Due to the growth of optical fiber network technologies, most networks recently support several tens of Gb/s bandwidth. UDT(UDP-based Data Transfer protocol) is an optimized protocol for bulk data transmission on the network, which has the high bandwidth and long delay time. It periodically controls the sending rate on the fixed sync-interval, 0.01 sec. Here, if the network traffic status varies quickly, available network bandwidth is not able to be properly utilized in-between the sync-intervals. In this paper, we propose an adaptive rate control method with considering the network traffic status in-between the sync-interval periods. The network traffic status is determined based on the RTT variances. With dividing the network status into four classes, the proposed method performs a new rate control by adjusting the inter-packet sending period for a corresponding class. As a simulation result, the proposed method improves the message delivery throughput as well as stability than that of the existing UDT Protocol.

This paper presents an analytical method for finding the optimum transmission range in mobile ad hoc networks(MANETs). The results are particularly useful for the operation of military networks, as the transmission range affects the traffic throughput of user & routing traffic, delay, and frequency interference. When the conditions of tactical environment are applied in our simulations and the above-mentioned performances are analyzed, we find the OLSR protocol is more excellent. Plus, we compare the results of MANETs performance when applying optimum transmission range and the default transmission range(10km), and analyze the reasonability of the calculation of optimum transmission range proposed by this paper.

In this paper, a scheduling algorithm is proposed for military satellite networks to improve QoS(Quality of Service) based on WDRR(Weighted Deficit Round Robin) method. When the packet size that has been queued to be larger, the proposed scheme DWDRR(Dynamic WDRR) method give appropriate additional quantum using EWMA(Exponentially Weighted Moving Average). To demonstrate an usefulness of proposed algorithm using OPNET modeler that built the simulation environment, reliability and real-time availability of the proposed algorithm is analyzed. The simulation results show an availability of proposed scheme in terms of reduce queuing delay and packet drop rate compared and analyzed the existing algorithms WRR(Weighted Round Robin), DRR(Deficit Round Robin) and WDRR with DWDRR.

A key challenge for Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) is to maximize the network lifetime with power-efficient and flexible duty cycling techniques on energy-constraint sensor nodes. In this paper, we propose a novel power-efficient MAC protocol for WBAN that accommodates normal, emergency, and on-demand traffic in a reliable manner. This protocol supports two wakeup mechanisms, a traffic-based wakeup mechanism, which accommodates normal traffic by exploiting the node's traffic patterns, and a wakeup radio mechanism, which accommodates emergency and on-demand traffic by using a wakeup radio. It can be seen that the proposed protocol not only improves the lifetime of WBAN but also provides a reliable method to handle sporadic events. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol outperforms WiseMAC in terms of low-power consumption and delay.

Due to the spread of mobile devices and the introduction of high-quality services, mobile traffic is expected to increase sharply and overload of cellular networks is expected. D2D communication is a way to reduce the load and evolve to 5th generation. Since D2D communication directly communicates between the terminals, it can reduce the overload of the cellular network and improve energy efficiency, data rate and network performance. This paper proposes a D2D handover scheme for D2D communication in cellular networks. The cellular network is a 3GPP EPS, and the proposed D2D handover method improves the existing EPS handover process considering compatibility between existing EPS and D2D communication. We also demonstrate the superiority of the proposed handover scheme using the network simulator ns-3. Simulation results show that the proposed handover scheme is superior to existing handover methods in terms of CUE variation, packet transmission delay time, and throughput.

With increasing use of a personal mobile computer. the Mobile IPv6 is one of the main protocols that support mobility and complies with IPv6 specification. Similar to the mobile IPv6, the mobile IPv6 also has limitations on fast moving condition. The Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 is a solution that overcomes these limitations. The Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 is a micro mobility protocol that supports fast mobile IP handover and reduces signaling overhead with Mobility Anchor Point(MAP). But until now no paging method is applied to the Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 to reduce unnecessary signaling overhead and power consumption of mobile nodes. So, the paging mechanism for the Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 is proposed in this paper. the mechanism is implemented by making use of the destination option header and extension function and the last location algorithm. The results show that the Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 with the paging ability reduces the traffic of mobile networks by removing unnecessary binding update packet generated whenever handover takes place. Also, the larger the paging size is. the less the number of BU(Binding Update) massage generated.

Cognitive radio, a new paradigm for wireless communication, is being recently expected to support various types of multimedia traffics. To guarantee Quality of Service (QoS) from SUs, a static packet priority policy can be considered. However, this approach can easily satisfy Quality of Service of high priority application while that of lower priority applications is being degraded. In the paper, we propose a fuzzy-based dynamic packet scheduling algorithm to support multimedia traffics in which the dynamic packet scheduler modifies priorities of packets according to Fuzzy-rules with the information of priority and delay deadline of each packet, and determines which packet would be transmitted through the channel of the primary user in the next time slot in order to reduce packet loss rate. Our simulation result shows that packet loss rate can be improved through the proposed scheme when overall traffic load is not heavy.

Mobile wireless networks have received a lot of attention as a future wireless network due to its rapid deployment without communication infrastructure. In these networks communication path between two arbitrary nodes break down because some links in the path are beyond transmission range($r_0$) due to the mobility of the nodes. The set of total path break down time(${\bigcup}T_i$), which is the union of path break down time of every node pair, can be a good measure of the connectivity of the dynamic mobile wireless network. In this paper we show that the distribution of the total path break down time can be approximated as a exponential probability density function and confirms it through experimental data. Statistical knowledge of break down time enables quantitative prediction of delay, packet loss between two nodes, thus provides confidence in the simulation results of mobile wireless networks.

Per-packet scheduling is more suitable than per-flow scheduling to reduce the flow completion time by efficiently utilizing resources in data center networks. Recently, many per-packet scheduling schemes utilizing multiple paths have been proposed. However, to mitigate the negative effect of packet reordering on TCP performance, most of the schemes require supplemental measures such as putting packets in order at the lower layer. In this study, we investigate how well DCTCP, which is a representative TCP for data center networks, performs with per-packet scheduling through simulation. Simulation results show that DCTCP keeps the queue length short but that DCTCP shows low fairness due to the way of reducing the congestion window by ECN.

In this paper, we propose a simplified tag collection algorithm to improve the performances of ISO/IEC 18000-7, which is a standard for an active RFID system. The proposed algorithm modifies the collection command that enables to start a tag collection round. The modified collection command includes the results of the listen period response for the previous collection round. Tags that receive the collection command check the collision status for their responses. If there is no collision, tags transmit their additional data and go into the sleep mode without the point-to-point read command and sleep command. A collection round for the standard consists of a collection command and response, a read command and response, and sleep command. On the other hand, in the proposed algorithm, a collection round consists of a collection command and response. The simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm can improve the identification delay about 16% compared with the standard when the number of tags are 300.
