Cross-layer design is a concept, which captures the dependencies and interactions and enables information sharing among layers in order to improve the network performance and security. There are two key challenges in wireless networks, lossy features of links and power assumption of network nodes. Cross-layer design of congestion control and power allocation in wireless lossy networks has been studied in the existing literature; however, there has been no contribution proposed in the literature that exploits the path diversity. In this paper, we are motivated to develop a cross-layer design of congestion control and power allocation, which takes into account lossy features of wireless links and transmission powers of network nodes and can be implemented in a distributed manner. Numerical simulation is conducted to illustrate the performance of our proposed algorithm and the comparison with current alternative approaches.

In this paper, we proposed cross-layered approach of video codec and communication system for the efficient video streaming service. Conventional video streaming is served by divided system which consist of video codec layer and communication layer. Its disintegration causes the limitation of the performance of video streaming service. With the cross-layered design, each layer could share the information and the service is able to enhance the performance. And we proposed the selective retransmission method in communication system based on the cross-layered system that reflect the information of encoded video data. Selective retransmission method which consider the characteristics of video data improves the performance of video streaming services. We verified the proposed method with raw format full HD test sequence with H.264/AVC codec and MATLAB simulation. The simulation results show that the proposed method improves about 10% PSNR performance.

본 논문에서는 MANET 환경에서 효율적인 비디오 데이터 전송을 위한 cross-layer 설계 방법을 이용한 CVPT 프로토콜을 제안한다. MANET은 노드의 이동성 때문에 전송 경로가 자주 바뀌고, 또한 경로마다 전송률이 다르기 때문에 비디오 응용 전송과 같이 송신측에서 인코딩시 전송률을 결정하는 응용에서는 낮은 성능을 보인다. 그리고 MANET에서 노드들은 제한된 에너지로 구동되기 때문에 노드의 효율적인 에너지 사용은 네트워크의 연결 지속 시간을 증가시키는데 중요한 역할을 하며, 이는 곧 네트워크의 처리량에 영향을 미친다. 따라서 MANET 환경에서의 효과적인 비디오 응용 전송 방법이 필요하지만 각 계층이 독립적이고 계층적인 특성을 갖는 기존의 OSI 권장 프로토콜을 사용해서는 네트워크 상태에 따라 효과적이고 적응성 있는 전송을 하기가 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 cross-layer 설계 방법을 이용하여 노드의 잔여 에너지량 및 전송 경로의 상태, 그리고 홉의 개수에 따라 최적의 경로를 선택하며 송신단의 인코더에서는 이러한 정보를 이용하여 인코딩 시 효율적인 전송률을 결정하는 방법을 제안한다.

Ultra-wideband(UWB) is a killer technology for short-range wireless communications. In the past, most of the UWB research focused on physical layer but the unique characteristics of UWB make it different to design the upper layer protocols than conventional narrow band systems. Cross-layer protocols have received high attention for UWB networks. In this paper, we investigate the performance of two physical layer schemes: Time Hopping Binary Pulse Position Modulation(TH-BPPM) and Time Hopping Binary Pulse Amplitude Modulation (TH-BPAM) with proposed private MAC protocol for UWB ad-hoc networks. From pulse level to packet level simulation is done in network simulator ns-2 with realistic network environments for varying traffic load, mobility and network density. Our simulation result shows TH-BPAM outperforms TH-BPPM in high traffic load, mobility and dense network cases but in a low traffic load case identical performance is achieved.

We propose load balancing algorithm based on cross layer designing for MIMO OFDM system. When there are many users using data service, base station(BS) should distribute traffic. Moreover, cross layer design gives benefit managing radio resource and network bandwidth management. Proposed cross layer load balancing technique manages both BS's bandwidth allocation and MS’s power control. One BS request bandwidth to other BSes and other BSes reduce each bandwidth. And BSes reduce power of sub carriers for reserving available bandwidth of backhaul. MSes that didn't get service can be served by obtaining bandwidth from other BSes. The simulation result shows more users can be served and cell throughput was increased

본 논문에서는 MANET에서 효율적인 AODV 알고리즘을 제안한다. MANET에서는 전송 채널이 에러와 손실이 높기 때문에 홉 수를 절대적인 네트워크의 메트릭으로 볼 수 없다는 점이다. 제안된 기법은 크로스레이어 디자인을 이용하여 데이터 링크 계층에서 FER을 주기적으로 측정한 후, 각 노드는 링크 상태의 가중치를 AODV 프로토콜의 예약된 필드로 전송하는 방법을 사용하였다. 효과적인 경로 설정을 위해서 가중치의 합을 비교해서 채널 상태가 양호한 링크를 경로 설정에 사용하도록 설계하였다. 제안된 AODV는 기존 AODV 방식에 비하여 throughput, 라우팅 오버헤드 및 평균 전송 지연시간을 향상시킨다.

유비쿼터스 센서 네트워크 기술의 발전과 더불어 모바일 노드들 간의 통신에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 기존 TCP를 MANET에 적용하였을 때, 링크의 단절, 경과의 재설정 및 네트워크 파티션 현상이 TCP로 하여금 혼잡으로 인식하게 한다. 그 결과, TCP는 성능저하를 보인다. 본 논문에서는 크로스레이어 디자인을 이용하여 MANET에 적합한 TCP를 설계하고 ns2로 분석하였다.

Recent studies have indicated that a significant improvement in wireless video throughput can be achieved by Cross Layer Design with Side-information (CLDS) protocols. In this paper, we derive the operational rate of a CLDS protocol operating over a realistic wireless channel. Then, a Rate-Distortion (R-D) empirical model for above-capacity Scalable Video Coding (SVC) is deduced to estimate the loss of video quality incurred under inaccurate rate estimation scenarios. Finally, we develop a novel Unequal Error Protection (UEP) scheme which leverages the characteristics of LDPC codes to reduce the distortion of video quality in case of typically-observed burst wireless errors. The efficacy of the proposed rate adaptation architecture over conventional protocols is demonstrated by realistic video simulations using actual IEEE 802.11b wireless traces.

A design method of double layered electromagnetic wave absorbers with cross-shaped ferrite prominence in the second layer which has broad band frequency characteristics was proposed. The broad band electromagnetic wave absorber can be designed under some approximations by the theoretical model using the equivalent material constants method for the second layer. Based on the developed model broad band electromagnetic wave absorbers with excellent reflectivity frequency characteristics in the frequency range of 30MHz to 3,990MHz were designed.

To increase the overall utility and decrease the link delay and power consumption, a joint optimal cross-layer design of congestion control at the transport layer, link delay at the data link layer and power allocation at the physical layer for mobile ad hoc networks is considered in this paper. As opposed to previous work, the rate outage probability in this work is based on exactly closed-form; therefore, the proposed method can guarantee the globally optimal solutions to the underlying problem. The non-convex formulated problem is transformed into a convex one, which is solved by exploiting the duality technique. Finally, simulation results verify that our proposal achieves considerable benefits over the existing method.
