We Relay-assisted cellular network architecture has been developed to cover cell-edge users and to improve capacity. However, the deployment of relay stations (RSs) in cellular networks may increase the total energy consumption. Though energy efficiency has become a major concern in cellular networks, little work has studied the energy efficiency of relay-assisted cellular networks by sleep scheduling. In this paper, a distributed base stations (BSs) sleep scheduling scheme in relay-assisted cellular networks is proposed. The goal is to maximize the energy efficiency under the spectral efficiency constraint. Firstly, whether the BSs should be sleeping or active is determined by the traffic profile. Then, the transmission powers of the active BSs are optimized within the game-theoretic framework, by using an interior-point method, so as to maximize the energy efficiency. Simulation results demonstrate that the effectiveness of the proposed scheme is superior to that turning on all the BSs without sleep scheduling.

Power-efficient base station (BS) operation is one of the important issues in future green cellular networks. Previously well-known BS operation schemes, the cell zooming scheme and the cell wilting and blossoming scheme, require tight cooperation between cells in cellular networks. With the previous schemes, the non-cooperative BSs of a serving cell and neighboring cells could cause coverage holes between the cells, thereby seriously degrading the quality of service as well as the power saving efficiency of the cellular networks. In this paper, we propose a novel power-efficient BS operation scheme for green downlink heterogeneous cellular networks, in which the networks virtually adjust the coverage of a serving macrocell (SM) and neighboring macrocells (NMs) without adjusting the transmission power of the BSs when the SM is lightly loaded, and the networks turn off the BS of the SM when none of active users are associated with the SM. Simulation results show that our proposed scheme significantly improves the power saving efficiency without degrading the quality of service (e.g., system throughput) of a downlink heterogeneous LTE network and outperforms the previous schemes in terms of system throughput and power saving efficiency. In particular, with the proposed scheme, macrocells are able to operate independently without the cooperation of a SM and NMs for green heterogeneous cellular networks.

This paper proposes a neural network algorithm for a channel assignment in cellular mobile communications. The proposed algorithm is developed base on hopfield neural network in order to minimize the number of channel without a confliction between cells. To compare the performance of the proposed algorithm, we used seven benchmark problems selected from kunz's and funabiki's papers. Experimental results show that the convergence times are reduced form 27% to 66% compared with Kunz's and funabiki's algorithm and vonvergence rates are improved to 100%.

For assigning channel in a cellular sireless network, we purpose satisfying constraints with a related probability between cells and channels on the channel interference matrix formed by m terminals and n channels. And we purpose to get efficient channel assigning to limited channels in a wireless cell using parallelism of neural networks. In this paper, we solve the problem according to the number of requeirements when channel change with 11-533 procession elements. We demonstrate efficiency of proposed algorithm through same simulations in a specific time period.

This paper describes a robust mobile u-healthcare system with multiple physiological signs measurement capability in real time with integration of WSN(wireless sensor network) technology and CDMA(code division multiple access) network. A cellular phone receives health data in WSN and performs local physiological signs analysis at a phone processor, and then transmits abnormal data to server for further detail or precise health signal evaluation by a medical doctor over a CDMA network. Physiological signs of the patients are continuously monitored, processed and analyzed locally at cellular phone process to produce useful medical information for diagnosis and tracking purposes. By local simple analysis in cellular phone processor we can save the data transmission cost in CDMA network. By using the developed integrate ubiquitous healthcare service architecture, patients can realize self-health checking so that the prevention actions can be taken earlier. Appropriate self-monitoring and self-management can cure disease and relieve pain especially for patients who suffer from chronic diseases that need long term observation.

Cell phenotypes are determined by groups of functionally related genes. Microarray profiling of gene expression provides us response of cellular state to its perturbation. Several methods for uncovering a cellular network show reliable network reconstruction. In this study, we present reconstruction of genetic regulatory network of inflammation bowel disease in human peripheral blood mononuclear cell. The microarray based on Affymetrix Gene Chip Human Genome U133 Array Set HG-U133A is processed and applied network reconstruction algorithm, ARACNe. As a result, we will show that inferred network composed of 450 nodes and 2017 edges is roughly scale-free network and hierarchical organization. The major hub, CCNL2 (cyclin A2), in inferred network is shown to be associated with inflammatory function as well as apoptotic function.

