  • 차세대 이동통신 서비스나 Beyond 4G 이동통신 서비스의 단말기는 유비쿼터스 정보화 사회의 도래에 발맞춰 기존의 single mode 시스템에서 탈피하여 3G LTE, Mobile WiMAX(WiBro), DMB, IEEE 802.11b/g/n 등의 다중 이동통신 서비스를 지원하는 단말기로 발전하는 추세이다. 또한 고속 데이터 전송을 위한 MIMO 및 스마트 안테나 등의 다중 접속 기능은 다중 밴드/다중 모드/다중 경로 처리 구조의 RF transceiver를 요구하고 있다. 이러한 융합 universal 단말기를 구현하기 위해서는 여러 이동통신 서비스를 지원하는 "Reconfigurability and Convergence" RF transceiver가 필요하지만 현재의 집적 기술로는 0-수 GHz에 할당되어 있는 모든 이동통신 서비스를 지원하는 단말기 구현에 제약사항이 많기 때문에 미국 및 유럽의 국외 연구기관과 기업에서는 2-3개의 선택적인 이동통신 서비스를 지원하는 RF transceiver를 개발하여 세계 시장에서 경쟁 준비를 하고 있다. 본 고에서는 차세대 이동통신 단말기의 RF transceiver 칩 셋 기술과 국내외 개발 동향에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

  • The most critical function of the Communication Based Train Control system is wayside and on-board Radio communication. Radio communication must be safely made without errors. The standards for CBTC has not been established yet, and research on Radio communication systems for use in Train control systems adopting CBTC system such as the magnetic levitation train must continue. This paper will discuss the characteristics of Radio communication technology currently used domestically such as GSM-R, IEEE 802.11, TETRA, MESH, and WiMAX/WiBro, and will investigate the potential possibility of applying them to Train control systems.

  • This letter presents the design of a novel multiband USB dongle antenna with a compact ground plane. The radiating patch is composed of a modified meander-line monopole and a shorted loop to generate a dual-broadband resonance. The proposed antenna supports WiBro, Bluetooth, WLAN, WiMAX, and S-DMB services. The total dimensions of the fabricated antenna are 10 mm ${\times}$ 45 mm ${\times}$ 1 mm, the most compact size among multiband USB dongle antennas reported to date. The measured 10 dB reflection loss bandwidths are 20.8% (2.24 GHz to 2.76 GHz) and 20.2% (4.86 GHz to 5.95 GHz). The measured peak gain is 2.97 dBi, and efficiency is higher than 58%. In addition, the radiation pattern approximates an omnidirectional pattern.

  • 2007년 10월 18일, 우리의 와이브로 기술이 ITU-R-RA-07 회의에서 OFDMA TDD WMAN이란 이름으로 IMT-2000 국제표준 중 여섯 번째 표준으로 채택되었다. 아울러 해당 주파수($2.3{\sim}2.4GHz$)가 4G 이동통신 공통대역으로 선정됨으로써 우리나라 기술이 세계로 진출할 수 있는 교두보를 마련하였다. 그에 앞서 TTA는 2006년 7월에 세계에서 두 번째로 WiMAX포럼 국제공인 인증시험소로 지정되어 내년 초부터 공식 시험인증 서비스를 시작할 예정이다. 이는 제품이 시장에 출시되기 전에 공인인증시험소를 통한 적합성 시험과 상호운용성 시험을 권고하고 있기에 국내 WiMAX 산업의 국제 경쟁력 강화를 위해 TTA와 정부, 사업자 및 장비업체들과의 공동 노력으로 이뤄낸 결과이다. 이렇듯 표준화의 중요성과 시험인증의 필요성이 날로 커져가고 있음에 본 고에서는 TTA의 표준/시험인증 현황 및 향후 추진전략에 대해 살펴보고자 한다.

  • The number of mobile devices roaming into a ubiquitous city (u-city) continues to rise as wireless systems have been widely deployed. The number of mobile devices also varies with time, and they tend to frequently change their locations. In addition, the available wireless access networks may belong to different domains, administrations, management, and internet service providers (ISPs). A fusion of overlapping heterogeneous wireless access networks (e.g., WiMax, Wi-Fi, LTE, etc.) serves the u-city in order to reach different coverage. In this context, technical challenges arise in mobility management for heterogeneous networks to realize their potential coverage and capacity benefits. This paper deals with the analysis of a decentralized mobility management support for u-City wireless network infrastructure. This scheme takes advantage of the features of the fully-distributed model of networked-based mobility management protocol to alleviate and realize the ubiquitous requirements of a u-City.

