Industrial WSNs need great performance and reliable communication. In industrial WSNs, cluster structure reduces the cost to form a network, and the reservation-based MAC is a more powerful and reliable protocol than the contention-based MAC. Depth-based TDMA assigns time slots to each sensor node in a cluster-based network and it works in a distributed manner. DB-TDMA is a type of depth-based TDMA and guarantees scalability and energy efficiency. However, it cannot allocate time slots in parallel and cannot perfectly avoid a collision because each node does not know the total network information. In this paper, we suggest an improved distributed algorithm to reduce the end-to-end delay of DB-TDMA, and the proposed algorithm is compared with DRAND and DB-TDMA.

In this paper, several improvements to a copy network proposed previously for multicast packet switching are described. The improvements provide a solution to some problems inherent in multicasting. The input fairness problem caused by overf low is solved by a dynamic starting point decider(DSD), which can calculate running sums of copy requests starting from any input port. The starting point is changed adaptively in every time slot based on both the fill level of the input buffers in current time slot and the overflow situations of the previous time slot. Using the fill level of the conventional network. The DSD also provides the function of regulating overall copy requests according to the amount of input traffics. This is an essential function in improving overall throughputs of the copy networks. The throughput of a multicast switch can be improved substantially if partial service of copy request is implemented when overflow occurs. Call-splitting can also be implemented by the DSD in a straightforward manner. The hardware for the DSD is derived with the objective of simple architectures for the high speed operation. Simulation study of the copy network under various traffic conditions is presented to evaluate its performance.

The problem of electromagnetic coupling into a thin conducting wire through a slot in an infinite conducting is analyzed by use of MPIE(mixed potential integral equation) and two- dimensional moment method using subsectional(rooftop) basis functions. The equivalent circuit is derived using a center-repesentation method which is valid in a narrow slot case. The equi- valent magnetic currents on the slot and the induced currents on the wire are caculated respec- tively, for the TM wave is incident upon the slot with arbitrary angle of incidence. The theoretical transmission coefficients of transmission line which is composed of thin-wire and infinite conducting plate with a narrow slot are compared and found to be in good agreement with experimental results.

Compared to a terrestrial communication, the high BER(Bit Error Ratio) and low channel bandwidth are the major factor of throughput degradation due to characteristics of underwater channel. Therefore, a MAC protocol must be designed to solve this problem in UWASNs(Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks). MAC protocols for UWASNs can be classified into two major types according to the contention scheme(Contention-free scheme and Contention-based scheme). In large scale of sensor networks, a Contention-based scheme is commonly used due to time-synchronize problem of Contention-free scheme. In the contention-based scheme, Each node contends with neighbor nodes to access network channel by using Back-off algorithm. But a Slot-Time of Back-off algorithm has long delay times which are cause of decrease network throughput. In this paper, we propose a new scheme to solve this problem. The proposed scheme uses variable Slot-Time instead of fixed Slot-Time. Each node measures propagation delay from neighbors which are used by Slot-time. Therefore, Slot-Times of each node are optimized by considering node deployment. Consequently, the wasted-time for Back-off is reduced and network throughput is improved. A new mac protocol performance in throughput and delay is assessed through NS3 and compared with existing MAC protocol(MACA-U). Finally, it was proved that the MAC protocol using the proposed scheme has better performance than existing MAC protocol as a result of comparison.

In beacon-enabled mode, beacon collision is a significant problem for the scalability of cluster-tree wireless sensor networks. In this paper, multi-channel time division scheduling (MCTS) is proposed to prevent beacon collisions and provide scalability. A coordinator broadcasts a beacon frame, including information on allocated channels and time-slots, and a new node determines its own channel and time-slot. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by comparing the proposed approach with a typical ZigBee. MCTS prevents beacon collisions in cluster-tree wireless sensor networks. It enables large-scale wireless sensor networks based on a cluster tree to be scalable and effectively constructed.

This paper proposes a wideband monopole antenna with improved band rejection characteristics by inserting two band notch slots with half wavelength in radiator. The designed antenna is composed of bow-tie patch fed electromagnetically with parasitic ground patch of a semicircular shape. We obtained band rejection filter-like characteristics by controlling coupling amounts between two horizontal resonance slots. Using this technique, we achieved the broad rejection bandwidth and improved skirt characteristics compared with only one notch slot. The measured bandwidth is from 2.7 GHz to 6.9 GHz for VSWR below 2.0 except the limited band of $4.96{\sim}5.51GHz$. This antenna shows a similar radiation pattern of the ideal monopole and the radiation gain reduction is more than $5{\sim}10dB$ on the x-z plane at rejection frequency.

A tag collision problem occurs when many tags are placed in a interrogation zone in RFID system. A tag collision problem is one of core issues and various protocols have been proposed to solve the collision problems. Generally tree-based protocols generate unique prefixes and identify tags with them as quick as possible. In this paper, we propose the QT-BCS protocol which decreases the identification time by reducing the number of query-response. The QT-BCS protocol makes a prefixes using time slot and bit change sensing unit. This protocol compares the current bit of tags until the current bit is differ from the previous one. When this occurs, all of the bits scanned so far are transferred to slot-0 and slot-1 depending on the first bit value in Reader. Consequently, this method can reduce the number of queries by tracing prefixes easily. Simulation result shows QT-BCS is more efficient in identifying tags than Query Tree and 4-ary Query Tree protocol.

In this paper, an RRA_CDMA protocol is proposed for the integrated voice and data services in the cellular packet CDMA systems. The proposed protocol employs the RRA scheme. In the cellular CDMA systems, the backward logical channels are composed of time slots with multiple spreading codes per slot based on WB-TD-CDMA concept. When a voice terminal begins a talkspurt, it reserves one of the available spreading codes in the next slot and uses the reserved channel exclusively untill it ends the talkspurt. On th other hand, whenever a data terminal generates a packet, it selects an avaliable spreading code and transmits its packet. Throughout the results, it is shown that the system capacity increases in proportion to the number of spreading codes.

Since the TD-SCDMA (Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access) system is based on TDD (Time Division Duplexing), the uplink and downlink can be allocated asymmetrically according to the traffic e.g. Web browsing. Although this asymmetric allocation can increase the frequency utilization, it may cause time slot opposing, which implies the time slot is assigned in opposing direction between cells. The time slot opposing can generate significant interference between cells, which results in severe performance degradation. In the paper, a novel dynamic channel allocation (DCA) is proposed in the TD-SCDMA system, to mitigate the impact of time slot opposing considering smart antenna. When the smart antenna is applied in the system, the inter-cell interference is largely affected by beam pattern and beam direction between neighboring cells. Therefore, the time slot opposing and smart antenna should be considered together in the DCA. The intensive simulations show that the proposed scheme can improve the system capacity compared to the conventional DCA schemes.
