This paper addresses schemes which securely transmit voice and data information under the worst communication environment using the frequency hopping(FH) communication system to avoid monitoring or interference against enemy. In case of using the conventional FEC and bit interleaving scheme. the processing time for error control coding and bit interleaving due to system complexity is highly demanded. In this paper. the effective information coding scheme of maprity error correction and block interleaving compatible to the proposed FH communication system is proposed to transmit voice or data (I6Kbps. 4.8Kbps. 2.4Kbps. 1.2Kbps, O.6Kbps) under the worst FH communication channel. In transmitter. low rate data signals are configured to majority data blocks. and transmitted repeatedly to FH channel which are structured to 20Kbps hopping frame cells. In receiver. the received data are decoded block by block, and taken majority error correction. Consequently. burst or random errors are corrected at the block deinterleaver and the majority decoder. The proposed coder structure reduces the coding/decnding processing time as well as the jamming interferences, and further simplify the data processing complexity for FH communication. Improved performance of the proposed scheme was verified under simulated channel environments.

Extension of the mobile communication and the rapidly developing services connected with wireless multimedia(W-CDMA, DMB, Wibro, and so on) need great many base station transceiver systems, antennas, and many signal transmission line to embody these services. The min communication appliances system is exposed always in danger of transient overvoltage by direct stroke or induced lightning surge flowing in through antenna because the antenna of base station transceiver system or relay equipment is combined with expensive communication network equipments through signal transmission line. Now, gas discharge tube(GDT) or narrow band stub arrestor which is used by the surge protector for communication use is exposing limitations as for lightning surge protective means of the communication facility with high speed and wide frequency band. Therefore, for improving performance of surge arrestor, we applied ceramic filter which can reduce lightning surge invading from antenna effectively, and proved that ceramic filter is effective in residual voltage reduction through the experimental research.

In this research, we suggest a real-time tele-driving system for unmanned fire truck control using the LTE communication system. The operator located in the safe area could drive the unmaned fire truck by implementing the secure tele-operation in case of the emergencies and disaster situation. A prototype of the unmaned fire truck was developed with a fire canon, a high pressure pump, a ball valve and a horse reel. The effect of time delay and FPS was quantified depending on the image sizes and the effective system for realtime tele-operation was suggested. To verify the suggested system, the test was performed between an operator and an unmanned fire truck which is approximately 30km apart. In this research, the immersion tele-driving system is suggested for real-time fire suppression with a 120ms time delay using LTE communication.

The purpose of present study is to provide an efficient 'Disaster Emergency Communication System' (below DECS) to deal with serious disaster situations in national levels. Currently, DECSs such as the VHF, UHF, and TRS are worked to control some disaster situations in the world. However, new system such as for sending the correct image and big data is more likely to need than current the DECSs in the comtemporary societies. Several serious disaster events such as the Sam-Poong Department Store Collapse, Daegu Subway Fire, and Sewol Submerge event, nevertheless, there was not the DECS based on the field in South Korea. In July 2014, finally, South Korean government started to provide a PS-LTE system which is the new and one system with fire fighting, police, army, railway. however, there are no many academic studies for DECSs to deal with disaster situations in South Korea. The present research highlights to explore an efficient DECS of Korean styles to fix some national security and public safety. The paper provides three key findings: first is how to make a unified Korean DECS based on PS-LTE. Second is how to make sure the frequency of 700MHz levels to communicate in the shady areas. Three is what kinds of communication facility is adequate for fixing PS-LTE DECS.

We propose relay selection schemes using STBC (Space Time Block Coding) technique in OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)-based wireless systems. The proposed schemes select the optimum relay having the maximum instantaneous equivalent channel gain among multiple candidate relays. Also, in order to reduce the system overhead, a symbol grouping method which groups some amount of symbols before selecting the optimum relay is proposed. The simulation results show that the proposed relay selection schemes can obtain more selection diversity gain as the number of selectable relay candidates increases. Furthermore, the proposed scheme with the symbol grouping can reduce system overhead without any degradation of the performance in fading channels with low frequency selectivity.

Cognitive radio technology enables to share the spectrum dedicated to primary users. In CR network, it is of primary concern to protect the primary users. Thus, it is required to periodically sense the spectrums occupied by primary users and adapt the communication parameters used by CR users to protect the primary users. However, it is inevitable to experience the hidden node problem due to the primary users, that are not detected by spectrum sensing. To perfectly protect the primary users, it is essential to address the hidden node problem in CR network. In this paper, we propose a new approach to handle the hidden node problem and evaluate the performance of proposed scheme.

Geographic routing has been considered as an efficient, simple, and scalable routing protocol for wireless sensor networks since it exploits pure local location information instead of global topology information to route data packets. Geographic routing requires the sources nodes to be aware of the location of sinks. Most existing geographic routing protocols merely assume that source nodes are aware of the locations of sinks. How can source nodes get the locations of sinks was not addressed in detail. In this paper, we propose a sink location service via circle path for geographic routing in wireless sensor networks. In this scheme, a sink sends a Sink Location Announcement (SLA) message along a circle path, and a source node sends a Sink Location Query (SLQ) message along a straight path that certainly passes through the circle path. By this way we can guarantee the SLQ path and SLA path have at least one crossing point. The node located on the crossing point of the two paths informs the source node the sink location. This procedure can correctly work in any irregular profile sensor networks such as network that has holes or irregular shape by some rules. Simulation results show that our protocol is superior to other protocols in terms of energy consumption and control overhead.

As smart-phones become popular, mobile data traffic has been dramatically increasing and intensive researches on the next-generation mobile communication network is in progress to meet the increasing demand for mobile data traffic. In particular, heterogeneous network (HetNet) is attracting much interest because it can significantly enhance the network capacity by increasing the spatial reuse with macro and small cells. In the HetNet, we have several problems such as load imbalance and interference because of the difference in transmit power between macro and small cells and cell range expansion (CRE) can mitigate the problems. In this paper, we propose a new cell selection scheme with adaptive cell range expansion bias (CREB) for ultra dense HetNet and we analyze the performance of the proposed scheme in terms of average cell transmission rate through system-level simulations and compare it with those of other schemes.

Like other wireless network protocols, IEEE 802.15.4 adopts CA (Collision Avoidance)algorithm to avoid the early collision of a new packet by randomizing its first transmission time rather than its immediate delivery. The traditional CA scheme of IEEE 802.15.4, however, selects the random access time from the predetermined range without considering the degree of current congestion. It probably causes either a long delay to settle in the suitable range for the current network load or frequent clashes especially during the long lasting heavy traffic period. This paper proposes an ACA(Adaptive Collision Avoidance) algorithm adapting the initial backoff range to the undergoing collision variations. It also introduces a mathematical model to predict the performance of ACA algorithm added to IEEE 802.15.4. With only small deviations from corresponding simulations, our analytical model shows that ACA technique can improve the throughput of IEEE 802.15.4 by up-to 41% maximally in addition to shortening the packet delays.