  • A compact triple-band porous electromagnetic bandgap structure-loaded coplanar-waveguide-fed wearable antenna is introduced for applications of wireless body area networks. The porous structure is aimed to create a stopband or bandgap in the electromagnetic spectrum and increase breathability. The holes in the bottom electromagnetic bandgap surface increase the inductance, which in turn increases the bandwidth. The final design resonates at three bands with impedance bandwidths of 264 MHz, 100 MHz, and 153 MHz and maximum gains of 2.18 dBi, 6.75 dBi, and 9.50 dBi at 2.45 GHz, 3.5 GHz, and 5.5 GHz, respectively. In addition, measurements indicate that the proposed design can be deformed up to certain curvature and withstand human tissue loading. Moreover, the specific absorption rate remains within safe levels for humans. Therefore, the proposed antenna can suitably operate in the industrial, scientific, and medical, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and WiMAX bands for potential application to wireless body area networks.

  • Most recent research on iterative solutions for interference alignment (IA) presents solutions assuming channel reciprocity based on the suppression of interference from undesired sources by using an appropriate decoding matrix also known as a receiver combining matrix for multiple input multiple output (MIMO) interference channel networks and reciprocal networks. In this paper, we present an alternative solution for IA by designing precoding and decoding matrices based on the concept of signal leakage (the measure of signal power that leaks to unintended users) on each transmit side. We propose an iterative algorithm for an IA solution based on maximization of the signal-to-leakage-and-noise ratio (SLNR) of the transmitted signal from each transmitter. In order to make an algorithm removing the requirement of channel reciprocity, we deploy maximization of the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) in the design of the decoding matrices. We show through simulation that minimizing the leakage in each transmission can help achieve enhanced performance in terms of aggregate sum capacity in the system.

  • 빠른 속도로 확산되고 있는 모바일 기기는 카메라, GPS, RFID 등과 같은 다양한 센서를 장착하고 Wi-Fi, WiMAX, WiBro 등의 무선 네트워크를 지원하는 형태로 발전하고 있다. 이러한 발전으로 사용자는 언제 어디서나 주변의 컴퓨팅 자원을 이용할 수 있게 되었고 모바일 기기의 서비스는 주변의 센서 또는 임베디드 컴퓨팅 장치로부터 수집되는 다양한 주변 환경 정보와 시스템 상태정보, 네트워크 상황정보 등의 디지털 정보를 이용하여 주변상황인식(context awareness)이 가능한 스마트 서비스로 발전하고 있다. 주변상황인식을 위하여 서비스는 주변에 존재하는 다양한 장치를 효율적으로 검색하고 이질적인(Heterogeneous) 장치와 정보의 표현 및 전송에 대한 호환성이 필요하다. 이러한 문제는 규격화된 프레임워크의 사용으로 해결할 수 있으며 상황정보의 관리 기능을 추가하여 서비스 개발의 생산성을 높일 수 있다 본 논문에서는 모바일 컴퓨팅 환경에서 상황정보의 제공과 사용에 적합한 프레임워크로서 MoCE(Mobile Context Exploerer) 아키텍처를 설계하였다. MoCE 는 상황정보의 수집, 변환, 분류, 통합 등의 기능을 제공하고 모바일 환경의 특성에 기인한 상황정보 발견 및 전송 프로토콜을 설계하여 사용하고 있다. 또한 Surround multiCam 서비스 예제를 구현하여 제안한 아키텍처의 안정성 및 성능을 실험하였다.

  • Voice over IP is a telephone service which sends and receives the voices through the Internet. Because the infrastructure of wireless and mobile communication networks such as 3G, Wi-Fi and WiMAX has expanded, the study about Mobile VoIP, which provides the voice service from wireless network, has been actively in progress. Since Rei 6 HSPA in 3GPP and Rev A lxEVDO in 3GPP2, VoIP through the data channel is more efficient than circuit switch. It is predicted that VoIP over 4G will be more effective and 4G mobile VoIP business will be vitalized in the future. In addition, there are businesses which offer VoWLAN by using software such as Skype and Fring. They provide services which cheapen the price of international calls and long distance calls. This paper will present the Korean and other countries' mobile VoIP trends, its classification along the network connection, the study on techniques, and conditions of mobile VoIP. It also will be described a view of terminal convergence and service convergence.
