유비쿼터스 센서 네트워크의 성능을 판단하는 중요한 지표로 감지된 정보를 실시간으로 전송하는 능력과 네트워크의 최대 생존시간을 들 수 있다. 하지만 대부분의 무선센서 에너지원은 배터리로 구성되어 있음으로 인해 실시간 정보전송을 위해 통신모듈의 전원을 자주 사용하게 되면 조기에 네트워크의 생존력을 잃게 되는 문제가 발생할 수 있으며 그와 반대로 에너지소모를 낮추기 위해 전송 주기를 길게 하면 전송지연이 발생되어 위급한 상황에서 시스템이 즉시 대응하지 못하는 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 통신모듈을 DUAL BAND로 이중화하고 송수신모드를 세분화하여 각 모듈에 공급되는 에너지를 상황에 맞게 제어하는 방법을 제안하며 제안한 방법을 적용하여 에너지 소모량과 전송지연시간을 계산한 결과, 중요한 군사적 목적이나 위험방지를 위한 실시간 감시 목적으로 사용할 경우 실시간전송과 효율적 에너지사용을 동시에 만족시킴을 확인할 수 있었다.

최근 무선 센서 네트워크 환경에서 대용량 멀티미디어 데이터에 대한 요구가 증가하면서 통신 대역폭 및 한정적인 에너지의 한계를 극복하기 위한 대안으로 데이터 분할 및 다중 경로 기법들이 제안되었다. 기존 기법들은 데이터 전송 시에 발생하는 부하의 분산을 통해 네트워크의 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다는 것을 증명하였지만, 데이터의 효율적인 분할과 악의적인 공격에 의한 보안성 문제에 대해서 고려하지 않았다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 비트평면 분할 기반의 보안성 있는 비-중첩 다중경로 라우팅 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 멀티미디어 데이터를 비트평면 단위로 분할하여 다중 경로로 전송함으로써 기존의 키 기반의 암호화 기법을 사용하지 않고도 전체 네트워크에 대한 보안성을 향상 시켰다. 또한 경로 상 노드들의 잔여 에너지를 고려하여 데이터 전송을 수행함으로써 전체 네트워크의 에너지 효율성을 향상시켰다. 성능평가 결과, 제안하는 기법은 기존 기법에 비해 노드의 생존율이 평균 50% 이상 향상되었고, 데이터가 노출되더라도 해당 패킷을 가지고 본래 이미지를 복구하는 것이 불가능하기 때문에 높은 보안성을 제공한다.

In this paper, the effective transmission method is proposed to save the energy and to increase the throughput of the communication system using adaptive modulation. Traditionally, adaptive modulation has been used to improve the throughput using the power margin of the system design. Considering the instantaneous energy during the modulation method changing duration, the effective transmission method is proposed. By the simulation, the performance and effectiveness is validated.

For energy-efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), when a sensor node detects events, the sensing period for collecting the detailed information is likely to be short. The lifetime of WSNs decreases because communication modules are used excessively on a specific sensor node. To solve this problem, the TARP decentralized network packets to neighbor nodes. It considered the average data transmission rate as well as the data distribution. However, since the existing scheme did not consider the energy consumption of a node in WSNs, its network lifetime is reduced. The proposed scheme considers the remaining amount of energy and the transmission rate on a single node in fitness evaluation. Since the proposed scheme performs an efficient congestion control it extends the network lifetime. The simulation result shows that our scheme enhances the data fairness and improves the network lifetime by about 27% on average over the existing scheme.

As many researchers have been interested in Green IT, Energy Efficient Ethernet(EEE) with rate adaptation has recently begun to receive many attention. However, the rate adaptation scheme can have different energy efficiency and delay according to the characteristics of various traffic patterns. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze the impact of different traffic patterns on the energy efficiency and delay in Ethernet with rate adaptation. To do this, firstly we design a rate adaptation simulator which consists of Poisson based traffic generator, Pareto distribution based ON-OFF generator and Ethernet node with rate adaptation by using OPNET Modeler. Using this simulator, we perform the simulation in view of the total number of switching, transmission rate reduction, energy saving ratio and average queueing delay. Simulation results show that IP traffic patterns with high self-similarity affect the number of switching, rate reduction and energy saving ratio. Additionally, the transition overhead is caused due to the high self-similar traffic.

