The widespread use of cryptographic technologies is complicated by inconsistencies and duplication in the key management systems supporting their applications. The proliferation of key management systems or protocols also results in higher operational and infrastructure costs, and fails in interoperability. Thus, it is essential to realize key management interoperability between different and heterogeneous cryptosystems. This paper presents a practical and separable key management system for heterogeneous public-key cryptosystems. We achieve the interoperability between different cryptosystems via cryptography approaches rather than communication protocols. With our scheme, each client can freely use any kind of cryptosystemthat it likes. The proposed scheme has two advantages over the key management interoperability protocol introduced by the organization for the advancement of structured information standards. One is that all the related operations do not involve the communication protocol and thus no special restrictions are taken on the client devices. The other is that the proposed scheme does not suffer from single-point fault and bottleneck problems.

Heterogeneous cellular networks can provide high throughput and coverage compare to conventional networks of only macrocell deployment, however it operates regardless of total power consumption, which is a very important issue of modern cellular networks. We propose a policy that control the on/off state of base stations in heterogeneous networks according daily traffic profile. Under this policy, the total power consumed can be significantly reduced when the traffic is low while preserving QoS requirement.

Recent works have validated the possibility of reducing the energy consumption in wireless heterogeneous networks, achieved by switching on/off some base stations (BSs) dynamically. In this paper, to realize energy conservation, the discrete time Markov Decision Process (DTMDP) is developed to match up the BS switching operations with the traffic load variations. Then, an asynchronous decision-making algorithm, which is based on the Bellman equation and the on/off priorities of the BSs, is firstly put forward and proved to be optimal in this paper. Through reducing the state and action space during one decision, the proposed asynchronous algorithm can avoid the "curse of dimensionality" occurred in DTMDP frequently. Finally, numerical simulations are conducted to validate the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed asynchronous on/off strategies.

무전기의 음성통신은 PTT(: Push To Talk)를 이용한 반이중(half-duplex) 방식으로, 송신 시 단일 통화선로를 점유한다. 전화와 무전기간, UHF와 VHF 간의 인터페이스와 같이 서로 다른 이종 장치 간 음성통신을 위해서는 두 장치간의 자동전환장치가 요구되고, 이 장치는 입력 신호로부터 전송해야 할 음성을 검출하는 음성전환장치의 성능에 따라 전송되는 음성신호의 손실여부에 많은 영향을 받는다. 기존방식은 단순 입력신호의 크기 즉, 에너지 레벨을 통해 기준을 정함으로써 잡음에도 반응하는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 본 논문에서는 음성신호처리기법을 이용하여 입력된 신호가 음성임을 판별함으로써, 이종 기기 사이의 음성을 자동으로 전달하는 장치를 구현하였다. 이를 통해 음성 자동전환장치의 성능향상을 확인하였고, 이종 기기 간 음성 손실 없는 전송을 수행할 수 있었다.

산업현장에서 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 이기종 필드 센서 네트워크의 경우 센서간 통신은 CAN 통신 방식을 기반으로 버스형 구조로 설계되어 있다. 이러한 네트워크는 버스형 구조 특성상 거리 벡터 라우팅 프로토콜을 지원하고 있으며, 또한 이기종 네트워크를 지원할 경우 별도의 라우팅 테이블을 두어 변환하는 방식을 지원한다. 하지만 이러한 네트워크는 확장의 제한 및 늦은 전송처리속도 문제로 인해 네트워크 효율성 저하에 원인이 되고 있다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 네트워크의 확장성 및 높은 전송 처리속도를 보장하기 위한 새로운 CAN 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다. 제안하는 라우팅 프로토콜은 RIPv2 기반으로 설계되었으며, 거리 벡터 라우팅 프로토콜의 단점을 보안하기 위해 우선순위 부여 및 부가 기능을 부여할 수 있는 구간을 두는 방식을 지원하도록 설계하였다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방식의 효율성 증가를 검증하기 위해 CAN 통신 기반으로 이기종 필드 센서 네트워크를 구축하여 데이터 전송률을 측정하였다.

The dynamic opportunistic device-to-device (DO-D2D) network will frequently emerge in the fifth generation (5G) wireless communication due to high-density and fast-moving mobile devices. In order to improve the Quality of Experience (QoE) of users with different computing capacity devices in the DO-D2D network, in this paper, we focus on the study of how to reduce the packets retransmission delay and satisfy heterogeneous devices. To select as many devices as possible to transmit simultaneously without interference, the concurrent transmitters-selecting algorithm is firstly put forward. It jointly considers the number of packets successfully received by each device and the device's connectivity. Then, to satisfy different devices' demands while primarily ensuring the base-layer packets successfully received by all the devices, the layer-cooperation instantly decodable network coding is presented, which is used to select transmission packets combination for each transmitter. Simulation results illustrate that there is an appreciable retransmission delay gain especially in the poor channel quality network compared to the traditional base-station (BS) retransmission algorithm. In addition, our proposed algorithms perform well to satisfy the different demands of users with heterogeneous devices.

Cognitive radio technology is still the key technology of future mobile communication systems. Previous studies have focused on improving spectrum utilization and less energy consumption. In this paper, we propose an Overhead Reduced Scheme (ORS) for green cooperative spectrum sensing. Compared to traditional cooperative sensing scheme, ORS scheme divides the sensing time into three time slots and selects the best multi-mode user to report decisions. In consideration of reporting channel deviation, we derive closed-form expressions for detection probability and false alarm probability of ORS scheme based on Rayleigh fading channel. Simulation results show that ORS scheme can improve the perception accuracy while reducing the perceived delay and energy consumption in the process of perception, so as to realize the green communication.

최근에 폭발적으로 증가하고 있는 모바일 데이터 트래픽을 효과적으로 수용하기 위하여 다중 안테나와 소형 셀과 같은 신기술들이 차세대 이동통신 시스템의 핵심 기술로 제안되었다. 특히, 기존의 매크로 셀과 소형 셀을 동시에 활용하여 공간 재사용율을 높일 수 있는 이종 이동통신 네트워크에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 그러나, 이종 네트워크에서는 단말들이 소형 기지국 대비 상대적으로 송신 출력이 높은 매크로 기지국을 통해서 서비스 받을 가능성이 높기 때문에 소형 기지국의 활용도가 상대적으로 낮아지는 문제점이 있으며, 이러한 문제점은 상향 링크에서 두드러지게 나타난다. 3GPP에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 셀 확장 편향치 개념을 제안하고 이에 대한 표준화를 진행하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 셀 확장 편향치를 적용한 네트워크 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 이종 이동 통신 네트워크의 하향 링크 성능을 평균 셀 전송 효율 측면에서 분석한다.

Interference mitigation is a significant issue in the cognitive heterogeneous networks, this paper studied how to reduce the interference to macrocell users (MU) and improve system throughput. Establish the interference model with imperfect spectrum sensing by analyzing the source of interference complexity. Based on the user topology, the optimize problem was built to maximize the downlink throughput under given interference constraint and the total power constraint. We decompose the resource allocation problem into subcarrier allocation and power allocation. In the subcarrier assignment step, the allocated number of subcarriers satisfies the requirement of the femtocell users (FU).Then, we designed the power allocation algorithm based on the Lagrange multiplier method and the improved water filling method. Simulation results and performance analyses show that the proposed algorithm causes less interference to MU than the algorithm without considering imperfect spectrum sensing, and the system achieves better throughput performance.
