A Wireless Access for Vehicular Environment (WAVE) system based on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is made for vehicle to vehicle wireless communications. The physical layer standard of the WAVE system is very similar to that of the IEEE802.11a wireless local area network (WLAN). Therefore, the performance of the WAVE system is degraded by continual channel variation in the WAVE multipath fading channels after starting initial channel estimation. In this paper, we research the performance improvement of equalization in 64 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) transmission in WAVE environment. The proposed algorithms use the training sequence and the midamble sequence which is used for fast channel variation such as WAVE environments. Additionally, various interpolation methods are also used for the channel tracking.

In this paper, joint spatial division and reuse (JSDR) scheme is proposed for maximizing network throughput in densely-deployed wireless local area networks equipped with massive antenna array. The proposed JSDR scheme divides the massive spatial space into two subspaces: one is for suppressing the interference from the neighboring access points and another is for sensing the carrier sensing and transmitting the information-bearing signals to intended stations. By using computer simulation, the proposed JSDR can provide 133% higher network throughput, compared to the carrier sensing technique defined in the IEEE 802.11 standard so that the proposed JSDR is suitable for the next generation WLAN systems.

For extending of hot-spot of WLAN, (2) proposes internetworking scheme between wireless LAN (WLAN) and mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), which employ the same layer-2 protocol with different mode. Compared to internetworking schemes between UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems) and WLAN (3-4), the scheme from (2) has relatively low overhead and latencies because WLAN and MANET are physically and logically similar to each other. However, the mode switching algorithm proposed in r2] for internetworking between WLAN and MANET only considers signal strength and determines handoff, and mobile nodes following a zigzag course in pollution area may perform handoff at short intervals. Furthermore, (2) employs mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) at base, which brings still high delay on handoff and overhead due to signal message exchange. In this paper, we present optimized internetworking scheme between WLAN and MANET, modified from (2). To settle ping-pong handoff from (2), we propose adaptive mode switching algorithm. HMIPv6 is employed for IP connectivity and mobility service in WLAN, which solves some shortcomings, such as high handoff overhead and vulnerable security. For routing in MANET, OLSR is employed, which is a proactive Protocol and has optimally reduced signal broadcasting overhead. OLSR operates with current P protocol compatibly with no change or modification. The proposed internetworking scheme based on adaptive mode switching algorithm shows better performance than scheme from (2).

무선 네트워크 환경에서의 미디어 전송은 채널의 패이딩 현상 및 채널 잡음 등으로 인한 다량의 패킷손실과 전송지연의 변동으로 급격한 화질 열화를 발생시킨다. 이러한 채널 변동이 심한 무선 네트워크 환경에서 성공적으로 미디어를 전송하기 위해서 FEC (Forward Error Correction), ARQ (Automatic Repeat reQuest) 및 인터리빙을 사용하여 오류를 복구한다. 하지만 각각의 오류제어 모드는 채널 상황 및 오류 패턴에 따라 효율성이 다르기 때문에, 채널 상황에 적응적으로 변경할 수 있는 기법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 무선채널 변동을 송 수신측의 피드백 정보를 통해 측정하고 이에 따라 유동적으로 가장 적합한 오류제어 모드를 선택하여 패킷손실을 최소화하는 네트워크 적응형 전송오류제어 기법인 NASTE(Network-Adaptive Selective Transport Error control)를 제안한다. 제안된 기법의 성능을 검증하기 위해 IEEE 802.11g 무선랜 환경에서 NASTE 를 구현해서, MPEG-2 미디어 전송할 때 발생하는 패킷오류를 복구함으로써 전체적인 전송률 개선을 검증한다.

