In order to become ubiquitous world, the compatibility of wireless machines has become the significant characteristic of a communication terminal. Thus, SDR is the most necessary technology and standard. However, among the environment which has different communication protocol, it's difficult to make a terminal with only hardware using ASIC or SoC. This paper suggests the processor that can accelerate several communication protocol. It can be connected with main-processor, and it is specialized PHY layer of network The C-program that is modeled with the wireless protocol IEEE802.11a and IEEE802.11b which are based on widely used modulation way; OFDM and CDM is compiled with ARM cross compiler and done simulation and profiling with Simplescalar-Arm version. The result of profiling, most operations were Viterbi operations and complex floating point operations. According to this result we suggested a co-processor which can accelerate Viterbi operations and complex floating point operations and added instructions. These instructions are simulated with Simplescalar-Arm version. The result of this simulation, comparing with computing only one ARM core, the operations of Viterbi improved as fast as 4.5 times. And the operations of complex floating point improved as fast as twice. The operations of IEEE802.11a are 3 times faster, and the operations of IEEE802.11b are 1.5 times faster.

This paper focuses in the implementation of mesh router supporting multi-path routing based on IEEE 802.11s. In HWMP of IEEE 802.11s, the single path routing just was defined. So, in this work, we implemented not only the single path routing defined in IEEE 802.11s, but also a multipath routing based on AOMDV which extended the standard. A multi-channel multi-interface technology that can transmit and receive simultaneously and lower bandwidth reduction caused by interferences than a single-channel single-interface was implemented in our mesh router. We also developed an outdoor test bed with the mesh routers. The bandwidth of the mesh router and a real-time video streaming service were verified using the test bed. And, the single path and multipath routing algorithms are also compared. In this test bed, The average TCP bandwidth was 23.77 Mbps and the latency was 2.4 ms in five hops. The test bed could service real-time streaming with an average jitter of 0.547 ms in five hops. The mesh router that used the multipath routing path reduced the path recovery time by 12.73% on average.

VANET(Vehicular Ad-hoc Network), standardization of IEEE 802.11p specification is in process. 802.11 MAC protocol grants all nodes equal opportunity to acquire channel without regard to their bit-rates, making it possible for lower bit-rate nodes to occupy communication channel for a fair amount of time thus keeping the higher bit-rate nodes from acquiring connection channel which downward-equalize the overall network performance. Also with the 802.11p MAC protocol, the probability of collision occurring increases as the number of nodes grow. The proposed algorithm is a new MAC protocol that guarantees nodes with acquired channel a firm priority over other nodes for a fixed amount of time with TXOP concept added to 'packet burst' according to the current transmitting speed. This newly designed algorithm allows the construction of wireless network with enhanced network throughput, decreased probability of collisions as well as providing the means to grant each node a fair chance of acquiring connection according to their channel conditions. The algorithm sets the CW's (Contention Window) width wider than the standard's and modulates the continuous transmitting threshold value depending on channel acquired time, thus improving the overall performance of the network.

본 논문에서는 블록 FEC(Forward Error Correction) 알고리즘을 적용한 IEEE 802.11e MAC(Medium Access Control)의 블록전송모드(Block Transfer Mode)의 성능을 분석한다. 성능 향상을 위해서 IEEE 802.11e MAC은 TXOP(Transmission Opportunity)시간 동안 특정 스테이션(station)에게 독점적인 전송 기회를 부여하며, 이 기간동안 하나의 블록 즉 연속적으로 여러 개의 데이터 프레임(frame)을 전송한다. 수신자는 블록내의 각 프레임에 수신 여부를 블록 ack (block Acknowledgment)방식, 즉 하나의 ack 패킷이 모든 수신 프레임의 일련번호를 모아 알려 준다. 그러나 오류가 빈번한 무선 채널 환경에서는 블록 ack 방식을 사용하더라도 빈번한 재전송으로 인해 채널의 성능이 현저히 감소한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 심볼 단위로 오류를 복원하는 블록 FEC 알고리즘을 적용할 수 있는데, 본 논문에서는 802.11e에서 FEC 알고리즘을 적응하는 두 가지 방식의 성능을 해석적으로 분석한다. 즉 두 가지 방식은 프레임 당 블록 FEC를 적용하는 방법과 전체 블록 내의 프레임을 하나의 데이터로 간주하여 FEC를 적용하는 방식이다. 본 논문에서는 이 들 두 가지 방식의 채널 성능 향상 정도와 블록 ack만을 사용한 경우의 성능을 수식적으로 계산한다. 실험에 의하면 BER이 $10^{-4}$인 채널 환경에서 블록 FEC를 적용한 방식이 블록 ack를 사용한 방식에 비해 약 1.5%의 성능향상을 보인다.

This paper proposes an analytical model to calculate VoIP (Voice of IP) capacity over wireless LANs with frequent bit errors. Since the traditional analytical models for VoIP capacity have not included the effect of bit errors, simulations ould only evaluate VoIP capacity over erroneous channels. For analytically accurate estimation of VoIP capacity over noisy channels, we extend the conventional model to include the effect of propagation errors, end-to-end delay, voice quality, the waiting time in AP(Access Point). The experiments show that our model predicts the VoIP capacity of a given network within the range from 3% to 9% difference comparing with the simulation results.

This paper explores the throughput of DCF protocol with both the traffic intensity and MSDU size at the MAC layer in the 802.11a wireless LAN. By exploring the throughput of DCF protocol with the data rate of 6Mbps, 12 Mbps, 24 Mbps and 54 Mbps, we find the fact that the less the data rate be, the higher the throughput be. We also find, from the throughput calculation by means of traffic intensity and MSDU size, that the longer the MSDU size is, the higher the throughput is. We also found the traffic intensity that the throughput is at the maximum point with the fixed MSDU size.

In a contention-based wireless LAN protocol, maximization of channel utilization and fair bandwidth allocations are main topics to deal with. But it is very difficult to achieve these two goals simultaneously. Many studies have been done to achieve these goals. In this paper we propose a control mechanism to support fair transmissions among traffic classes in IEEE 802.11e Wireless LAN. The proposed algorithm uses short-term and long-term transmission times of each traffic classes to control their $CW_{min}$ for fairness. The proposed algorithm don't need to know the exact number of nodes in the networks to support fairness as other studies do. Furthermore any modifications in AP and mobile hosts are not required.

In this paper, The existing interference alignment algorithms were analyzed in Rayleigh fading channel environment. The interference alignment techniques are divided to two parts. First thing is Iterative-method, another is Linear-method. Iterative method needs local channel info, but it has the constraint of iteration. On the other hand Linear-method must have global channel info, but has free of iteration and better performance. This paper evaluates the performance of interference alignment algorithms in Rayleigh fading channel of outdoor environment and WLAN channel based on IEEE 802.11n of indoor environment.

The IEEE 802.11p-based wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE) [1] communication is a method used exclusively for wireless communication on the road. This technique enables information sharing not only among moving vehicles but also between vehicles and infrastructure [2]. As part of WAVE communication, data is transmitted to and from vehicles in motion; in this case, it is difficult to determine the channel accurately in an outdoor environment owing to the Doppler shift [3]. This paper proposes a new channel estimation scheme for enhancing the reception performance of the IEEE 802.11p-based WAVE system. The proposed technique obtains the initial channel value by estimating the least square in the time domain by inserting a pilot signal for channel estimation into the IEEE 802.11p virtual subcarrier. Subsequently, a least mean square algorithm is applied to the initial channel value to update the estimated channel value. The simulation results obtained using the proposed channel estimation technique confirm its remarkable efficiency.
