We present the concept of applying Wireless Mesh Networking (WMN) technology into Smart Grid, which is recently rising as a potential technology in various areas thanks to its advantages such as low installation costs, high scalability, and high flexibility. Smart Grid is an intelligent, next-generation electrical power network that can maximize energy efficiency by monitoring utility information in real-time and controlling the flow of electricity with IT communications technology converged to the existing power grid. WMNs must be designed for Smart Grid communication systems considering not only the high level of reliability, QoS support and mass-data treatment but also the properties of the traditional power grid. In addition, it is essential to design techniques based on international standards to support interoperability and scalability. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of IEEE 802.11s based Smart Grid Mesh Networks by conducting preliminary simulation studies with the ns-3 simulator. We also outline some challenging issues that should be reviewed when considering WMNs as the candidate for Smart Grid communication infrastructure.

Wireless mesh network is not only WLAN technology but it says core technology for implementation of ubiquitous network and we have to application on a various field through connection with the sensor network. However, there are limited to 100mW in the maximum power because WLAN is used into transmission frequency band to ISM band. The mesh network based on WLAN is essential study for a long distance transmission in the limited maximum power that it is doing to cost-efficient network of backbone. Therefore, in this paper, we have presented an conquerable method to limitation of reaching distance of wireless mesh network and made several experiments to presentation the proposed method. The results show that it is possible to rise a long distance transmission and power efficiency into application of various antenna and function definition and implementation of device driver.

Wireless mesh networks can be deployed for various networks from home networking to last-mile broadband Internet access. Wireless mesh networks are composed of mesh routers and mesh clients. In these networks, static nodes form a multi-hop backbone of a large wireless access network that provides connectivity to end-users' mobile terminals. The network nodes cooperate with each other to relay data traffic to its destinations. In order to increase connectivity and better performance, researchers are getting interested in multi-channel and multi-interface wireless mesh networks. In these networks, non-overlapping multiple frequency channels are used simultaneously to increase the aggregate bandwidth available to end-users. Recently, researches have focused on finding suitable channel assignments for wireless network interfaces, equiped in a mesh node, together with efficient routing to improve overall system throughput in wireless mesh networks. This goal can be achieved by minimize channel interference. Less interference among using channels in a network guarantees more aggregated channel capacity and better connectivity of the networks. In this thesis, we propose interference aware channel assignment and routing algorithms for multi-channel multi-hop wireless mesh networks. We propose Channel Assignment and Routing algorithms using Traffic Profiles(CARTP) and Routing algorithms allowing detour routing(CARTP+2). Finally, we evaluate the performance of proposed algorithms in comparison to results from previous methods using ns-2 simulations. The simulation results show that our proposed algorithms can enhance the overall network performance in wireless mesh networks.

The Wireless Mesh Network uses a wireless communication technology with transmission rates similar to that of a cable, which is used as a backbone network. The topology structure is in a Mesh form which resembles an Ad-hoc network, however a metric is needed in order to set the channel and channel methods since the operation intentions and interior motions are different. This thesis proposes a metric(ETR : Expected Transmission Rate) that sets the channel with physical link performance and multi hop transmission capabilities. This metric will also be based on multi channel creation methods and Hop-by-hop routing techniques for an effective multi hop transmission with no loops.

기존의 무선 네트워크에 비해 빠르고 저렴하며 설치가 편리한 무선 메쉬 네트워크를 인터넷망 구성에 도입하려고 하는 것이 최근의 경향이다. 무선 메쉬 네트워크는 이종망간의 네트워크를 통합함으로 수많은 클라이언트들을 통제해야하며 기존의 IPv4 주소는 10년 내에 고갈이 됨으로, IPv6 주소 환경에 적합하게 연구 개발하여야 한다. 그러나 아직 무선 메쉬 네트워크는 개발 중인 기술로써 보완해야할 보안상의 문제점들이 발견되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 무선 메쉬 네트워크에 MIPv6를 어떻게 도입할지를 언급하고 MIPv6 도입 시에 발생하게 되는 보안상의 문제점을 SEND(SEcure Neighbor Discovery)와 MCGAs를 이용하여 해결하는 방법을 소개한다.

Consider a typical wireless sensor network in which stem nodes form the backbone network of mesh topology while each stem node together with leaf nodes in its vicinity forms a subnetwork of star topology. In such a wireless sensor network, we must heed the following when we design a MAC scheme supporting the packet delivery from a leaf node to a stem node. First, leaf nodes are usually battery-powered and it is difficult to change or recharge their batteries. Secondly, a wireless sensor network is often deployed to collect and update data periodically. Late delivery of a data segment by a sensor node causes the sink node to defer data processing and the data segment itself to be obsolete. Thirdly, extensive signaling is extremely limited and complex computation is hardly supported. Taking account of these facts, a MAC scheme must be able to save energy and support timeliness in packet delivery while being simple and robust as well. In this paper, we propose a version of ALOHA as a MAC scheme for a wireless sensor network. While conserving the simplicity and robustness of the original version of ALOHA, the proposed version of ALOHA possesses a distinctive feature that a sensor node decides between stop and continuation prior to each delivery attempt for a packet. Such a decision needs a stopping rule and we suggest a Bayes stopping rule. Note that a Bayes stopping rule minimizes the Bayes risk which reflects the energy, timeliness and throughput losses. Also, a Bayes stopping rule is practical since a sensor node makes a decision only using its own history of delivery attempt results and the prior information about the failure in delivery attempt. Numerical examples confirm that the proposed version of ALOHA employing a Bayes stopping rule is a useful MAC scheme in the severe environment of wireless sensor network.

Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) are popular due to their low cost and rapid deployment. Currently, many WMN researchers often considers the use of ad-hoc routing protocols because WMNs are similar to the ad-hoc networks. Some of currently deployed WMNs consider to use on-demand routing protocols such as Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR). But, AODV are not appropriate for Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), because flooding-based route discovery is both redundant and expensive in terms of control message overhead. In this paper, we propose a directional AODV (D-AODV) routing protocol based on hop count to a gateway. We implement the D-AODV routing protocol and evaluate the performance of the D-AODV on the testbed. The measurement results show that the D-AODV can enhance the network throughput by reducing the routing overhead.

본 논문에서는 차세대 전술이동통신체계에서의 무선 MSAP Mesh망에서 효율적으로 인증 키를 관리하고 전술이동통신체계의 부하를 줄이는 새로운 혼합형 인증기법을 제안한다. 기존 방식에서 각 MSAP이 체계 접속을 위해서는 중앙집중형 인증기법과 분산형 인증기법을 활용할 수 있는데 각각의 문제점을 안고 있다. 즉, 중앙집중형 인증기법은 MSAP 노드의 빈번한 가입 및 탈퇴로 인한 과다한 지연 문제가 있고 분산형 인증기법은 인증에 필요한 정보를 사전에 공유해야 하는 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 보완하는 동시에 전술적인 환경에서 악의적인 MSAP 접속 거부와 네트워크 보안성을 극대화하기 위해서는 보다 효과적인 인증기법이 요구된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 미 인증된 MSAP이 EAP-TLS 기법을 기반으로 전술이동통신 네트워크 진입시 초기인증과 이웃 MSAP간의 상호인증 등 다양한 시나리오를 군의 특수한 환경에 맞추어 구체적으로 제시하고 각 인증 기법의 장 단점을 분석하여 혼합형 인증기법 적용에 타당성을 강조하였다.