단말 간 직접통신(D2D: Device-to-Device) 기술은 지리적으로 근접한 단말들이 네트워크 인프라를 거치지 않고 직접적으로 통신하는 기술이다. 특히 셀룰러 네트워크에서는 D2D 통신이 셀룰러 자원을 공간적으로 재사용함으로써 주파수 이용 효율을 향상시킬 수 있다. 하지만 셀룰러 단말의 채널 시변성 및 그에 따른 자원 할당 변화로 인해 셀룰러 자원을 재사용하는 D2D 단말의 채널 품질을 지속적으로 유지할 수 없고, 셀룰러 단말 또한 간섭에 의해 성능이 열화될 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 D2D 링크가 셀룰러 네트워크의 상향링크 자원을 재사용하는 상황에서 셀룰러 단말의 채널 변화로 인한 D2D 통신 링크의 성능 열화를 완화하는 방안으로 비면허 대역 주파수 자원을 D2D 통신에 보조적으로 활용하는 기술을 제안한다. 모의실험을 통해 제안한 기술의 효용성을 검증한다.

이동통신 가입자가 증가함으로 인하여 휴대전화로부터 유발되는 전자파 노출 유해성 여부에 대한 논란이 끊임없이 제기되면서 이와 관련한 연구가 국제적으로 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 휴대전화 사용에 관한 정보로 사용자 본인이 정량적인 전자파 노출량을 직접 알 수 있다면 매우 이상적일 것이다. 그러나 인체에 노출되는 전자파의 양을 직접적으로 측정하는 것은 매우 어렵기 때문에 정확한 노출량을 아는 것은 쉽지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내외에서 선행된 연구 결과 및 쉽게 알 수 있는 휴대전화의 모델에 관한 간단한 정보, 사용경향을 이용하여 개인의 휴대전화 전자파의 노출 정도를 제시해 보고자 한다. 휴대전화 사용에 따른 노출 정도를 제시하기 위하여 1일 평균 통화시간, 총 사용기간에 관한 정보와 선행된 연구 결과들을 기반으로 휴대전화 사용시 이격거리와 기울기, 핸즈프리와 안테나의 사용 여부, 휴대전화의 SAR(Specific Absorption Rate), 플립 혹은 폴더형인지 등에 관한 인자들을 이용하였다. 이 인자들을 신경망 회로를 이용하여 노출 정도를 간접적으로 평가하여 사용자에게 제시해 보고자 하였다.

The application of mathematical analysis to the study of wireless ad hoc networks has met with limited success due to the complexity of mobility, traffic models and the dynamic topology. A scenario based universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) time division duplex (TDD) opportunistic cellular system with an ad hoc behaviour that operates over UMTS frequency division duplex (FDD) licensed cellular network is considered. In this paper, we present a new routing metric which overall improves system performance in terms of interference and routing which operate in an ad hoc network in an opportunistic manner. Therefore we develop a simulation tool that addresses the goal of analysis and assessment of UMTS TDD opportunistic radio system with ad hoc behavior in coexistence with a UMTS FDD primary cellular networks.

The recent notion of Network Centric Warfare (NCW) emphasizes the ability to distribute right information at the right time to maximize the combat effectiveness. Accordingly, in the modern combat system the importance of non-physical element, such as communication system is increasing. However, an NCW-support communication network system is expensive. Therefore, it is essential to develop a proper combat system evaluation method to establish an efficient NCW-support combat system. Traditionally, combat system effectiveness is measured in terms of physical elements such as men and fire power. Obviously, such method is hardly applicable to a modern combat system To overcome this difficulty, we propose an evaluation model based on CA (Cellular Automata) simulation. A set of preliminary combat simulations show that CA simulation may be promising in evaluating non-physical element of a modem combat system.
