In this letter, we propose a power control mechanism in order to improve secrecy rate defined as the difference between capacity of main link and wiretap link in a wireless multi-cell multiuser network. Through simulations, we verify that the proposed power control mechanism with threshold based user scheduling can significantly increase secrecy rate in a multi-cell environment.

In order to support reliable medium access control (MAC) layer multicast services in Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) networks, we here propose spreading codes (Cumulative ACK (CA) code and ARQ Feedback Request (AFR) code) based reliable multicast feedback scheme. The status indications based on the automatic repeat request (ARQ) mechanism are needed in some multicast services. In accordance with various wireless channel environments, we demonstrate the performance excellency of our proposed scheme with respect to required uplink resources compared with the original feedback scheme based on unicast ARQ feedback messages. In addition, we analyze packet error rate (PER) against the various wireless channel environments.

Mobile Multi-hop Relaying (MMR) system can provide increased system capacity of wireless access network by coverage extension and enhanced transmission rate within the Base Station (BS) coverage area. The previous researches for the MMR system with a non-transparent mode Relay Station (RS) do not consider channel selection procedure of Mobile Station (MS), co-channel interference and Multi-hop Relay Base Station (MR-BS) coverage and RS coverage ratio in MMR system. In this paper, we investigate the performance of MMR uplink system in multicell environments with various topologies. The performance is presented in terms of call blocking probability, channel utilization, outage probability and system throughput by varying offered load. It is found that, for certain system parameters, the MMR uplink system achieve the maximum system throughput when MR-BS coverage to RS coverage ratio is 7.

With 5G standards proceeding in earnest and increasing demand for services of indoor localization, research on indoor location recognition is being studied in various industrial fields, and research based on fingerprint recognition technology using Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is representative. In this paper, we propose an indoor positioning system based on fingerprinting technique that uses Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) architecture and Channel State Information (CSI). In order to improve the performance in indoor positioning, we combined existing fingerprinting method and K nearest neighbor (KNN) technology which is one of the machine running technique. The performance improvements of the proposed indoor positioning system was verified by comparative experiments with the existing localization technique in a indoor localizztion testbed.

2세대 이동통신의 본격적인 상용화 이후, 보다 향상된 무선 멀티미디어 서비스를 지원하기 위해 ITU는 IMT-2000이라고 불리는 복수의 국제 무선 규격을 2000년에 승인하였으며 이을 통칭하여 3G(Third Generation) 이동통신 시스템이라고 부르고 있다. 특히 여러 3G 기술 표준들 가운데 3GPP(Third Generation Partnership Project)와 3GPP2(Third Generation Partnership Project)라는 양대 국제 표준화 기구에서 완성된 UMTS와 cdma20()0 @ 시스템은 현재 일본, 유럽, 미국, 국내 등지에서 본격적인 상용 서비스를 시행 또는 준비 중에 있다. 초기 3G 표준의 제정 이후, 각 표준화 기구들은 상향과 하향 링크의 양방향 모두에서의 고속 패킷 데이터 전송, 무선 성능 향상, IP 네트워크를 위한 구조의 진화, 향상된 서비스 등을 목표로 하여 3G 무선 규격에 대한 성능 향상 및 진화를 위한 표준화 작업을 진행해 왔으며 또한 현재에도 진행 중에 있다. 최근에 이르러3GPP에서는 장기적 관점에서 향후 시스템의 진화 (Long-Term Evolution: LTE) 방향에 대한 논의가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 3GPP2 TSG-C에서도 진화 방향에 대한 논의가 구체화되기 시작하였다. 본 논문 에서는 3GPP/3GPP2 표준화 동향 및 각 표준화 단체의 최종 진화 시스템에 대한 다양한 방향성을 가늠해 본다.

A conventional max SNR scheme, which allocates uplink resources to the user with the highest gain of desired signal channel with a serving base station (BS), exhibits excellent performance in low interference environments. On the other hand, max SGIR scheme, which allocates resources by considering both the desired signal chanel gain and users' interference generating to neighboring BSs, outperforms the max SNR in high interference environments. The conventional two scheduling schemes exhibit optimal performance in different interference environments. Thus, we propose an adaptive scheduling scheme in order to overcome disadvantages of the conventional schemes. In the proposed scheme, a user is selected by max SNR and then the user's generating interference is compared with a pre-determined threshold value. If the generating interference is larger than a pre-determined threshold, then a user is re-selected by max SGIR policy. Monte-Carlo simulation results reveals that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional schemes in various interference environments.

The underlay protocol is a cognitive radio method in which secondary or cognitive users use the same frequency without affecting the quality of service (QoS) for the primary users. In addition, because of the broadcast characteristics of the wireless environment, some nodes, which are called eavesdropper nodes, want to illegally receive information that is intended for other communication links. Hence, Physical Layer Security is applied considering the achievable secrecy rate (ASR) to prevent this from happening. In this paper, a performance analysis of the amplify-and-forward scheme under an interference constraint and Physical Layer Security is investigated in the cooperative communication mode. In this model, the relays use an amplify-and- forward method to help transmit signals from a source to a destination. The best relay is chosen using an opportunistic relay selection method, which is based on the end-to-end ASR. The system performance is evaluated in terms of the outage probability of the ASR. The lower and upper bounds of this probability, based on the global statistical channel state information (CSI), are derived in closed form. Our simulation results show that the system performance improves when the distances from the relays to the eavesdropper are larger than the distances from the relays to the destination, and the cognitive network is far enough from the primary user.
