LILI-II stream cipher is an upgraded version of the LILI-128, one of candidates in NESSIE. Since the algorithm is a clock-controlled, the speed of the keystream data is degraded structurally in a clock-synchronized hardware logic design. Accordingly, this paper proposes a 4-bit parallel LFSR, where each register bit includes four variable data routines for feedback or shifting within the LFSR. furthermore, the timing of the proposed design is simulated using a Max+plus II from the ALTERA Co., the logic circuit is implemented for an FPGA device (EPF10K20RC240-3), and apply to the Lucent ASIC device (LV160C, 0.13${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS ＆ 1.5v technology), and it could achieve a throughput of about 500 Mbps with a 0.13${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ semiconductor for the maximum path delay below 1.8㎱. Finally, we propose the m-parallel implementation of LILI-II, throughput with 4, 8 or 16 Gbps (m=8, 16 or 32).

SoC(systnn-on-a-chip) requires high bandwidth system bus for performing multiple functions. Performance of the system is affected by bandwidth of the system bus. In this paper, for efficient management of the bus resource on a SoC platform, we present a latency model of the shared bus organized by multiple layers. Using the latency model, we can analyze latencies of the shared bus on a SoC. Moreover we evaluate a throughput of the bus and compare with needed throughput of the SoC platform including IPs such as MPEG or USB 2.0. And we can use the results as a criteria to find out an optimal bus architecture for the specific SoC design. For verifying accuracy of the proposed model, we compared the latencies with the simulation result from MaxSim tools. As the result of simulation, the accuracy of the IS model for a single layer and multiple layer are over $96\%\;and\;85\%$ respectively.

Mobile multi-hop relaying (MMR) technology is being considered as a promising solution capable to enhance coverage, user throughput, and system capacity of the current wired backbone dependent wireless access networks. Since the relaying nodes do not need a wired backbone access, MMR technology offers easy and low-cost deployment, flexible cell planning, and adaptive traffic handling performance. In this paper, we investigate performance and cost effectiveness of the MMR technology deployment in the IEEE802.16j based WiBro/WiMAX systems. We first introduce standardization activities and research issues of MMR WiBro/ WiMAX systems. Since the coverage extension problem may occur in metropolitan areas as well as suburban or rural areas where user density is relatively low or moderate, we introduce several MMR topologies and analyze cost-effectiveness of MMR based coverage extension with respect to the user traffic density. Then, we argue cost effect on MMR technology deployment and throughput performance, Finally, we introduce further study issues including sectorized base station based MMR deployment approaches and the single and multi-frame structure MMR approaches.

In this paper, we propose a wireless access network virtualization algorithm based on a digital unit (DU)-radio unit (RU) separated network structure in a cellular network with multiple radio access technologies (RATs). The proposed wireless access network virtualization algorithm consists of a baseline access network virtualization, RAT virtualization, and access path migration algorithms. Final wireless access network virtualization is performed by sequentially performing these procedures. Through system-level simulations which assume 3GPP LTE and WiMAX systems, the performance of the proposed wireless access network virtualization is evaluated in terms of system throughput for two scenarios according to asymmetry of network traffic load. Numerical results show that our proposed wireless access network virtualization algorithm achieves significant system throughput gain even in asymmetric traffic load and user distribution situations.

Recently, the IEEE 802.11 working group has announced a new distributed MAC called EDCF to provide service differentiation among traffic classes. With the increasing demand for supporting Quality of Service in IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs, the EDCF is now attracting many researchers' attention due to its practical worth as a standard mechanism. In this paper, we focus on the analytical approach to evaluate the performance of the EDCF. An analytical model is developed to estimate the throughput of the EDCF in saturation (asymptotic) conditions. Extensive simulation studies have been carried out for the validation of the analysis, and they show that it estimates the throughput of the EDCF accurately By utilizing the analytical model, we evaluate the performance of the EDCF. Specifically, we concentrate on discovering the characteristics of the EDCF Parameters, such as CW/Sub min/, CW/Sub max/ and AIFS, in the way that they influence on the performance of the EDCF.

