Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are widely applied in monitoring and control of environment parameters. It is sometimes necessary to disseminate data through wireless links after they are deployed in order to adjust configuration parameters of sensors or distribute management commands and queries to sensors. Several approaches have been proposed recently for data dissemination in WSNs. However, none of these approaches achieves both high efficiency and low complexity simultaneously. To address this problem, cluster-tree based network architecture, which divides a WSN into hierarchies and clusters is proposed. Upon this architecture, data is delivered from base station to all sensors in clusters hierarchy by hierarchy. In each cluster, father broadcasts data to all his children with instantly decodable network coding (IDNC), and a novel scheme targeting to maximize total transmission gain (MTTG) is proposed. This scheme employs a new packet scheduling algorithm to select IDNC packets, which uses weight status feedback matrix (WSFM) directly. Analysis and simulation results indicate that the transmission efficiency approximate to the best existing approach maximum weight clique, but with much lower computational overhead. Hence, the energy efficiency achieves both in data transmission and processing.

This paper analyzes the throughput of DCF protocol at the MAC layer in the 802.11a wireless LAN. The throughput of DCF protocol is related on probability of backoff, depends on retransmission of each terminal. This paper applied to nonmarcov discrete model for each terminal BER in the base station versus the packet throughput is progressing with the data rate of 6,12,24,54 Mbps, We find the fact that the less the data rate be the higher the throughput. We also find from the throughput calculation by means of traffic intensity in OFDM wireless LAN.

In this paper, in order to improve the performance of TCP short traffic services in wireless Internet environments, the Split-ACKs(SPACK) scheme is proposed. In wireless networks, unlike wired networks, packet losses will occur more often due to high bit error rates. Therefore, each packet loss over wireless links results in congestion control procedure of TCP being invoked at the source. This causes severs end-to-end performance degradation of TCP. In this paper, to alleviate the TCP performance, the SPACK method split acknowledgement packets in the base station is proposed. Using computer simulation the performance of TCP using SPACK is analyzed and shows better performance than traditional TCP protocol.

New emerging wireless broadband internet can make many broadband multimedia services. The networked intelligent mobile robot service is one of the new services. In the networked robot control, both the on-line real-time control and the reliability of control data transmission are very important. Considering the real-time control and data reliability, an efficient transmission method based on UDP protocol is proposed. The proposed method allocates the priority to the robot control data and the transmission of the robot data at the base station is carried out in duplicate manner. NS-2 simulation results show that the proposed scheme has a very low packet delay and low packet errors.

This paper proposes a multichannel random access channel allocation scheme for multihop cellular networks to guarantee the stable throughput of a random access. The fundamental contribution is a mathematical formula for an optimal partition ratio of shared random access channels between a base station and a relay station. In addition, the proposed scheme controls the retransmission probability of random access packets under heavy load condition. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can guarantee the required random access channel utilization and packet transmission delay even if the a random access packet arrival rate is higher than 0.1.

This paper presents the unified user equipment (UE) baseband modulation and demodulation (modem) hardware platform architecture to support multiple radio access technologies. In particular, this platform selectively supports two systems; one is HEDGE system, which is the combination of third generation partnership project (3GPP) Release 7 high speed packet access evolution (HSPA+) and global system for mobile communication (GSM)/general packet radio service (GPRS)/enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE), while the other is LEDGE system, which is the combination of 3GPP Release 8 long term evolution (LTE) and GSM/GPRS/EDGE. This is done by applying the flexible pin multiplexing scheme to a hardwired pin mapping process. On the other hand, to provide stable connection, high portability, and high debugging ability, the stacking structure is employed. Here, a layered board architecture grouped by functional classifications is applied instead of the conventional one flatten board. Based on this proposed configuration, we provide a framework for the verification step in wireless cellular communications. Also, modem function/scenario test and inter-operability test with various base station equipments are verified by system requirements and scenarios.

TCP works well in wired networks where packet losses mainly occur due to congestion in data traffic. In wireless networks TCP does not differentiate packet losses from transmission errors or from congestion, which could lead to degrade the network performance. Several methods have been proposed to improve TCP performance over wireless links. Among them the Snoop module working at the base station is the popular method. In this paper, it is shown that the performance of Snoop largely depends upon the transmission link errors and the amount of data traffic. Also, our research shows that the local retransmission timeout value of Snoop can affect throughput. From the simulation results we suggest how to effectively use the Snoop algorithm considering data traffic and transmission link errors. It is expected that the proposed adaptive method will contribute to improving the network performance reducing the burden of the processes for data traffic.

Femtocells are cellular access points that connect to a mobile operator's network using residential DSL or cable broadband connections. They have been developed to work with a range of different cellular standards including CDMA, GSM and UMTS. Like legacy base station, the frequency accuracy and phase alignment is necessary for ensuring the quality of service (QoS) for applications such as voice, real-time video, wireless hand-off, and data over a converged access medium at the femtocell. But, the GPS has some problem to be used at the femtocell, because it is difficult to set-up, depends on the satellite condition, and very expensive. So, some techniques are discussed to alternate with the legacy GPS system. NTP, PTP, Synchronous Ethernet use the ethernet to synchronize distributed clocks in packet networks. AGPS support reliable position information than the legacy GPS in poor signal conditions. But, These method also have some problems. So, hybrid timing method like A-GPS+PTP and TV+GPS was developed to make up the weak point of GPS. This paper introduces the each method and compare each other and y propose much better solution for timing synchronization at the Femtocell
