Though services requiring Quality-of-Service (QoS) guarantees such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) have been widely deployed on the internet, most of internet backbone networks, unfortunately, do not distinguish them from the best-effort services. Thus estimating the effective capacity meaning the traffic volume that the backbone networks maximally accommodate with keeping QoS guarantees for the services is very important for Internet Service Providers. This paper proposes a test-bed based on ns-2 to evaluate the effective capacity of backbone networks and then estimates the effective capacity of an experimental backbone network using the test-bed in terms of the service standard of the VoIP service. The result showed that the effective capacity of the network is estimated as between 12% and 55% of its physical capacity, which is depending on the maximum delay guarantee probability, and strongly affected by not only the type of offered workload but also the quality standard. Especially, it demonstrated that in order to improve the effective capacity the maximum end-to-end delay requirement of the VoIP service needs to be loosened in terms of the probability to guarantee.

IEEE 802.16e standard, a kind of WMAN standard, was established to support data services with cheaper cost to mobile users than traditional mobile communications system and wireless LAN system can do. In this paper, we propose an uplink QoS packet-scheduler for VoIP service which can be installed in IEEE 802.16 system and evaluate its performance with NS-2 network simulator. The proposed QoS packet-scheduler consists of three procedures: determining scheduler interval, determining the amount of resource assignment, and deciding which mobile station the base station should serve first among multiple mobile stations. According to numerical results, the proposed QoS packet-scheduler can provide more increased system capacity by 220% than UGS service scheme does and by 25 % than ertPS service scheme does.

LTE 이동통신서비스는 네트워크의 속도와 용량을 증가시킨 4세대 이동통신기술을 향항 3G 이동통신기술의 진화형 서비스로, 유럽주도로 개발된 GSM-WCDMA 기반기술로 발전된 서비스이다. 다만, 현재 국내에서 제공되고 있는 LTE는 3GPP에서 정하고 있는 4G 이동통신기술의 기술규격을 충족시키지 못하기 때문에 본격적인 4세대 이동통신(LTE-Advanced)과의 구별을 위해 3.9G 서비스라고 불리기도 한다. LTE는 VoIP, 비디오 스트리밍, 음악 다운로드, mobile TV 등 다양한 응용서비스의 제공이 가능하다. 국내에서 제공되는 LTE는 음성서비스는 3G 이동통신망을 통해 음성채널을 구성하고, 데이터 서비스만 LTE 이동통신망을 통해 제공하는 방식으로 제공되고 있지만, 향후에는 VoLTE 기술을 통해 음성서비스 제공하면서 LTE가 이동통신서비스의 주요 트랜드가 될 것으로 기대하고 있다. 하지만, 이러한 only LTE 서비스가 제공되는 경우, 현재의 법체계 하에서 몇몇 이슈가 발생할 것으로 예상된다. 첫째, VoLTE 서비스의 역무 및 해당 통신사업자 지위문제이다. 현행 전기통신사업법에서는 VoIP인 인터넷전화에 대해서 PC를 이용하지 않고 서비스가 제공되는 경우에는 기간통신역무로, PC를 통한 소프트폰 형식의 서비스에 대해서는 부가통신역무로 규정하고 있기 때문이다. 둘째, 기존 3G 이동통신 단말기의 가입자인증 모듈(USIM)의 이동성 보장 여부로서, 현재의 법체계는 USIM 잠금장치 해제(USIM unlock)를 3G 이동통신에 대해서 적용하도록 하고 있기 때문에, 이를 LTE서비스에도 적용할 수 있는지에 대한 논란이 일고 있다. 이에 본고에서는 LTE 서비스의 기술적 특징과 다양한 법제도적 이슈에 대해서 살펴보았다.

