Voice over IP is a telephone service which sends and receives the voices through the Internet. Because the infrastructure of wireless and mobile communication networks such as 3G, Wi-Fi and WiMAX has expanded, the study about Mobile VoIP, which provides the voice service from wireless network, has been actively in progress. Since Rei 6 HSPA in 3GPP and Rev A lxEVDO in 3GPP2, VoIP through the data channel is more efficient than circuit switch. It is predicted that VoIP over 4G will be more effective and 4G mobile VoIP business will be vitalized in the future. In addition, there are businesses which offer VoWLAN by using software such as Skype and Fring. They provide services which cheapen the price of international calls and long distance calls. This paper will present the Korean and other countries' mobile VoIP trends, its classification along the network connection, the study on techniques, and conditions of mobile VoIP. It also will be described a view of terminal convergence and service convergence.

Recently, preparations for 6G have led to the increasing interest in integrated or hybrid communication networks considering low-orbit satellite communication networks with terrestrial mobile communication networks. In addition, the demand for frequency allocation for new mobile services from low-orbit small satellites to provide global internet of things (IoT) services is increasing. The operation of such satellites and terrestrial mobile communication networks may inevitably cause interference in adjacent bands and the same band frequency between satellites and terrestrial systems. Focusing on the results of the recent ITU-R WP4C meeting, this study introduces the current status of frequency sharing and interference issues between satellites and terrestrial systems, and frequency allocation issues for new mobile satellite operations. Coexistence and compatibility studies with terrestrial IMT in L band and 2.6 GHz band, operated by Inmassat and India, respectively, and a new frequency allocation study (WRC-23 AI 1.18) are carried out to reflect satellite IoT demand. For the L band, technical requirements have been developed for emission from IMT devices at 1,492 MHz to 1,518 MHz to bands above 1,518 MHz. Related studies in the 2 GHz and 2.6 GHz bands are not discussed due to lack of contributions at the recent meeting. In particular, concerning the WRC-23 agenda 1.18 study on the new frequency allocation method of narrowband mobile satellite work in the Region 1 candidate band 2,010 MHz to 2,025 MHz, Region 2 candidate bands 1,695 MHz to 1,710 MHz, 3,300 MHz to 3,315 MHz, and 3,385 MHz to 3,400 MHz, ITU-R results show no new frequency allocation to narrow mobile satellite services. Given the expected various collaborations between satellites and the terrestrial component are in the future, interference issues between terrestrial IMT and mobile satellite services are similarly expected to continuously increase. Therefore, participation in related studies at ITU-R WP4C and active response to protect terrestrial IMT are necessary to protect domestic radio resources and secure additional frequencies reflecting satellite service use plans.

Wireless access technologies are emerging to enable high data rates for mobile users and novel applications that encompass both human and machine-type interactions. An essential approach to meet the rising demands on network capacity and offer high coverage for wireless users on upcoming fifth generation (5G) networks is heterogeneous networks (HetNets), which are generated by combining the installation of macro cells with a large number of densely distributed small cells Deployment in 5G architecture has several issues because to the rising complexity of network topology in 5G HetNets with many distinct base station types. Aside from the numerous benefits that dense small cell deployment delivers, it also introduces key mobility management issues such as frequent handover (HO), failures, delays and pingpong HO. This article investigates 5G HetNet mobility management in terms of radio resource control. This article also discusses the key challenges for 5G mobility management.

본 논문은 실시간 파노라마를 위한 영상의 특징점 검출 방법을 제안한다. 파노라마 연구는 최근 실시간 지역탐색이나 DVR 등에 적용하는 연구가 최근 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 특징 점 검출은 파노라마를 이루는 가장 중요한 요소이다. 특징 점 검출을 위해서는 어떠한 명암 변화에도 특징점은 불변이어야 하며 이미지의 크기와 회전이 변화하더라도 불변의 점을 찾아야 한다. 기존 연구방법은 고차원적인 벡터와 많은 후보 점을 선점하기 때문에 연산량이 많고 수행시간이 길어 실시간에 활용하기에는 어려운 점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 보다 빠른 실시간 특징 점 검출을 위해 LoG 방법을 비트단위로 분할 후 결합하는 BLoG 방법을 제안하고 다양한 실험을 통하여 속도와 연산량 그리고 검출 성능에 대하여 비교한다.

Uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become a vital element in nonterrestrial networks, especially with respect to 5G communication systems and beyond. The use of UAVs in support of 4G/5G base station (uncrewed aerial vehicle base station [UAV-BS]) has proven to be a practical solution for extending cellular network services to areas where conventional infrastructures are unavailable. In this study, we introduce a UAV-BS system that utilizes a high-capacity wireless backhaul operating in millimeter-wave frequency bands. This system can achieve a maximum throughput of 1.3 Gbps while delivering data at a rate of 300 Mbps, even at distances of 10 km. We also present the details of our testbed implementation alongside the performance results obtained from field tests.

With the advent of new convergence services, the requirements of 5G mobile communication systems are being newly derived. The 5G mobile communication system has been evolving to solve requirements that cannot be satisfied with existing 4G mobile communication systems, such as a high user experience transmission rate, short transmission delay, and high connection density. The evolution of a 5G mobile communication system to meet the new requirements is expected to be dominated by the UDN environment in which a number of small cells are concentrated. The 5G wireless backhaul system, which has advantages in terms of initial installation and operation cost, is expected to be an indispensable choice for connecting many small cells and core networks. This paper therefore looks at the frequency band characteristics and requirements applicable to 5G wireless backhaul systems that can accommodate new situations, and introduces key related technologies that can satisfy the 5G wireless backhaul requirements.. In addition, we describe the research and development trends of a 5G wireless backhaul system that is currently under development.

Mobile cellular networks are becoming increasingly complex to manage while classical deployment/optimization techniques and current solutions (i.e., cell densification, acquiring more spectrum, etc.) are cost-ineffective and thus seen as stopgaps. This calls for development of novel approaches that leverage recent advances in storage/memory, context-awareness, edge/cloud computing, and falls into framework of big data. However, the big data by itself is yet another complex phenomena to handle and comes with its notorious 4V: Velocity, voracity, volume, and variety. In this work, we address these issues in optimization of 5G wireless networks via the notion of proactive caching at the base stations. In particular, we investigate the gains of proactive caching in terms of backhaul offloadings and request satisfactions, while tackling the large-amount of available data for content popularity estimation. In order to estimate the content popularity, we first collect users' mobile traffic data from a Turkish telecom operator from several base stations in hours of time interval. Then, an analysis is carried out locally on a big data platformand the gains of proactive caching at the base stations are investigated via numerical simulations. It turns out that several gains are possible depending on the level of available information and storage size. For instance, with 10% of content ratings and 15.4Gbyte of storage size (87%of total catalog size), proactive caching achieves 100% of request satisfaction and offloads 98% of the backhaul when considering 16 base stations.

Several studies on machine learning (ML) based self-organizing networks (SONs) have been conducted, specifically for LTE, since studies to apply ML to optimize mobile communication systems started with 2G. However, they are still in the infancy stage. Owing to the complicated KPIs and stringent user requirements of 5G, it is necessary to design the 5G SON engine with intelligence to enable users to seamlessly and unlimitedly achieve connectivity regardless of the state of the mobile communication network. Therefore, in this study, we analyze and summarize the current state of machine learning studies applied to SONs as solutions to the complicated optimization problems that are caused by the unpredictable context of mobile communication scenarios.

5G 시스템에서는, 통신 서비스가 4G 통신보다 더욱 더 빠른 망 연결을 요구한다. 최근, 선도적인 5G 기술들 중 하나로 비직교 다중접속이 주목받고 있다. 비직교 다중접속에서는 사용자들이 주파수와 시간을 공유하여, 더 많은 사용자들이 동시에 서비스를 받을 수가 있다. LTE와 같은 직교 다중접속과 비교하면, 비직교 다중접속은 더 큰 시스템 용량과 초저 지연과 같은 장점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 비직교 다중접속의 SIC에 채널 추정 오류가 미치는 영향을 고찰한다. 우선, 채널 추정 오류를 가지는 수신기의 폐쇄형 수식을 구한다. 그리고 채널 추정 오류의 BER를 완벽한 채널 추정의 BER과 비교한다, 또한, 채널 추정 오류로 발생하는 SNR 손실을 분석한다.
