Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs) have shown a lot of good outcomes in providing a various functions depending on industrial expectations by deploying ad-hoc networking with helps of light loaded and battery powered sensor nodes. In particular, it is strongly requested to develop an algorithm of cross-layer control between 2-layer and 3-layer to deriver the sensing data from the end node to the sink node on time. In this paper, based on the above observation we have proposed an IEEE802.15.4 based self priority routing scheme under UC Berkely TinyOS platform. The proposed beacon based priority routing (BPR) algorithm scheme utilizes beacon periods in sending message with embedding the high priority data and thus provides high quality of service(QoS) in the given criteria. The performance measures are the packet Throughput, delivery, latency, total energy consumption. Simulation results under TinyOS Simulator(TOSSIM) have shown the proposed scheme outcome the conventional Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector(AODV) Routing.

In this paper, we propose the Location Awareness System adjusting Ranging Technology for CSS(Chirp Spread Spectrum) which is adopted on 2.45GHz standard in IEEE 802.15.4a and TOA(Time-of-Arrival) algorithm. The conventional methods have adopted RSSI, ultrasonic waves and infrared rays in Zigbee. RSSI measures strength indication of received signal and recognizes the position of nodes in RF boundary. However, this technology has the following problems; lots of error by the change of the channel environment and much power consumption. In this paper, adopting chirp pulse on 2.45GHz standard in IEEE 802.15.4a and SDS-TWR(Symmetrical Double Side-Two Way Ranging) method using the characteristic of Spread Spectrum, a new Location Awareness System is suggested. The distance and the coordinate are measured within ${\pm}\;5cm$ by TOA(Time of Arrival) algorithm and proposed algorithm and the data in error rate is decreased less than 1%. Through these results, the algorithm suggested in this paper is verified for its performance in a computer simulation.

In wireless networks there are various errors, caused by multi-path fading and interference between devices which lower the network Performance. Especially, performance of IEEE 802.IS.3 High-Rate WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network) which is operated in ISM unlicensed frequency band is easily affected by channel errors. In this paper, we propose a scheduling algorithm which takes channel errors into consideration in scheduling asynchronous data traffic. The proposed scheduling algorithm can allocate CTA(Channel Time Allocation) proportionally in accordance with the requested channel time of each device. It also prevents waste of channel time by allocating CTA of the channel-error devices to other channel-error free devices. After recovering from the channel error, the devices are compensated as much as they conceded during channel error status. Simulation results show that the proposed scheduling algorithm is superior to the existing SRPT(Shortest Remain Processing Time) and RR(Round Robin) in throughput and fairness aspects.

In this paper, a novel ultra wide band(UWB) antenna with tri-band notch capability is proposed. The proposed antenna can reject WiMAX(3.3~3.7 GHz), WLAN IEEE 802.11a/n(5.15~5.825 GHz), and ITU(8.025~8.4 GHz) bands. Band rejection capability is achieved only split ring resonators(SRRs) and complementary SRRs(CSRRs). The SRR under the radiating patch, the CSRR loaded on the radiating patch, and the CSRRs on the ground of the CPW feeding reject the WiMAX, WLAN, and ITU bands, respectively. The simulation and measurement results demonstrate the performances of the proposed antenna.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive beacon scheduling algorithm to control a reception period of actual data according to variation of amount of traffic in IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN(Low Rate-Wireless Personal Area Network) with the cluster-tree topology. If a beacon interval is shortened, the amount of the traffic a node receives can be increased while consumption of the energy can be also increased. In this sense, we can achieve optimal on orgy consumption by controlling the beacon interval when the amount of data to be received is being decreased. The result of simulation using NS-2 shows that the proposed algorithm improves performances in terms of packet loss rate and end-to-end delay compared with algorithm using a fixed beacon interval. For a design of cluster-tree based LR-WPAN managing delay-sensitive services, the proposed algorithm and the associated results can be applied usefully.

On Handoff, existing AP search has chosen one of various APs according to signal strength. However IEEE 802.11 uses Medium Access method with CSMA/CA(Carrier Sensing Multiple Access /Collision Avoidance) that competes to obtain a channel by sharing common medium. For that reason, network performance is heavily affected by the number of nodes and network congestion aside from signal strength. Consequently, in this paper we propose the method that choose one AP which ensures more improved network performance and set up a link, reflecting AP network information in Handoff area, on Handoff in the process of AP selection. We also demonstrate through simulation that it gets maximum performance even in the wireless network which many users concurrently access to, and it has considerable effects on aspects of resources and network management by distribution of users.

In this paper, a compact antenna with band-rejected characteristic for Ultra-Wideband(UWB) applications is proposed. The designed antenna not only shows sufficient impedance bandwidth but has band-rejected characteristic for the frequency band of 5.15~5.825GHz limited by IEEE 802.11a and HIPERLAN/2. To obtain both properties of wideband band rejection, the techniques of a partial ground plane and embedded thin U-slot into planar radiator are used respectively. A designed antenna satisfied a VSWR less than 2:1 for the frequency band of 3.1~10.3GHz with band rejection of 4.90~5.92GHz.

In this paper, a novel Ultra-Wideband(UWB) antenna fed by CPW is designed, fabricated, and measured for UWB communications. We have used the Microwave Studio of CST to simulate the proposed antenna. It is designed to work on a substrate TMM4 of thickness 0.762 mm and relative permittivity 4.5. The proposed antenna is satisfied with Ultra-Wideband communication band from 3.1 GHz to 11.5 GHz, for VSWR$\leq$2, and isolated IEEE 802.1la frequency band(5.15 GHz$\~$5.825 GHz) using a rectangular slot. Measured group delay variation is less than 1 ns, thus indicating the proposed antenna a good candidate for UWB applications.
