For power constrained applications, IEEE 802.15.4 networks may be operated in beacon enabled mode with inactive period. h this paper, we propose the Virtual Arrival Mechanism (VAM) to avoid the congestion at the beginning of each contention access period (CAP). Virtual Arrival Mechanism (VAM) is a kind of traffic shaping that spread the traffics congested at the beginning of CAP into the whole CAP. By using VAM, collisions and energy consumption can be reduced. Finally, we evaluate the performance enhancement of VAM using NS-2 simulator.

RTLS is a system for automatically locating and tracking people and objects. The TDOA-based RTLS determines the location of the tag by calculating the time differences of a signal received from the tag. In TDOA-based RTLS, time synchronization is essential to calculate the time difference between readers. This paper presents a precision time synchronization method for TDOA-based RTLS over IEEE 802.15.4. In order to achieve precision time synchronization in IEEE 802.15.4 radio, we analyzed the error factors of delay and jitter. We also deal with the implementation of hardware assisted time stamping and the Kalman filtering method to minimize the error factors. In addition, this paper described the experiments and performance evaluation of the proposed precision time synchronization method in IEEE 802.15.4 radio. The results show that the nodes in a network can maintain their clocks to within 10 nanoseconds offset from the reference clock.

This paper presents a software design and implementation of software-defined radio based IEEE 802.11ac encoder using Texas Instruments TMS320C6670 digital signal processor (DSP) platform. In this paper, the implemented encoder has the capability of generating all the signals consisting of preamble field and data field under different modulation & coding scheme in the IEEE 802.11ac standard. Moreover, the flexibility in choosing different rate, bandwidth, or mode can also be achieved by software reconfiguration using the DSP. As a result, by utilizing the computing power provided by multi-cores as well as the FFT coprocessors in the DSP, the required maximum throughput 78Mbps can be fully reached within 4 ㎲ for each OFDM symbol in the case of 20MHz bandwidth of IEEE 802.11ac.

차세데 홈네트워크 환경하에서는 다양한 데이터 통신 무선기기들이 홈/오피스에서 공존할 것이다. 예를들어 무선랜, 블루투스(Bluetooth), 지그비(Zigbee), 무선 USB, UWB(Ultra Wideband) 등이 함께 주파수를 공유하게 될 것이며, 특히 ISM 대역은 서비스, 산업, 의료용 등으로 다양한 응용이 가느하기 때문에 전파 간섭이 예상된다. 본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11b 무선랜(WLAN)과 IEEE 802.15.4 저전력 저속 무선팬(WPAN) 무선기기에 대하여 간섭실험을 하였으며 두 무선기기가 상호 공존할 수 있는 공유 조건에 대해 분석하였다. 무선랜(WLAN)과 무선팬(WPAN)의 주파수 대역이 완전히 오버랩된 경우 간섭 레벨과 무선팬의 패킷 전송 횟수를 변화 시켜 상호간의 간섭 영향 저도를 측정하고 상호 무선기기간의 간섭 결과를 바탕으로 상호 무선기기간의 주파수 공유 조건을 제시하고자 한다.

Due to the development of information and communication, there is a rising interest on WBAN(Wireless Body Area Network) that maintain and check the human being health. According to the application of different quality of service and a special mechanism for transferring medical data are required in WBAN environment. In this paper, we proposed the new formed superframe that has CSMA/CA based TDMA scheduling and CSMA/CA used IEEE 802.15.4 in order to process emergency data and on-demand data in WBAN environment. We estimated performance of the proposed MAC protocol by compared performance of other MAC protocols that are IEEE 802.15.4 MAC protocl and Z-MAC protocol has contention access period based TDMA scheduling.

In this paper, a dynamic GTS scheduling method based on IEEE 802.15.4 is proposed for wireless control system. The proposed method can guarantee a transmission of real-time periodic and sporadic data within the time frame in factory environment. The modified superframe of IEEE 802.15.4 was used to the dynamic scheduling method of real-time mixed traffic(periodic data, sporadic data, and non real-time message). By separating CFP and CAP properly, the sporadic and non real-time messages are transmitted effectively and guarantee real-time transmission within a deadline. The simulation results show the improvement of real-time performance of periodic and sporadic data.

This paper analyze the effect of frequency offset for the IEEE 802.15.4b LR-WPAN(Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Network) with 915MHz bandwidth noncoherent DSSS O-QPSK based receiver system, and presents a compensation method with addition of differential filter to the system for compensation of frequency offset problem. DSSS PSSS-ASK and DSSS O-QPSK modulation techniques are accepted within the regularization of IEEE 802.15.4b. These new method can obtain 250kbps transmission rate. The DSSS O-QPSK modulation method that is used in this paper has no BER variation below 40ppm(frequency offset 36.6kHz), but if the offset frequency become high above 40ppm, then the system cannot have stable receiving condition due to worse BER. To solve this problem, we present a more stabilized receiver system at maximum frequency offset ${\pm}80ppm$ using MDDF unti a correlator of DSSS O-QPSK modulator. Moreover computer simulation results will be presented to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm unde various AWGN and frequency offset environment.