Mesh WLANs, which consist of wireless mesh routers connecting each other in a mesh topology and self-operate after their autoconfiguration, have several advantages in convenience, swiftness and flexibility of deployment and operation over existing WLANs the expansions of which are done by connecting the APs with wires. However, many technical issues still remain to be solved. Among them, network performance degradations due to the interference between the adjacent hops in multi-hop mesh WLANs, and the reusability of the existing wireless network protocols are critical problems to be answered. This work evaluates the VoIP support performance of IEEE 802.11a/g-based mesh WLANs with multiple wireless interfaces with simulations. The results show that there exit an unfairness in VoIP packet delay performances among mobile routers located at different hops, and that although the capacity of the admitted calls can be increased by increasing the size of voice packet payload it is far less than the expected one. This suggests that the existing 802.11 MAC protocols have their limitation when applied in mesh networks and their enhancement or even a newer one nay be required.

VoIP기술의 확산과 그에 따른 IP기반의 망을 포함한 packet, Multimedia서비스를 제공하는 서비스가 늘고있다. 그러나 실시한 서비스를 필요로 하는 이 서비스의 경우에는 그에 따르는 경로에 확실한 대역폭의 조건이 요구되고 있다. 하지만 best-effort방식을 사용하는 기존의 망에서는 대역폭의 확실한 보장이 이루지기 힘들다. 하지만 MPLS와 트래픽 엔지니어링 기술의 발전으로 다중경로 패킷 전달 및 동적인 부하 제어가 가능하게 되었다. 곧 차별화된 서비스에 따른 대역폭의 할당이 이루어질 수 있다. 동적인 부하 제어는 네트웍의 상태를 고려하여 경로간의 부하를 조절함으로써 네트웍의 효율성을 높일 수 있으나, 상태 정보의 시간차이에 의해 불안정한 상태에 이르기 쉽다. 본 논문에서는 차별화된 서비스를 하기 위해 부하의 할당을 안정적으로 변화시키면서도 효율적인 부하로 용량에 맞게 흐름을 받아들이고 패킷을 전송하는 기법을 제안한다.

This paper proposes silence drop first(SDF) active buffer management algorithm to increase the voice capacity when silence suppression is used. This algorithm finds and drops silence packet rather than voice packet in the queue for resolving buffer overflow of queue. Simulations with voice codec of G.729A and G.711 are performed. By using proposed SDF algorithm, the voice capacity is increased by 84.21% with G.729A and 38.46% with G.711. Further more, SDF algorithm reduces the required link capacity and loosens the silence packet inter-arrival time limit to provide target voice quality compared with that of conventional algorithms.

As the demand for broadband multimedia including the Internet explosively increases, the advancement of the subscriber network is becoming the biggest issue in the telecommunication industry due to the surge of data traffic caused by the emergence of new services such as smart phone, IPTV, VoIP, VOD and cloud services. In this paper, we have developed WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing)-PON(passive optical network) based on the 1-Gigabit Reach Externder (RE) technique to reduce optical core. Particularly, in order to strengthen the market competitiveness, we considered low cost, miniaturization, integration technique, and low power of optical parts. In addition, we have developed a batch system by integrating all techniques for reliability, remote management through the development of transmission distance extension and development of capacity increase of optical line by using RE technology in existing PON network. Based on system interworking with existing commercial 1G PON devices, it can be worthy of achievement of wide nationalization and optical core reduction by using this developed system. Based on these results, we are studying development of 10G PON technology.

As the various A/V devices and home networks are delivered to users, home networks are changing to an entertainment network. It is expected that the required network bandwidth and the amount of usage of media content in home entertainment networks will be increased. Although the access networks and home networks becoming a high speed network, there remains the problems for QoS-guaranteed media content transfer in home networks. Also, in the home network, there can be network traffic caused by applications like video conferencing, video telephone, and VoIP(voice over IP) as well as inner network traffic of home network. Since media content transfer requires the real-time delivery, it is very important and basic requirement that is to transfer media content to A/V device user wants while keeping the media quality. Even though there are many middleware protocol for home networking, they provide basic device discovery and control or simple functions for QoS-guaranteed media content transfer that are not enough to provide QoS-guaranteed media transfer service that user wants. Thus, in this paper, we propose the technique based on UPnP(universal plug and play) protocol for QoS-guaranteed media content transfer in the home network. The proposed technique is compatible with UPnP and can be used with UPnP as additional functions. In this paper, we utilize VideoLAN application to verify the proposed technique. We add the additional modules that support the proposed technique's function to VideoLAN and we verify the its functions through various test scenarios.
