A sensor network is composed of a large number of sensor nodes that are densely deployed in a field. Each sensor performs a sensing task for detection specific events. After detecting this event, location information of the sensor node is very important. Range-based scheme of the proposed approaches typically achieve high accuracy on either node-to-node distances or angles, but this scheme have a drawback because all sensor nodes have the special hardware. On the other hand, range-free scheme provides economic advantage because of no needed hardware even if that leads to coarse positioning accuracy. In this paper, we propose a range-free localization algorithm without range information in wireless sensor networks. This is a range-free approach and uses a small number of anchor nodes and known sensor nodes. This paper develops a localization mechanism using the geometry conjecture (perpendicular bisector of a chord). The conjecture states that a perpendicular bisector of a chord passes through the center of the circle.

F-HMIPv6 is protocol that supports fast handovers for Hierarchical Mobile IPv6. Unlike HMIPv6 (Hierarchical Mobile IPv6), it sends FBU(Fast Binding Update) by predicted Router's Information for a potential handover. But, The current version of this protocol doesn't ensure impeccably between mobile node and router. To make up for the weak points of the security, we propose the architecture for F-HMIPv6 protocol to structurally reinforce the security and improve weak security of among mobile node, MAP(Mobility Anchor Point), and routers for binding update when mobile node conducts handovers.

In this paper, we propose a system that can more precisely identify and monitor the position of the tool used in the assembling workplace such as automobile production. The proposed positioning monitoring system is a combination of UWB communication module and MEMS IMU sensor. Since UWB does not need modulation and demodulation function and has low power density, UWB is widely used in indoor positioning field. However, it may cause positioning error due to errors in RF transmission and reception process, which may cause positioning accuracy. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an algorithm that uses IMU as an auxiliary means to compensate for errors that may occur in positioning using only UWB. The tag and anchor of UWB module measure the transmission / reception time by transmitting signals to each other and then estimate the distance between tag and anchor. The MEMS IMU sensor serves to provide positioning calibration information. The tag, which is a mobile node and attached to a moving tool, measures the three-dimensional position of the tool and transfers the coordinate data to the anchor. Thus, it is possible to confirm whether or not the specific tool is properly used according to the prescribed regulations.

이동 서비스를 지원하기 위한 프로토콜 중 현재 가장 주목 받고 있는 Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6)에서 Mobile Node (MN)는 Local Mobility Anchor (LMA)와 Mobile Access Gateway (MAG)의 지원으로 무선 접속을 위한 기능 이외의 추가적인 동작 과정 없이 이동성을 가질 수 있다. PMIPv6 에서의 LMA 는 MN 에게 이동 서비스를 지원함에 있어서 가장 중추적인 역할을 하기 때문에 어떤 LMA 가 MN 에게 서비스를 지원하느냐에 따라 이동 서비스의 질은 직접적인 영향을 받는다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이동 서비스에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 요소인 LMA 와 MAG 사이의 통신 비용과 LMA가 이동 서비스를 제공하고 있는 MN 의 수를 고려하여 Fuzzy Logic 을 이용한 LMA 선택 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 기법은 다수의 LMA 를 제공하는 사업자에게 있어서 적당한 LMA를 선택하여 서비스를 제공할 수 있도록 함으로써 MN 에게 항상 양질의 이동 서비스를 제공할 수 있도록 한다.

Proxy Mobile IPv6(PMIPv6) is a network-based mobility management protocol and it does not require mobile node's involving in mobility management. In PMIPv6, the Mobile Access Gateway (MAG) incurs a high signaling cost to update the location of a mobile node to the remote Local Mobility Anchor (LMA) if it moves frequently. It may cause excessive signaling traffic and increase a high traffic load on LMA. Therefore, we propose a new mobility management scheme in proxy mobile IPv6 networks with dynamic paging support. To minimize signaling overhead, in our proposal, the size of the paging area is determined dynamically according the changes of mobility and traffic patterns of the mobile node. An analytic model is applied to determine the optimal size of the paging area. The cost analysis using fluid flow model presented in this paper shows that our proposal can achieve performance superior that of PMIPv6 scheme.

Wireless Sensor Network is composed of a lot of sensor nodes that are densely deployed in a field. So generally this sensor nodes are spreaded using Helicopter or Fixed wing. Each node delivers own location and acquired information to user when it detects specific events. In this paper, we propose localization algorithm without range information in wireless sensor network using helicopter. Helicopter broadcasts periodically beacon signal for sensor nodes. Sensor nodes stored own memory this beacon signal until to find another beacon point(satisfied special condition). This paper develops a localization mechanism using the geometry conjecture(perpendicular bisector of a chord) to know own location. And the simulation results demonstrate that our localization scheme outperforms Centroid, APIT in terms of a higher location accuracy.

The sensor network that is component of the Internet of Things require a lot of research to select the best route to send information to the anchor node, to collect a number of environment and cost efficient for communication between the sensor life. On the sensor network in one of the components of IOT's environment, sensor nodes are an extension device with low power low capacity. For routing method for data transmission between the sensor nodes, the connection between the anchor and the node must be accurate with in adjacent areas relatively. Localization CA (Centroid Algorithm) is often used although an error frequently occurs. In this paper, we propose a range-free localization method between sensor nodes based on the Radical Line in order to solve this problem.

Proxy Mobile IPv6(PMIPv6) is that network-based mobility management protocol that network supports mobile node's mobility on behalf of the Mobile Node(MN). In PMIPv6 network, data packets from a Correspondent Node(CN) to a MN will always traverse the MN's Local Mobility Anchor(LMA). Even though, CN and MN might be located close to each other or within the same PMIPv6 domain. To solve this problem, several PMIPv6 Route Optimization(RO) schemes have been proposed. However, these RO schemes may result in a high signaling cost when MN moves frequently between MAGs. For this reason, we propose an adaptive route optimization(ARO) scheme. We analyze the performance of the ARO. Analytical results indicate that the ARO outperforms previous schemes in terms of signaling overhead.

In HMIPv6, the nested mobile network because of the mobility of node and router can be constituted. Many subnets exist and many mobile router(MR)s and mobile node(MN)s activate in the nested mobile network. If the nested depth is deeper, the number of mobile router that packet goes through, increases and data transmission delay owing to this might be larger. This paper proposes EPA algorithm which finds out the path from Mobility Anchor Point(MAP) to a destination mobile node using the binding cache information of MAP and processes the path information by adding it to packet header. If we apply EAP algorithm, the quantity of unnecessary packet within MAP domain can be decreased. Also, the transmission delay can be decreased in a intermediate mobile router because it supports packet re-transmission just by simple packet substitution.

Location information of individual nodes is useful for routing and some other functions in wireless sensor networks. Each node can use GPS to know its position. However, the GPS service can not be practical to use due to cost efficiency, power, and computing capability. This paper proposes the localization method to make nodes know their location in case of a few nodes knows their position information. The proposed method is named as VALT (Virtual Anchor based Localization using Triangulation method). It uses the virtual anchor concept and calculates the location of individual nodes by means of the triangulation method. This method helps all nodes to determine their position with low cost and high scalability.
