Various schemes for mobility are currently studied in ITU-T, 3GPP, IETF, and so on. Mobility support in NGN for seamless service is necessarily required. Currently proposed mechanisms are MIPV6,0, Q.MMF, and IMS. However the performance comparison of all existing schemes is not examined as yet. That is, the existing methods need to be compared according to each performance parameter. So, in this paper, we investigate and compare the performances of MIPv6,0, Q.MMF, IMS to location registration. In addition, this paper presents the performance comparison of handover latency times. For this, we use NS-2 simulator. As a result of analysis, Q.MMF shown the best performance as it is measured the minimum time and cost. And it has low handover latency time in comparison with other mechanisms.

The Accurate Ranging System for Geodetic Observation - Mobile (ARGO-M) was successfully developed as the first Korean mobile Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) system in 2012, and has joined in the International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS) tracking network, DAEdeoK (DAEK) station. The DAEK SLR station was approved as a validated station in April 2014, through the ILRS station "data validation" process. The ARGO-M system is designed to enable 2 kHz laser ranging with millimeter-level precision for geodetic, remote sensing, navigation, and experimental satellites equipped with Laser Retro-reflector Arrays (LRAs). In this paper, we present the design and development of a next generation high-repetition-rate SLR system for ARGO-M. The laser ranging rate up to 10 kHz is becoming an important issue in the SLR community to improve ranging precision. To implement high-repetition-rate SLR system, the High-repetition-rate SLR operation system (HSLR-10) was designed and developed using ARGO-M Range Gate Generator (A-RGG), so as to enable laser ranging from 50 Hz to 10 kHz. HSLR-10 includes both hardware controlling software and data post-processing software. This paper shows the design and development of key technologies of high-repetition-rate SLR system. The developed system was tested successfully at DAEK station and then moved to Sejong station, a new Korean SLR station, on July 1, 2015. HSLR-10 will begin normal operations at Sejong station in the near future.

Recently, the International Telecommunication Union allocated the 470-862 MHz band to the digital broadcasting (DB) service. Moreover, the 790-862 MHz sub-band will be allocated to the next-generation mobile system, known as the International Mobile Telecommunication - Advanced (IMT-A), and to the DB on a co-primary basis in the year 2015. Currently, two candidate technologies are available to represent the IMT-A system; the Mobile WiMAX and Long Term Evolution - Advanced (LTE-A). One of the main criteria of the IMT-A candidate is to not cause additional interference to the primary service (i.e., DB). In this paper, we address the spectrum sharing issue between the IMT-A candidates and the DB service. More precisely, we investigate the interference effect between the DB service and the mobile network, which could be either LTE-A or WiMAX. Our study proposes a spectrum sharing model to take into account the impact of interference and evaluates the spectrum sharing requirements such as frequency separation and separation distance. This model considers three spectrum sharing scenarios: co-channel, zero guard band, and adjacent channel. A statistical analysis is performed, by considering the interferer spectrum emission mask and victim receiver blocking techniques. The interference-to-noise ratio is used as an essential spectrum sharing criterion between the systems. The model considers the random distribution of the users, antenna heights, and the bandwidth effect as well as the deployment environment in order to achieve spectrum sharing. The results show that LTE-A is preferable to WiMAX in terms of having less interference impact on DB; this can eventually allow the operation of both services without performance degradation and thus will lead to efficient utilization of the radio spectrum.

Even though current LTE/LTE-A mobile networks provide enough high data rate and low latency to support conventional wireless services, to support ultra-low delay services, such as virtual reality and remote control, in the next generation mobile communication network, it is required to provide very low delay about several ms. However, in the uplink transmission of the LTE/LTE-A system, the process of scheduling grant is required to obtain uplink resources for uplink transmission from the eNB. The process of granting uplink resources from eNB brings additional fixed latency, which is one of the critical obstacles to achieve low delay in uplink transmissions. Thus, in this paper, we propose a novel uplink transmission scheme called Cut-in uplink transmission, to reduce uplink latency. We provide the performance of the proposed uplink transmission scheme through simulations and show the proposed uplink transmission scheme provides lower uplink transmission delay than conventional uplink transmission scheme in LTE/LTE-A mobile networks.

