PONs (passive optical networks)은 운용비용이 저렴하고 높은 대역폭을 제공하기 때문에 가입자망에서 각광을 받고 있다. 최근에는 WDM (wavelength-division multiplexing)와 TDM (time-division multiplexing)을 결합한 TWDM PON이 가입자망에서의 새로운 해답으로 여겨지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 TWDM PON에 대한 새로운 MAC (media access control) protocol을 제안한다. 또한 TWDM PON에 대한 새로운 동적대역할당 방법을 제안하고 성능을 평가한다.

This paper proposes a new dynamic spectrum access (DSA) algorithm for cognitive radio networks. Once initialized, this algorithm works without the need of coordination overhead and hence can be used when no control channel is available. Secondary user (SU) lists and predetermined access control are used in this algorithm. We analyze the probability of no SU collision with primary user and the throughput of our proposed algorithm. Extensive simulations show that our algorithm outperforms the existing DSA algorithm in terms of both the aggregate throughput and the traffic distribution fairness. Furthermore, the validity of our analysis is confirmed by simulation results.

Slotted ALOHA (S-ALOHA) is a classical medium access control protocol widely used in multiple access communication networks, supporting distributed random access without the need for a central controller. Although stability and delay have been extensively studied in existing works, most of these studies have assumed ideal channel conditions or independent fading, and the impact of time-correlated wireless channels has been less addressed. In this paper, we investigate the queueing delay performance in S-ALOHA networks under time-correlated channel conditions by utilizing a Gilbert-Elliott model. Through simulation studies, we demonstrate how temporal correlation in the wireless channel affects the queueing delay performance. We find that stronger temporal correlation leads to increased variability in queue length, a larger probability of having queue overflows, and higher congestion levels in the S-ALOHA network. Consequently, there is an increase in the average queueing delay, even under a light traffic load. With these findings, we provide valuable insights into the queueing delay performance of S-ALOHA networks, supplementing the existing understanding of delay in S-ALOHA networks.

Ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) associates ciphertext with access policies. Only when the user's attributes satisfy the ciphertext's policy, they can be capable to decrypt the ciphertext. Expressivity and security are the two directions for the research of CP-ABE. Most of the existing schemes only consider monotonic access structures are selectively secure, resulting in lower expressivity and lower security. Therefore, fully secure CP-ABE schemes with non-monotonic access structure are desired. In the existing fully secure non-monotonic access structure CP-ABE schemes, the attributes that are set is bounded and a one-use constraint is required by these projects on attributes, and efficiency will be lost. In this paper, to overcome the flaw referred to above, we propose a new fully secure non-monotonic access structure CP-ABE. Our proposition enforces no constraints on the scale of the attributes that are set and permits attributes' unrestricted utilization. Furthermore, the scheme's public parameters are composed of a constant number of group elements. We further compare the performance of our scheme with former non-monotonic access structure ABE schemes. It is shown that our scheme has relatively lower computation cost and stronger security.

This paper presents a terminal-assisted frame-based packet reservation multiple access (TAF-PRMA) protocol, which optimizes random access control between heterogeneous traffic aiming at more efficient voice/data integrated services in dynamic reservation TDMA-based broadband access networks. In order to achieve a differentiated quality-of-service (QoS) guarantee for individual service plus maximal system resource utilization, TAF-PRMA independently controls the random access parameters such as the lengths of the access regions dedicated to respective service traffic and the corresponding permission probabilities, on a frame-by-frame basis. In addition, we have adopted a terminal-assisted random access mechanism where the voice terminal readjusts a global permission probability from the central controller in order to handle the 'fair access' issue resulting from distributed queuing problems inherent in the access network. Our extensive simulation results indicate that TAF-PRMA achieves significant improvements in terms of voice capacity, delay, and fairness over most of the existing medium access control (MAC) schemes for integrated services.

