Handover in IEEE 802.11 requires repeated authentication and key exchange procedures, which are an obstacle to seamless services of wireless LAM. We propose a fast authentication and key exchange mechanism using IEEE 802.11f. Especially, by proposing a modified version of the 4-way handshake of IEEE 802.11i, we solve the perfect forward secrecy problem that arises when the pre-authentication is adopted. The scheme can be implemented only using the Context Block of IEEE 802.11f and the 4-way handshake of IEEE 802.11i without involving authentications server's interaction or non-standard behavior between access points. Our scheme is applicable to devices not supporting the us-authentication of IEEE 802.11i and also, it can substitute the pre-authentication when the pre-authentication is failed.

IEEE 802.15.3 HR-WPAN is designed to enable wireless connectivity of high-speed, low-power, low-cost multimedia-capable portable consumer electronic devices. For quality of service, the standard specifies the use of TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access). However, during low contention TDMA gives much lower channel utilization and higher delays than CSMA (Carrier Sensing Multiple Access) because in TDMA, a node can transmit only during its scheduled time slots whereas in CSMA, nodes can transmit at any time as long as there is no contention. By mixing CSMA and TDMA, Hybrid MAC becomes more robust to timing failures, time-varying channel conditions, slot assignment failures and topology changes than a stand-alone TDMA.

Interoperation between heterogeneous simulators employs definition of standard protocols for data exchange and time synchronization among simulators. The High Level Architecture(HLA) is a specification of common services for such interoperation, which is approved as IEEE standard 1516. This paper presents the design and implementation of an interoperable adaptor which supports development of interoperable simulators under the IEEE 1516 HLA/RTI environment. The adaptor, KHLAAdaptor1516, is implemented as a library form which is linked to HLA-compliant simulators. Design of the adaptor employs a protocol conversion method, the model of which is finite state machine. KHLAAdaptor1516 allows developers to separate interoperable adaptors from stand-alone simulators. The interoperable adaptor manages mapping between HLA services and simulation messages for simulator, This separation increases robustness of a federation and reusability of simulators as well as alleviates much effort and time for maintenance.

Currently, the IETF group is working on service differentiation in the Internet. However, in wireless environments such as Ad-hoc networks, where channel conditions are variable and bandwidth is scarce, the Internet differentiated services are suboptimal without lower layers' support. The IEEE 802.11 standard for Wireless LANs is the most widely used WLAN standard today. 1t has a mode of operation that can be used to provide service differentiation, but it has been shown to perform badly. In this paper, we present a new service differentiation scheme for support QoS in the wireless IEEE 802.11, which is based on a multiple queuing system to provide priority of user's flow. We simulate and analyze the performance of our algorithm and compare its performance with the original IEEE 802.11b protocol. Simulation results show that our approach increases overall throughput in the MAC layer.

In IEEE 802.15.4 beacon-enabled mode, performance decreases as the number of devices competing in the contention access period(CAP) increases. In this letter, we propose partitioned contention access mechanism(PCAM) to compensate performance degradation. In PCAM, the PAN coordinator divides CAP into two sub-periods and activity of devices is delimited in their assigned sub-periods. Since PCAM reduces the number of devices which compete at the same time by half, collision probability between transmitted frames can be reduced. In addition, devices can save their power consumption because PCAM shorten the duration that devices stay in active state into half. We perform simulations to compare the performance of PCAM with that of the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. From the result, PCAM yields better performance than IEEE 802.15.4 standard.

IEEE1394 standard supports both isochronous and asynchronous data transmission, thus enabling high-speed data exchange between PC and networked home electronic devices. This paper describes an implementation of Test Bed for Linux based IEEE1394 communication test. In this paper, An integrated Software was developed to test IEEE1394 communication environment. To develop the software, open source software(gscanbus,dvgrab, playdv, Xine, Kino) for the Linux environment was investigated and integrated. It was tested such as the communication among the devices, asynchronous date transmission, isochronous data transmission, and its result was successful. This integrated software has the potential to become efficient test tool for the futher development of networked home electronic devices and multimedia services.

Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) are becoming increasingly important to solve the issue of health care. IEEE 802.15.6 is a wireless communication standard for WBANs, aiming to provide a real-time and continuous monitoring. In this paper, we present our development of a modified Markov Chain model and a backoff model, in which most features such as user priorities, contention windows, modulation and coding schemes (MCSs), and frozen states are taken into account. Then we calculate the normalized throughput and average access delay of IEEE 802.15.6 networks under saturation and ideal channel conditions. We make an evaluation of network performances by comparing with IEEE 802.15.4 and the results validate that IEEE 802.15.6 networks can provide high quality of service (QoS) for nodes with high priorities.

According to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, there are two modes, One is BPSK modulation in 868/915MHz frequency band. The other is O-QPSK modulation in 2.45GHz frequency band. In this paper we implemented the platform system mounted in one PCB board in 868/915MHz frequency band of IEEE 802.15.4 Low Rate WPAN system. We measured that the platform system which consists of digital part and RF part has good performance. Also RF part is realized by design and fabrication of the RF transceiver IC. The key issue is to make the platform system which provides the function of Low Rate WPAN system to meet the requirement of IEEE 802.15.4 standards.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a wireless home network system using Home Network Control Protocol (HNCP) called the wireless HNCP home network system. For wireless interfaces of HNCP, IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.15.4 standard protocols are considered. With the implementation of the wireless HNCP home network system, a simple analysis about coexistence between IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.15.4 is achieved. Through the implemented wireless HNCP home network system and the analytical results about the coexistence between both two different wireless protocols, the feasibility of the wireless HNCP home network system is shown.
