The WBAN technology means a short distance wireless network which provides each device interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. Wireless body area network is usually configured in energy efficient using sensor and zigbee device due to the power limitation and the characteristics of human body. Wireless sensor network consist of sensor field and sink node. Sensor field are composed a lot of sensor node and sink node collect sensing data. Wireless sensor network has capacity of the self constitution by protocol where placed in large area without fixed position. In this paper, we proposed the efficient addressing scheme for improving the performance of routing algorithm by using ZigBee in WBAN environment. A distributed address allocation scheme used an existing algorithm that has wasted in address space. Therefore proposing x, y and z coordinate axes from divided address space of 16 bit to solve this problems. Each node was reduced not only bitwise but also multi hop using the coordinate axes while routing than Cskip algorithm. I compared the performance between the standard and the proposed mechanism through the numerical analysis. Simulation verified performance about decrease averaging multi hop count that compare proposing algorithm and another. The numerical analysis results show that proposed algorithm reduced the multi hop better than ZigBee distributed address assignment

Most of ubiquitous computing devices such as stereo camera, ultrasonic sensor based MIT cricket system and other wireless sensor network devices are widely applied to the 2 Dimensional(2D) localization system in today. Because stereo camera cannot estimate the optimal location between moving node and beacon node in Wireless Personal Area Network(WPAN) under Non Line Of Sight(NLOS) environment, it is a great weakness point to the design of the 2D localization system in indoor environment. But the conventional 2D triangulation scheme that is adapted to the MIT cricket system cannot estimate the 3 Dimensional(3D) coordinate values for estimation of the optimal location of the moving node generally. Therefore, the 3D triangulation scheme based on the space segmentation in WPAN is suggested in this paper. The measuring data in the suggested scheme by computer simulation is compared with that of the geographic measuring data in the AutoCAD software system. The average error of coordinates values(x,y,z) of the moving node is calculated to 0.008m by the suggested scheme. From the results, it can be seen that the location correctness of the suggested scheme is very excellent for using the localization system in WPAN.

This paper presents an ultra wideband(UWB) direct conversion mixer for IEEE 802.15.3a applications with simulation and measurement results. Since the direct conversion mixing causes dc-offset and even-order distortion, the proposed mixer adopts an anti-parallel diode pairs(APDPs) to solve these problems. The proposed mixer consists of an in-phase wilkinson power divider over $3.1{\sim}4.8GHz$, a wideband $45^{\circ}$ power divider over $1.5{\sim}2.4GHz$, and miniatured band pass filters(BPFs) for RF-LO isolations. The conversion loss is optimized with impedance matchings between APDPs and wideband components. The measured mixer shows the conversion loss of 13.5 dB, input third-order intercept-point($IIP_3$) of 7 dBm, and 1-dB gam compression point($P_{1dB}$) of -4 dBm. Quadrature(I/Q) outputs have the magnitude difference of about 1 dB and phase difference of ${\pm}3^{\circ}$.

The high-rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs) which IEEE 802.15.3 standard support, foster the Digital Home Network (DHN) scenarios with high rate multimedia data transmission. Actually, there are a few routing protocols for ad-hoc networks which considered the terminal location information and routing metric to reduce the energy consumption and optimize the routing path in mobile system. Based on other routing protocols, this paper presents the reliable location-based routing algorithm which is an adaptation to these networks.

This paper presents an analysis of resource assignment for multihop communications in millimeter-wave (mm-wave) wireless personal area networks. The purpose of this paper is to figure out the effect of using directional antennas and relaying devices (DEVs) in communications. The analysis is performed based on a grouping algorithm, categorization of the flows, and the relaying DEV selection policy. Three schemes are compared: direct and relaying concurrent transmission (DRCT), direct concurrent transmission (DCT), and direct nonconcurrent transmission (DNCT). Numerical results show that DRCT is better than DCT and DCT is better than DNCT for any antenna beamwidths under the proposed algorithm and policy. The results also show that using relaying DEVs increases the throughput up to 30% and that there is an optimal beamwidth that maximizes spatial reuse and depends on parameters such as the number of flows in the networks. This analysis can provide guidelines for improving the performance of mm-wave band communications with relaying DEVs.

In this paper, the performances of a single-user DS-UWB system applying two simple proposed channel estimation schemes are introduced, according to the newly updated DS-UWB PHY Layer standard from IEEE P802.15.3a. The performances of error control coding, different combining schemes in selective Rake receiver for DS-UWB system are analyzed. Both of the two channel estimation schemes using data-independent structure work well in DS-UWB system with few pilot bits. For the purpose of channel estimation and reduces the number of pilot bits, we apply a pilot symbol spreaded with $2{^8}-1\;or\;2{^9}-1$ periods of m-sequence for different channel estimation schemes.

본 고에서는 현재 IEEE 802.15.7 TG VLC에서 본격적으로 논의되고 있는 가시광 무선통신의 응용 서비스 모델 중에서 LED(Light Emitting Diode) 조명과 통신이 융합된 응용 서비스 모델을 중심으로 알아본다. LED를 이용한 통신 기술은 광 케이블을 이용한 유선 광통신에서 이미 시작된 기술이나 LD를 이용하여 더 우수한 성능을 보이면서 잊혀져가던 기술중하나이다. 이러한 광통신 기술은 LED의 성능이 급격하게 증가하면서 다시금 주목을 받게 되었고, 특히 LED를 이용한 조명기술이 발전하면서 무선통신으로 다시금 주목받고 있는 기술이다. 실내 환경에서 LED 조명 고유의 기능을 그대로 유지하면서 무선통신을 가능하게 하고, 항공기 혹은 병원내에서와 같이 기존의 RF무선통신에 제약을 받는 환경에서도 무선통신이 가능하게 하며, 실내 LED 조명을 이용함으로써 국부지역에 특정 서비스 제공이 가능해 졌다. 따라서 가시광 무선통신은 조명산업과의 융합을 통해 통신뿐만 아니라 기존의 조명과 디스플레이 분야에서 새로운 가치를 창출 할 수 있는 그린 IT융합 기술이다. 본 고에서는 LED조명의 등장배경, 위치 정보 제공 서비스, 국부 방송 서비스, 항공기내 무선통신 서비스 등 LED 조명 기술과 통신기술이 융합된 가시광 무선통신의 응용 서비스 모델에 대하여 설명한다.
