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.

Wireless LAN system is evolving toward high-speed data transmission and more accurate channel estimation is necessarily required to improve communication performance. The PLCP preamble field in IEEE 802.11 based wireless MODEM consists of ten short symbols and two long symbols and is used for synchronization and channel estimation. The existing least square (LS) channel estimation is based on only two long training symbols. After estimating channel response separately by using each long training symbol, the final channel estimation is obtained by the average of each estimation. In this paper, a new channel estimation algorithm is presented to improve the performance of the existing LS channel estimation algorithm. From the fact that the short training symbol consists of 12 non-zero subcarriers, it gives us a clue of being able to additionally estimate at least one fourth of channel coefficients. The new LS algorithm performs channel estimation based on both two long training symbols and a short training symbol. The proposed LS algorithm shows a little bit performance improvement over the existing LS estimation and it will be able to be applied to the IEEE 802.11p WAVE system.

The OFDM modulation and transmission block have been modeled in order to analyse the relationship between the 2.4GHz power amplifier distortion and output ACPR for the IEEE 802.11g wireless LAN. The nonlinear characteristic of the power amplifier has been modeled as AM-to-AM and AM-to-PM using the behavioral model, and the output spectrum is analysed with the phase distortion variation. Also, amplifier back-off value from P1dB to satisfy the required IEEE 802.11g standard spectrum mask s been simulated with modeled phase distortion, and the simulation data have been compared to the measured result by using the pre-distortion technique.

According to wireless network technology and mobile processors performance were improved, the small wireless mobile device such as smart phones has been widely utilized. The mobile devices can be used GPS information, thereby the services based on location information was increased. GPS was impossible to provide location information in indoor and signal shading environment, and the tracking systems based on short distance wireless communication are required infrastructure. The IEEE 802.11 based tracking system is possible estimation using APs, however the tracking device is exhausted battery power seriously. In this paper, we propose IEEE 802.11 based low-power tracking system. We reduced power consumption from channel scanning and network connection. For performance evaluation, we designed and implemented the tracking tag device, and measured power consumption of the device. As the simulation result, we confirmed that the power consumption was reduced 46% compare to the standard execution.

The MAC of IEEE 802.11 WLAN to control data transmission uses two control methods called DCF and PCF. The DCF uses BEB backoff algorithm based on CSMA/CA. The BEB backoff algorithm shows excellent performance relatively in situation that competition between stations is less, but its performance is decreases as the competition increases. This paper proposes and analyses mathematically an enhanced backoff algorithm. To reduce the collision probability, the proposed algorithm increases the contention window to maximum after collision and decreases the contention window smoothly after successful transmission. To prove efficiency of proposed algorithm, simulations are conducted and analyzed.

This paper explores the throughput performance of CSMA/CA-based DCF protocol over frequency-selective, slow Ricean fading channels with both the $E_{b}/N_{o}$ and BER at the MAC layer in the 802.1 la wireless LAN. By exploring the throughput of DCF protocol with the data rate of 6Mbps, 12 Mbps, 24 Mbps and 54 Mbps, we find the fact that the higher the $E_{b}/N_{o}$ be and the less the BER be, the higher the throughput be.

The interest in wireless LAN security is on the increase owing to a role of high-speed wireless Internet infrastructure of wireless LAN. Wi-Fi has released WPA standard in order to overcome drawbacks of WEP algorithm that is security element of current IEEE 802.11-based wireless LAN system. Pairwise key management and group key management in a mixed-mode which supports both terminals running WPA and terminals running original WEP security are very complicate. In this paper, we analyze flaws in WPA authenticator key management state machine for key distribution and propose the countermeasures to overcome the analyzed problems. Additionally, WPA authenticator key management state machine to which the solutions are applied is described. The reconstructed WPA authenticator key management state machine helps the AP perform efficiently group key exchange and group key update in the mixed-mode.

WLAN technologies enable high-speed data transmission in a small space with relatively low cost and power. There are two main standardizations regarding WLAN; namely, IEEE802.11a and ETSI BRAN. Two standards use a radio frequency of 5 ㎓ band and employs OFDM as a transmission mode. OFDM is known to provide high-frequency efficiency as well as high-speed data transmission. In this paper, We use SPW simulation tool and implement the HIPERLAN/2 system. Based on the HIPERLAN/2 system in the SPW platform, the system performance is analyzed and compared with turbo codes in place of a convolutional coder of the HIPERLAN/2 WLAN system. The simulation results show that the performance with the turbo codes (rate 1/3 and 1/4) at a data rate of 12 Mbps shows 3 ㏈ gain over the system with the convolutional codes. At a data rate of 36 Mbps, the performance with the turbo codes is further improved by approximately 4 ㏈.

In this paper, we have analyzed the effects of co-channel, adjacent-channel, and the human shield(Body Blockage) for wideband WLAN based on the IEEE802.11n 40MHz channel bandwidth required for high speed digital signage service. Simulation results show that wideband WLAN can be operated with 78 interferers over 63m distance in co- channel, 80 interferer over 61m distance in adjacent channel. By applying the mitigation method for reducing the interference, we have confirmed that protection distance is improved to 51m using beamforming, and 40m using cognitive radio in co-channel interference. Also body blockage interference is reduced using adaptive channel bandwidth, C/I ratio, beamforming, power control mitigation methodology.
