This paper proposes a Ku-band multi-mode coupler and its monopulse tracking system, which can be applied to a unmaned aircraft vehicle(UAV) platform. In general, the carrier-to-noise(C/N) level of the beacon signal from a Ku-band commercial satellite is relatively weak compared to that of a military satellite because the Ku-band satellite has been designed for commercial services. Therefore, this paper proposes a coupler and its multi-mode monopulse tracking system satisfying the tracking accuracy under a low C/N environment and analyzes the tracking accuracy. After that, we perform a real satellite tracking test and compare the accuracy of the test with the analysis result before validating the performance of the architecture of the proposed satellite tracking system.

According to the complete standard document for PHY/MAC layer of visible light communication through the IEEE 802.15.7 WG on Sept. 2011, visible light communication lays a good foundation for developing a variety of application services. Thus, visible light communication moves to the advanced research period for developing application services, but most of applications are limited only to PtP service model. However, PtMP communication environment for VLC is required to accommodate more various applications. In this paper, we analyze an effect of key parameters on network performance in the star topology based visible personal area network system. We implement a simulator with considering attributes of PHY and MAC layer which are defined by IEEE 802.15.7 standard documents, and analyze the VLC performance.

In the wireless sensor networks using a multi-hop, quality variation of links occurs irregularly due to the hardware restriction and environmental factor. If an appropriate route, which is affected by the quality variation, is not selected. Traditionally, a beacon is periodically broadcasted and the link quality is estimated. However, the periodically beacon based scheme cannot efficiently estimate the quality of the link changing irregularly. In this paper, a scheme to estimate the link quality adaptively according to network state is proposed. When the link quality changes, the scheme adapts to a change agilely and packet losses are reduced. When there is no change of the link quality, the link quality is estimated in the long period and the energy consumption is reduced. Through performance evaluations, we prove that our adaptive link estimation scheme improves the energy efficiency and packet reception ratio than the periodic estimation scheme.

Unlike the satellite-based outdoor positioning system, the indoor positioning system utilizes various wireless technologies such as BLE, Wi-Fi, and UWB. BLE-based beacon technology can measure the user's location by periodically broadcasting predefined device ID and location information and using RSSI from the receiving device. Existing BLE-based indoor positioning system studies have many studies comparing the error between the user's actual location and the estimated location at a single point. In this paper, we propose a technique to evaluate the positioning accuracy according to the movement path or area by applying the entropy analysis model. In addition, simulation results show that calculated entropy results for different paths can be compared to assess which path is more accurate.

In this paper, a routing algorithm for wireless sensor networks is proposed to improve the efficiency of energy consumption in sensor nodes. Each sensor node has the value called ‘Flooding Level’ obtained through the initial flooding from a sink node instead of sending beacon messages in multi-hop sensor field. This value can be used for guaranteeing the sensor nodes to connect with a sink node and determining the roles of cluster-head and cluster-gateway node efficiently and simply during the clustering. If different algorithms are added to our protocol, it will work better in the side of energyefficiency. This algorithm is evaluated through analysis and extensive simulations.

An ad hoc network is a multi-hop wireless network. Its limited bandwidth and frequently changing topology require that its protocol should be robust, simple, and energy conserving. We have proposed PoolODMRP to reduce its control overhead greatly by its one-hop local route maintenance. However, PoolODMRP still has some shortcomings. In this paper, we propose PDAODMRP (passive data acknowledgement ODMRP) to extend PoolODMRP. Compared with PoolODMRP, PDAODMRP has the following contributions: (1) It knows the status of its downstream forwarding nodes by route information collected from data packets instead of BEACON signal of MAC layer; (2) it max simplifies the route information collected from data packets by pool nodes; (3) it adopts a dynamic local route maintenance to enforce its local route maintenance; (4) it adopts the route evaluation policy of NSMP (neighbor supporting multicast protocol). Compared with PoolODMRP, PDAODMRP has lower control overhead, lower data delivery delay, and lower data overhead.

본 논문은 강의 시 외국인에게 번역된 강의 내용을 보다 효율 적으로 전달하기 위한 자막 전송 강의 시스템에 대하여 기술한다. 기존 자막 서비스는 화면 하단에 자막을 두는 방법으로 사용되고 있다. 하지만 이러한 방법을 사용할 경우 다국어 자막 안내는 불가능하다. 또한 자막이 필요 없는 청중에게는 불필요한 서비스가 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 블루투스 Low Energy 비콘을 사용하여 효율적인 실시간 자막 전송 방식을 제안한다. 여러 언어로 실시간 번역된 자막을 비콘을 통하여 브로드 캐스팅 하여 번역 서비스가 필요한 청중은 스마트폰을 이용하여 원하는 언어의 자막만 수신 할 수 있다.

This paper describes a new approach to Internet host mobility. We argue that local mobility, the performance of existing mobile host protocol can be significantly improved. It proposes Fast Moving Detection schemethat based on neighbor AP channel information and moving detection table. And, it composes Local Area Clustering Path (LACP) domain that collected in AP's channel information and MN interface information. It stored the roaming table to include channel information and moving detection. Those which use the proposal scheme will need to put LACP information into the beacon or probe frame. Each AP uses scheme to inform available channel information to MN. From the simulation result, we show that the proposed scheme is advantageous over the legacy schemes in terms of theburst blocking probability and the link utilization.

무선 BAN은 인체를 중심으로 3m 이내에서 이루어지는 통신을 위한 기술이다. 무선 BAN은 인체 내 외부에서 의료용 서비스를 위하여 여러 개의 채널로 구성된 MICS(Medical Implanted Communication Service) 주파수 대역을 사용한다. MICS는 다중 채널 환경에서 LBT(Listen Before Talk)와 AFA(Adaptive Frequency Agile)을 사용하여 장치간의 간섭을 최소화한다. 경쟁기반의 LBT와 AFA는 데이터 전송의 안정성을 보장하지 못할 뿐만 아니라 채널 홉핑(Hopping)으로 인한 전력 소비를 야기한다. 본 논문에서는 의료용 데이터의 주기적인 특성과 전송 안정성을 고려하여 예약 기법의 채널 액세스 관리 기법을 제안한다. 여러 채널 가운데 하나의 채널을 제어 채널로 설정하고 나머지는 데이터 전송을 위한 채널로 설정한다. 코디네이터는 제어 채널에서 beacon을 전송하여 디바이스에게 데이터 채널을 할당한다. 예약방식을 통하여 채널 할당의 안정성을 확보할 뿐만 아니라 디바이스의 요구 사항에 따라 채널을 유동적으로 결합함으로써 채널의 효율성을 개선한다. 또한 제어 채널 관리 방안을 통하여 LBT 장치와 상호 운용성을 확보하고, 시뮬레이션을 통하여 예약방식의 채널 관리 방안의 효율성을 검증한다.
