This paper is to design and implement the drone that supports a wideband multimedia communication and a long-range to save people in maritime. The drone is an Unnamed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) that is controlled by a radio wave not by people boarding the machine. We use the drone to respond quickly to the boating accident. To develop a smart drone for the high speed seamless video streaming in a long-range maritime, a necessary techniques are hardware design techniques that design structure of a drone, controlling techniques that operate a drone and communication techniques that control a drone in a long distance. In this paper, the limitations and techniques to design and implement the structure of drone supporting wideband multimedia communication for long-range maritime are explained. By expanding this communication drone network, it is aimed at improving utility of a drone.

The success of the IEEE 802.11 standard has prompted research into efficiency of the different medium access methods and their support for different traffic types. A modified version of the point coordination function (PCF) called modified PCF has been introduced as a way to improve the efficiency over the standard method. It has been shown through a simulation study and a mathematical analysis that channel utilization can be much improved compared to the standard, in case there is no so-called hidden station problem. However, under the hidden station problem, the efficiency of the modified PCF would obviously decrease. In this paper, some enhancements of the modified PCF are introduced. Firstly, we propose a retransmission process to allow frames involved in collisions to be retransmitted. Then, we propose a collision resolution mechanism to reduce the frame collision probability due to the hidden station problem. In addition, we propose a priority scheme to support prioritization for different traffic types such as interactive voice and video, and real-time data traffic in the modified PCF. To prevent the starvation of one low priority traffic, minimum transmission period is also guaranteed to each traffic type via an admission control algorithm. We study the performance of the modified PCF under the hidden station problem and the performance of the modified PCF with priority scheme through simulations. To illustrate the efficiency of the priority scheme, we therefore compare its simulation results with those of some standardized protocols: The distributed coordination function (DCF), the enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA), the PCF, and our previously proposed protocol: The modified PCF without priority scheme. The simulation results show that the increment of delay in the network due to the hidden station problem can be reduced using the proposed collision resolution mechanism. In addition, in a given scenario the modified PCF with priority scheme can provide better quality of service (QoS) support to different traffic types and also support a higher number of data stations than the previous proposals.

A system that provides a ubiquitous service is a networked system that has to overcome their circumstances that the service survivability is weak. the survivability of a networked system is defined as an ability of the system that can offer their services without interruption, regardless of whether components comprising the system are under failures, crashes, or physical attacks. This paper presents an approach that end users can obtain a quantitative evaluation of U-service survivability to reflect intended cyber attacks causing the networked system to fall into byzantine failures in addition to the definition of the survivability. In this paper, a Jini system based on wireless local area networks is used as an example for quantitative evaluation of U-service survivability. This paper also presents an continuous time markov chain (CTMC) Model for evaluation of survivability of U-service that a Jini system provides, and an approach to evaluate the survivability of the U-service as a blocking probability that end users can not access U-services.

In this paper, we propose a method based on multimodal biometrics system using the face and signature under ubiquitous computing environments. First, the face and signature images are obtained by PDA and then these images with user ID and name are transmitted via WLAN(Wireless LAN) to the server and finally the PDA receives verification result from the server. The multimodal biometrics recognition system consists of two parts. In client part located in PDA, user interface program executes the user registration and verification process. The server consisting of the PCA and LDA algorithm shows excellent face recognition performance and the signature recognition method based on the Kernel PCA and LDA algorithm for signature image projected to vertical and horizontal axes by grid partition method. The proposed algorithm is evaluated with several face and signature images and shows better recognition and verification results than previous unimodal biometrics recognition techniques.

This paper presents a dual-band mixer for multi-standards of IEEE 802.1la/b/g using a single local oscillator, so as to improve the defects of legacy systems. Those systems have duplicate local oscillators and mixers to handle dual band signals, increasing complexity of system and power loss. The proposed circuit shows 11.6 dB, 16.8 dB of conversion loss and 8.77 dBm, 12.5 dBm of IIP3(Input 3rd Intercept Point) for respective bands when the two RF inputs of 2.452 and 5.260 GHz are down-converted to the identical 356 MHz If frequency. The RF-LO isolations are measured 36 dB, 41 dB at each frequencies and over 50 dB of LO-IF isolations are achieved at all cases.

IEEE 802.lie is being proposed to improve QoS by IEEE 802.11 working group. HCCA (HCF Controlled Channel Access) a centralized polling based mechanism of IEEE 802.11e, needs a scheduling algorithm that decides on how the available radio resources are allocated to the polled STAs. In IEEE 802.l1e standard Reference Scheduler is presented. Reference Scheduler Polls all STAs in a polling list by the same interval that causes ineffectively frequent polling. It increases not only the overhead but it decreases the TXOP (Transmission Opportunity) utilization. In this paper, we propose the scheduling and admission control algorithm that poll stations depending on the MSI (Maximum Service Interval)o( stations to solve these shortcomings. In our proposed algorithm a station is polled by an interval close to its MSI, so polling overhead decrease and TXOP utilization increases than Reference Scheduler. Simulation results show that our algorithm outperforms Reference Scheduler. Our algorithm maintains higher aggregate throughput and services mere stations than Reference Scheduler.

CMOS LC VCO for tri-bind wireless LAN applications was designed in 1.8V 0.18$\mu$m CMOS process. PMOS transistors were chosen for VCO core to reduce flicker noise. The possible operation was verified for 5.8GHz band (5.725$\~$5.825GHz), 5.2GHz band (5.150$\~$5.325GHz), and 2.4GHz band (2.412$\~$2.484GHz) using the switchable L-C resonators. To linearize its frequency-voltage gain (Kvco), optimized multiple MOS varactor biasing technique was used for capacitance linearization and PLL stability improvement. VCO core consumed 2mA current and $570{\mu}m{\times}600{\mu}m$ die area. The phase noise was lower than -110dBc/Hz at 1MHz offset for tri-band frequencies.

Recently, the Fingerprint, which is one of the methods of indoor localization using WLAN, has been many studied owing to robustness about ranging error by the diffraction and refraction of radio waves. However, in the signal gathering process and comparison operation for the measured signals with the database, this method requires time consumption and computational complexity. In order to compensate for these problems, this paper presents, based on proposed modified database, WLAN indoor localization algorithm using selective operation of collected signal in real time. The proposed algorithm reduces the configuration time and the size of the data in the database through linear interpolation and thresholding according to the signal strength, the localization accuracy, while reducing the computational complexity, is maintained through selective operation of the signals which are measured in real time. The experimental results show that the accuracy of localization is improved to 17.8% and the computational complexity reduced to 46% compared to conventional Fingerprint in the corridor by using proposed algorithm.

With the proliferation of intelligent transportation system (ITS) with dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) deployment, there are various applications requiring different throughput and reliability performance. To meet the enhanced throughput requirements in newly generated applications, IEEE 802.11bd is proposed to standardize for support of enhanced throughput and latency, preserving the fairness with previously deployed WLAN V2X devices. One of the main features of IEEE 802.11 bd is 20 MHz transmission to support the high data rate. In this paper, the primary channel selection method is proposed to guarantee the fairness with frame transmissions with 10 MHz bandwith including communications in WLAN V2X devices deployed with IEEE 802.11p. Simulation shows that the proposed channel access method for 20 MHz transmission with primary selection preserves the fairness without the change of channel access method in wide-band transmission.
