Wireless LAN is a rather mature communication technology that connects mobile terminals. A typical wireless LAN system is composed of one AP and more than one terminals, which is called a BSS. Terminals near to an AP can receive high rate data but terminals far from an AP may not receive data with guaranteed high speed rate because received signal strength is weakened. This paper proposes a method to allow high speed data transmission by grouping terminals and using part of wireless terminals as repeaters. We compare and analyze proposed grouping algorithms based on Depth First Search and Breadth First Search via simulations. A grouping algorithm based on Breadth First Search is shown to be more effective in term of efficiency and coverage.

There is a serious unfairness problem between upstream and downstream flows of AP in IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN. This problem is because Wireless LAN's DCF MAC protocol provides AP with equal channel access priority to mobile noded. Also, it makes this problem worse that the TCP's Data segment loss is more effective on throughput than the TCP's ACK segment. In this paper, we first make several simulations to analysis the unfairness in the various point of view and to find reasons of the unfairness. Also, this paper presents AP's scheduling scheme to alleviate the unfairness problem and evaluate the scheme through ns2 simulator.

In this paper, we investigate a charging mechanism for the system interworking between Wireless Local Area Networks(LANs) and Cellular Networks. Because the charging mechanisms of the two networks are different, a unified charging mechanism is required to correlate the charging informations of the two networks in the system interworking. Therefore, we propose a unified charging mechanism to collect charging information with a combined identifier. Also, we propose a decision method to control the interval of transferring accounting information according to the charging types of users (pre-paid, off-paid, and fixed-rate) and show that the proposed decision method improves the granularity and the communication efficiency of charging informations.

Recently the application area of wireless LAN has been increased, rapidly. The application area was limited in indoor, but as the data throughput and performance of wireless LAN becomes better the application is to extend to the Internet connection and wireless(Ubiqitous) bridge in outdoor. In this paper, In this paper, the data throughput of wireless LAN in mobile environment is measured, and the usability of wireless LAN for develop bridge health monitoring system is confirmed.

To increase the bit rate over than 1 Gb/s in LED visible light communications, we need to reduce the multipath effect of the light in indoor environment. In this paper, we propose a MAC protocol for LED visible light wireless LAN with beamforming technique. We assumed that spatial light modulator is used for beamforming function. We use polling method since detecting another uplink channel is difficult in visible light communication. We also estimated the performance of the proposed MAC protocol.

In this paepr, a multicode CDMA scheme with serial and parallel structure as the transmission scheme of wireless LAN which can transmit high speed data under an indoor channel environment is modeled and optimal values of several parameters needed for implementing wireless LAN modern system are derived through computer simulation. it is verified that given the transmission bandwidth and maximum data rate, the system performance is improved if increasing spreading gain anf the number of channels or decreasing the data rate of each channel. Especially the parallel structure makes not only the system performance much more improved but also the hardware implementation easier than serial structure under the same condition because the effective chip rate is decreased.

Wireless LAN was developed by alternative of LAN and because establishment was easy, have used into special field and special expenditure. Recently, Standard and a technology developed by leaps and bounds. Present is used into purpose of the Building to Building or wide connection etc. and relay of the high speed Internet and usage of picture communication that require multimedia band width. Specially, campus wireless LAM is thought that must secure radius $100\;\~\;200\;m$ dimension at the minimum 10Mbps speed as Internet transit trunk. But, there is difference as degressive here. In this paper, wireless LAN measured for effectiveness proof as Internet transit trunk in actuality utilization environment. Proved that should compose IEEE802.11b as AP more than minimum 3 when compose network to base as measuring result. Hereafter, there is the purpose that achieve performance evaluation of wireless UM in marine environment.

The previous works for WLAN system based on OFDM is mainly individual study for independent frequency offset or symbol synchronization. In this paper, the performance of IEEE 802.11a WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) system in the realistic indoor multipath channel models is analyzed with frequency offset compensation and channel estimation methods. For the performance analysis of the WLAN system indoor Rayleigh multipath channels are adopted, and the BER(Bit Error Rate) of WLAN system is calculated with y2 code-rate 16-QAM based on standard specification. From the simulation results, the difference of required Eb/No for BER of 10-3 is 1-2dB between the channel estimation and frequency offset compensation, and perfect channel estimation and no frequency offset.

최근 인터넷 틴 초고속 정보통신이 급속히 확산이 되면서 장소와 시간의 구애를 받지 않고, 인터넷에 접속할 수 있는 무선 LAN 사용이 점차 확대되었다. 무선 LAN을 이용한 무선 인터넷은 유선 인터넷에 비해 낮은 대역폭을 갖는다. 그리고 이동성과 휴대성을 고려한 배터리 기반의 동력을 사용함으로 에너지 효율적인 접근 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 TCP-Westwood를 수정하며 전송률 및 에너지 효율을 향상 시키기 위해 세그먼트 크기 조절 방법을 제안하였으며, 이를 NS-2 시뮬레이터를 이용한 실험을 통해 전송률 향상 및 에너지 효율이 개선됨을 확인하였다.
