As the IT industry develops, the smart-phone technology and functions which are actively being studied at the moment greatly influence the entire living environment. With the smart-phone technology and functions, people's interest for the wireless LAN which can be used to get access to the Internet anytime anywhere is gradually increasing. However, since the malicious attacker can easily carry out hacking or approach the contents due to the characteristics of the wireless radio wave, the personal information with a high level of importance for data security is easily exposed due to Spoofing, Denial of Service attack and Man in the Middle attack. Therefore, the demand for security is gradually increasing. In this paper, the safe wireless network service environment is provided by supplementing the vulnerability in regard to Spoofing, Session Hijacking and Man in the Middle attack after executing the client's authentication process, the AP authentication process and the Mobile Agency authentication process with the client's information in the USIM, the AP information and the Mobile Agency information when the client uses the wireless Internet through the Mobile Agency AP access in the smart phone environment.

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.

TDMA/TDD을 기반으로 동작하는 HiperLAN/2의 MAC 프로토콜에서 무선채널은 중앙제어방식으로 운영되는 AP(Access Point)에 의해서 할당된다. 상향링크로 데이터 전송이 필요한 이동단말은 RCH 채널을 통하여 AP에게 무선자원을 요청한다. 각 MAC 프레임마다 RCH 수를 동적으로 변경하는 것이 중요한데, RCH 수가 많이 할당되면 무선자원의 낭비를 초래하며, RCH 수가 적게 할당되면 이동단말간의 충돌이 증가하고 AP에 접속하는 시간도 길어진다. 따라서 무선자원을 효율적으로 사용하기 위해 RCH 수는 트래픽에 따라 적절하게 할당되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 HiperLAN/2에서의 성능향상을 위해 패킷의 충돌수와 성공수를 고려하여 RCH 수를 동적으로 변화시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법의 효율성을 입증하기 위해 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 처리율과 접속지연 관점에서 분석하였다.

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.

On Handoff, existing AP search has chosen one of various APs according to signal strength. However IEEE 802.11 uses Medium Access method with CSMA/CA(Carrier Sensing Multiple Access /Collision Avoidance) that competes to obtain a channel by sharing common medium. For that reason, network performance is heavily affected by the number of nodes and network congestion aside from signal strength. Consequently, in this paper we propose the method that choose one AP which ensures more improved network performance and set up a link, reflecting AP network information in Handoff area, on Handoff in the process of AP selection. We also demonstrate through simulation that it gets maximum performance even in the wireless network which many users concurrently access to, and it has considerable effects on aspects of resources and network management by distribution of users.

In this paper, we try to solve the frequency shortage due to the increase of LTE terminals and the traffic jam caused by the inefficient WiFi connection method. The proposed LTE-WIFI Vertical Handover method uses a pre-authentication method of the AP through LTE and a method of controlling the access AP of the terminal using the RADIUS server. Through the simulation, the proposed method shows that the access speed of the AP is improved by about 95% compared to the conventional connection method, and the connection speed is improved by about 18% compared to the conventional method. Providing seamless AP through pre-authentication system and improving wireless network speed through AP access distribution can solve LTE frequency shortage problem and improve wireless network usage satisfaction.

When Handoff occurs at wireless network, existing AP search chooses one of various APs according to signal strength information. However, IEEE 802.11 uses Medium Access method with CSMA/CA that competes to obtain a channel by sharing medium. Therefore, network performance is heavily affected by the number of nodes and network congestion aside from signal strength. This scheme presented an additional AP selection indicator and a new handoff algorithm to realize handoff guaranteeing the network performance of mobile node in a process selecting new AP. This indicator is includes a handoff cost function reflecting the network information of mobile node, and the mobile node made handoff guaranteeing the network performance using network information possible by using this. also we classified the nodes into high-speed node and low-speed node. Then, when Handoff occurs, high-speed node was made itself choose AP by signal strength information. We also made the low-speed node choose its AP by using AP network information which is applied area. Hence, we demonstrate through simulation that gets an improvement in performance, even in the wireless network which many users concurrently access to, and it has considerable effects on aspects of resources and network management by distribution of users.

In IEEE 802.11b wireless network, stations synchronize themselves to the beacons periodically sent by the access point (AP) when they are running in low power mode. Stations stay awake for enough time to receive beacon because it is delayed in AP if the wireless channel has been being used by other traffic at each scheduled instant. In this paper, we propose a method that measures the delay of received beacons and calculates wake-up interval of station to receive the next one. Beacon transmission delay at the AP is analyzed. The proposed method is simulated and its characteristics are described in the analysis. The result measured in terms of station's wake-up interval shows some enhancement in energy consumption.

In this paper, we proposed a semi-soft handoff mechanism to provide link mobility in IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN environment. Buffers and routing tables in APs and portals are provided in order to reroute frames, which have not been received during handoff time and have been buffered in an old AP, to a new AP after handoff is performed. For the re -routing operation, the MAC routing table should be updated by exchanging information of a mobile terminal between neighbor APs. With our proposed scheme. a wireless LAN node can perform semi soft handoff while changing its attached AP and provide mobile IP and/or real time service like voice over IP. Also, we have done simulation for evaluation of the performance of the proposed scheme. We show that our semi soft handoff mechanism can be applied for real-time service with no frame loss in mobile environment.

Communication systems beyond 3G should provide more than 100 Mbps for wireless access. In addition to smart antennas, wireless multi-hop networks are proposed to increase the cell size and throughput. For example, Zigbee technology is expected to provide low cost and low power connectivity and can be implemented in wireless mesh networks larger than is possible with Bluetooth. Also, home embedded system using wireless mesh network is one of the key market areas for Zigbee applications. If the line-of-sight path is shadowed by home obstacles, a direct connection between the access point (AP) and the node is not possible at high frequencies. Therefore, by using multi-hop relay scheme the end node can be reached to AP. In this paper, the relaying of data between the AP and the end node is investigated and the throughput and PER(Packet Error Rate) are evaluated in multi-hop wireless mesh networks by using DSSS/BPSK system.