This paper presents the design of a high efficiency frequency multiplier with load-pull simulation and analyses the nonlinear distortion of the frequency multiplier. The frequency multiplier shows serious distortion of multiplying signal bandwidth because of nonlinearity when modulated signal is applied, so a digital predistortion with look up table (LUT) is applied to compensate for the distortion of the frequency multiplier. The frequency multiplier is designed to produce 5.8GHz output by doubling the input frequency to be operating at IEEE 802.11a standard wireless LAN. The output spectrum shows 12dB ACPR improvement both at +11MHz, +20MHz offset from center frequency after linearization.

Recent wireless communications using the unlicensed band have been on the rise and the range of use is increasing. The license-exempted band is a prerequisite for accepting interference between telecommunication equipment. In particular, the interference phenomenon of Bluetooth, wireless LAN, and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) using the 2.4 GHz band is getting serious. In such urban areas, the wireless transmission medium may be in a bad state. There are roughly two ways to make effective transmission in this environment. The first is the IEEE 802.11 RTS / CTS method and the second is the frame fragmentation method. In this paper, it is difficult to transmit a frame over a certain size in a jamming environment due to the interference of the wireless environment. In this environment, we implement a frame division transmission scheme that guarantees effective transmission and reliability by dividing a frame into smaller units in order to perform reliability transmission and efficient transmission.

To ensure accurate measurements of wireless network performance, it should be collected real-time data which are transmitted between a large number of nodes in the actual network environment. Therefore, it is necessary to develop simulation tool for finding optimal network system design method such as media access control, routing technique, ad-hoc algorithm of node deployment while overcoming spatial and temporal constraints. Our research attempts to provide an improved architecture and design method of simulation tool for wireless network is an application of multi-threading technique in these issues. We finally show that usability of the proposed simulator by comparing results derived from same test environment in the wireless LAN model of our simulator and widely used network simulation package, NS-2.

The characteristic of the backbond for distribution service in WMNs(Wireless Mesh Networks) is that WMNs has multiple links connected to mesh points and dynamic routing protocol such as AODV to establish routing paths. When the terminal is communicating with the service through new AP, mobile nodes can resume communication by setting only the link between new AP and mobile node in the case of existing WLANs, but WMNs needs path establishment process in multihop networks. Our goal in this paper is to support the seamless communication service by eliminating path establishment delay in WMNs. We present the method that eliminates the handover latency by predicting the location of handover using GPS information and making the paths to their destination in advance. We implement mesh nodes using embedded board that contains proposed handover method and evaluate performance of handover latency. Our experiment shows that handover delay time is decreased from 2.47 to 0.05 seconds and data loss rate is decreased from 20~35% in the existing method to 0~10% level.

Recently, users want to use real-time multimedia services, such as internet, VoIP, etc., using their IEEE 802.11 wireless lan mobile stations. In order to provide such services, a handoff among access points is essential to support the mobility of a node, in such an wide area. However, the legacy handoff methods of IEEE 802.11 technology are easy to lose connections. Also, the recognition of a disconnection and channel re-searching time make the major delay of the next AP to connect. In addition, because IEEE 802.11 decides the selection of an AP depending only on received signal strength, regardless of a node direction, position, etc., it cannot guarantee a stable bandwidth for communication. Therefore, in order to provide a real-time multimedia service, a node must reduce the disconnection time and needs an appropriate algorithm to support a sufficient communication bandwidth. In this paper, we suggest an algorithm which predicts a handoff point of a moving node by using GPS location information, and guarantees a high transmission bandwidth according to the signal strength and the distance. We implemented the suggested algorithm, and confirmed the superiority of our algorithm by reducing around 3.7ms of the layer-2 disconnection time, and guaranteed 24.8% of the communication bandwidth.

Wireless sensor nodes are widely used for various applications such as environmental monitoring. In this paper, the RSSI and PER are measured for the indoor environment with the various interferences such as obstacles(concrete walls, steel doors) and the 2.4GHz wireless LAN interference. Also, the RSSI and PER are measured for the outdoor environments. From the measured values of the RSSI and PER, the guideline for the stable operation of the wireless sensor network is suggested.
