As one of the most spotlighted research areas, these days, the Internet of Things (IoT) aims to provide users with various services through many devices. Since there exist so many devices in IoT environments, it is inefficient to manually configure the domain name system (DNS) names of such devices. Thus, for IPv6-based IoT environments, this paper proposes a scheme called the DNS Name Autoconfiguration (DNSNA) that autoconfigures an IoT device's DNS name and manages it. In the procedure for generating and registering an IoT device's DNS name, the standard protocols of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) are used. Since the proposed scheme resolves an IoT device's DNS name into an IPv6 address in unicast through a DNS server, it generates less traffic than multicast-based mDNS (Multicast DNS) which is a legacy DNS application for the DNS name service in the smart home. Thus, the proposed scheme is more appropriate in multi-hop IoT networks than mDNS. This paper explains the design of the proposed scheme and its service scenarios, such as smart home and smart road. It also explains the implementation and testing of the proposed scheme in the smart grid.

In hierarchical Mobile IPv4 Networks the highest FA(Foreign Agent) may experience serious congestion and delay since the highest FA plays a role of CoA(Care of Address) for all mobile nodes in the domain, In this paper, we propose mechanism called 'HRFA(Hierarchical Root Foreign Agent)', which distributes the load imposed on the highest FA. In the proposed HRFA scheme, multiple HRFAs are selected to provide the similar service that is provided by the highest FA. According to which entity determines HRFAs, HRFA scheme is categorized into 'Active' and 'Passive' approaches. HRFA scheme is further categorized into 'All MN(Mobile Node)s' and 'New MNs' approaches, depending on which mobile nodes are assigned to a newly elected HRFA. Through a course of simulations, we investigate the performance of 4 possible combinations of HRFA schemes. We also compare the performance of the proposed HRFA schemes with the LMSP(Local Multicast Service Provider) scheme, which is a scheme to distribute the load of FA for multicast service in hierarchical wireless network domain. The simulation results show that the Passive & New MN approach performs best with respect to both the overhead and the load balancing.

As the IP multicast function is very slowly deployed in Internet due to its scalability problem and inter-domain interoperability problem, interest in the P2P(Peer-to-Peer) streaming technologies for the realtime multimedia multicast applications such as IPTV is highly growing. This paper proposes a P2P streaming method for the QoS-sensitive multimedia multicast applications such as highly-interactive personal IPTV and video conferences. The proposed P2P streaming method allows an application to construct a reliable streaming tree in which a proper number of backup peers are placed according to its reliability requirement. The reliable streaming tree reduces the reconnection delay, occurred in the case of a normal and/or abnormal peer leave, so as to minimize the loss of streaming data. In the proposed P2P streaming method, the join delay of a peer called startup delay is also substantially reduced because the bandwidth and end-to-end delay information of every peer kept in a distributed way allows the target peer for a joining peer to be able to be quickly determined. Moreover, the proposed method's peer admission control mechanism based on the bandwidth and end-to-end delay enables the delay-bounded streaming services to be provided for its corresponding applications.

오늘날 인터넷은 가능한 모든 서비스와 컨텐츠가 단일한 인터페이스를 통해 제공되는 통합 어플리케이션의 시대를 맞이하고 있다. 그리고 고 풀질의 멀티미디어 컨텐츠의 쌍방향/실시간 통신까지 요구되고 있다. 최근의 이러한 요구는 기존 유니캐스트 통신 방식으로 제공하기에 한계가 있기 때문에, 멀티캐스트 통신 방식으로의 전환이 필요하다. 하지만 기존 유니캐스트 기반구조의 비대화는 멀티캐스트 기반구조로의 전환에 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존 유니캐스트 기반구조에 멀티캐스트를 안전하게 이식할 수 있는 계층적 도메인 기반의 멀티캐스트 에이전트 시스템을 제안하고자 한다.

