Clock or time synchronization protocol is one of the crucial factors that could determine the quality of the communication. With the rapid development of the network technology, more robust clock synchronization algorithm is required. IEEE 1588 is one of the possible solutions for a robust clock synchronization algorithm; however, there are still some challenges that need to be concerned in IEEE 1588 in term of reducing and stabilizing the PDV value. This survey paper shows several solutions that could improve the performance of IEEE 1588, including modifying the PTP message transmission, optimizing PTP method, filtering techniques, and using the hardware timestamp instead of application layer timestamp, and so on. Despite the improvement that is created with these techniques, the clock synchronization algorithm is still an open issue in the network communication.

As an OLT in the central office controls up to 64 ONUs in the subscriber area via a passive optical splitter, the hU PON system can accomodate PTTx in a single platform with low cost. To operate the system, it is important to implement an efficient MAC protocol, however, the protocol is currently the further study area in the ITU-T 0.983.1. In this paper, we suggest the MAC protocol which is needed to send cells of ONU to upstream, and based on the ITU-T G.983.1. We survey conventional MAC protocols which are not based on G.983.1, and then formulate the minislot period and length for the grant request and determine the optimal value of each parameter. Also, we suggest a coding scheme for the grant field of the PLOAM cell and the procedure allocating optimal parameters to the ONU.

HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is a transfer protocol used by the World Wide Web distributed hypermedia system to retrieve the objects. Because HTTP is a connection oriented protocol, it uses TCP (Transmission control Protocol) as a transport layer. But it is known that HTTP interacts with TCP badly. it is discussed about factors affecting the performance or HTTP over TCP, the transaction time obtained by the per-transaction TCP connections for HTTP access and the TCP slow-start overheads, and the transaction time for T-TCP (Transaction TCP) which is one or methods improving the performance or HTTP over TCP. Average waiting time and average turnaround time are important parameters to satisfy QoS (Quality of Service) of end users. Formulas for calculating two parameters are derived. Such formulas can be used for the environment in which each TCP or T-TCP transaction time is same or different. Some experiments and computational experiences indicate that the proposed formulas are well acted, can be applied to the environment which the extension of bandwidth is necessary, and time characteristics of T-TCP are superior to that of TCP. Also, the load distribution method of web server based on the combination of bandwidths is discussed to reduce average waiting time and average turnaround time.

Multimedia service whose use is rapidly increasing supports effective services to convert and transmit multimedia data based on network speed, noise circumstance, terminal computation, and type of contents for satisfying QoS. For supporting information protection of multimedia service, it offers middle level of singular security service or security mechanism which is based on policy of service provider, depending on present terminal computation and type of contents. It can support security mechanism for more effective multimedia service, if we study security of application layer and network layer for supporting multimedia service. In this paper, we propose Multimedia security framework reflected on quantitative analysis of the WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) mesh network security using the utility function in the level of the sorority, violation and addictive compensation model.

CCSDS Standard is widely used in international space telecommunication area. In this standard, Encryption is realized using a unique hierarchical encryption protocol and satisfied security requirements of communication channels. For synchronization, encryption sync is attached in the beginning of encrypted data. But exceptional case(timing jittering, abnormal system shutdown, etc.) is occurred, receiving equipment cannot decrypt received data. In this paper, we propose a SES Alarmed link encryption synchronization method for sending warning signal to the transmitter when some problems have been occurred during the transmission and we also suggest optimum conditions for SES Alarm signal through performance analysis.

In this paper, we propose a congestion control scheme to control the congestion due to the mobility of ubiquitous devices on ubiquitous computing environment. Especially, this congestion control scheme provides a reverse congestion avoidance state which can classify between packet error by features of wireless network and packet dropping by congestion. Also, it provides a slow stop state which can minimize bandwidth waste due to congestion control. The proposed congestion control scheme controls more adaptive than existing congestion control schemes. The proposed congestion control scheme is designed based on DCCP(Datagram Congestion Control Protocol) being proposed by IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force) and implemented on the Linux kernel. In simulation results, the proposed congestion control scheme provides good bandwidth throughput in wireless network as well as in wired network.

The OFDMA Physical layer in the WiMAX standard of IEEE 802.16e adopts 114 LDPC codes with various code rates and block sizes as a channel coding scheme to meet varying channel environments and different requirements for transmission performance. In this paper, the performances of the LDPC codes are evaluated according to various code rates and block-lengths throueh simulation studies using min-sum decoding algorithm in AWGN chamois. As the block-length increases and the code rate decreases, the BER performance improves. In the cases with code rates of 2/3 and 3/4, where two different codes ate specified for each code rate, the codes with code rates of 2/3A and 3/4B outperform those of 2/3B and 3/4A, respectively. Through the statistical analyses of the number of decoding iterations the decoding complexity and the word error rates of LDPC codes are estimated. The results can be used to trade-off between the performance and the complexity in designs of LDPC decoders.

The sensor network for the health care application service has the man or movable object as the main sensing object. In order to support inter-node interaction by the movement of such sensing objects, the node's dynamic function modification, dynamic self-configuration and energy efficiency must be considered. In this paper, the Agilla model which supports the dynamic function modification through the agent migration between nodes and LEACH protocol which guarantees the dynamic self-configuration and energy efficiency through the configuration of inter-node hierarchical cluster configuration are analyzed. Based on the results of the analysis, the Mobility Agent Middleware which supports the dynamic function modification between nodes is designed, and LEACH_Mobile protocol which guarantees the node nobility as the weakness of the existing LEACH protocol is suggested. Also, the routing module which supports the LEACH_Mobile protocol is designed and the interface for conjunction with Mobility Agent Middleware is designed. Then, it is definitely increase performance which un mobility node of transfer data rate through LEACH_Mobile protocol of simulation result.

In this paper, we propose a new automatic fingerprint identification system that identifies individuals in large databases. The algorithm consists of three steps: preprocessing, classification, and matching, in the classification, we present a new classification technique based on the statistical approach for directional image distribution. In matching, we also describe improved minutiae candidate pair extraction algorithm that is faster and more accurate than existing algorithm. In matching stage, we extract fingerprint minutiaes from its thinned image for accuracy, and introduce matching process using minutiae linking information. Introduction of linking information into the minutiae matching process is a simple but accurate way, which solves the problem of reference minutiae pair selection in comparison stage of two fingerprints quickly. This algorithm is invariant to translation and rotation of fingerprint. The proposed system was tested on 1000 fingerprint images from the semiconductor chip style scanner. Experimental results reveal false acceptance rate is decreased and genuine acceptance rate is increased than existing method.

MANET transmits data by hop-by-hop method because it is composed of mobile nodes without support of any infrastructure. Its structure is very similar to a block chain. However, it is exposed to various threats such as data tampering or destruction by malicious nodes because of transmission method. So, ensuring the integrity of transmitted data is an important complement to MANET. In this paper, we propose a method to apply the block chain technique in order to protect the reliability value of the nodes consisting the network from malicious nodes. For this, hierarchical structure of a cluster type is used. Only cluster head stores the reliability information of the nodes in a block and then, this can be spread. In addition, we applied block generation difficulty automatic setting technique using the number of nodes selecting cluster head and the reliability of cluster head to prevent the spread of wrong blocks. This can prevent block generation and spread by malicious nodes. The superior performance of the proposed technique can be verified by comparing experiments with the SAODV technique.
