In the EH-WSN (Energy harvesting wireless sensor network), a MAC (medium access control) protocol is required to select a relay node considering the power status of a node. Existing EH-WSN studies emphasize the power aspect, so it does not consider the QoS like the urgency of the sensed data. The required power and transmission delay must be changed according to the urgency so that the medium access control according to the data QoS can be performed. In case of relay node, relaying data without consideration of data urgency and node power may cause delay due to power shortage in case of urgent data. In this paper, we designed a MAC protocol that minimizes the power shortage that can occur during emergency data generation. For this, relay node requirements are set differently according to the urgency of data. The performance was analyzed through simulation. Simulation results show the reduced latency and improved reliability of urgent data transmission.

In a cooperative communication system with a source node and multiple relays equipping single antenna and a destination node equipping multiple antennas, the selective cooperative spatial multiplexing scheme can obtain spatial multiplexing gain and additional selection diversity gain. But it can degrade a bit error rate performance because some received symbols forwarded from particular relays may be lost by attenuation due to path-loss. We propose a relay and transmission mode selection scheme which selects minimum number of multiple relays having the channel capacity larger than a given data rate and transmission mode which switches spatial multiplexing and spatial diversity mode in cooperation phase to enhance the bit error rate performance. The proposed scheme achieves 1.5~2dB gain at the low SNR range compared with the conventional scheme by obtaining additional spatial diversity gain.

This study has a purpose that improves efficiency of energy management and adaptation followed by movement of node better than the various early studied routing techniques. The purpose of this paper is the technique that uses RSSI value and location of sensor that is received by each sensor node to routing. This sduty does not save node information of 1-hop distance. And it solves energy-inefficient traffic problem that happens during data exchange process for middle node selection in close range multi hop transmission technique. The routing protocol technique that is proposed in this study selects a node relevant to the range of transmission which is set for RSSI value that is received by each node and selects the closest node as a middle node followed by location data. Therefore, it is for not exhaustion of node's energy by managing energy efficiently and cutting data transmission consuming until the destination node.

In this paper, we proposed an algorithm based on movement prediction using rate of change of the attribute information of nodes what is called WRC(Weighted Rate Control) in delay tolerant networks(DTNs). Existing DTN routing algorithms based on movement prediction communicate by selecting relay nodes increasing connectivity with destination node. Thus, because the mobile nodes are in flux, the prediction algorithms that do not reflect the newest attribute information of node decrease reliability. In this paper, proposed algorithm approximate speed and direction of attribute information of node and analysis rate of change of attribute information of node. Then, it predict movement path of node using proposed weight. As the result, proposed algorithm show that network overhead and transmission delay time decreased by predicting movement path of node.

In this paper, we investigate a physical-layer network coding (PNC) in a two-way relay channel (TWRC) where two sources send and receive data with each other by help of a relay node with multiple antennas. We focus on the multiple-access phase of the TWRC in this paper. It is assumed that the source nodes do not know the wireless channel and the wireless channel independently varies in time, that is, fast fading environments. At the relay node, the channel is assumed to be perfectly known. The relay node utilizes the channel sate information and applies maximum likelihood ratio for detecting received signals. Through extensive simulations, it is shown that a bit error rate (BER) performance becomes improved as the number of antennas at the relay node increases.

본 논문에서는 DSDV 프로토콜을 사용하여 MN의 이동으로 포워딩이 실패하면 smooth handoff방식을 사용하지 않고 바로 애드 혹 라우팅 기법을 통해 이동 노드를 통해 데이터그램을 전달하도록 하는 실험을 수행하였는데, DSDV 라우팅 프로토콜을 사용한 방식의 경우 핸드오프가 발생하지 않은 경우와 거의 같은 성능을 나타냈으며, MN의 개수에 따라서는 전송지연시간이 증가하나 핸드오프 발생간격에는 거의 무관하며 기존의 방식들에 비해 전송지연시간이 작아짐을 확인할 수 있다. 중계 노드의 이동은 DSDV 라우팅 방식의 가장 큰 문제점이지만 중계 노드의 이동속도가 실제로는 5m/sec이내가 대부분이므로 크게 문제되지는 않는다. 이와 같은 연구 결과를 캠퍼스와 같이 제한된 지역에서 활용할 경우 smooth handoff의 속도 지연에 대한 문제를 줄일 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

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.

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.
