Recently, many countries have been developing new protocols to improve the performance of tactical ad hoc networks for implementing NCW (Network Centric Warfare). Combat net radio (CNR) networks are the most important communication infra for the ground forces such as infantry of Army. U.S. Army had developed MIL-STD-188-220D that is the Interoperability Standard for DMTDs (Digital Messages Transfer Device Subsystems) for voice and data communication in CNR. MIL-STD-188-220D is a candidate for MAC protocol of TMMR which is next radio and has a few constraints to used in TMMR. NAD (Network Access Delay) defined in MIL-STD-188-220D needs time synchronization to avoid collision. However, it is difficult for time synchronization to fit in multi-hop environment. We suggest the enhanced DAP (Deterministic Adaptable Priority)-NAD to prevent conflicts and decrease delays in multi-hop CNR. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves the performance in multi-hop CNR networks.

Geo-location using a cellular network is a core technology for LBS together with GPS. With preamble symbols broadcasted in each frame, geo-location using WiBro network can be easily implemented. Because the WiBro network has a cellular structure, it is difficult for a mobile station to detect signals from multiple base stations. In order to get user position using trilateration, long integration techniques for sensitivity enhancement should be employed. This paper presents hybrid integration scheme for WiBro network. By analyzing coherent and non-coherent integration loss according to frequency residual and SNR respectively, optimal combination of the hybrid integration is proposed. Simulation results show that the hybrid integration method is profitable in WiBro network when the frequency residual is estimated and compensated accurately.

셀룰라망을 이용한 위치보고체계는 전파통달거리를 고려한 셀 단위로 구축하였기 때문에 지휘망을 이용하는 방안에 비해 신뢰성 있는 보고를 기대할 수 있으며, 동일한 정보를 1, 2차 상급부대에 중복 보고할 필요가 없고, 일정거리 이상의 다른 셀에서 같은 대역의 주파수를 사용해도 무방하므로 주파수 재사용의 효과도 거둘 수 있다. 아울러 인터넷과 데이터 베이스 관리 시스템을 소프트웨어로 효과적으로 연동시킴으로써 현재 상용에서 각광 받고 있는 Web-Server 개념을 군 무선 데이터 통신에 도입하고 하드웨어도 대용량의 지능망으로 발전한다면 위치보고 뿐만 아니라 늘어나는 정보를 효과적으로 처리하기에 충분하리라 판단된다.

Co-existence of various wireless systems may cause frequency interference problem. For this reason, frequency sharing studies play a very important role in order to use limited spectrum resources efficiently. Especially, because a satellite system covers a global area in nature, the frequency sharing between the satellite system and terrestrial systems is essential. For satellite systems using Ka bands, we can increase spectrum efficiency by considering off-axis angles of earth station antenna. In this paper, we demonstrate the analysis result of separation distance between the satellite earth station and a terrestrial repeater, and the presented results can be used to design and implement Ka band wireless systems.

지상파 방송 4사(KBS, MBC, SBS, EBS)는 지난 2012년 10월 9일부터 12월 31일까지 3개월간 KBS 관악산 송신소에서 지상파 상용망에서 4K-UHDTV(Ultra High Definition Television) 실험방송을 실시하였다. 세계 최초로 이루어진 실험인 만큼, 국내뿐만 아니라 미국, 일본, 유럽의 DTV 선진국에서도 많은 관심을 보였다. 무선국 허가에서부터 송출, 전송, 수신, 평가 등 실험방송 기획, 구축 및 운용은 KBS에서 담당하였고, KBS를 포함한 각 사들은 4K UHDTV 실험방송용 콘텐츠의 기획, 제작, HEVC 부호화, TS 스트림 다중화를 담당하였다. 본 실험방송을 통해 지상파 방송사들은 6MHz 대역에서 4K-UHDTV 서비스 실현 가능성을 확인하고, 콘텐츠 제작 노하우를 확보하였다. 더불어 방송망 계획을 위한 전송, 부호화, 수신 파라미터 도출에 성공하였다. 2012년의 1차 실험방송에서는 6MHz 대역을 활용한 100W급 4K-30프레임 송수신 실험, 관악산 송신소 중심 5km 반경 15개 지점에 대한 필드테스트를 실시하였다. 2013년에는 1kW급 4K-60 프레임 중심의 제2차 실험방송을 추진하고 있으며, 이는 상용 방송네트워크를 활용한 4K UHDTV의 조기 실현 가능성을 다각도로 파악할 가치 있는 기회가 될 것이다.

This paper analyzes the hazard related to train control, the functional requirements for atrain control system(TCS) and the automatic train protection(ATP) functional allocation that ensures the interoperability of a radio communications-based TCS. In addition, the interoperability can be obtained using wireless communications technology standards and standardized functional allocations of TCS performed on the wayside and onboard. Using this information, an integrated operating system for a rail network can be constructed. The functional allocations of TCS that support interoperability, require hazard analysis of TCS and definition of the system requirements. The hazard factors for a TCS are confirmed through setting the train safety space control and train speed limit excess. Furthermore, this paper determines the impact of the hazard factors on the TCS and, defines the functional requirements for the TCS subsystems and the ATP wayside and onboard functional allocations.

The tactical mobile ad-hoc network(MANET) consists of distributed autonomous networks between individual ground nodes, which is effective in terms of network survivability and flexibility. However, due to constraints such as limited power, terrain, and mobility, frequent link disconnection and shadow area may occur in communication. On the other hand, the satellite network has the advantage of providing a wide-area wireless link overcoming terrain and mobility, but has limited bandwidth and high-latency characteristic. In the future battlefield, an integrated network architecture for interworking multi-layer networks through a heterogeneous network gateway (HNG) is required to overcome the limitations of the existing individual networks and increase reliability and efficiency of communication. In this paper, we propose a new HNG architecture and detailed algorithm that integrates satellite network and the tactical MANET and enables reliable data transfer based on flow characteristics of traffic. The simulations validated the proposed architecture using Riverbed Modeler, a network-level simulator.

The terrestrial wireless backbone network and satellite communications system have been independently developed depending on their own purposes and operational concepts, which results in different characteristics in terms of network architecture and routing protocol operation. In this paper, we propose a method for structurally integrating them in consideration of routing mechanism in an autonomous system. Our approach is that the routers of satellite network operate the OSPF in PTP mode on their interfaces connected to the routers of terrestrial wireless backbone network with grid connectivity, whereas the OSPF in satellite network whose topology is of hub-spoke type runs in NBMA mode. We perform some simulations to verify that the satellite communications system can be integrated and interwork with the terrestrial wireless backbone network by our proposed approach. From simulation results, it is also found that the increases of network convergence time and routing overhead are acceptable.

The mobile communication based train control is the train control system by utilizing wireless communication rather than conventional wired communication. Traditional train control operates train occupation, safety integrity and moving authority using fixed block wired railway signal system. Since introduction of mobile communication in railway area, railway operators can provide improved passager services. Futhermore, it can replace inefficient train onboard equipments and railway ground facilities for economic benefits. In this paper we introduce mobile communication based railway system currently in operation around the world. Moreover, we provide the minimum requirements of the radio communication performance. Proposed minimum requirements of the radio communication improve more secure and efficient mobile communication based train control system.
