무선 메쉬 네트워크(Wireless Mesh Network, WMN)는 유비쿼터스 환경 및 무선 브로드 밴드 액세스를 제공하기 위한 차세대 핵심기술로 떠오르고 있다. 다양한 멀티미디어 서비스가 존재하는 유비쿼터스 환경에서 실시간 서비스 제공을 위해서는 네트워크 용량 증대가 요구되며, 이를 위하여 WMN에서 네트워크 용량을 증대시키기 위한 다중 인터페이스 활용 기술이 중요한 이슈로 대두되고 있다. 하지만 WMN에서 주로 사용하는 인터페이스 기술인 IEEE 802.11 표준에서는 IEEE 802.11b/g 또는 IEEE 802.11a와 같은 스펙에 따라 간섭 없이 사용할 수 있는 채널은 3개 또는 12개로 한정되어 있기 때문에 다중 인터페이스 활용을 통해 증대된 가용 자원 효율성을 극대화하기 위해서 효율적인 채널 할당 기법의 연구가 요구되며, 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 채널 그룹 설정을 통하여 간섭 발생을 최소화하며 채널스캐닝 과정을 수행하지 않고 채널 변경을 진행함으로써 채널 스캐닝 과정으로 발생하는 전송 지연을 최소화하여 네트워크 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 채널 할당 기법을 제안한다.

IEEE1394 기술은 오디오 비디오 기기의 디지털화가 이루어지고 멀티미디어 환경이 부상함에 따라 이들간의 공통된 새로운 인터페이스 방식의 필요에 의해 발생한 직렬 버스 방식을 이용한 디지털 인터페이스 방식으로, 고속의 실시간 데이터 전송을 가능하게 해 주는 차세대 핵심 기술이다. 기가비트급의 높은 데이터 전송율을 자랑하는 IEEE1394 기술은 따라서 멀티미디어 PC와 오디오/비디오 등 높은 대역폭을 요구하는 가전기기를 하나로 묶어줄 수 있는 유일한 기술이며, 그 위에 TCP/IP 프로토콜을 얹어서 인터넷과도 직접 연결되므로, 옥내 통신망 구축을 위하여 제안되고 있는 HomeRF나 Bluetooth, 그리고 IEEE 802.11 계열의 기술들과 비교하면 그 효용성과 기능성, 그리고 필요성과 속도 면에서 다른 위치를 점유하고 있다. 따라서 IEEE1394 기술은1394b와 같은 유선 흠 네트워킹 기술을 사용하거나 IEEE802.1la 혹은 11g와 같은 무선 랜 기술을 이용한 Home Network의 Backbone 기술을 이용하면 IEEE1394 기술이 갖고 있는 미래의 시장 규모는 가히 폭발적이라 할 수 있다.

This paper proposes a virtual mobile ad-hoc network (VMANET) model that automatically divides heterogeneous mobile devices of a MANET into a number of network groups depending on the communication capacity(data rate) of different network operational models such as IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11b, and Frequency Hopping. In addition, it supports a distinct routing protocol for each network group of VMANETs, resulting in running multiple routing protocols concurrently on different groups of VMANETs. To reduce the network congestion and improve the network load balance, a default MANET gateway is configured in each VMANET and these gateways are responsible for integrating the MANET and IP networks. Experiment results show that the proposed model outperforms the conventional IMANET by significantly increasing throughput and reducing network congestion and network delay.

As growing up of elderly population, the interesting on healthcare system in normal life using W is increasing. An integrated u-healthcare service architecture with IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.15.4 based sensor network and code divisi(m multiple access(CDMA) public mobile telecommunication networks was designed and developed. Sensor nodes with electrocardiogram(ECG), body core temperature sensors are attached on the patients' body. The healthcare parameters are transferred to web server via CDMA mobile network or through existed LAN network. The existed LAN network is suggested to be used for continuous monitoring of patient's health status in hospital while mobile networks can be used for general purpose at home or outdoor where infra networks unavailable. This system enable healthcare personal to be able to continuously access, review, monitor and transmit the patients information whereever they are, whenever they want. And immediately check their status by using cellular phone and obtain detail information by communication with medical information server through CDMA. By using this developed integrated u-healthcare service architecture, we can monitor patients' health status for 24 hours.