In this paper, performance evaluation of mobile access layer for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) MultiCarrier(MC)/CDMA 16 QAM system is considered to mitigate multiple access interference and enhance system channel capacity in Rayleigh wireless fading channel. Traditionally, multi-path is viewed as an undesirable feature of wireless communications. Therefore, diversity and adaptive array schemes are proposed to mitigate its effects. Recently, to increase the spectrum efficiency and the link reliability, MIMO schemes is devised to exploit multi-path in a scattering wireless channel. In particular, the channel capacity of MIMO-MC/CDMA 16 QAM system is evaluated according to Eb/No, Mc, p. From the results, in order to improve the channel capacity, the signals at various elements must be uncorrelated. And if the paths are correlated due to inappropriate spacing or mutual coupling effects, the channel capacity of MIMO-MC/CDMA 16 QAM system becomes substantially smaller.

Its main advantage: are higher radio capacity and the capacity of flexible data tranmission. And CDMA scheme is a key technology in the proposals submitted to the ITU on next generation multimedia system with integrated services, namely real-time voice services and non real-time data services. In this paper, capacity evaluation of multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO) Multi-Carrier(MC)/CDMA system is considered to mitigate multiple access interference, partial-band interference and enhance system channel capacity in wireless channel. Recently, to increase the spectrum efficiency and the link reliability, MIMO-MC/CDMA scheme is devised to exploit multi-path in a scattering wireless channel. In particular, the channel capacity of MIMO-MC/CDMA system is evaluated according to Eb/No. Mc, p and B. From the results, in order to inappropriate spacing and the signals are frequency overlapped by partial band interference, the channel capacity of MIMO-MC/CDMA system becomes substantially smaller.

object-oriented programming is used to develop next-generation telecommu- nications services running on the distributed processing environment. In order to test these services efficiently at the system-level during not only in the development phase but also in the operation phase, we define an embedded monitor service within the infrastructure to monitor the operation of the distributed programs, and describe a system-level test mechanism based on the monitor service. By separating the function of monitor server which monitors operations of objects and collects monitored data and that of tester which makes analysis and decides the sequence of test events, the invasive effect of monitoring can be minimized. At the same time, accurate diagnosis on the system can be achieve by exploiting the test mechanism. The mechanism, as a core component for the implementation of real-time fault-tol-erant systems, is applicable to general-purpose distributeded systems as well.

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is a technology that attracts attention as a next-generation digital circuit design technology, and several digital circuits have been proposed in the QCA environment. Content-addressable memory (CAM) is a storage device that conducts a search based on information stored therein and provides fast speed in a special process such as network switching. Existing CAM cell circuits proposed in the QCA environment have a disadvantage in that a required area and energy dissipation are large. The CAM cell is composed of a memory unit that stores information and a match unit that determines whether or not the search is successful, and this study proposes an improved QCA CAM cell by designing the memory unit in a multi-layer structure. The proposed circuit uses simulation to verify the operation and compares and analyzes with the existing circuit.

Wireless networks have evolved to the appearance of heterogeneous wireless networks(HetNet), where various networks provide data services with various data rates and coverage. One of technical issues for HetNet is efficient utilization of radio resources for system performance enhancement. For the next generation wireless networks, energy saving has become one of key performance indices, so energy-efficient resource management schemes for HetNet need to be developed. This paper addresses an energy-efficient scheduling for HetNet in order to improve the energy efficiency while maintaining similar system throughput as existing scheme, for which an energy-efficient scheduling that energy efficiency factor is included. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme achieves the reduction of energy consumption while admitting limited ragne of throughput degradation in comparison with the conventional proportional fair scheduling.
