In this paper, an adaptive MAC technique for various underwater environment with narrow-bandwidth and low transmission speed was proposed. In previously published Underwater Packet Flow Control (UPFC) technique, three transmission types (normal, block and parallel transmission) had been proposed using the number of transmission and transmission time. In addition to the UPFC, the proposed technique is an improved version of UPFC having more effective queuing technique for merge transmission. A mathematical model of the proposed queuing theory was constructed and its increased efficiency per unit transmission number was also verified based on simulations.

In the near future packet networks should support applications which can not predict their traffic requirements in advance, but still have tight quality of service requirements, e.g., guaranteed bandwidth, jitter, and packet loss. These dynamic characteristics mean that the sources can be made to modify their data transfer rates according to network conditions. Depending on the customer&; needs, network operator can differentiate incoming connections and handle those in the buffers and the interfaces in different ways. In this paper, dynamic QoS-aware scheduling algorithm is presented and investigated in the single node case. The purpose of the algorithm is in addition to fair resource sharing to different types of traffic classes with different priorities ?to maximize revenue of the service provider. It is derived from the linear type of revenue target function, and closed form globally optimal formula is presented. The method is computationally inexpensive, while still producing maximal revenue. Due to the simplicity of the algorithm, it can operate in the highly nonstationary environments. In addition, it is nonparametric and deterministic in the sense that it uses only the information about the number of users and their traffic classes, not about call density functions or duration distributions. Also, Call Admission Control (CAC) mechanism is used by hypothesis testing.

In this paper, an 1-Watt amplifier for IMT-2000 was designed and fabricated using feedfarward method which has the highest linearity and wide bandwidth. Since feedforward is sensitive to surroundings for example heat, input power level, time and so on, adaptive controller using micro controller is adopted. We fabricated a HPA with 35 dB gain, 40 dBm of 1-dB compression point, and utilized variable attenuator and variable phase shifter using reflection type to cancel loop signal. From the measured results, the fo11owing facts were obtained, in signal loop, main carrier over 35 dB was suppressed and error signal over 30 dB is cancelled in error loop, IMD characteristics above 60 dBc were obtained.

With the recent advances in Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) technology, low cost and low power consumption wireless micro sensor nodes have become available. However, energy-efficient routing is one of the most important key technologies in wireless sensor networks as sensor nodes are highly energy-constrained. Therefore, many researchers have proposed routing protocols for sensor networks, especially cluster-based routing protocols, which have many advantages such as reduced control messages, bandwidth re-usability, and improved power control. Some protocols use information on the locations of sensor nodes to construct clusters efficiently. However, it is rare that all sensor nodes know their positions. In this article, we propose another cluster-based routing protocol for sensor networks. This protocol does not use information concerning the locations of sensor nodes, but uses the remaining energy of sensor networks and the desirable number of cluster heads according to the circumstances of the sensor networks. From performance simulation, we found that the proposed protocol shows better performance than the low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH).

Currently digital communication system adapt various digital modulation schemes. All these communication systems are required to cause the minimum interference to adjacent channels, they must therefore employ the linear power amplifiers. In respect to linear power amplifiers, there are many linearization techniques. Feedforward power amplifier represent very wide bandwidth and high linearization capability. In the feedforward systems overall efficiency is reduced due to the loss of delay line. In this paper, delay filter instead of transmission delay line adapted to get more high efficiency. Experimental results showed that ACLR has improved 17.04dB which is added 2.54dB by using the delay filter.

The fully automatic algorithm from initial finite element mesh generation to remeshing in two dimensional geometry is introduced using bubble packing method (BPM) for finite element analysis. BPM determines the node placement by force-balancing configuration of bubbles and the triangular meshes are made by Delaunay triangulation with advancing front concept. In BPM, we suggest two node-search algorithms and the adaptive/recursive bubble controls to search the optimal nodal position. To use the automatically generated mesh information in FEA, the new enhanced bandwidth minimization scheme with high efficiency in CPU time is developed. In the remeshing stage, the mesh refinement is incorporated by the control of bubble size using two parameters. And Superconvergent Patch Recovery (SPR) technique is used for error estimation. To verify the capability of this algorithm, we consider two elasticity problems, one is the bending problem of short cantilever beam and the tension problem of infinite plate with hole. The numerical results indicate that the algorithm by BPM is able to refine the mesh based on a posteriori error and control the mesh size easily by two parameters.

