In the IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs), network nodes experiencing collisions on the shared channel need to backoff for a random period of time, which is uniformly selected from the Contention Window (CW). This contention window is dynamically controlled by the Binary Exponential Backoff (BEB) algorithm. The BEB scheme suffers from a fairness problem and low throughput under high traffic load. In this paper, I propose a new backoff algorithm for use with the IEEE 802.11 Distributed Coordination Function.

무선 멀티 홉 네트워크는 채널 상태의 불안정으로 인해 전송 지연, 패킷 손실 등의 발생이 빈번하며 홉 수가 증가할수록 이와 같은 품질 저하는 더욱 심각해진다. 무선 멀티 홉 네트워크에서 QoS를 보장하기 위해 IEEE 802.11e에서는 우선순위가 높은 노드에게 정해진 시간 동안 연속해서 보낼 수 있도록 TXOP(Transmission Opportunity) 파라미터 값을 정해놓고 있다. 하지만 IEEE 802.11e는 단일 홉 네트워크를 가정하여 설계되었기 때문에 멀티 홉 무선 환경에서 홉 수의 증가에 따른 지연 및 손실 증가를 고려하지 않는다. 본 논문에서는 멀티 홉 환경에서의 QoS 지원을 위한 DTA (Dynamic TXOP Allocation) 메커니즘을 제안하였다. DTA 메커니즘은 네트워크 상황을 고려한 동적 TXOP 할당 기법으로, 각 노드의 전송 큐 상태와 종단간 전송 지연 비율을 판별하여 이에 따른 QoS 지원을 위한 동적 TXOP를 할당한다. 이를 통해 불안정한 채널 상태 및 멀티 홉 환경에서 홉 수 증가에 따른 성능 감소를 개선할 수 있었다.

기존 IEEE 802.11 MAC (1)에서는 Fairness를 보장하며 Resource를 제공하는 것을 목표로 동일한 DIFS, Back-off 알고리즘, Source가 같은 경우 동일한 Frame size등을 사용하는 Specification을 작성하여 구현한다. 최근 Home Network과 같은 특수한 Ad-Hoc 환경에서의 이런 Fairness Resource Usage가 오히려 기대 성능을 떨어뜨리는 결과를 가져오고 있다. 이에 802.11 MAC에서 Backward Compatibility를 유지하면서 Prioritized DIFS/Backoff/Frame를 통해 차등화된 서비스를 제공하는 메커니즘을 제안하고자 하는 것이 본 논문의 목표이다.

In this paper we propose a new method which adjusts the collision resolution depending on busy status of the channel to improve performance of IEEE 802.11 DCF. This scheme reduces the number of collisions in wireless channel by decreasing the amount of movements of each station's backoff stage based on busy event count and the one stage backoff model. Through simulation, we compared the performance of our scheme with that of DCF, ADCF and SD.

무선랜 환경에서의 효율적인 비디오 스트리밍을 하기위해서는 불안정한 네트워크 대역폭과 패킷지연, 패킷손실 등의 문제가 해결 되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 서비스 품질의 보장을 위해 기존의 Best-effort에 기반한 IEEE 802.11 MAC 프로토콜을 향상시킨 IEEE 802.11e MAC 프로토콜을 이용하여 Cross-layer 기반의 프레임 우선순위화 기법을 제안 하였다. 멀티미디어 트래픽의 프레임 중요도에 따라 다르게 부여한 Priority를 이용해 IEEE 802.11e MAC 프로토콜의 차별화된 데이터 전송을 하였으며, 네트워크 상태 모니터링을 통해 중요도가 낮은 프레임을 우선적으로 폐기하는 적응적 전송율 조절 기법을 제안하였다. 실험 결과는 제안하는 Cross-layer기반의 프레임 우선순위화 기법이 멀티미디어 스트리밍의 종단간 QoS를 향상 시킬 수 있음을 보여준다.

A FFT/IFFT processor is the key component for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems based IEEE 802.11n wireless local area network (WLAN). There exists many radix algorithms according to the structure of butterfly as FFT sub-module, each has the pros and cons on hardware complexity. Here, mixed radix algorithms for 64 and 128 FFT/IFFT processors are proposed, which reduce hardware complexity by using mixture of radix-23 and radix-4 algorithms. The proposed algorithm finish calculation within 3.2${\mu}s$ in order to meet IEEE 802.11n standard requirements and it has less hardware complexity compared with conventional algorithms.

Recently there are increasing needs for Internet and various kinds of contents. These traffics for various contents need more amount of data to provide high-quality information and require various QoS depending on the characteristics of contents. However, current Internet service supports BE (Best Effort) service only, therefore IntServ (Integrated Service) scheme and DiffSserv (Differentiated Service) scheme are represented to support QoS in IP layer. This paper describes new scheme that provides QoS taking into account the traffic characteristics over Mobile IPv6 network based on IEEE 802.11e by decreasing signal process time using traffic class of DiffServ and evaluates the performance through computer simulation.

WLAN(Wireless Local Area Network) standard is currently developing with increased wireless internet demand. Though existing IEEE 802.11e demonstrates that data rates exceed 54Mbps with assuring QoS(Quality of Service), wireless internet users can't be satisfied with real communication system. After IEEE 802.11e system, Study trends of IEEE 802.11n show two aspects, enhanced system throughput using aggregation among packets in MAC (Medium Access Control) layer, and better data rates adapting MIMO(Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) in PHY(Physical) layer. But, no one demonstrates IEEE 802.11n system performance results considering MAC and PHY connection. Therefore, this paper adapts MIMO in PHY layer for IEEE 802.11n system based on A-MPDU(Aggregation-MAC Protocol Data Unit) method in MAC layer considering MAC and PHY connection. SVD(Singular Value Decomposition) method with WLAN MIMO TGn Channel is used to analyze MIMO. Consequently, Simulation results show enhanced throughput and data rates compared to existing system. Also, We use Ns-2(Network Simulator-2) considering MAC and PHY connection for reality.

In this paper, we present Beamforming (BF) Training (BFT) for asymmetric links in IEEE 802.11ay. IEEE 802.11ay introduced BFT for asymmetric links that aims to increase the BFT success probability for Station (STA) with insufficient link budget to communicate with an Access Point (AP). BFT for asymmetric links utilizes directional BFT allocation to avoid the usage of quasi-omni pattern at the AP side, and thus to increase STA's BFT success rate. However, there are no publicly available simulation tools supporting IEEE 802.11ay. For these reasons, we present in this paper an implementation of BFT for asymmetric links in ns-3 with its novel techniques such as Training RX (TRN-R) subfield and BFT allocation. We then evaluate by simulation the performance of BFT for asymmetric links.

One of major characteristics in wireless LAN is terminal's frequent mobility, so it makes many overheads in the process of authentications repeatedly at each handoffs. So I propose IAPP(Inter Access Point Protocol) of IEEE 802.11f, modified context block and 4 way handshake of IEEE 802.11i, in order to implement secure and rapid handoff. The context block. I proposed, doesn't makes any communication with RADIUS server at handoff period. Therefore, it guarantee higher efficiency than existing handoff mechanisms. Also it can improve security vulnerability by padding authentication field in the context block for providing in advance against Replay and DoS(Denial of Service) attacks.
