The number of industry wireless networks based on IEEE 802.11 WLAN technology deployed in large outdoor work sites, such as freight container terminal, is increasing these days. Wider service coverage, frequent movements of stations and high requirement on service reliability are main characteristics of these networks compared to the conventional IEEE 802.11 networks used in home, office and school. While the importance of these networks Bets higher, we can hardly find previous studies including concrete analysis on these networks based on actual experiments. We carried out several field experiments at a freight container terminal to analyze its IEEE 802.11 network and found out some problematic situations, such as over 50% retransmission rates and frequent disruption of communication link while a station is moving. We explain why these problematic situations happen and suggest some solutions, such as application of mesh technology, smart handoff based on location and movement pattern and adjustment of signal strength and channel allocation. Methods and tools used in the experiments are also detailed in the paper which may be helpful for similar future studies.

Wireless LAN (WLAN) is type of wireless service that has higher data transmission than current cellular networks. The usage is continually increasing. There are a lot of vulnerabilities in wireless network, due to the properties of the wireless environment, regardless of its popularity. IEEE announced the 802.11i security standard to solve these problems. The vulnerable point of messages used in the process of key distribution for 802.11i makes the target node attacked lose memory through continuous messages and blocks the legitimate WLAN service. In this paper, we proposed new schemes to solve this problem and compared our proposals with the current process. The proposed protocol eliminates the memory exhaustion problem on the client side by using methods for reduction of memory usage.

무선랜을 사용한 비밀통신은 공격에 노출되기 쉽기 때문에 반드시 보안 환경이 필요하다. 보안을 위한 방법으로 IEEE 802.11 에서 제시하는 WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)가 사용된다. 구현이 쉽고 연산 속도가 빠르기 때문이다. 하지만 현재 WEP 를 기반으로 보호된 네트워크는 공격자에게 언제나 노출되어 있다. 이 논문에서는 WEP 의 문제점을 분석하고 이를 이용한 공격 기법을 제안하고 일반적인 환경에서 WEP 의 유효성을 실험을 통해 밝힌다.

무선 LAN(Wireless Local Area Networks 의 DCF(Distributed Coordination Function) 방식은 랜덤 백 오프 방식으로 매체에 접근하기 때문에 지연이 발생하여 정해진 시간 내에 전송을 보장할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. [1] 이는 곧 실시간 멀티미디어 트래픽(비디오, 음성 등)의 QoS(Quality Of Service)를 보장할 수 없다는 것을 뜻한다. 또한 IEEF 802.11e 표준 [2]에서 제공하는 QoS 를 위한 EDCA(Enhanced Distributed Channel Access)라는 프로토콜은 제시되어있으나 실제로 구현되어있는 디바이스의 부재로 QoS 를 지원하기가 어렵다. 따라서 무선 랜에서 IEEE 802.11e 를 지원하지 않는 망내 디바이스, 즉 큐가 1 개인 STA, 즉 기본적인 802.11 표준 기술인 DCF 를 사용하는 STA 을 위해서 멀티미디어 트래픽의 실시간 전송을 보장하기 위한 기법을 제시한다.

Signals transmitted from access point (AP) or stations in different wireless LANs (WLAN) interfere each other when the WLANs are closely installed. When they are configured to use the same channel, signals from an WLAN get collided with signals from other WLANs so that the delay increases to user stations and the throughput decreases. In this paper, we propose a method in which an AP in a basic service set (BSS) detects other BSSs using the same channel and switches to a different channel not being occupied by any other BSS. We can avoid using the same channel with other BSS in spacially overlapped BSS environment. The proposed scheme is simulated and its characteristics are described with the analysis of the result. The results measured in terms of throughput show that the problems in overlapped wireless LANs can be resolved with the proposed method.

IEEE 802.11e proposed by IEEE 802.11 working group to guarantee QoS has contention based EDCA and contention free based HCCA. HCCA, a centralized polling based mechanism of 802.11e, needs a scheduling algorithm to allocate the network resource efficiently. The existing standard scheduler, however, is inefficient to support for QoS guarantee for real-time service having VBR traffic. To efficiently assign resource for VBR traffic, in this paper, we propose TXOP algorithm based on dual leaky bucket using average resource allocation and peak resource allocation. The minimum TXOP of each station is obtained by using statistical approach to maximize number of stations of which performance satisfy QoS target. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has much higher performance compared with reference scheduler in terms of throughput and delay.

IEEE 802.11e proposed by IEEE 802.11 working group to guarantee QoS has contention based EDCA and contention free based HCCA. HCCA, a centralized polling based mechanism of 802.11e, needs a scheduling algorithm to allocate the network resource efficiently. The existing standard scheduler, however, is inefficient to support for QoS guarantee for real-time service having VBR traffic. To improve these limit, in this paper, we First, we propose priority polling algorithm which additionally considers the size of MSI and TXOP based on EDD algorithm to increase number of QSTAs. We also propose a dual token bucket TXOP allocation algorithm to reduce congestion caused by stations which enters network with considerable delay variance. TSPEC parameters, Maximum Burst Size (MBS) and Peak Data Rate (PR), are applied to design depth and token generation rate of two buckets. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has much higher performance compared with reference and SETT-EDD scheduler in terms of throughput and delay.

IEEE 802.11n standard has introduced the new schemes in MAC and PHY layers to improve network throughput. Frame aggregation and Block ACK are mainly defined to increase the efficiency of the MAC layer. There exists still problem in IEEE 802.11n. When block ACK request and/or response frames are missing or received in error, the sender does not know the status (success/failure) of each frame in the aggregated large frame and retransmits all the frames. This can cause a lower network performance. To solve this problem, we propose a new effective scheme, called reduced retransmission of MPDUs (RRM) scheme. In the proposed scheme, when a sender does not receive a block ACK response frame, it just transmits a next data frame and requests a block ACK. Therefore, it can retransmits the erroneous frames. Performance of the proposed scheme is investigated by simulation. Our results show that the proposed scheme is very effective and improves the performance under a wide range of channel error conditions.
