It is noticeable that the number of newly registered Android applications increases rapidly. Such a recent trend indicates the Android platform is spreading globally. The ongoing platform upgrade might be one of the main reasons of the popularity of the Android mobile platform. Android platform 4.0 or later provides WiFi-Direct APIs that allow smart devices to communicate with each other without intermediate media. In this paper, we propose design and implementation techniques for small-scale impromptu meeting applications based on WiFi-Direct. The proposed meeting application can be used in a situation when one is difficult to connect the Internet. It also provides meeting data sharing capabilities, noting functionality, real-time remote screen control, and grouping of meeting participants. Our development results have demonstrated that the Android WiFi-Direct APIs can be effectively applied to impromptu conferencing mobile applications.

Improvement of performances of potable communication devices such as laptops, tablets, and smart-phones enables people to do group meetings in any place. However, even though group members in a meeting locate close, data or information to be shared in the group are exchanged through the cellular networks. This increases unnecessary traffic loads in the wireless/backbone networks and as consequence it increase delays in communications. To resolve the problem, an android-based application is developed in this paper. The application utilizes Wi-Fi Direct so that all members in the meeting can direct exchange materials for the meeting without using cellular networks.

As people are taking part in more versatile social activities, it becomes more frequent and more important for people to share personal information each other in appropriate level. Unfortunately, although the rapid spread of smart devices and advance of network technologies have brought many applications for information sharing into our hands, they do not provide effective mechanism for sharing personal information on collocated people. In this paper, we introduce an android application named WhoAmI which provides the functionality of sharing personal information on nearby users over Wi-Fi Direct as well as Wi-Fi network environment. According to the predefined access level such as business, community or friend, WhoAmI naturally provides profile information to accessible users. In addition, the information such as music, photo, movie can be effectively shared through the application.

컴퓨터의 발달이 가속화됨에 따라 인터넷은 더 이상 PC만의 전유물이 아닌 다양한 종류의 기기들에 접목되어 작업 능률을 높이고 있다. 이에 따른 장비 간 연결성을 높인 무선 네트워킹 분야도 비약적으로 발달되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 컴퓨터 주변 기기 중 스마트 프린팅 서비스에 초점을 맞추어 그 활용성을 높이고자한다. 시중의 스마트 프린터는 Wi-Fi direct로 연결된 PC나 노트북 등의 프린트가 손쉽게 가능하다. 하지만 Wi-Fi/Wi-Fi direct 연결이 되는 PC가 아니거나, 프린터와 PC가 유무선 연결이 되어있지 않은 환경에서는 사용하기 어렵다는 큰 한계점을 안고 있다. 이러한 점을 해소하고자 네트워크 내의 인쇄 작업 환경이 아니더라도, PC-스마트폰-프린터와 같은 구조를 통해 스마트폰이 AP 역할을 하여 사용자가 원하는 PC의 파일을 간편하게 프린트 가능한 환경을 조성하고자 한다. 즉, 언제 어디서나 어떠한 프린터와도 간접 1:1:1 연결을 통한 즉시 인쇄 서비스 구축을 목적으로 한다.

In this paper, a P2P Standard Group Formation (P2P-SGF) method in Wi-Fi Direct is presented to provide direct communication services between Internet-of-Things (IoT) gateways. Generally, network traffic congestion and speed reduction problems are caused when transmitting mass data as well as measured data from many sensors between IoT gateways via an Access Point (AP). For solving these problems, it is required to implement Wi-Fi Direct efficiently transmitting mass data between IoT gateways without passing through the AP. The implemented P2P-SGF method basically performs Discovery, GO (Group Owner) Negotiation, WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) Provisioning, and Address Configuration. Especially, it supports the DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) service function for sharing mass data between IoT gateways. Some experimental results verify that it can successfully share large video files.

When disasters such as earthquake, flood, typhoon, fire and terrorism are occurred a video management system is required which can shoot video on the disaster site, and send it to a server located in the command center that can grasp at a glance the site conditions. In this paper, to know the performance elements information needed to construct the video management system. we presented a method of configuring an ad hoc network based on Wi-Fi direct communication. And we also evaluated the performance through built of environment for the video management system. The evaluated performance test items are 'packet flow tests according to the video compression ratios and the image sizes', 'packet flow tests according to the distance and traffic tests', 'packet flow tests according to whether LOS or not', and 'performance test of scenarios'.

The existing screen mirroring systems are vulnerable to packet loss and inefficient for mobile devices with limited energy capacity. To overcome these problems, we propose a packet loss robust and energy efficient screen mirroring system for mobile device. The proposed system employs systematic Raptor codes for a forward error correction method to mitigate the video quality degradation that is caused by packet loss over wireless networks. For the mobile device energy saving, the proposed system shapes the screen mirroring traffic and adjusts the Raptor encoding parameters. In this paper, the proposed system is fully implemented on single board computers and is examined in a real Wi-Fi Direct network.

WiFi Direct (WD) is a state of the art technology for a Device-to-Device (D2D) communication in 802.11 networks. The performance of the WD system can be significantly affected by some key factors such as the type of application, specifications of MAC and PHY layer parameters, and surrounding environment etc. It is, therefore, important to develop a system model that takes these factors into account. In this paper, we focus on investigating the design parameters of the PHY layer that could maximize the efficiency of the WD 802.11 system. For this purpose, a basic theoretical model is formulated for a WD network under a 2x2 Multiple In Multiple Out (MIMO) TGn channel B model. The design level parameters such as input symbol rate and antenna spacing, as well as the effects of the environment, are thoroughly examined in terms of path gain, spectral density, outage probability and Packet Error Rate (PER). Thereafter, a novel adaptive algorithm is proposed to choose optimal parameters in accordance with the Quality of Experience (QoE) for a targeted application. The simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms the standard method thereby achieving an optimal performance in an adaptive manner.
