This study deals with the optimal design of mobile access network connecting base stations(BSs) and mobile switching centers(MSCs). Generally mobile operators constitute their access networks by leasing communication lines. Using the characteristic of leased line rate based on administration region, we build an optimization model for mobile access network design which has much smaller number of variables than the existing researches. And we develop a GUI based optimization tool integrating the well-known softwares such as MS EXCEL. MS VisualBasic, MS PowerPoint and Ip_solve, a freeware optimization software. Employing the current access network configuration of a Korean mobile carrier, this study using the optimization tool obtain an optimal solution for both single MSC access network and nation-wide access network. Each optimal access network achieves 7.45% and 9.49% save of lease rate, respectively. Considering the monthly charge and total amount of lease line rate, our optimization tool provides big amount of save in network operation cost. Besides the graphical representation of access networks makes the operator easily understand and compare current and optimal access networks.

In this paper we study the access network design problem in Universal Mobile Telecommunication Systems (UMTS) networks. Given the location of radio base stations (node-Bs), their traffic demands, and the candidate facility centers for locating radio network controllers (RNCs), the problem is to determine the configuration of access network, including the number and location of facility centers, the number of RNCs in each facility center, and the links between RNCs and node-Bs, with the objective being to design such a network at the minimum cost. We provide a mathematical formulation of the problem with constraints on RNC and node-B capacities, along with a lower bounding method. We develop a heuristic algorithm with two different initial solution methods designed to strengthen the solution quality. The computational efficacy of their procedures is then demonstrated on a number of test problems.

홈 네트워크가 활성화되기 위해서는 보안 서비스의 제공이 필수적이며 특히 사용자에 대한 접근제어는 안전하고 차별화 된 홈 네트워크 서비스의 제공을 가능하게 한다. 그러나 기존의 흠 네트워크 보안 기술은 접근제어를 거의 고려하지 않거나 특정 미들웨어에 종속적인 구조를 가진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 상호 호환성 및 확장성이 뛰어난 차세대 접근제어 표준인 extensible Access Control Markup Language(XACML)를 이용하여 흠 네트워크에서 통합적인 접근제어를 제공하기 위한 방안을 제시하고 이를 바탕으로 XACML 접근제어 시스템을 설계하고 구현한다. 또한 구현된 XACML 접근제어 시스템을 OSGi기반 UPnP 프락시 시스템에 적용하여 다양한 정책에 대한 실험을 수행함으로써 기존 홈 네트워크 시스템과의 호환성을 검증하였다.

There are three main kinds of service standards for 3G(Third-Generation) wireless communication as WCDMA, CDMA2000 and TD-SCDMA(Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access). Compare with WCDMA and CDMA2000, TD-SCDMA system has distinguished technical characters. It is a TDD(Time Division Duplexing) based technology and deploys several advanced but in some respects complex technologies such as smart antenna, joint-detection and baton-handoff, etc. Therefore to analyze and design TD-SCDMA wireless network, it needs more efficient and systematic simulation tool. General simulation tool has so many analysis functions including path loss prediction, capacity and coverage analysis. For more suitable for TD-SCDMA, new additional technologies have to be implemented in simulation tool. Especially as the wireless network highly advancing focused on data service, it more needs to research and develop on the reliability of the simulation tool. In this paper, to give the concrete process and skill about how to implement TD-SCDMA simulation tool, we define the kinds of simulation tool and list basic analysis functions available for TD-SCDMA network design at first. And then we explain how to consider the effects of new technologies of TD-SCDMA and give the solutions about theses considerations.

In this paper, we consider a network optimization problem arising from the deployment of BcN access network. BcN convergence services requires that access networks satisfy QoS meausres. BcN services have two types of traffics : stream traffic and elastic traffic. Stream traffic uses blocking probability as a QoS measure, while elastic traffic uses delay factor as a QoS measure. Incorporating the QoS requirements, we formulate the problem as a nonlinear mixed-integer Programming model. The Proposed model seeks to find a minimum cost dimensioning solution, while satisfying the QoS requirement. We propose two local search heuristic algorithms for solving the problem, and develop a network design system that implements the developed heuristic algorithms. We demonstrate the computational efficacy of the proposed algorithm by solving a realistic network design problem.

In this paper, we deal with an access network design problem of fiber-to-the-home passive optical network (FTTH-PON). The FTTH-PON network design problem seeks to minimize the total cost of optical splitters and cables that provide optical connectivity between central office and subscribers. We develop a flow-based mixed integer programming (MIP) model with nonlinear link cost. By developing valid inequalities and preprocessing rules, we enhance the strength of the proposed MIP model in generating tight lower bounds for the problem. We develop an effective Tabu Search (TS) heuristic algorithm that provides good quality feasible solutions to the problem. Computational results demonstrate that the valid inequalities and preprocessing rules are effective for improving the LP-relaxation lower bound and TS algorithm finds good quality solutions within reasonable time bounds.

광대역 액세스 망에서 합류, 분배 지점에서의 효율을 고려한 광 수동망 설계는 중요하다. 광수동망 구조는 매우 간단하지만, 가입자들에서 발생되는 상향 트래픽 제어를 위해서는 매체 접근 제어 프로토콜이 필요하다. 한편, 사무실 환경을 위한 통신규약은 이미 표준화되어 있다. 광대역 통신망과 다양한 가전 제품의 증가에 의해 홈 네트워크 구성은 자연스러운 일이 되었다. 가정에서 사용하는 네트워크 응용 범위가 넓어짐에 따라 액세스 망과 여러 형태의 트래픽을 발생시키는 홈 네트워크 환경을 고려하였다. Global-FIFO 는 매우 간단하고, 기본적으로 요추-허용 메카니즘의 동적인 상향 대역 할당방식을 사용한다. 이것은 셀을 기본 단위로 한 효율적인 대역을 사용할 수는 있지만, 다양한 형태의 트래픽을 취급하는 홈 네트워크에는 적합하지 않다. 본 논문에서, 우리는 ATM-PON과 홈 네트워크 환경에 적합한 성능을 제어하는 MQ-FIFO라는 새로운 자원할당 MAC 알고리즘을 설계하고 분석한다.