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) has become a popular modulation scheme for wireless protocols because of its spectral efficiency and robustness against multipath interference. Although the components of various OFDM protocols are functionally similar, they remain distinct because of the characteristics of the environment. Recently, graphics processing units (GPUs) have been used to accelerate the signal processing of the physical layer (PHY) because of their great computational power, high development efficiency, and flexibility. In this paper, we describe the implementation of parameterized baseband modules using GPUs for two different OFDM protocols, namely, 802.11a and 802.16. First, we introduce various modules in the modulator/demodulator parts of the transmitter and receiver and analyze the computational complexity of each module. We then describe the integration of the GPU-based baseband modules of the two protocols using the parameterized method. GPU-based implementations are addressed to explain how to accelerate the baseband processing to archive real-time throughput. Finally, the performance results of each signal processing module are evaluated and analyzed. The experiments show that the GPU-based 802.11a and 802.16 PHY meet the real-time requirement and demonstrate good bit error ratio (BER) performance. The performance comparison indicates that our GPU-based implemented modules have better flexibility and throughput to the current ones.

We consider a model describing large scale performance of multiservice networks supporting both constant- and adaptive-rate services. As the number of constant-rate connection changes over time in multiservice networks, the available bandwidth for adaptive-rate connections changes as well. We estimate the available bandwidth for adaptive-rate service in a dynamically changing traffic environment based on Erlang fixed point equation and Little\`s law. The bandwidth allocation for adaptive-rate service is determined by the max-min fairness criterion. We find an upper bound on the average minimum throughput for adaptive-rate service, and 7how that the bound is achieved in large-capacity networks. This is verified using network examples. Since max-min fair allocation may not maximize the total throughput or revenue in a network, we consider adjustments via network level priority schemes to increase efficiency.

IEEE standard 802.16, often referred to as WiMAX, is considered a "last mile" broadband wireless access alternative to conventional DSL and Cable Internet. One extension that is recently receiving great attention is the IEEE 802.16j Mobile Multihop Relay (MMR) amendment. The focus of this amendment is the development of simple and lower cost relay stations (RSs) that can enhance network coverage and capacity. We use our proposed simple scheduling scheme for serving the SSs in a fair manner and evaluate the performance of WiMAX networks with relays, especially we analyze the impact of interference between RSs on cell throughput Through simulations and numerical analysis, we make several fundamental observations about interference aware cost effective coverage extension in such networks.

This paper describes a design of low-density parity-check(LDPC) decoder supporting block length 2,304-bit and code rate 1/2 of IEEE 802.16e mobile WiMAX standard. The designed LDPC decoder employs the min-sum algorithm and partially parallel layered-decoding architecture which processes a sub-matrix of $96{\times}96$ in parallel. By exploiting the properties of the min-sum algorithm, a new memory reduction technique is proposed, which reduces check node memory by 46% compared to conventional method. Functional verification results show that it has average bit-error-rate(BER) of $4.34{\times}10^{-5}$ for AWGN channel with Fb/No=2.1dB. Our LDPC decoder synthesized with a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS cell library has 174,181 gates and 52,992 bits memory, and the estimated throughput is about 417 Mbps at 100-MHz@l.8-V.

Material flow control (MFC) is a kind of operational policy to control of the movement of raw materials, components, and products through the manufacturing lines. It is very important because it varies throughput, line cycle time, and work-in-process (WIP) under the same manufacturing environments. MFC can be largely categorized into three types such as Push, Pull, and Hybrid. In this paper, we set various manufacturing environments to compare five existing MFC mechanisms: Push, Pull, and Hybrid (CONWIP, Gated MaxWIP, Critical WIP Loops, etc). Three manufacturing environments, manufacturing policies (make to stock and make to order), demand (low, medium, high), and line balancing (balanced, unbalanced, and highly unbalanced) are considered. The MFCs are compared in the point of the five functional efficiencies and the proposed compounded efficiency. The simulation results shows that the Push is superior in the functional efficiency and GMWIP is superior in the compounded efficiency.
