A novel topology generation method for the no dead-time three-phase AC/DC converter is proposed in this study. With this method, a series of no dead time topologies are generated and their operation principles are analyzed. The classic three-phase bridge AC/DC converter can realize a bidirectional operation. However, dead-time should be inserted in the driving signals to avoid the shoot-through problem, which would cause additional harmonics. Compared with the bridge topology, the proposed topologies lack the shoot-through problem. Thus, dead time can be avoided. All of the no dead time three-phase AC/DC converters can realize bidirectional operation. The operating principles of the converters are analyzed in detail, and the corresponding control strategies are discussed. Comparisons of waveform distortion and efficiency among the converters are provided. Finally, 9 KW DSP-based principle prototypes are established and tested. Simulation and experimental results verify the theoretical analysis.

Network coding has recently emerged as an effective solution for multicast and broadcast communications in wireless ad hoc networks. In this paper, we propose a throughput performance model for IEEE 802.11 wireless networks with network coding. Specifically, we consider IEEE 802.11 DCF protocol and linear topology in which traffic sources are located at both ends and intermediate nodes act as relays performing network coding. The proposed analytic model has the form of nonlinear equations in terms of throughput of each node. The solution of the nonliear equations thus correspond to the end-to-end throughput. Extensive simulation experiments have been performed to validate accuracy of the proposed model. Numerical results show that the results of the proposed analytic model agree fairly well with the corresponding simulation results.

Multicasting is the delivery of a packet simultaneously to one or more destinations using a single, local transmit operation. Typically the set of destinations is referred to as a multicast group. sources transmit to these group addresses without knowing the group's actual membership. We have studied an implementation of one model of supporting IP multicast over ATM, the Multicast over ATM model developed by the IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force). MCOA(Multicast over ATM) that includes both these modes of operation and the behavior of each in a testbed where the ATM host were connected in a WAN and LAN. WAN topology was to gain insight into the effects of larger propagation delays on the MC over ATM model.

In this paper, the design problem of local area networks is defined as finding the network topology minimizing cost subject to reliability constraint. The design problem includes issues such as multiple choices of link type for each possible link, multiple choices of hub type for each hub, and allocation of the users to the hubs. To efficiently solve the problem, a genetic approach is suggested. According to the experiments, the proposed approach improves search performance.

A 23GHz 1-stage LNA was designed by using new topology of coupled line type with EEsof softwares and modified by using MPIE numerical analysis. The parallel coupled filter-type matching sections give impedance matching and DC blocking simultaneously, and have small discontinuities. This matching scheme has simple structure in the design process and give small error. The EFT chip was directly attached to the ground metal. The designed LAN gives 6.2dB gain and 2.5dB noise figure without considering the loss of connectors. Through these results, it was verified that our design process, matching schemes and fabrication technologies was valied for developing 20GHz-band LNA.

This paper describes the design and fabrication of an MMIC variable gain LNA for 5GHz wireless LAN applications, using 0.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ gate length GaAs MESFET transistors. The advantages of high gain and low noise performance of E-MESFETS and excellent linear performance of D-MESFETS are combined as a cascode topology in this design. Behavioral model equations are derived from the MESFET nonlinear current voltage characteristics by using Turlington's asymptote method in a cascode configuration. Using the behavioral model equations, a 4${\times}$50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ E-MESFET as a common source amplifier and a 2${\times}$50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ D-MESFET as a common gate amplifier are determined for the cascode amplifier. The fabricated variable gain LNA shows a noise figure of 2.4dB, variable gain range of more than 17dB, IIP3 of -4.8dBm at 4.9GHz, and power consumption of 12.8mW.

This paper presents a high isolation and power-handling single-pole double-throw(SPDT) switch for dual band wireless LAN applications. The switch circuit has asymmetric topology which uses stacked-gate to have high power-handling and isolation for the Tx path. The proposed SPDT switch has been designed with optimum gate-width, bias, and number of stacked-gate FET. This SPDT switch has been implemented with $0.25{\mu}m$ GaAs pHEMT process which has Gmmax of 500mS/mm and fmax of 150GHz. The designed SPDT switch has the measured insertion loss of better than 0.9dB and isolation of better than 40dB for the Tx path and 25dB for the Rx path and the high power handling capability with PldB of about 23dBm for control voltage of -3/0V. The fabricated SPDT switch chip size is $1.8mm{\times}1.8mm$.

When a mobile station(MS) performs a handover, in the IEEE 802.11 WLAN, MS's channel scanning for discovering new available APs is the dominating factor in handover latency, accounting 90% of overall latency. In order to reduce such a scanning latency, we focus on the method for reducing the number of channels for the MS in handover process to scan. With the help of IEEE 802.21 information server(IS), a proper order of groups of channels to be scanned is offered by the current AP depending on the information of neighbor APs in terms of the distance from serving AP, traffic load and network topology. By using this scanning order, the passive scanning of a MS in normal operation enables the MS to filter out the unavailable channels, and thus to classify the candidate channels of neighbor APs into three groups. Then, a handover-imminent MS can perform the active scanning from the most reliable group of channels. Simulation results show that the proposed scanning scheme reduce the scanning latency in comparison with the conventional scheme.

This paper presents a topology based on packet tracer and a five-step scenario model to make it easier for students to understand the network on which VLANs are applied. Virtual LAN (VLAN), developed as an alternative solution to the Routers that distribute broadcast traffic, is a virtual local area network that logically configured regardless of the physical network. The VLAN prevents the network performance degradation resulting from the broadcast traffic by dividing the broadcast domain so that the bandwidth can be used more efficiently. In addition, it enhances the security because on communication between the devices belonging to different VLANs is impossible. The five-step scenarios in this paper presented an efficient implementation case for students to understand and validate the various functions of VLANs through ping/telnet/tracert test and simulation, after setting up each step of programming switches and routers in the virtual network.

The need for MAN(Metropolitan Area Network)has been increased by demands for high performance comuter communication. According to the definition of MAN by IEEE 802.6 MANs have diameter of about 50km, bandwidth of more than 1Mbps, and limited delay, Because optical fibers have unique characteristics that make them attractive for the implementation of MANs several fiber optic networks suitable for MAN application have been proposed. Those networks have drawbacks such as unlimited delay, many processing nodes and limited number of stations. Also IEEE 802.6 proposals and oters improved networks were proposed, but they have complicated access procedures and data buffering and difficulties in implementation. This paper descrives the design of Fiber Optic Metropolitan Area Network in Seoul(Seoul FOMAN) to overcome the drawback, Seoul FOMAN is hierarchical MAN and designed based on the topology of 43 end offices in Seoul. We propose MAN topology, proper access protocol and analyze the performance.
