본 논문에서는 무선 ATM 망에서 VBR(Variable Bit Rate) 트래픽의 QoS(Quality of Service)를 보장하고 무선 채널의 효율성을 극대화 할 수 있는 새로운 동적 슬롯 할당 알고리즘인 NDSA(Neural Dynamic Slot Assignment)를 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘에서는 ATM 셀 헤더 부분의 GFC(Generic Flow Control) 필드 상에 단말기의 버퍼 상태와 셀 발생률 변화를 부호화 하여 piggybacking 하는 in-band 방식을 채택하였으며 다음 프레임에 할당할 슬롯의 갯수를 기존 방식과는 달리 신경회로망을 이용하여 유동적으로 조절하여 할당함으로써 단말기의 셀 손실이나 지연에 대한 QoS를 보장하고 채널 이용 효율을 높일 수 있었다. 제안된 알고리즘은 BONeS tool을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통하여 기존의 방식과 비교 분석한 결과 그 정당성을 확인하였다.

Traditional Internet services provide the same level of qualify to all users without considering about their application's QoS (quality of service) requirements. Because the wireless and Internet technologies are evolving rapidly, the powerful mobile devices are more widely used. Therefore, the new applications such as DMB (digital multimedia broadcasting), VoD (video on demand), telemedicine, and etc. demand appropriate QoS and host mobility. To satisfy free mobility and QoS, we deploy Diffserv (differentiated services) model to the mobile IPv6 networks. We propose the operational procedures and cost analyzing models for providing an MN's mobility and QoS. Also its performance is presented by cost analyzing and the future works are described.

Heterogeneous network (HetNet) with the various types of cells, e.g., with the different cell size and transmit power, has been introduced to improve the cell coverage and areal capacity in cellular mobile communication system. In this paper, we consider a practical situation in which all cells share the same wireless resource while some of them have a limited backhaul capacity. More specifically, we formularize a cell association problem that utilizes the minimum wireless resource while satisfying the quality of service (QoS) of all users in terms of their transmission time constraint, and propose a distributed algorithm to find the optimal solution. In the event of bottleneck at the backhaul link in some small cells, the proposed algorithm off-loads some users to the adjacent cell with the less congested backhaul capacity. Finally, we verify that the proposed algorithm supports the more numbers of users to satisfy the specified level of QoS than the conventional user association scheme under the limited access and backhaul capacities.

For recent years, the environment of use on internet has been changed from the wired internet access to the wireless internet access increasingly, and the use of real time application data has been increased. Therefore the research and evolution of wireless network for providing of user's mobility and QoS at the same time must be essential. IETF already proposed Mobile IPv6 for providing mobility and RSVP for QoS through resource reservation. These future are expected to be used not only wired network but also wireless network. But there are not yet proposed the integration and efficient interworking of two mechanism. For the solution of problem on efficient interworking issue, for instance signaling overhead and reservation delay increasing due to often handoff, this paper first proposed to use of IETF Cellular IP based on Mobile IPv6 for wireless network model with fast mobility and a improved RSVP mechanism using the flow label field in IPv6 header.

In this paper, we first survey cross-layer architectures for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs). Afterwards, we propose a novel cross-layer architecture for QoS provisioning in clustered and multi-hop based WMSNs. The proposed architecture provides support for multiple network-based applications on a single sensor node. For supporting multiple applications on a single node, an area in memory is reserved where each application can store its network protocols settings. Furthermore, the proposed cross-layer architecture supports heterogeneous flows by classifying WMSN traffic into six traffic classes. The architecture incorporates a service differentiation module for QoS provisioning in WMSNs. The service differentiation module defines the forwarding behavior corresponding to each traffic class. The forwarding behavior is primarily determined by the priority of the traffic class, moreover the service differentiation module allocates bandwidth to each traffic class with goals to maximize network utilization and avoid starvation of low priority flows. The proposal incorporates the congestion detection and control algorithm. Upon detection of congestion, the congested node makes an estimate of the data rate that should be used by the node itself and its one-hop away upstream nodes. While estimating the data rate, the congested node considers the characteristics of different traffic classes along with their total bandwidth usage. The architecture uses a shared database to enable cross-layer interactions. Application's network protocol settings and the interaction with the shared database is done through a cross-layer optimization middleware.

Currently, the IETF group is working on service differentiation in the Internet. However, in wireless environments such as Ad-hoc networks, where channel conditions are variable and bandwidth is scarce, the Internet differentiated services are suboptimal without lower layers' support. The IEEE 802.11 standard for Wireless LANs is the most widely used WLAN standard today. 1t has a mode of operation that can be used to provide service differentiation, but it has been shown to perform badly. In this paper, we present a new service differentiation scheme for support QoS in the wireless IEEE 802.11, which is based on a multiple queuing system to provide priority of user's flow. We simulate and analyze the performance of our algorithm and compare its performance with the original IEEE 802.11b protocol. Simulation results show that our approach increases overall throughput in the MAC layer.

A wireless Ad-hoc network is willing to send and receive data and for other nodes, and it is a temporal network where the nodes with mobility are automatically constituted. This network has been studied to construct networks in the state where there is no infrastructure. The limited nodes and its frequent moving in a wireless Ad-hoc network have resulted in frequent network disconnection. Therefore, the data transmission rate should be secured in a wireless Ad-hoc network. This study proposes the method to improve QoS of data transmission considering the mobility of nodes that respond to path searching by means of AOMDV routing protocol. By applying the suggested method, it is possible to raise the transmission rate by improving the reliability of transmission path.

RSVP was published as a resource reservation protocol to guarantee QoS for realtime applications in wired network environments. As mobile application services in wireless network environments are more popular, QoS guaranteeing problem becomes an important issue in mobile computing environments. Therefore, the researches about cooperation between RSVP and Mobile IP supporting mobility in mobile computing environments are activating today. In this paper, we propose I-MRSVP(Integrated-Mobile RSVP), a QoS guaranteed resource reservation protocol supporting the integrated mobility in mobile computing environments. I-MRSVP protocol supports the integrated mobility providing interoperability between Mobile IP-based macro cells and Cellular IP-based micro cells. To minimize resource reservation overheads, it provides efficient resource reservation functions by using the signal strength based predictive resource reservation scheme.

In this paper, an efficient technique for enhancing the QoS of multimedia service for an WiMedia network applying distributed cooperative medium access (D-MAC) protocol is proposed. D-MAC protocol has been proposed to support high-rate Wireless Personal Area Networks (HR-WPANs) by the WiMedia Alliance. Unlike the centralized IEEE 802.15.3 MAC, the D-MAC UWB specified by WiMedia supports all devices to be self-organized and removes the SOP (Simultaneous Operating Piconet) problem, i.e., packet collisions between overlapped piconets in the centralized IEEE 802.15.3 MAC. However the WiMedia D-MAC can't prevent reduce the throughput degradation occurred by mobile nodes with low data rate. Therefore, a distributed cooperative MAC protocol for multi-hop UWB network is proposed in this paper. The proposed technique can intelligently select the transmission path with higher data rate to provide real-time multimedia services with minimum delay, thus enhances QoS of multimedia service.

In this paper, we use the ECMA-392 standard, the first cognitive radio networks to meet the demand for IT services in the ship. We propose a ECMA-392 cooperative MAC protocol to ensure QoS to support multimedia services in the ship area in a multi-hop wireless bridge using ECMA-392 networks. Because the proposed protocol transmits directly or relay transmission by selecting efficient routes based on the information of the ECMA-392 devices, it provides communication to ensure QoS of the device. The simulation results show that the proposed cooperative MAC protocol improves a throughput of devices compared to the existing method.
