In this paper, we employ the single channel full duplex radio for wireless local area network (WLAN) systems, and design digital interference cancellers using adaptive signal processing. When the full duplex scheme is used for WLAN systems with multiple transmit and receive antennas, some interference is caused through the feedback of transmit signals from multiple antennas. To remove the feedback interference, we derive the least mean square (LMS), normalized LMS (NLMS), and recursive least squares (RLS) algorithms based on adaptive signal processing techniques. In addition, we analyze the theoretical convergence of the proposed LMS and RLS methods. The channel capacity of full duplex radios increases by two times than that of half duplex radios, when the packet error rate (PER) performances for the two systems are identical. Through numerical simulations in WLAN systems, it is shown that the full duplex method with the proposed interference cancellers has a similar PER performance with the conventional half duplex transmission scheme.

This paper addresses the fairness issue between uplink and downlink traffic in IEEE 802.11 WLANs. Some solutions in existing work try to solve this issue by giving smaller minimum contention window (CWmin) value to an AP compared to stations. In contrast to the existing solutions, a proposed algorithm in this paper aims at finding CWmin values that not only provides fairness between uplink and downlink traffic among stations but also achieves high throughput. For this, in the proposed algorithm, an AP checks the number of stations that have uplink and downlink traffic, respectively. Based on this information, the AP calculates optimal CWmin values and announces it to stations. Our simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms existing algorithms in terms of fairness and throughput.

In this paper, the wideband patch antenna is simulated and manufactured for the wireless LAN of 5GHz band that is defined in IEEE 802.11a. In the 802.11a, 200 channels of 675MHz are defined. Therefore, the bandwidth is needed more than 12.3%. For the wideband characteristics, low dielectric constant is realized with the multi-layer of 2 teflon substrates and the air dielectric layer and the feeding method of the coupled-line is used. Optimized wideband patch antenna is simulated with the return loss of 38.99dB at the center frequency of 5.43GHz and the bandwidth of 12.9%. The gain of manufactured patch antenna is 4.38, 4.52, and 5.12dBi at the channel number of 46, 56, and 153, respectively.

무선 랜을 사용하는 애드 혹 네트워크에서는 경쟁 기반의 전송을 하는 링크 계층의 동작으로 인해 기존의 TCP의 정책들이 불리하게 작용하는 점이 있다. 특히, 이러한 환경에서는 패킷 전송을 위한 채널 경쟁이 큰 요소로 작용하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 무선 랜을 사용하는 애드 혹 네트워크에서 TCP의 ACK 기법을 조절하여, 경쟁으로 인한 오버헤드를 줄임으로써. 전송 효율을 높일 수 있는 방식을 제시한다.

무선 네트워크 환경에서의 미디어 전송은 채널의 패이딩 현상 및 채널 잡음 등으로 인한 다량의 패킷손실과 전송지연의 변동으로 급격한 화질 열화를 발생시킨다. 이러한 채널 변동이 심한 무선 네트워크 환경에서 성공적으로 미디어를 전송하기 위해서 FEC (Forward Error Correction), ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest) 및 인터리빙을 사용하여 오류를 복구한다. 하지만 각각의 오류제어 모드는 채널 상황 및 오류 패턴에 따라 효율성이 다르기 때문에, 채널 상황에 적응적으로 변경할 수 있는 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 무선채널 변동을 송 수신측의 피드백 정보를 통해 측정하고 이에 따라 유동적으로 가장 적합한 오류제어 모드를 선택하여 패킷손실을 최소화하는 네트워크 적응형 전송오류제어 기법인 NASTE(Network-Adaptive Selective Transport Error control)를 제안한다. 제안된 기법의 성능을 검증하기 위해 IEEE 802.11g 무선랜 환경에서 NASTE 를 구현해서, MPEG-2 미디어 전송할 때 발생하는 패킷오류를 복구함으로써 전체적인 전송률 개선을 검증한다.

To cope with channel variation, wireless networks such as IEEE 802.11 WLAN provide multiple transmission rates by employing different channel modulation and coding schemes. However, the coexistence of different transmission rates degrades the total system performance of the network. In order to eliminate this performance abnormality and improve protocol capacity, we propose a new Packet transmission algorithm, the RAT(Rate-Adapted Transmission) scheme. The RAT scheme distributes the wireless channel fairly based on the channel occupancy time. Moreover, it efficiently transmits packets even in a single station using rate-based queue management. Therefore, the RAT scheme obtains not only the inter-rate contention gain among stations but also the intra-rate contention gain among connections in a single station.

In this paper, we have analyzed the effects of co-channel, adjacent-channel, and the human shield(Body Blockage) for wideband WLAN based on the IEEE802.11n 40MHz channel bandwidth required for high speed digital signage service. Simulation results show that wideband WLAN can be operated with 78 interferers over 63m distance in co- channel, 80 interferer over 61m distance in adjacent channel. By applying the mitigation method for reducing the interference, we have confirmed that protection distance is improved to 51m using beamforming, and 40m using cognitive radio in co-channel interference. Also body blockage interference is reduced using adaptive channel bandwidth, C/I ratio, beamforming, power control mitigation methodology.

In this paper, we propose a practical implementation of network-adaptive HD(high definition) MPEG-2 video streaming with a cross-layered channel monitoring(CLM) over the IEEE 802.11a WLAN(wireless local area network). For wireless channel monitoring, AP(access point) periodically measures the MAC(medium access control) layer transmission information and sends the monitoring information to a streaming server. This makes that the streaming server reacts more quickly as well as efficiently to the fluctuated wireless channel than that of the end-to-end monitoring(E2EM) scheme for the video adaptation. The streaming sewer dynamically performs the priority-based frame dropping to adjust the video sending rate according to the measured wireless channel condition. For this purpose, our streaming system nicely provides frame-based prioritized packetization by using a real-time stream parsing module. Various evaluation results over an IEEE 802.11a WLAM testbed are provided to verify the intended QoS adaptation capability The experimental results show that the proposed system can effectively mitigate the quality degradation of video streaming caused by the fluctuations of time-varying wireless channel condition.

A Wireless Access for Vehicular Environment (WAVE) system based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is made for vehicle to vehicle wireless communications. The physical layer standard of the WAVE system is very similar to that of the IEEE802.11a wireless local area network (WLAN). Therefore, the performance of the WAVE system is degraded by continual channel variation in the WAVE multipath fading channels after starting initial channel estimation. In this paper, we research the performance improvement of equalization in 64 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) transmission in WAVE environment. The proposed algorithms use the training sequence and the midamble sequence which is used for fast channel variation such as WAVE environments. Additionally, various interpolation methods are also used for the channel tracking.

In this paper, we study the coexistence of typical radio access technologies (WiMAX, CDMA, WLAN) in heterogeneous networks. Although the radio accesses employ different frequency band, they can interfere with each other due to out-of- band emission. We compute the minimum adjacent channel interference ratio (ACIR) to satisfy the allowable level of interference, and the resulting minimum frequency separation (guard band) between interfering and victim system. We observe that WiMAX-WLAN coexistence and WiMAX-CDMA coexistence are feasible with at least 20 MHz and 15 MHz guard bands, respectively.