In this paper, we propose a system model which effectively transmits the data and conducts RF energy harvesting in a wireless communication network of LTE and 5G. Through time switching and power splitting schemes, we find a time & power ratio to show the good performance according to the standard that we set up for transmitting a signal and conducting RF energy harvesting. So selecting optimal time & power ratio, we can efficiently transfer data to other drones and harvest the amount of harvested power simultaneously we desire. Also, according to conducting the performance analysis, we can compare an ideal receiver with the proposed system model. And, we suggest a future direction of research.

Snoop protocol is one of the efficient schemes to compensate TCP packet loss and enhance TCP throughput in wired-cum-wireless networks. However, Snoop protocol has a problem: it cannot perform local retransmission efficiently under the bursty-error prone wireless link. To solve this problem, SACK-Aware-Snoop and SNACK mechanism have been proposed. These approaches improve the performance by using SACK option field between base station and mobile host. However in the wireless channel with high packet loss rate, SACK-Aware-Snoop and SNACK mechanism do not work well because of two reason: (a) end-to-end performance is degraded because duplicate ACKs themself can be lost in the presence of bursty error, (b) energy of mobile device and bandwidth utilization in the wireless link are wasted unnecessarily because of SACK option field in the wireless link. In this paper, we propose a new local retransmission scheme based on Cross-layer approach, called Cross-layer Snoop(C-Snoop) protocol, to solve the limitation of previous localized link layer schemes. C-Snoop protocol includes caching lost TCP data and performing local retransmission based on a few policies dealing with MAC-layer's timeout and local retransmission timeout. From the simulation result, we could see more improved TCP throughput and energy efficiency than previous mechanisms.

Snoop 프로토콜은 무선 랜 환경에서 발생하는 TCP 패킷 손실을 효과적으로 보상하여 TCP 전송률을 향상시킬 수 있는 효율적인 프로토콜이다. 하지만, 무선 링크에서 Burst loss가 발생하는 경우에는 지역 재전송을 효과적으로 수행하지 못하여 전송 효율이 떨어진다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Snoop 프로토콜의 이러한 문제점을 개선하기위해 cross layer 기법을 적용한 지역 재전송 기법인 $A^2Snoop$ (ARQ Assistance Snoop) 프로토콜을 제안한다. $A^2Snoop$ 프로토콜은 현재 무선 랜 환경에서 가장 널리 사용되는 IEEE 802.11 MAC 프로토콜 기반의 지역 재전송 메커니즘으로서, MAC 계층의 ARQ 기법의 메시지와 새로이 제안된 지역 재전송 타이머에 의해 효율적인 재전송을 수행한다. ns-2 시뮬레이터를 이용한 실험을 통해 $A^2Snoop$의 지역 재전송 기법은 무선 구간의 Burst loss에 대해 효율적인 보상을 수행하며, 이동 단말의 에너지 효율성을 향상시키는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

In sensor network, cluster based routing protocol about efficient energy usage method has researched variously. But existing cluster based routing protocol have problems. one of the problem is sensor nodes's imbalance energy consumption problem at cluster reconstruction. anther is non- connection problem between header node and spc node when they are far from each other, not properly connected. We propose cluster re-division and header node of multihop transmission method in this paper. The cluster re-division method is the method that re-divides existing routing protocol with the small-scale cluster and multihop transmission method is the method regarding the relay transmission between the header nodes. Through the simulation, the proposed routing mechanism shows more excellent than exiting routing protocol in balance energy consumption and energy efficiency.

This paper proposes an energy-efficient mode selection and power allocation scheme in device-to-device (D2D) communication system as an underlay coexistence with cellular networks. We analyze the energy efficiency which is defined as the summation of the energy efficiencies for all devices. The proposed scheme consists of two steps. First, we calculate the transmission power maximizing the energy efficiency for all possible modes of each device. Although the proposed power cannot maximize the system capacity, we prove that the proposed transmission power is the optimal power which maximizes the energy efficiency. In the second step, we select a mode which has the maximal energy efficiency among all possible mode combinations of the devices. Then we can jointly obtain the transmission power and the mode which can maximize the energy efficiency. The proposed scheme has the optimal performance with respect to the energy efficiency and outperforms the conventional schemes.
