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.

Visible light communication (VLC) is considered to be an attractive scheme to realize the broadband wireless communication for an indoor environment. We present a room division multiplexing (RDM) mechanism for an indoor multi-room VLC network, which utilizes the spatial position of the LED lamp in different rooms as a novel dimension of network resource for multiplexing, and thus the network capacity is increased. In such a network, the service interruption caused by user cross-room movement is an important problem, and we propose a double-area-positioning based cross-room switch solution. An experimental platform demonstrates the RDM-deployed VLC network, and validates the performance of the presented switch mechanism.

The objective of this paper is to design broadband microstrip patch antenna for mobile communication service. The enhanced features were confirmed and proved by comparing the proposed antenna with the antennae that have been reported in the relevant literatures. The experimental results show that the impedance bandwidth(VSWR ${\leq}2$) of 19.6%(fo=1,920MHz) and the peak gain of 5.53dBi(at 1,900MHz) were obtained by the mobile communication service frequency band. The proposed antenna had the impedance bandwidth of about 3.1% larger than that of the reported microstrip antenna.

This paper proposes a new spectrum forecasting (SF) model to estimate the spectrum demands for future mobile broadband (MBB) services. The model requires five main input metrics, that is, the current available spectrum, site number growth, mobile data traffic growth, average network utilization, and spectrum efficiency growth. Using the proposed SF model, the future MBB spectrum demand for Malaysia in 2020 is forecasted based on the input market data of four major mobile telecommunication operators represented by A-D, which account for approximately 95% of the local mobile market share. Statistical data to generate the five input metrics were obtained from prominent agencies, such as the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission, OpenSignal, Analysys Mason, GSMA, and Huawei. Our forecasting results indicate that by 2020, Malaysia would require approximately 307 MHz of additional spectrum to fulfill the enormous increase in mobile broadband data demands.

In the traditional telephone services, the settlement method for usage of facilities has been systematically and reasonably arranged based on the cost. Through the advanced technology, the telecommunication services such as the convergence of voice-data, wire-wireless, communication-broadcasting, etc are offering. So, new settlement method in the broadband convergence network (BCN) should be necessary. This paper suggests inter-companies settlement method in the broadband network using interconnection bandwidth and transmission distance factor. By reflecting the facility cost weight on each BCN level, the cost settlement for various services can be easily done. As the settlement model for BCN, the inter-companies interconnection and settlement can be normalized by interconnection bandwidth and transmission distance factors.

In coherent superhigh speed optical transmission link, compensating the system impairments are critical issues. Among these issues, phase noise and carrier frequency offset are the most important impairments which interrupt the signal recovery. This paper suggests a algorithm of digital signal processing that compensates the phase noise and carrier frequency offset and verified its validity. The suggested digital signal processing algorithm has a lower computational complexity compared with the previous algorithms, so it can ease the burden of signal processing at the receiver to provide high speed optical transmission system.

Currently the telephone service using Internet grows and the recent introduction of a smart phone is expected to accelerate the trend. In particular, considering the domestic situation that the wireless broadband (WiBro) system deployed over the nation, the telephone service over WiBro can be a solution toward its fast expansion. Unlike telephone service over a conventional telephone network or mobile network, however, internet telephone cannot guarantee it service quality, which can be severer in a wireless environment such as a WiBro network. Therefore, a more strict and systematic management for controlling the quality of internet telephone service over WiBro in a more efficient way. As the first step to establish the management system, this paper proposes a scheme to manage the quality of internet telephone service over WiBro and introduces a software developed for the purpose. The developed software is installed on a user terminal and facilitates efficient service quality management by measuring the quality of internet telephone service over WiBro in terms of VoIP metric, network metric, and wireless metric.

This paper evaluates on the feasibility of MIL-STD-188-220 protocol as a medium access protocol over WNW(Wideband Network Waveform) by simulating and comparing with IEEE 802.11e-based protocol. WNW is newly designed waveform for next-generation broadband tactical communication system. This paper shows the feasibility of using the MIL-STD-188-220 protocol that shows better performance than IEEE 802.11e-based protocol on the particular environment.

In this paper, we present the base station(BS) processing capacity to provide the multimedia services in IMT-2000 wireless communication network. The IMT-2000 services are classified into two types, circuit and packet services, and user‘s environments such as indoor, pedestrian and vehicle are considered. Using the parameters of service economics and wireless technology, the user's reference traffic and BS‘s traffic are computed. The traffic is measured by throughput(kbps). Based on the measured traffic, the accommodating users in BS are also evaluated. In addition to, the BS design capacity is presented for varying the number of users and traffic distribution in different user's environments.

As broadband wireless access systems are widely accepted, VoIP service over the wireless network is being requested. Because previous VoIP implementations are designed to provide service over wired network, they does not consider security problem sufficiently that is one of the most vulnerable aspects of wireless communication. Therefore, this paper describes how to implement secure VoIP service over wireless network with minimum overhead.
