In this paper, a modified PCF (Point Coordination Function) MAC (Medium Access Control) Protocol is proposed to support the multiple direct link communication between STAs (STAtions) in infrastructure mode IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs. By the proposed MAC protocol, the direct link communication between STAs, which are located within the communication range of each other, is allowed without the use of AP (Access Point) as a relay. Moreover, when multiple direct data communication between STAs can be simultaneously performed with a sufficiently small interference, multiple simultaneous direct link communication is allowed for the efficient use of radio bandwidth. AP polls STAs to grant the transmission opportunities using the direct link communication by transmitting the polling frames to STAs. An efficient polling method for granting the transmission opportunities to STAs is proposed to reduce the number of the polling frame transmissions and enhance the PCF MAC performance.

This paper reports an expert system for coordination of protective relays in the high voltage transmission system. The proposed system consists of five modules and has adopted the frame and production rule representations achieving the efficient data storage and knowledgebases. It has an interface to the fault program PSS/E and has reduced the data retrival time by implementing the local database containg only the minimum information for the process. Different relay parameters and output formats of the setting results can be easily incorporated owing to the rule-based structure. Graphics-based output helps understanding of the process and enhances the practical power.

Ethernet is being deployed in metropolitan area networks (MANs) as a lower-cost alternative to SONET-based infrastructures. MANs are usually required to support common communication services, such as voice and frame relay, based on legacy synchronous TDM technology in addition to asynchronous packet data transport. This paper addresses the clock synchronization problem that arises when transporting synchronous services over an asynchronous packet infrastructure, such as Ethernet. A novel algorithm for clock synchronization is presented combining time-stamp methods used in the network time protocol (NTP) with signal processing techniques applied to measured packet interarrival times. The algorithm achieves the frequency accuracy, stability, low drift, holdover performance, and rapid convergence required for viable emulation of TDM circuit services over Ethernet.

현재 방송중계용으로 쓰이는 주파수대는 3~30GHz의 M/W 대역이다. 그러나 갈수록 늘어나는 서비스와 전송용량의 증대로 인해 주파수 부족현상이 일어나는 추세이다. 이에 대안 방안으로 주파수 재배치에 관하여 대두가 되고 있다. 이동방송 중계용 링크인 FPU 링크는 차후 다른 주파수 대역으로 이전시 이러한 링크에서 사용되었던 시스템 제원을 토대로 필요한 대역에 대한 다양한 변조방식으로 먼저 시뮬레이션 평가 후 이용채널 개수 및 이전 가능 여부 둥과 같은 조치가 수행되어져야 한다. 본 논문에서는 M/W대역의 주파수를 이용한 서비스 중의 하나인 이동전송용 중계방송시스템인 FPU(Field Pick Up)시스템을 구현하고 무선채널에서 영상을 전송하였을 때의 성능을 PSNR, BER의 특성을 통하여 평가하였다. 전송되는 데이터는 실제 동영상(320$\times$240 61frame)을 동영상 압축방식 중 하나인 MPEG을 이용하여 압축하고, 압축된 영상 정보를 무선 채널상에 전송하였을 때 복원된 영상을 분석하였다.

IEEE 802.16 standard(WiMAX) is one of 3.5G/4G wireless technologies and there are many systems based on the standard. Each frame of the systems begins with a preamble for synchronization and channel estimation, etc. IEEE 802.16 standard defines a total of 114 preamble sequences. By the way there are some systems(such as mobile multi-hop relay) that require using more than 114 preamble sequences. So we define 114 additional preamble sequences in this paper. And we evaluate PAPR and cross-correlation performance of them to decide to be usable as a preamble.

In this paper, we propose a method in which the negative acknowledge (NACK) message is used as command for cooperation and spectrum sharing. This allows for an automatic request for cooperation and sharing when the direct link of the primary user is in outage, and also allows for saving the number of control messages in cooperation-spectrum sharing based paradigm. In the sharing phase, the selected relay shares a power fraction of $1-{\alpha}$ for secondary transmitted signal while the remaining of ${\alpha}$ is for primary retransmitted signal. In the case of no relay collected, primary transmitter uses NACK as a command to retransmit the signal with fully power fraction (${\alpha}=1$). Both systems are assumed to employ BPSK signals. In this scheme, we propose the joint optimal decoding in the secondary user. The frame error rate (FER) performance at both systems is then analyzed. The theoretical and simulation results validate the analysis and confirm the efficiency of the protocol.

In this paper, a multi-hop relaying transmission scheme is analyzed regarding its feasibility and potentiality in the IEEE 802.22-based cognitive radio (CR) environment. Shortly, basic design issues are addressed such as relay station (RS) deployment and a frame structure of physical channel to escape inter-hop interference. This paper mainly develops a radio resource management scheme based on spectrum sensing results aggregated from CR secondary nodes and improves the opportunistic spectrum sharing efficiency. In particular, a decision rule about a channel availability is made using a distributed sensing method. Subsequently, spectrum allocation and routing path decision procedures are proposed to establish a link from source to destination with a hop-by-hop manner. Simulation results show that the proposed multi-hop relaying scheme is substantially profitable in CR environments if the number of hops and RS deployment are designed in such a way that the spectrum sharing gain is larger than spectrum division loss which is inherently induced in multi-hop relaying systems.

To minimize energy consumption, most of MAC Protocols in WSNs exploit low duty cycling. Among those, RMAC [4] allows a node to transmit a data packet for multiple hops in a single duty cycle, which is made possible by exploiting a control frame named Pioneer (PION) in setting up the path. In this paper, we present a MAC Protocol called Hop Extended MAC (HE-MAC) that transmits the data packet for more multiple hops in a single duty cycle. It employs an EXP (Explorer) frame to set up the multiple hop transmission, which contains the information of the maximum hop that a packet can be transmitted. With the use of the information in EXP and an internal state of Ready to Receive (RTR), HEMAC extends the relay of the packet beyond the termination of the data period by two more hops compared to RMAC. Along with our proposed adaptive sleeping method, it also reduces power consumption and handles heavy traffic efficiently without experiencing packet inversion observed in RMAC. We analytically obtain the packet delivery latency in HE-MAC and evaluate the performance through ns-2 simulations. Compared to RMAC, HE-MAC achieves 14% less power consumption and 20% less packet delay on average for a random topology of 300 nodes.

This paper deals with an optimal capacity allocation problem and performance analysis in Advanced Information Communication Processing System(AICPS). AICPS is a gateway system interconnection PSTN(Public Switched Telephone Network), ISDN(Intergrated Services Digital Network), PSDN(Packet Switched Data Network), internet, Frame Relay and ATM together. This study considers not only ISDN and Internet but also user behavior of On-line service which is analyzed by Markov process. A call blocking probability of TNAS and INAS is computed by Erlang's formula. Then, PNAS and WNAS's call blocking probability are computed by Stochastic knapsack modeling. The result is compared with result of simulation. Finally, we allocate an optimal capacity minimizing total call blocking probability.
