In this paper, we propose a novel equalization on-channel repeater (OCR) with a feedback interference canceller (FIC) to relay terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting signals in single frequency networks. The proposed OCR not only has high output power by cancelling the feedback signals caused by insufficient antenna isolation through the FIC, but also shows better output signal quality than the conventional OCR by removing multipath signals existing between the main transmitter and the OCR through an equalizer. In addition, computer simulations and laboratory test results demonstrate that the proposed OCR successfully cancels feedback signals and compensates channel distortions and provides a higher quality transmitting signal with higher output power than conventional OCRs.

본 논문에서는 이중 홉 무선 네트워크에서 누적분포함수(cumulative distribution function) 기반 중계기 선택 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 수신 신호대잡음비(signal-to-noise ratio)의 누적분포함수 값에 따라 중계기를 선택한다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 기법의 중계기 공정성에 대한 분석을 통해 제안된 기법이 엄격하게 공정성을 달성할 수 있음을 보인다. 그리고 모의 실험에서는 round-robin 기법과 기회적 중계 기법을 제안된 기법과 총 타임 슬롯에 대한 각 중계기별 타임 슬롯 분배율, 평균 공정성, 불능확률 비교를 통해 제안된 기법이 엄격하게 공정성을 달성하는 것과, 기회적 중계 기법과 거의 동일한 기울기로 불능확률이 떨어지는 것을 확인한다.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid cooperative scheme to improve the secrecy rate for a cooperative network in presence of multiple relays. Each relay node transmits the mixed signal consisting of weighted source signal and intentional noise. The problem of power allocation, the joint design of beamforming and jamming weights are investigated, and an iterative scheme is proposed. It is demonstrated by the numerical results that the proposed hybrid scheme further improves secrecy rate, as compared to traditional cooperative schemes.

VANET은 인프라의 도움 없이 차량 간 무선 에드 혹 네트워크를 구축하는 기술이다. VANET은 MANET과는 달리 고속의 이동성, 높은 차량 밀도, 잦은 토폴로지 변화등의 특징으로 인해 잦은 네트워크 단절과 네트워크 부하 증가 등의 문제들을 가진다. 특히 네트워크 단절은 VANET에서 응급메세지 전파 시간 지연 및 네트워크 연결성 저하의 주요 요인이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 네트워크 단절을 해결하기 위해 적응형 전달노드 검색(ARNS : Adaptive Relay Node Search) 브로드캐스팅 알고리즘을 제안한다. ARNS는 네트워크 단절 발생 시에만 선택적으로 위험지역 외의 영역에서 노드를 재 검색함으로 낮은 네트워크 부하와 낮은 네트워크 단절율을 가진다. 또한 ARNS은 짧은 전송거리와 낮은 차량밀도에도 네트워크 단절에 강한 특성을 지닌다.

Low frequency (400 kHz) Ferrite ICP has been proposed for large area processing. Because the coupling coefficient is close to 1, the transformer matching can be adapted to Ferrite ICP. The transformer matching system is simple. In this paper the new matching system by controlling the turns of transformer using relays is proposed for impedance matching. We developed a simple matching system and characterized it when the turns were changed. It was observed that the 2-channel relay is available for transformer matching.

Solar-powered wireless sensor nodes can use extra energy to obtain additional data to increase the precision. However, if the amount of data sensed is increased indiscriminately, the overhead of relay nodes may increase, and their energy may be exhausted. In this paper, we introduce a sensing and compression rate selection scheme to increase the amount of data obtained while preventing energy exhaustion. In this scheme, the neighbor nodes of the sink node determine the limit of data to be transmitted according to the allocated energy and their descendant nodes, and the other nodes select a compression algorithm appropriate to the allocated energy and the limitation of data to be transmitted. A simulation result verifies that the proposed scheme gathers more data with a lower number of blackout nodes than other schemes. We also found that it adapts better to changes in node density and the amount of energy harvested.

We consider a two-hop multiple-relay network implemented with opportunistic decode-and-forward cooperative strategy, where the first hop and second hop links experience different fading (Rayleigh and Rician). We derive the exact expressions of end-to-end outage probability and analyze the approximate results in high signal-to-noise ratio region. The analysis shows that the same diversity order can be achieved even in different mixed fading environments. Simulation results are provided to verify our analysis.

Ethernet is being deployed in metropolitan area networks (MANs) as a lower-cost alternative to SONET-based infrastructures. MANs are usually required to support common communication services, such as voice and frame relay, based on legacy synchronous TDM technology in addition to asynchronous packet data transport. This paper addresses the clock synchronization problem that arises when transporting synchronous services over an asynchronous packet infrastructure, such as Ethernet. A novel algorithm for clock synchronization is presented combining time-stamp methods used in the network time protocol (NTP) with signal processing techniques applied to measured packet interarrival times. The algorithm achieves the frequency accuracy, stability, low drift, holdover performance, and rapid convergence required for viable emulation of TDM circuit services over Ethernet.

Ultra wideband(UWB) technologies have been developed to exploit a new spectrum resource in substances and to realize ultra-high-speed communication, high precision geo-location, and other applications. The energy of UWB signal is extremely spread from near DC to a few GHz. This means that the interference between conventional narrowband systems and UWB systems is inevitable. However, the interference effects had not previously been studied from UWB wireless systems to conventional wireless systems sharing the frequency bands such as Broadcasting system. This paper experimentally evaluates the interference from two kinds of UWB sources, namely a orthogonal frequency division Multiplex UWB source and an impulse radio UWB source, to a Broadcasting transmission system. The receive power degradations of broadcasting system are presented. From these experimental results, we show that in all practical cases UWB system can coexist 35 m distance in-band broadcasting network.

In this paper, we propose a novel cooperative routing protocol (NCRP) for wireless networks. The proposed protocol uses cooperative transmission to improve end-to-end outage probability. The broadcast nature ensures that the destination can receive a packet from the source or from the relays and if it cannot correctly decode the packet, the successful relays will start a retransmission. The NCRP protocol can skip some transmissions from the intermediate relays, thereby reducing the total power consumption. Theoretical results are derived and verified by simulation results.