최근 들어 신시간 멀티미디어를 지원하는 응용들이 증가됨에 따라, 하나의 도메인 내에서의 서비스 품질보장을 지원하기 위한 멀티캐스트 프로토콜에 대한 연구가 증가하고 있다. 그러나 진정한 서비스 품질 보장을 위해서는 도메인간 환경에서의 서비스 품질보장이 이루어져야 한다. 본 논문에서는 도메인간 환경에서 서비스 품질보장 멀티캐스트 트리 구축을 위한 새로움 메커니즘, COINQoS 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한 서비스 품질보장을 위한 네트워크 토폴로지 정보 전송을 위하여 기존의 BGP4를 확장한 서비스 품질보장 BGP4를 추가로 제안하였다. COINQoS는 멤버 도메인으로의 경로 설정을 위하여 각 AS들이 자신들이 제공하는 서비스를 몇 개의 클래스로 구분하여 라우팅 정보를 관리하도록 하였고, 통과 도메인에서의 흐름상태 정보의 양을 줄이기 위하여 AS의 출구 노드와 QoS 요구사항을 기반으로 흐름 집단화를 수행하였다.

IP-based mobile communication system is one of the key research items in the mobile networks for a long time. But, due to some technical issues and no need of markets, it is still not full-fledged. Recently, CDMA and WCDMA service providers want to introduce IP-based network connectivity. Even though their efforts, the main network intra-structure depends on ATM or HDLC technology. This article describes a good example of commercialization of IP-based mobile communication systems. Our research is not experimental system but a in-service system - replacing the existing equipments with new IP-based systems. In this paper, we introduce IP related technologies used in our research such as IP-based ATCA(Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture) platform, HA(High Availability) redundancy, IP multicast, network redundancy techniques, multi-link bundling and IP header compression. These are already well-known to internet domain. We mix them with mobile communication systems concretely.

With the growth of the Internet, applications using the reliable multicast protocol are increasing. Two important requirements of reliable multicasting are reliability and scalability. To enhance scalability, many methods have been proposed. A typical method is a local recovery scheme. This paper proposes a new stable and effective protocol with the following features. The first is to apply the discipline of the separations of concerns to NAK message. By dividing the functions of the NAK message into the error recovery request and the NAK-suppression, each function can be optimized. Second, a local representative, which is selected gradually and distributively, executes error recovery in somewhat deterministic manner. Finally, by dynamically adjusting the TTL value of the control message, the error recovery domain can be optimized. The proposed scheme has been implemented and experimented on Network Simulator. Compared to the existing schemes, the performance results show that scalability has not only been enhanced but also error recovery time and network overhead have been reduced.

This paper presents an improved scheme for detection of the physical broadcast channel (PBCH) in long-term evolution (LTE)-based fifth-generation (5G) multimedia broadcast and multicast services (MBMS) and 5G new radio (NR) for cellular broadcast. In the time domain, by combining the correlations between the received signal and primary synchronization signal (PSS) within all SS/PBCH blocks, the frame synchronization and the start position of the SS/PBCH blocks can be obtained. In this paper, to improve the detection performance of PBCH for 5G NR, a combining scheme of PBCH signals within a frame is proposed. In addition, the performance of the proposed detection scheme is evaluated and the performance is compared with the conventional scheme for PBCH detection of LTE-based 5G MBMS. The simulation results show that the detection performance of PBCH for 5G NR is improved by combining the PBCH signals and outperforms LTE-based 5G MBMS under the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), fixed, and mobile environments.

UWSNs(Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks) need effective modeling fitted to the customized type of application and its covering area. In particular it requires an energy efficient data aggregation method for such customized application. In this paper, we envisage the application oriented model for monitoring the pollution or intrusion detection over a given underwater area. The suggested model is based on the honeycomb array of hexagonal prisms. In this model, the purpose of data aggregation is that the head node of each layer(cluster) receives just one event data arrived firstly and transfer this and its position data to the base station effectively in the manner of energy efficiency and simplicity without duplication. Here if we apply the existent data aggregation methods to this kind of application, the result is far from energy efficiency due to the complexity of the data aggregation process based on the shortest path or multicast tree. In this paper we propose three energy efficient and simple data aggregation methods in the domain of cluster and three in the domain of inter-cluster respectively. Based on the comparative performance analysis of the possible combination pairs in the two domains, we derive the best energy efficient data aggregation method for the suggested application.
