In wireless sensor networks, due to the many-to-one convergence of upstream traffic, congestion more probably appears. The existing congestion control protocols avoid congestion by controlling incoming traffic, but the duty-cycle operation of MAC(Medium Access Control) layer has not considered. In this paper, we propose DCA(Duty-cycle Based Congestion Avoidance), an energy efficient congestion control scheme using duty-cycle adjustment for wireless sensor networks. The DCA scheme uses both a resource control approach by increasing the packet reception rate of the receiving node and a traffic control approach by decreasing the packet transmission rate of the sending node for the congestion avoidance. Our results show that the DCA operates energy efficiently and achieves reliability by its congestion control scheme in duty-cycled wireless sensor networks.

In Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs), a sensor node broadcasts an acquisited data to neighboring other nodes and it makes serious data duplication problem that increases network traffic loads and data loss. This problem is concerned with the conflict condition for supporting both the reliability of data transfer and avoidance of network congestion. To solve the problem, a reliable congestion control protocol is necessary that considers critical factors affecting on data transfer reliability such as reliable data transmission, wireless loss, and congestion loss for supporting effective congestion control in WSNs. In this paper, we proposes a reliable congestion protocol, ratted HRCCP, based on hop-hop sequence number, and DSbACK by minimizing useless data transfers as an energy-saved congestion control method.

유무선 통합 환경에서의 기존의 TCP가 가지는 문제점은 혼잡 제어 알고리즘이 무선환경의 에러를 모두 congestion으로 인식하는 것에 있다. 무선환경에 의한 에러일 경우 네트워크의 상황이 좋음에도 불구하고 전송률을 낮춰서 네트워크의 성능을 떨어뜨리게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Link-layer가 발생시킨 이벤트를 통해 에러의 원인을 명확이 구분하여 기존의 TCP의 큰 수정이 없이도 성능을 크게 향상 시킬 수 있는 혼잡 제어 알고리즘을 제안한다.

As the multimedia application traffic takes more portion in the internet traffic, it is necessary to control the network congestion through the congestion control protocol. In addition, the QoS-enabled networks such as DiffServ become an indispensable technology when running the multimedia applications. However, the previously proposed end-to-end congestion control algorithms take the round trip time to react the network congestion. Thus, as the RTT becomes larger, the reaction against the congestion gets delayed further, while the network congestion gets worse. In addition the performance of end-to-end congestion control algorithm is degraded if the QoS-enabled network runs the congestion control mechanism in the network level without any coordination between them. In this paper, we propose the early rate adaptation protocol for the DiffServ network which effectively linke the congestion control algorithm at the host and the congestion mechanism in the network together. By taking advantage of early congestion notification from the network it is possible to react the network congestion more quickly and effectively.

자기 유사성(self-similarity)은 다양한 네트워크 환경에서 공통적으로 발생하는 현상인 것으로 정체 제어에서 자기 유사성 트래픽의 장거리 상관 구조를 활용할 가능성과 MTS(Multiple Time Scale) 정체 제어의 프레임워크를 발전시켜, 이 프레임워크가 전송 율 기반 피드백 제어의 성능을 향상시키는 데 시뮬레이션을 통해 트래픽 조건으로 다음과 같이 연구한다. 자기유사성 트래픽 조건에서 3가지 단계로 구성한다. 먼저 TCP의 모듈 형 확장에서 Tahoe, Reno, Vegas등 다양한 버전의 TCP에 적용되는 간단한 인터페이스를 통한 함수 호출을 정의하고, 이것이 성능을 크게 향상시는 것을 입증한다. 두 번째로, 광대역 WAN에서 지연-대역폭의 곱이 높을 경우 더욱 심각해지는 사후 제어의 불확실성 차이를 해소함으로써 MTS TCP가 기반 피드백 제어에 사전성을 부여한다는 것을 입증한다. 세번째는 트래픽 제어의 3가지 차원인, 즉 추적 능력, 연결 지속 기간, 공정성이 성능에 미치는 영향 등을 비교 분석하여 입증한다.

Wireless mesh network is flexible network like Ad hoc network or bluetooth together based on base station. But, wireless mesh network shows high packet loss and when TCP was created, however as it was design based on wired link, wireless link made more transmission error than wired link. It is existent problem of TCP congestion control algorithm that TCP unfairness and congestion collapse over wireless mesh network. When TCP operation occurs with the packet loss where is not the congestion loss, it brings the performance degradation which is serious. In this paper, in order to improve efficient TCP congestion control algorithm in wireless mesh network, we proposed that TCP can adaptively regulate the congestion window in wireless link.

교차로 교통신호제어의 입려정보로 단순히 차량의 대수만으로는 정확한 신호제어를 할 수가 없다. 여기에는 대기차량수, 도로의 길이, 차량의 형태 등을 고려한 도로의 혼잡량이라는 상징적 정보량이 적합하다고 할 수 있다. 그러나 상징적인 정보량은 입력정보인 실제적인 물리량사이에 서로 관련성이 없거나 상충적일 경우, 각 정보간의 선형성과 관련식을 도출하여 상징적인 정보를 얻는다는 것이 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 교통 신호처리에서 사용하는 상징적 정보량의 의미와 필요성을 고찰하여 본 후, 퍼지 이론을 통해 물리적인 교통 정보량을 이용 교통신호제어 상징적인 출력 정량인 교통 혼잡량을 산출하여 교통신호제어에 적용하여 기존의 교통신호제어와 비교하였다.

Unlike TCP Reno, TCP Vegas recognizes network congestion through the measuring of RTT (Round Trip Time) and decides the main congestion control parameters, such as Windows size. But, congestion avoidance scheme of Vegas poorly reflects asymmetric characteristics of packet path because TCP Vegas uses the measuring of RTT that reflects forward/backward packet transmission delay as a forward delay. The RTT can't infer the forward/backward transmission delay variation because it only measures the packet's turn around time. In this paper, We have designed and implemented a new Vegas congestion control algorithm that can distinguish forward/backward network congestion. We have modified the source codes of TCP Vegas in Linux 2.6 kernel and verified their performance.

인터넷 수요의 증대에 따라 오디오나 비디오 같은 실시간 전송을 요구하는 멀티미디어 데이터 응용들도 증가하게 되었다. 이런, 멀티미디어 데이터들의 전송은 패킷 손실과 지연을 최소화 하고, 대역폭 상태에 대해 TCP보다 순화된 전송률 조절이 가능한 혼잡제어 기법이 필요하다. Receiver-based 혼잡 제어방식은 network traffic의 변화에 신속히 대응할 수 있으며, 이 방식은 Sender-based 방식에 비해 멀티캐스팅 환경에 적당하다는 장점도 가진다. 본 논문에서는 인터넷 상에서 audio/video 데이터들의 종 단간 Layered Quality Adaptation을 제공하는 receiver-based 혼잡 제어 기법을 소개한다. 이를 통해 사용자들은 보다 좋은 QoS를 제공받을 수 있다.
