fireless LAN can offer high data rate communication between wireless terminals. In IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN, a basic service unit is called a Basic Service Set (BSS), which consists of one AP and more than one wireless terminals. Terminals far from the AP may not communicate with high data rate because signal strength is weakened as they move away from the AP. In this paper we propose a method to permit high speed data transmission by grouping terminals and by using part of wireless terminals as repeaters. We analyze the proposed and algorithm via simulations. Our proposed grouping mechanism is shown to be an effective way to increase the distance for high rate transmission.

This paper verifies the performance of the wireless-signal map-matching (WSMM) method that is recently proposed to mitigate the effects of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) error in positioning under wireless terrestrial network environments. The WSMM method is the new positioning technology that estimates and compensate the NLOS errors by processing the bulks of anonymous measurements at unknown locations that are collected randomly and automatically. The WSMM method would be advantageous for various configurations of future ubiquitous sensor networks since it is based on the existing network configuration for communication and it requires no additional hardware in base stations and mobile handsets. It is shown that the application of the WSMM concept to the real CDMA pilot strength measurment message (PSMM) actually mitigates the NLOS error effects and improves overall positioning accuracy.

The most popular communication protocol is those defined by the IEEE 802.11 WLAN to support broadband internet connection. The demand for real-time multimedia service is increasing through WLAN on the road. The Hand-off function of mobile terminal is essential to support mobility. But, the hand-off function of IEEE 802.11 WLANs has the latency up to 300ms, and recent research has focusing on channel scanning and reconnection to AP and certification process of AP. It is also the lack of consideration in related works that hand-off happens frequently when the mobile node is moving. This paper proposed the hand-off algorithm that guarantees high throughput and estimates the point which may occur hand-off using GPS information and RSSI. We implement the proposed hand-off function that achieves the best performance.

In this paper, we proposed a RSSI based cooperative localization algorithm considering wireless propagation characteristics in indoor environment for wireless sensor networks, which can estimate the BN position. The conventional RSSI based estimation scheme has low precision ranging according to time variable propagation characteristics. Hence, we implemented ray-launching simulator for analysis of propagation characteristics in $13.65m{\times}8.7m$, and performed proposed localization scheme with 4 RN and 1 to 5 BN. From the results, if we can consider channal characteristic in proposed ranging scheme, the cooperative localization algorithm with propagation characteristics provides higher localization accuracy than RSSI based conventional one.

In this paper, we proposed cooperative based localization algorithm for wireless sensor networks, which can estimate to unknown node position using received signal strength table set. The unknown nodes are monitor to RSS from neighbor nodes and exclude existence possibility area of sensor node in sensor field. Finally, we can calculate the centroid position for each unknown node with cooperative localization algorithm. Furthermore, these processes are applied iteratively about all nodes which is recorded to RSS table and can estimate for unknown nodes.

많은 측위 알고리즘이 참조노드가 정사각형의 모서리에 위치한다고 가정 하고 있지만, 실제로는 다각형이 되거나 매쉬형으로 배치될 수 있다. 신호세기를 달리함으로써 동심원을 구성하여 측위하는 WMRL(Weighted Multiple Rings Localization)도 기본적으로 참조노드의 배치가 정사각형으로 가정하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 참조노드는 임의로 배치되어 있는 경우에서의 측위로 확장한다. 즉, 측위하는 센서 노드가 수신 가능한 전파를 송신하는 모든 참조노드로부터 링 번호를 기반으로 자신의 위치를 추청한다. WMRL의 다중 신호 세기 링 방식을 채용, 각 링의 도달거리를 기반으로 센서노드가 자신과 참조노드 간의 거리를 유추하고, 최소자승법을 이용해 자신의 좌표를 계산하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 실험 결과 제안한 알고리즘은 에러가 없는 환경과 다수 참조노드 환경에서 WMRL 및 WCL(Weighted Centroid Localization)보다 2배 이상의 성능향상을 보였으며, 에러가 있는 전파환경에서는 DV-hop 보다 평균 6%, WCL 및 WMRL에는 평균 16% 정도의 성능 향상 결과를 보였다.

Among indoor positioning system techniques using wireless APs, fingerprint techniques collect Mac information and reception strength of APs before performing positioning, build a radio map, and compare it with AP information collected during positioning. However, the existing Radio Map construction method has a problem in that signal interference occurs due to collisions of numerous APs depending on the indoor environment, and the signal strength search result is not always constant. Therefore, this paper compares the existing fixed radio map construction method and the variable radio map construction technique that actively analyzes and constructs the measurement area itself according to signal strength.

Surveillance reconnaissance sensor network is used for surveillance in wartime and area of operation. In this paper, we propose a target localization method using the detection signal strength of seismic sensors. Relay equipment calculates the target location using coordinate information and detection signal strength of the seismic sensors. Target localization error deviation due to environmental factors was minimized by subtracting the dynamic offset when calculating the target location. Field test shows improvement of target localization through reduction of errors. The average error was decreased to 3.62m. Up to 62% improved result was obtained compared to weighted centroid localization method.

본 논문에서는 이기종 무선 망 환경에서 사용자가 특정 hot spot 지역을 출입 시 효율적인 이동성 지원을 위해 IEEE802.21(MIH) 기술과 RFID 시스템을 적용한 핸드오버 절차와 기법에 대해 제안한다. 기존의 방법들은 주로 수신된 신호 세기(Received Signal Strength Indication)을 측정하여 신호 감도에 따라 핸드오버할 시점을 결성한다. 하지만 이런 방법들은 갑작스런 신호세기 감소나 불안정한 신호 지역에서 현재 사용 중인 세션이 완전히 끊겨버릴 수 있는 문제점이 있다. 제안한 기법은 사용자가 핸드오버가 절대적으로 필요한 장소에서 출입 시 마다 자동적으로 핸드오버가 일어나게 하여 불필요한 전력 소모를 줄일 누도 있고, 응용의 세션이 갑작스럽게 끊어지는 현상을 방지할 수 있어서 보다 더 안정된 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 또한 접속 망 선택 시 사업자의 정책을 반영 한 망 기반의 핸드오버를 제공한다.

본 논문에서는 WiMAX 의 신호세기(CINR: Carrier to Interference + Noise Ratio)의 변화와 예측 방법에 대해 연구한다. WiMAX 와 같은 무선 네트워크에서는 신호세기가 불규칙하게 변화하기 때문에 비디오 스트리밍시 에러나 지연이 발생할 수 있다. CINR 은 클라이언트 측의 가용 대역폭을 결정하는 중요한 요소이다. 하지만 기존의 RTCP(Real-time Transport Control Protocol)를 이용한 비트율 제어는 RTT(Round Trip time), PLR(Packet Loss Rate) 등의 정보를 사용하기 때문에 부정확하거나 지연이 발생될 수 있다. 이를 보완하기 위한 CINR 을 직접 비트율 제어에 사용하는 방법에 대해 연구하기에 앞서, 본 논문에서는 CINR 을 분석하고 미래의 값을 예측하는 방법에 대해 연구한다. 본 논문의 분석을 통해 CINR 의 예측을 비교적 정확하게 수행할 수 있다면 앞으로의 가용 대역폭을 비교적 정확하게 예측할 수 있고 효율적인 비디오 스트리밍 시스템을 제안할 수 있다.