Proportional Fair (PF) share policy has been adopted as a downlink scheduling scheme in CDMA2000 l×EV-DO standard. Although It offers optimal performance in aggregate throughput conditioned on equal time share among users, it cannot provide a bandwidth guarantee and a strict delay bound. which is essential requirements of real-time (RT) applications. In this study, we propose a new scheduling policy that provides quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees to a variety of traffic types demanding diverse service requirements. In our policy data traffic is categorized Into three classes, depending on sensitivity of Its performance to delay or throughput. And the primary components of our policy, namely, Proportional Fair (PF), Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ), and delay-based prioritized scheme are intelligently combined to satisfy QoS requirements of each traffic type. In our policy all the traffic categories run on the PF policy as a basis. However the level of emphasis on each of those ingredient policies is changed in an adaptive manner by taking into account the channel conditions and QoS requirements. Such flexibility of our proposed policy leads to offering QoS guarantees effectively and. at the same time, maximizing the throughput. Simulations are used to verify the performance of the proposed scheduling policy. Experimental results show that our proposal can provide guaranteed throughput and maximum delay bound more efficiently compared to other policies.

The realization of Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) has been fostered by the availability of low cost and low power CMOS devices. However, the transmission of bulk video data requires adequate bandwidth, which cannot be promised by single path communication on an intrinsically low resourced sensor network. Moreover, the distortion or artifacts in the video data and the adherence to delay threshold adds to the challenge. In this paper, we propose a two stage Quality of Service (QoS) guaranteeing scheme called Prioritized Multipath WMSN (PMW) for transmitting H.264 encoded video. Multipath selection based on QoS metrics is done in the first stage, while the second stage further prioritizes the paths for sending H.264 encoded video frames on the best available path. PMW uses two composite metrics that are comprised of hop-count, path energy, BER, and end-to-end delay. A color-coded assisted network maintenance and failure recovery scheme has also been proposed using (a) smart greedy mode, (b) walking back mode, and (c) path switchover. Moreover, feedback controlled adaptive video encoding can smartly tune the encoding parameters based on the perceived video quality. Computer simulation using OPNET validates that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms the conventional approaches on human eye perception and delay.

최근 네트워크 기술과 스마트 단말의 보급으로 인해 비디오 스트리밍 서비스에 대한 수요가 증가하게 되었다. 네트워크를 효율적으로 사용하여 비디오 스트리밍 서비스를 제공하기 위해 적응적으로 전송률을 조절하는 HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) 적응적 스트리밍 서비스가 주목 받게 되었다. UHD (Ultra High Definition) 콘텐츠는 HD (High Definition) 콘텐츠에 비해 적어도 4 배 이상의 크기를 갖기 때문에 끊김 없는 UHD 콘텐츠 스트리밍 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 많은 가용 대역폭이 필요하다. 기존의 HTTP 적응적 스트리밍 방식은 정상 상태 (Steady State)에서 가용 대역폭보다 낮은 품질의 비디오 세그먼트를 일정 시간마다 주기적으로 요청하여 다운로드 받는다. 정상 상태에서는 가용 대역폭과 콘텐츠의 인코딩 율에 차이에 따라 On-Off 구간의 패턴이 반복되어 발생하고, 빈번한 Off 구간에 의해서 대역폭이 낭비되는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 HTTP 적응적 스트리밍에서 UHD 콘텐츠의 효율적인 대역폭 활용을 위한 세그먼트 전송 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 Off 구간의 빈도수를 줄이기 위한 집단 세그먼트 전송 방식과 대역폭 낭비를 최소화 하기 위한 세그먼트 품질 조절기법으로 구성되어 있다.

Networks-on-chip (NoC) is emerging as a key technology to overcome severe bus traffics in ever-increasing complexity of the Multiprocessor systems-on-chip (MPSoC); however traditional electrical interconnection based NoC architecture would be faced with technical limits of bandwidth and power consumptions in the near future. In order to cope with these problems, a hybrid optical NoC architecture which use both electrical interconnects and optical interconnects together, has been widely investigated. In the hybrid optical NoCs, wormhole switching and simple deterministic X-Y routing are used for the electrical interconnections which is responsible for the setup of routing path and optical router to transmit optical data through optical interconnects. Optical NoC uses circuit switching method to send payload data by preset paths and routers. However, conventional hybrid optical NoC has a drawback that concurrent transmissions are not allowed. Therefore, performance improvement is limited. In this paper, we propose a new routing algorithm that uses circuit switching and adaptive algorithm for the electrical interconnections to transmit data using multiple paths simultaneously. We also propose an efficient method to prevent livelock problems. Experimental results show up to 60% throughput improvement compared to a hybrid optical NoC and 65% power reduction compared to an electrical NoC.
