  • Wireless LAN is getting more popularity and plays a main role in electronic and telecommunication field. Wireless LAN is more convenient than wired LAN when mobility is required, and are sometimes the only feasible choice. Wireless LAN can also pose a significant security risk when not properly installed and maintained. Thus, this paper studies real-time message transmission using existing mobile telecommunication network and describes considerations and procedures when introducing wireless LAN concept and wireless LAN systems. It also studies integrated wired and wireless networking including wireless LAN bridge and AP technology of International Organization for Standardization, and especially real-time dynamic image data transmission in a moving train.

  • In this paper, it is investigated to the security services and vulnerability tools of IEEE802.11 wireless LAN, and it is considered the employment state of wireless LAN AP (access point) and analyzed the state of security vulnerability. In according to this study, among wireless LAN APs, which are operated in each company or each factory, in center around industrial of Cheonan city, 50% of AP, which is used, is not operated on WEP, and therefore, it is stated the weakness of security so far. From the result of this study, in case of mid and small company, it can be distinguished the necessity of the security training for the informaton system manager.

  • Wireless LAN(wireless Local Area Network) is constructed network environment by radio in indoors or outdoors environment and that to use electric wave or light instead of wire to client such as PC(Personal Computer), notebook, PDA in hub(Hub) in technological side. Now, among IEEE 802.11 WG(Working Group), there is TGf(Task Group F) that develop standard protocol between AP's(Access Point). In this group, proposed IAPP(Inter Access Point Protocol) to secure interoperability between AP producing in different manufacturer, this offers seamless connectivity between STA by sharing Security Context information or Layer 2 forwarding information between AP without passing through re-authentication process when STAs(Station) move by protocol to secure mobility between AP that differ in equal serve network. In this paper, I wish to suggest method that change avenue of communication of message to block information leakage that can occur at security message or WEP Key transmission between above AP, and uses public key to offer wireless area security little more.

  • In this paper, we studied a new concept of wireless LAN service. Current service for wireless LAN has some weak points such as occuring a frequency shadowed area, high cost for setting a number of APs, electromagnetic interference by means of a large output transmission and weak security issues. To reduce those problems, we proposed setting antennas which are from one AP for each rooms, and designed a suitable antenna. After that we measured a PMA(Propagation Measurement & Analysis). Experimental results showed that a new concept of wireless LAN service is excellent to resolve interference and weak security issues by minimizing external propagation of a building.

  • Currently, the commercialization of the $5^{th}$ Generation (5G) service is becoming more prevalent in domestic communication network technology. This has reduced communication delay time and enabled large-capacity data transmission and video streaming services in real-time. In order to keep pace with these developments, K-water has introduced a smart process control system in water purification plants to monitor the status of the water purification process. However, since wireless networks are based on the public Long Term Evolution (LTE) network, communication delay time remains high, and high-resolution video services are limited. This is because communication networks still have a closed structure due to expense and security issues. Therefore, with 5G in its current form, it is very difficult to accommodate future services without improving the infrastructure of its communication networks. In recognition of these problems, this study implemented the authentication and management function of wireless networks on a wired network management system in the K-water Bansong water purification plant. The results confirmed that wired Local Area Network (LAN) services give a higher security performance than an expensive commercial wireless LAN system. This was achieved by using an Internet Protocol (IP) address management system of wired networks and the packet filtering function of the Layer2 (L2) switch. This study also confirmed that it is possible to create a wireless LAN service that is 3.7 times faster than the existing LTE communication network.

  • Current IEEE 802.11 standard is very vulnerable that between the AP and STA authentication and security mechanisms is widely known. Therefore, IEEE has proposed security architecture RSN (Robust Security Network) for 802.11. RSN is used the access control, authentication, and key management based on the IEEE 802.1X standard. In this paper, IEEE 802.1X or 802.11 a combination of several models proposed for the vulnerability, and session hijacking or MiM (Man-in the-Middle) attacks to respond, the authentication mechanism Was designed to the access control between the STA and the AP.

  • The previous studies focussed on the security problem and the fast re-authentication mechanism during handoffs in a single wireless LAN system. When the multiple wireless LAN systems share their network infrastructure one another, we propose an authentication mechanism allowing the subscriber to Perform the authentication procedure with the authentication server of its own wireless LAN system even in areas of other wireless LAN systems as well as in areas of its own wireless LAN system. In the proposed mechanism, the access point or the authentication server of other wireless LAN systems plays a role of the authentication agent between the subscriber and the authentication server of the subscriber's wireless LAN system. The proposed authentication mechanism is designed on the basis of the 802.1X and EAP-MD5 protocols.

  • The importance of security in WLAN(Wireless LAN) service is very critical, so IEEE organization has made the IEEE 802.1x standard. The IEEE 802.1x standard uses the EAP as authentication protocol which requires AAA(Authentication, authorization, and Accounting) server for authentication & accounting. for the reliable and scalable AAA service, the Diameter protocol has more advanced characteristics than existing radius protocol. So the Diameter protocol can be used for WLAN service provider who has large scale WLAN system and a large number of subscriber. This paper proposes the design of Diameter AAA server for the authentication and accounting of WLAN system which is adopting IEEE 802.1x standard.

  • Both security enhancement in wireless and fast access for mobility are required to employ wireless LAN in ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems). However, for the case of employing IEEE 802.11i security standard, it is known that the user authentication procedure of IEEE 802.1x and 4-way handshake procedure for stronger security enforcement may not be suitable for ITS due to its large delay. In this paper, we propose fast authentication method to resolve the above authentication delay problem, and verify its performance via simulation analysis.
