In this paper, we investigate the most commonly adopted networking technology for Network Centric Warfar (NCW), namely Link-16 in the perspectives of physical, data link, and network layers (specifically, strategic message exchanges) and derive its merits with some constraints therein. Furthermore, we perform a quantitative evaluation on its communication capacity, focusing on whether Link-16 can indeed meet the capacity requirements for major operations, based on the time slot structure, NPG, and multi-netting concepts.

We proposed to a new method of the aperture coupled microstrip antenna with T-shaped feeding slot. We analyzed method of enhancing the bandwidth of the antenna using FDTD. And the antenna parameters are optimized to get maximum bandwidth. We also calculated the progress process of waves and the distribution of electric field in the time domain. We also calculated return loss, VSWR, input impedance, radiation pattern in the frequency domain by Fourier transforming the time domain results, respectively. It was found that the bandwidth of this antenna changes length and width of the patch, length and width of the slot, length of T-shaped feedline, position of the offset. Measured % bandwidth was 49.2 % in the center frequency 2.5 GHz. These results were in relatively food accordance with calculated values.

In this paper, a NeuroFuzzy controller (NFC) with enhanced packet reservation multiple access (PRMA) protocol for QoS-guaranteed multimedia communication systems is proposed. The enhanced PRMA protocol adopts mini-slot technique for reducing contention cost, and these minislot are futher partitioned into multiple MAC regions for access requests coming from users with their respective QoS (quality-of-service) requirements. And NFC is designed to properly determine the MAC regions and access probability for enhancing the PRMA efficiency under QoS constraint. It mainly contains voice traffic estimator including the slot information estimator with recurrent neural networks (RNNs) using real-time recurrent learning (RTRL), and fuzzy logic controller with Mandani- and Sugeno-type of fuzzy rules. Simulation results show that the enhanced PRMA protocol with NFC can guarantee QoS requirements for all traffic loads and further achieves higher system utilization and less non real-time packet delay, compared to previously studied PRMA, IPRMA, SIR, HAR, and F2RAC.

This paper presents a coordinator-based TDMA reader protocol that can avoid the reader collision in a passive RFID system. In the proposed protocol, the coordinator can not only minimize the number of empty slots by efficiently allocating slots to readers incoming in Poisson distribution, but reduce latency time through the limited frame size. The proposed protocol can be implemented in either mobile or fixed mode through the slot structure to be described in the context. The simulation results show it works as suggested and the frame size limitation as well as the statistical distribution of incoming readers has a great impact on the overall slots and the average latency time.

In this paper, a channel access control algorithm and a dynamic slot allocation algorithm are proposed for rt_VBR services and ABR services in the wireless ATM networks. In the proposed algorithm, rt_VBR terminals that require real-time services transmit a reservation request packet by a RAS minislot. An rt_VBR terminal, which transmitted the reservation request packet, transmits the dynamic parameters by DPS minislot without contention. On the other hand, ABR terminals that have a non-real-time traffic burst transfer a reservation request packet with contention basis. Based on the received dynamic parameters, the base station scheduler allocates uplink data slots as well as DPS minislot into rt_VBR terminals.

The term parking management system usually refers to the custom built hardware intensive systems installed in building and malls. However, there are many places where such expensive solutions cannot be installed due to various reasons, like cost and urgent/temporary setup requirements. This project focuses on developing a parking management system based on image processing to detect vacant parking slot in an area where automated systems are not installed. Camera images of the parking area are subjected to image processing algorithm which marks virtual slots in the area and extracts occupancy information to guide the incoming drivers about availability and position of vacant spaces. The application consists of two interfaces: one for the guidance of the incoming drivers and the other one for the administrator. The later interface also informs the administrator if a car is not parked properly in the virtual slot. This parking system would reduce the stress and time wastage associated with car parking and would make the management of such areas less costly.

In recent year, the cores of ubiquitous environment are sensor networks and RFID systems. RFID system transmits the electronic information of the tag to the reader by using RF signal. Collision happens in RFID system when there are many matched tags, and it degrades the tag identification performance. Such a system needs algorithm which is able to arbitrate tag collision. This paper suggests a hybrid method which reduces collision between the tags, and can quickly identify the tag. The proposed method operates based on certainty, which takes an advantage of tree based algorithm, and to reduce collision it selects transmission time slot by using tag ID. The simulation results show the suggested method has higher performance in the number of queries and collision compared to other tree based and hybrid algorithms.

IEEE 802.15.4 기반의 무선 센서 네트워크는 다양한 종류의 센서들로 구성된다. 이러한 센서들은 각각 다양한 주기들로 중심 노드에게 데이터를 전송하고자 한다. 슈퍼프레임마다의 주기적인 전송을 위해 IEEE 802.15.4에서는 GTS(Guaranteed Time Slot) 메커니즘을 제공한다. 하지만 하나의 센서 네트워크에서 슈퍼프레임 길이는 모두 동일하기 때문에 이보다 긴 주기를 갖는 센서들은 GTS를 할당받고도 데이터를 전송하지 않는 경우가 발생할 수 있다. 때문에 IEEE 802.15.4의 GTS 메커니즘에서는 낮은 사용 효율의 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제를 보완하고자 주기적 GTS 할당 방법(PGTS: Periodic Guaranteed Time Slot)을 제안한다. 주기적 GTS 할당 방법에서는 단말들이 GTS 요청 시 자신의 데이터 전송 주기를 PAN 코디네이터에게 보고하고, PAN 코디네이터는 이를 고려하여 단말의 주기에 따른 슈퍼프레임에서만 GTS 구간을 할당한다. 이를 통해 주기적 GTS 할당 방법은 기존 GTS 할당 방법보다 대역의 낭비를 줄여 GTS를 효율적으로 사용가능하도록 하고 더 많은 수의 단말들에게 GTS를 배정할 수 있게 한다. 본 논문에서는 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 주기적 GTS 할당 방법이 IEEE 802.15.4의 GTS 할당 방법보다 효율적이며 더 많은 수의 단말에게 GTS를 할당할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

To improve $B_1$ homogeneity in high field MRI, the RF power is applied to the transmit array coil elements sequentially in the time-multiplexed way. Since only a single coil element is activated in a time-multiplexing slot, the global standing wave formation in the human body is greatly suppressed. The time-multiplexing slot width is on the order of micro seconds, hence, high-order-harmonic slices can be placed far from the transmit coil and simultaneous multiple slice selection can be avoided. The $B_1$ homogeneities of a birdcage coil and an eight-channel transmit array coil have been compared through finite difference time domain simulations. The simulation results indicate that the proposed technique can reduce the peak-to-peak $B_1$ inhomogeneity down to one fourth of the transmission with a birdcage coil on the central plane of the human head model at 3 T. The mimicking experiments at 3 T, eight separate experiments with a single coil element activated and image reconstruction by combining the eight images, also show promising results. It is expected that the proposed technique has some advantages over other $B_1$ improving methods in real practice since simple RF switching circuitries are only necessary and electromagnetic coupling between the coil elements is out of concern in its realization.

In this paper, an SS-RRA protocol that is based on Code Division Multiple Access is proposed and analyzed under the integrated voice and data traffic load. The backward logical channels consist of slotted time division frames with multiple spreading codes per slot. The protocol uses a reservation mechanism for the voice traffic, and a random access scheme for the data traffic. A discrete-time, discrete-state Markov chain is used to evaluate the performance. The numerical results show that the performance can be significantly improved by a few distinct spreading codes.