본 논문에서는 접속노드와 무선채널로 구성되는 ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode)기반의 무선 ATM 가입자망에서 VBR(Variable Bit Rate) 트래픽의 CLR(Cell Loss Ratio) 성능을 개선하기 위한 기법을 제안하였다. 이를 위해 우선 무선 ATM 가입자망의 트래픽 모델을 cell scale과 burst scale로 구분하여 분석한 후, 무선접속노드에서 VBR 트래픽의 CLR과 무선채널에서 랜덤에러 및 버스트 에러환경의 CLR 관계식을 분석하였다. 그리고 접속노드와 무선채널의 CLR이 서로 독립적인 관계임을 고려하여 무선 ATM가입자망의 CLR 관계식을 유도하였다. 또한 무선 ATM 가입자망의 CLR을 바탕으로 기존의 SR(Selective Repeat) ARQ(Automatic Repeat request) 보다 Type I Hybrid ARQ기법을 적용한 경우에 CLR이 개선됨을 알 수 있었으며 개선정도를 정량적으로 산출하였다.

We propose a distributed medium access control protocol for cognitive radio networks to opportunistically utilize multiple channels. Under the proposed protocol, cognitive radio nodes forecast and rank channel availability observing primary users' activities on the channels for a period of time by time series analyzing using smoothing models for seasonal data by Winters' method. The proposed approach protects primary users, mitigates channel access delay, and increases network performance. We analyze the optimal time to sense channels to avoid conflict with the primary users. We simulate and compare the proposed protocol with the existing protocol. The results show that the proposed approach utilizes channels more efficiently.

4세대 무선통신 환경에서, 가장 중요한 문제 중의 하나는 사용자들에게 적합한 접근 네트워크를 발견하고 선택하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 그룹결정기법을 이용한 새로운 네트워크 선택 메커니즘을 제안하고, 이종 네트워크 환경에서 수직 핸드오버를 위한 네트워크 선택 기법에 따른 영향을 분석한다. 비슷한 QoS 요구조건들을 갖는 사용자들의 그룹들이 동시에 이용할 수 있는 네트워크를 탐색하며, 한 서비스 영역은 여러 특성을 갖는 다수의 접근 네트워크들이 존재하는 경우를 고려한다. 비슷한 특성을 갖는 네트워크들을 그룹으로 묶어, 일차적으로 그룹간의 판별을 통해 적합한 그룹을 선택한 후, 그 그룹에서 네트워크 선택 알고리즘에 의한 네트워크 순위를 통해 최적의 네트워크를 선택해 준다. 제안된 시스템을 MADM 기법 중 GRA, SAW 그리고 TOPSIS 방법으로 비교 및 평가하였다. MATLAB 시뮬레이션 결과, 제안된 알고리즘은 네트워크들의 특성과 사용자의 선호도에 따라 더욱 효과적인 선택을 할 수 있음을 알 수 있다.

Femtocells are viewed as a promising option for mobile operators to improve coverage and provide high-data-rate services in a cost-effective manner Femtocells can be used to serve indoor users, resulting in a powerful solution for ubiquitous indoor and outdoor coverage. TThe frequency accuracy and phase alignment is necessary for ensuring the quality of service (QoS) forapplications such as voice, real-time video, wireless hand-off, and data over a converged access medium at the femtocell. But, the GPS has some problem to be used at the femtocell, because it is difficult to set-up, depends on the satellite condition, and very expensive. The IEEE 1588 specification provides a low-cost means for clock synchronisation over a broadband Internet connection. The Time of Packet (ToP) specified in IEEE 1588 is able to synchronize distributed clocks with an accuracy of less than one microsecond in packet networks. However, the timing synchronization over packet switched networks is a difficult task because packet networks introduce large and highly variable packet delays. This paper proposes an enhanced filter algorithm to reduce ths packet delay variation effects and maintain ToP slave clock synchronization performance. The results are presented to demonstrate in the intra-networks and show the improved performance case when the efficient ToP filter algorithm is applied.
