In this paper, a binary-coded physical-layer network coding (PNC) is considered when high-order modulation techniques are used at source nodes in wireless communication environments. In the conventional PNC schemes, tight power control and phase compensation are required at a relay node. However, they may not be feasible in practical wireless communication environments. Thus, we do not assume the pre-equalization in this paper, and we only utilize the channel state information at receiver (CSIR). We propose a signal detection method for the binary-coded PNC with high-order modulation, such as QPSK and 16QAM, at the source nodes, while the conventional scheme only consider the BPSK at source nodes. We also analyze the bit-error performance of the proposed technique in both uncoded and coded cases.

LDPCA 부호는 부호율-적응적인 특성과 함께 뛰어난 압축률을 가지고 있어 분산 소스 부호화 시스템에서 사용되는 오류정 정부호로서 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 소스와 보조정보 사이의 상관관계가 낮은 영역에서는 급격한 성능열화가 일어나게 된다. 본 논문에서는 기존 LDPCA 부호에 특정 압축률 이상의 단계에서 추가 누적 신드롬 대신 변수노드와 일대일로 연결되어 있는 차수-1 신드롬을 전송하는 방식을 적용하여 이 영역에서 급격하게 발생하는 성능열화를 줄였다. 또한 차수-1 신드롬과 연결할 변수노드 집합을 선택할 때 복호화기에서 사용하는 LDPCA 부호의 검사노드 차수 분포를 집중시키는 알고리즘을 제안하여 성능을 더욱 향상시켰다.

탄소나노튜브의 전자방출 특성을 활용하면 저전압으로 냉전자를 빠른 스위칭 속도로 전자를 용이하게 제어가 가능하다. 이로 인한 고성능 엑스선 소스를 이용하여 의료영상진단과 보안검색 분야에서 많이 사용될 것으로 예상이 된다. 본 연구에서는 고성능 탄소나노튜브 기반 엑스선의 미소초점 형성을 위한 전자 방출 시뮬레이션을 실시하였다. 3극관(애노드, 게이트, 캐소드)에서 2개의 포커싱 전극을 추가한 5극선관의 전자방출 궤적에 대한 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 3극관을 구성하여 애노드와 게이트에 일정 전압을 정해준 후, 2개의 포커싱 전극의 전압, 포커싱 전극간의 거리, 그리고 포커싱 전극의 내부직경을 조절함으로써 애노드 상에서의 전자의 초점이 작아지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 마이크로 포커스 엑스레이 소스는 의료영상진단에 있어서 고해상도 의료기기로의 응용이 가능하다.

This paper proposes a routing establishment method for improving path stability in mobile ad-hoc networks. In mobile ad-hoc networks, the network topology is highly dynamic due to the node mobility unlike wired networks. Since the existing methods are based on the shortest path algorithm with the minimum hop count regardless of the path stability, it could lead to packet loss and path disconnection in mobile ad-hoc networks. In particular, if control packets and critical data are transmitted on the unstable path, it causes serious problems. Therefore, this paper proposes one approach in order to minimize packet loss and path disconnection by considering the node mobility. After the destination node receives multiple RREQ messages, it selects the stable path through the proposed MinMax algorithm according to the node speed.

Data dissemination schemes for wireless sensor networks, where sinks and event targets might be mobile, has been one of the active research fields. For doing that, stationary nodes gathered data on behalf of mobile sinks and the relayed data in previous studies. their schemes, however, lead to frequent query flooding and report congestion problems over sink moving. We propose a data dissemination protocol to solve both the query flooding and the report congestion problem. Our scheme improves the two shortcomings through sink location management. Finally, we prove effectiveness of our protocol through computer simulations.

In the RTLS(Real Time Location Based System), in case of existing a number of moving target, extremely complecated data flow is can be occurred. In the network where single gateway exists, various data which was collected from sensor node is transmitted along the simple route as time goes by. In case of multi-gateway configuration, the collected data is transmitted through diverse routes rather than simple route. This kind of data causes jams on nodes and this brings down the performance of the network. Different from existing studies, in this thesis, MAC (Media Access Control) protocol which minimizes data collision between nodes and guarantees QoS(Quality of Service) is suggested, in order to communicate efficiently in multi-gateway underwater sensor network environment. In the suggested protocol, source node which wants to transmit data makes a channel reservation to a number of destination node using a RTS packet. Source node reserves a channel without collision, by scheduling CTS response time using expected delay information from neighbor nodes. Once the reservation is made, source node transmit data packet without collision. This protocol analyzes/estimates the performance compared to a method provided from existing studies via simulation. As a results of the analysis, it was comfirmed that the suggested method has better performance, such as efficiency and delay.

