In VANET(Vheicle Ad hoc Network), the researches based on the wireless LAN are conducting and the method based on 802.11a is being adapted in IEEE 802.11p WAVE(Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments). However, wireless LAN which uses a single channel in a competition can cause transmission delays because of a frequent collision and a use of CSMA/CA to avoid competition in VANET requiring a fast access. In this paper, we designed CMMP (Clustering based Multi-channel MAC protocol) adequate to VANET and then confirmed the appropriate channel conditions in a V2V communication on the basis of this protocol. The simulation results showed that a packet collision and a transmission delay by the use of an existing single channel based on the contention decreased more than 60% by CMMP.

Community network is a communication environment where heterogeneous devices can access and communicate with each other at any time and at any space to share information. To do so, mobile devices are required to be self-configured even in absence of communication infrastructures. Semi-infrastructured wireless ad-hoc network is a promising solution to meet with such a requirement. This paper proposes the VTC(virtual topology coordinator) system as an evaluation tool for examining network protocols that are intended to be deployed in the semi-infrastructured ad-hoc networks. VTC emulates multi-hops wireless network topology virtually using a mechanism of selective receiving MAC frame in a small area, where only a single hop communication is available. VTC system cannot consider all properties introduced in real wireless network, but do more wireless properties than verification through simulation.

최근 무선 통신 기술과 전자 기술의 진보로 지능형 센서(Smart Sensor)를 이용한 무선 센서 네트워크 구축이 가능해졌고, 이러한 센서 네트워크는 최근 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅과 Ad-Hoc 네트워크에서 많이 연구되고 있는 새로운 이슈이다. 최근 센서관련 논문에서는 각 센서 노드의 제한된 에너지를 효율적으로 사용하기 위해 데이터 전송이 없을 경우 노드의 통신 모듈을 Sleep 시킴으로써 에너지를 절약 한다. 이를 위해서 모든 센서 노드들은 동기화를 맞추어 listen과 sleep를 주기적으로 반복해야 한다. 이러한 프로토콜들에서 발생하는 가장 큰 문제는 에너지 효율성과 데이터 전송 지연간의 반비례 관계이다. 에너지의 효율성을 위해 Sleep 시간을 길게 할수록, Sleep 시간에서 발생한 데이터의 지연 시간도 길어지게 되므로, 데이터의 지연을 고려하여 sleep 시간을 적당히 조정해야 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 에너지 효율성을 위해 listen/sleep 주기를 사용하면서도 데이터 지연을 최소화 할 수 있는 효율적 sleep 시간에 대해 논의 해 보려 한다.

본 논문에서는 Ad-hoc 네트워크에서 패킷 flooding에 의해 발생하게 되는 broadcast storm problem [1]을 해결하기 위한 크로스 레이어 기반의 flooding 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 flooding 기법은 크로스 레이어 프로토콜을 기반으로 하여 물리계층과 MAC (Medium Access Control) 계층에서 이웃 노드들에 대한 정보를 수집하고, 이를 이용하여 효율적인 재전송 노드의 수를 결정한다. 모의 실험을 통한 성능평가에서는 전체 네트워크 노드에 대한 수신 비율이 simple flooding 에 근접하며, 전송 비율 및 평균중복패킷 수에서도 좋은 성능을 보임으로서 broadcast storm problem을 해결할 수 있다.

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) based on low-power technologies become important portion of ubiquitous systems. In this paper, we introduce a WSN-based welfare management system as one of the WSN applications. Especially, we implement S-MAC (Sensor Medium Access control) protocol on our system that saves both cost and power consumption, and we evaluate system performances using the TOSSIM simulator. Sensors and a small database server are placed in the house of participant, which collects and stores some environment conditions of the house. The small servers are connected to each others by wireless ad-hoc network.

IEEE 802.15.3 High Rate WPAN is a mechanism for wireless home network such as PDAs, digital video camcoder, etc. While symmetric keys are used for MAC layer security, the process of establishing a secure membership or a secure relationship is outside of the scope of the standard. In addition, to prepare for ubiquitous environment in the near future, it is important to study the process of establishing a secure relationship between DEVs in different dependent piconets. This paper propose a secure model and a process of establishing a secure relationship using PKI without a ousted certificate authority.

In this paper, we propose a modeling of the broadcasting in the IEEE 802.11p MAC protocol for the VANET(Vehicular Ad hoc Networks). Due to the fact that the beacon message which is needed for the safety services is shared via broadcasting, the analytical modeling of the broadcasting is crucial for the optimum design of the services. Two characteristics specific to the IEEE 802.11p are reflected in the modeling; the time limited CCH interval caused by the channel switching between the CCH and SCH, and no retransmission of the broadcasted messages. In the proposal, we assumed no restriction on the moment of generation of the beacon messages. We allow the messages to be generated and broadcasted within the whole CCH interval. Simulation results prove the accuracy of the proposed modeling. Noticeable improvements are also observed in terms of the performance indices such as the successful delivery ratio, transmission delay, and the variation of the delay.

In mobile ad hoc networks, most of on demand routing protocols such as DSR and AODV do not deal with traffic load during the route discovery procedure. To solve the congestion and achieve load balancing, many protocols have been proposed. However, the existing load balancing schemes has only considered avoiding the congested route in the route discovery procedure or finding an alternative route path during a communication session. To mitigate this problem, we have proposed a new scheme which considers the packet bursting mechanism in congested nodes. The proposed packet bursting scheme, which is originally introduced in IEEE 802.11e QoS specification, is to transmit multiple packets right after channel acquisition. Thus, congested nodes can forward buffered packets promptly and minimize bottleneck situation. Each node begins to transmit packets in normal mode whenever its congested status is dissolved. We also propose two threshold values to define exact overloaded status adaptively; one is interface queue length and the other is buffer occupancy time. Through an experimental simulation study, we have compared and contrasted our protocol with normal on demand routing protocols and showed that the proposed scheme is more efficient and effective especially when network traffic is heavily loaded.

VANET are a special kind of MANET adapted to the communications between vehicles. In this work, we propose the models used for representing the communication among vehicles, vehicles mobility features, and VANET simulator using realistic vehicular mobility models. VANET requires that a traffic and network simulator should be used together to perform this test. But, simulator tool has been preferred over traffic simulation because it simple, easy and cheap. Goal of this paper is to create a simulation of Vehicular Ad-Hoc network for urban scenario which can be used for testing purposes. Such environment can be used while designing better MAC protocols in VANETs. We are evaluating the performance of two routing protocols namely AODV and DSDV. The comparison was based on the throughout, packet loss and end-to-end delay. We found that DSDV has less throughput performance and high routing overhead than AODV. On average end-to-end delay and packet loss, AODV performs better than DSDV.

Recently, many countries have been developing new protocols to improve the performance of tactical ad hoc networks for implementing NCW (Network Centric Warfare). Combat net radio (CNR) networks are the most important communication infra for the ground forces such as infantry of Army. U.S. Army had developed MIL-STD-188-220D that is the Interoperability Standard for DMTDs (Digital Messages Transfer Device Subsystems) for voice and data communication in CNR. MIL-STD-188-220D is a candidate for MAC protocol of TMMR which is next radio and has a few constraints to used in TMMR. NAD (Network Access Delay) defined in MIL-STD-188-220D needs time synchronization to avoid collision. However, it is difficult for time synchronization to fit in multi-hop environment. We suggest the enhanced DAP (Deterministic Adaptable Priority)-NAD to prevent conflicts and decrease delays in multi-hop CNR. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme improves the performance in multi-hop CNR networks.
