Telematics services.

In this paper, we newly propose the optical CDMA routing scheme for the radio access network. At the radio base station (RBS), the received radio signals are multiplied by the PN codes and converted to the CDMA radio signals. In the next optical CDMAS are performed and multiplxed by using the PN codes which are the addresses of the routing mobile switching center (MSC). At the MSC, the CDMA radio signals are routined to another MSC by the CDM receiver at the routing node. In the case MSC is equal to the desired MSC, the radio signal is correlated by the two-layerd spectrum despreading at a time. Finally we theoretically analyze the signal-to-interference and noise power ratio of regenerated signal and the routing error probability and show the availability of proposed scheme.

We propose control mechanism of UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) group for making the communication network to the base station after the target is found. We assume UAVs can communicate to each other by wireless LAN without existing communication infrastructure. UAVs started to fly in linear formation, after finding target, UAVs move to the base station to send the information about the target. At least one UAV stays the position that the target is found. This paper explains the mechanism supporting reliable connectivity during UAV group's flying. We verify the proposed scheme and evaluate the performance through NS-2 simulation. The proposed scheme can be applied to the disaster area and war zone, which the existing communication infrastructure cannot be worked.

In this paper, we propose a high level design architecture of WCDMA(UMTS) base station modem and synchronization algorithms applied to the proposed architecture. Also analysis of each synchronization algorithm and performance evaluation of fixed point designed modem are shown. Since the target system is base station modem, each synchronization algorithm is designed for its stable operation. To minimize implementation complexity, optimum fixed point design for best operation of synchronization algorithms is performed. We performed symbol level link simulation with fixed point designed modem simulator for data rate of 12.2kbps, 64kbps, 144kbps, and 384kbps. We compared performance results to the minimum requirements specified in 3GPP TS 25.104(Release 5). Extensive computer simulation shows that the proposed modem architecture has stable operation and outperform the minimum requirement by 2 dB. The proposed modem architecture has been applied in the implementation of WCDMA reverse link receiver modem chip successfully.

3GPP(Third Generation Partnership Project) LTE system that is the next step forward in cellular 3G services address the issues related to power saving at LTE base station. This is because that most of the energy in a typical telecommunication network is consumed by the wireless network's base station site. Power saving at LTE base station fall in with low-carbon green technology. This thesis proposes a power saving MAC protocol for LTE base station which utilizes different graded DRX/DTX(Discontinuous. Reception/Transmission). Considering traffic type in UE, proposed MAC protocol controls adaptive DRX/DTX cycle. The proposed method is more improve power saving performance than another method which is unchanged DRX/DTX by conditions. In this thesis, I propose an power saving MAC protocol in an environment where LTE base station are communicated with UE and prove improvement in performance through simulations.

In WATM networks, in order to perform dynamic slot allocation required slots of mobile terminals are estimated based on DP (Dynamic Parameter) reflecting characteristics of traffic. In VBR (Variable Bit Rate) traffic, slot allocation is done at MT considering both time-dependent characteristics and QoS (Quality of Service) requirements. In this paper, DPs-buffer state information and buffer state change-are transmitted through in-band signaling. BS (Base Station) performs dynamic slot allocation considering traffic characteristics of each MT (Mobile Terminal), in other words, buffer state information informs the potentiality of 'buffer full state'to BS if MT buffer is over the specific threshold value and buffer state change notifies change in buffer state of incoming cells to MT. If buffer state information is equal to 'low (more than threshold)' and 'abrupt increase' it generates 'buffer full' state cell transmission delay or cell loss might occur. At this time BS should assign additional slots to MT, and then MT consumes cells in its buffer. In simulation, the proposed scheme shows better performance in cell delay and loss than EPSA (Estimation-Prorated Slot Assignment) in-band scheme.

본 논문은 광대역 무선통신환경에서 3GPP(3rd Generation Partnership Project)에 기반한 비동기 IMT-2000 시스템의 송수신 시스템을 구성하여 기지국의 수신성능을 분석하였다. 이동국과 기지국간의 Uplink 채널 환경을 고려하였으며, 기지국의 수신신호는 다중경로 페이딩(Multi-path Fading)과 다중접속간섭(Mult Access Interference : MAI)의 영향으로 성능일 열화된다. 이에 대한 대책으로 Array 안테나를 채용하였을 경우와 MRC-Diversity(Maximal Combining Diversity)를 채용하였을 경우의 수신성능을 동일한 환경에서 비교 분석하였으며, 각각의 시스템에 간섭제거기를 직렬로 비교분석하였다. 본 논문에서 적용한 Array 안테나는 수신 신호의 방향에 따라 적응적으로 추적하여 수신 SNR(Singnal-to-Noise power Ratio)을 최대로 형성하여 시스템의 성능을 개선하는 기법이며, 안테나의 방향성(Directivity :D=2.67)을 이용하는 3-element Array 안테나를 채용하였다. 최대비 합성 다이버시티 기법은 다이버시티 기법 중 수신효율이 가장 좋으며 가지수(L=2)를 함수를 사용하였다. 성능분석 결과 다중경로 페이딩과 다중접속간섭 환경에서 최대비 합성 다이버시티 기법이 Array 안테나보다 수신효율이 우수하였다.

센서 네트워크에서 에너지 소비는 전송거리와 보내고자 하는 데이터에 비례한다. LEACH-C와 같은 클러스터 기반 라우팅 기법들은 센서 노드들의 클러스터링을 통하여 데이터 전달 거리를 최소화시킴으로서 에너지의 효율성을 얻는다. 하지만 LEACH-C에서는 클러스터링을 구성할 때 클러스터 구성 노드들의 거리의 총합만을 고려한다. 본 논문에서는 에너지 사용에 큰 영향을 미치는 기지국과 클러스터 헤드간의 거리를 고려한 클러스터 헤드 선택 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 LEACH-C에 비해 기지국의 위치가 일정 거리 이상 떨어져 있을 경우 성능 향상 결과를 제공하였다. 이 결과는 클러스터 기반 라우팅 알고리즘에서 클러스터 헤드와 기지국간의 거리를 고려하는 것이 에너지 효율적인 측면에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 보여 주었다.