This paper has proposed a novel dual band transmitter module which can be operating either as an amplifier or as a frequency multiplier according to the input frequency. A conventional dual band transmitter consists of separate amplifiers operating at each frequency band, but the proposed dual band module operates as an amplifier for the IEEE 802.11b/g signal, and as a frequency doubler for the IEEE 802.11a signal according to input frequency and bias voltage. In this paper, we have obtained sharp stop band characteristics by using microstrip DGS(Defected Ground Structure) to suppress the fundamental frequency of the frequency doubler as well as the second harmonic of the amplifier. From measurement result, second harmonic suppression is below -59dBc in the amplifier mode, and fundamental suppression is below -35dBc in the frequency doubler mode. And the designed module has 17.8dBm output P1dB at 2.4GHz and 10.1dBm power for 5.8GHz output, and the output power in the two modes are 0.8dB and 2.8dB larger than the module with ${\lambda}g/4$ reflector, respectively.

In ad-hoc network, the most of existing packet scheduling schemes provides throughput-based fairness. To provide throughput-based fairness, it basically supposes that the channel capacity is fixed. But, the supposing that the channel capacity is fixed is not appropriate because IEEE 802.11b and 802.11g which are normally used for organizing ad-hoc network can provide various data rate according to channel conditions. So, we define time-based fairness for each flow to consider multi-rate and suggest the MRADPS reaching the defined time-based fairness. Simulation result shows that MRADPS improves the total network throughput in ad-hoc network with providing time-based fairness to each flow.

In the paper, a dual-bandpass filter for ship's wireless LAN has proposed, which was designed by using step stub in compliance with 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz band The dual-bandpass filter can be designed by adjusting the sizes of the step stub in compliance with the frequency bands of 2.4 GHz and 5.2 GHz, which has the improved performance compared with the existing dual-bandpass filter. Furthermore, dual-bandpass filter using step stub has better efficiency. The measured results for the fabricated dual-bandpass filters agreed well with the simulated ones, and hence it was confirmed that the proposed design method is valid.

Due to the nature that high datarate leads to shorter transmission range, the performance enhancement by high datarate 802.11 WLANs may be degraded when applying high datarate to an 802.11 based multihop ad hoc network. In this paper, we evaluate, through extensive simulations, the performance of multihop ad hoc networks at multiple transmission datarates, in terms of the number of hops between source and destination, throughput, end-to-end delay and packet loss. The study is conducted based on both stationary chain topology and mesh topologies with or without node mobility. From numerical results on network performance based on chain topology, we conclude that there is almost no benefit by applying the highest datarate when the chain length is 6 hops or more. With node mobility in mesh topology, the benefit of using high datarate diminishes at even shorter number of hops. To explore the main reasons for this behavior, analyses on multihop end-to-end throughput and network k-connectivity have been conducted later in the paper, and correspondingly an auto-rate adaptation algorithm has been proposed.

This paper presents a 900 MHz zero-IF RF transceiver for IEEE 802.15.4g Smart Utility Networks OFDM systems. The proposed RF transceiver comprises an RF front end, a Tx baseband analog circuit, an Rx baseband analog circuit, and a ${\Delta}{\Sigma}$ fractional-N frequency synthesizer. In the RF front end, re-use of a matching network reduces the chip size of the RF transceiver. Since a T/Rx switch is implemented only at the input of the low noise amplifier, the driver amplifier can deliver its output power to an antenna without any signal loss; thus, leading to a low dc power consumption. The proposed current-driven passive mixer in Rx and voltage-mode passive mixer in Tx can mitigate the IQ crosstalk problem, while maintaining 50% duty-cycle in local oscillator clocks. The overall Rx-baseband circuits can provide a voltage gain of 70 dB with a 1 dB gain control step. The proposed RF transceiver is implemented in a $0.18{\mu}$ CMOS technology and consumes 37 mA in Tx mode and 38 mA in Rx mode from a 1.8 V supply voltage. The fabricated chip shows a Tx average power of -2 dBm, a sensitivity level of -103 dBm at 100 Kbps with PER < 1%, an Rx input $P_{1dB}$ of -11 dBm, and an Rx input IP3 of -2.3 dBm.