Algorithms for application-level multicast often use trees to deliver data from the source to the multiple receivers. With the tree structure, the throughput experienced by the descendant nodes will be determined by the performance of the slowest ancestor node. Furthermore, the failure of an ancestor node results in the suspension of the session of all the descendant nodes. This paper focuses on the transmission of data using multiple virtual forwarders, and suggests a scheme to overcome the drawbacks of the plain tree-based application layer multicast schemes. The proposed scheme elects multiple forwarders other than the parent node of the delivery tree. A receiver receives data from the multiple forwarders as well as the parent node and it can increase the amount of receiving data per time unit. The multiple forwarder helps a receiver to reduce the impact of the failure of an ancestor node. The proposed scheme suggests the forwarder selection algorithm to avoid the receipt of duplicate packets. We implemented the proposed scheme using MACEDON which provides a development environment for application layer multicast. We compared the proposed scheme with Bullet by applying the implementation in PlanetLab which is a global overlay network. The evaluation results show that the proposed scheme enhanced the throughput by 20 % and reduced the control overhead over 90 % compared with Bullet.

In this paper, we propose a Route Stability-based Direction Guided Routing protocol(RSDGR) in mobile ad-hoc wireless networks. The main features and contributions of the proposed routing protocol are as follows. First, it can calculate link stability between two nodes as well as route stability of multi hop quantitatively by using nodes' mobility. And this protocol can establish the most stable path between a source node and a destination node. Second, according to the route stability between a source node and a destination node, it can control and optimize the direction guided region dynamically for route setup. Third, we suggest theoretical model for quantitative calculation of link stability between two nodes and route stability of multi hop path. The performance evaluation of the proposed routing protocol is performed by simulation using OPNET(Optimized Network Engineering Tool) and theoretical analysis. The results of performance evaluation show that the patterns of PDR are similar in simulation and analysis according to route stability. The faster mobile nodes' velocity and the smaller source node's direct guided reigion, the lower route stability and PDR and the higher delay and control overhead related to this.

이동 애드 혹 망에서 안정된 멀티캐스트 데이터 전달 구조는 데이터 전송률을 높이고 제어 부하를 맞추는데 기여한다. 이동 애드 혹 망의 동적 위상 때문에 애드 혹 환경에서 안정된 멀티캐스트 데이터 전달구조를 구성하는 것은 어려운 문제이다. 이 논문에서 우리는 이동 애드 혹 망을 위한 안정된 응용 계층 멀티캐스트를 제안한다. 이 프로토콜에서는 각각의 멤버 노드가 잔여 에너지와 지역 이동성에 따라 자신의 안정성을 미리 계산한다. 소스가 데이터 패킷을 전송해야 할 때, 변형된 지연 전달 방안을 통해 소스기반 오버레이 멀티캐스트 트리를 만든다. 오버레이 구성은 각각의 멤버 노드의 안정성에 따른다. 상대적으로 높은 안정성을 가진 멤버 노드는 하위 트리들을 가질 확률을 높여준다. 제안한 설계는 불안정한 멤버 노드들을 멀티캐스트 트리의 가장자리로 밀어내어 멀티캐스트 라우팅 안정성을 개선한다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 우리의 설계가 패킷 전송률, 링크 단절에 의한 손실률, 제어 부하 면에서 ODOMP[1]에 비해 우수하다는 것을 보여준다.

This paper proposes a secure data forwarding scheme on source routing-based ad-hoc networks. The scheme uses two hash-key chains generated from a trusted third party to generate Message Authentication Codes for data integrity The selected MAC keys are delivered to the ad-hoc node using a pre-shared secret between the trusted third party and a node. The proposed scheme does not require the PKI, or the provisioning of the pre-shared secrets among the ad-hoc nodes.
