This paper propose a dual-layer beam-forming technique for MIMO-OFDM systems. Dual-layer beam-forming is a capacity enhancing technique to transmit two streams of source data with more than two transmit and receive antennas. Beamforming is a technique to enhance the link-level performances gain using antenna array with the small inter element distance. The proposed scheme can obtain both high capacity of spatial multiplexing and antenna array gain of beamforming for MIMO-OFDM systems. Therefore, it provides better BER performance than the traditional spatial multiplexing and beamforming techniques under the same simulation environment.

The WBAN technology means a short distance wireless network which provides each device's interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body located within 3 meters. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. It is necessary to develop the WBAN core technology that sensor node device, WBAN middleware and WBAN application service for WBAN environment. In this paper we designed the medical message structure and implemented medical application for purpose of vital information reliability. The message structure was proposed for WBAN environment and application can be check biometric information from BN on smart device through WBAN gateway.

With the increasing number of the wireless and mobile networks, the way that people use the Internet has changed substantively. Wireless multimedia services, such as wireless video streaming, mobile video game, and mobile voice over IP, will become the main applications of the future wireless Internet. To accommodate the growing volume of wireless data traffic and multimedia services, cognitive radio (CR) and Information-Centric Network (ICN) have been proposed to maximize the utilization of wireless spectrum and improve the network performance. Although CR and ICN have high potential significance for the future wireless Internet, few studies have been conducted on collaborative operations of CR and ICN. Due to the lack of infrastructure support in multi-hop ad hoc CR networks, the problem is more challenging for video streaming services. In this paper, we propose a Cross-layer Video Streaming Mechanism (CLISM) for Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Information Centric Networks (CRAH-ICNs). The CLISM included two distributed schemes which are designed for the forwarding nodes and receiving nodes in CRAH-ICNs. With the cross-layer approach, the CLISM is able to self-adapt the variation of the link conditions without the central network controller. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed CLISM efficiently adjust video transmission policy under various network conditions.

When a Mobile IP handoff occurs, the packets in flight can be lost because they are tunneled based on out-of-date location information. In this parer, we propose an enhanced handoff protocol that achieves no packet loss during Mobile IP handoff over a wireless LAN. Our handoff protocol predicts the next foreign agent that a mobile host is to visit by using: the information from the data link layer of wireless LAN. After that, when a Mobile IP handoff occult, the current foreign agent forwards the packets destined to a mobile host to the predicted foreign agent which buffers them. This eliminates packet loss and reduces the packet forwarding delay. Our handoff protocol is simulated using the Network Simulator-2 (ns-2) and shows the substantial performance enhancement of TCP with much less overhead up to 6.2 times compared to standard Mobile IP.

This paper considers the cost minimization problem to satisfy QoS (Quality of Service) requirements for a given network, in particular when communication resources to each link can be additionally assigned. For the purpose of quantifying QoS requirements such as data transfer delay and packet loss, we introduce the cost function considering both the link utilization factor and the additionally assigned resource. To minimize this cost function, we firstly formulate a Basic Capacity Planning (BCP) problem, a special case of Network Utility Maximization (NUM). We show that the solution of this BCP problem cannot be optimal via a counter example. In this paper, we suggest the cross-layer design of both additionally assigned resource and routing path, whose initial values are set to the result of BCP problem. This cross-layer design is based on a heuristic approach which presents an effective way to plan how much communication resources should be added to support the QoS requirements in future. By simulation study, we investigate the convergence of the cost function in a more general network topology as well as in a given simple topology.

The wideband DS-CDMA (W-CDMA) system is one of the candidates for the next generation mobile communication system known as IMT-2000. The important concept of W-CDMA is the introduction of intercell asynchronous operation. In this paper, we design and analyze the system level simulator for the International Mobile Tele communication - 2000 (IMT-2000) 3-rd generation partnership project (3GPP) system. We confirm how the simulator works by BER over different Eb/NO. This study will be expected to use as reference data in the development of asynchronous IMT-2000. In this paper, we analyze a physical layer of W-CDMA system and design a transmitter and receiver by using ADS (Advanced Design System). Also, we simulated a link level performance in Rayleigh fading channel environment. This study will be useful in the analysis and design of W-CDMA system.

본 논문에서는 필드버스를 이용한 지능형 전송기의 FOUNDATION 필드버스 응용계층에 관해 설계하였다. 필드버스 전송기에는 물리계층 데이터링크 계층 응용계층이 있는데 여기서는 응용 계층 중에서 FAS(Fieldbus Access Sublayer)에 대해서만 설명하고자 한다. FAS는 DLL(Data Link Layer) 계층과 응용 계층인 FMS(Fieldbus Message Specification)간에 인터페이스 기능을 수행한다. FMS에서 생성된 메시지가 DLL에서 제공하는 토큰 패싱 또는 스케줄 방식을 통해서 전송되기 위해서는 전송단과 수신단간에 통신관계가 설정되어야 하며, 이러한 기능이 FAS 계층에서 수행된다. FAS에서 통신관계를 설정하기 위한 서비스 종류는 VCR(Virtual Communication Relationship)에 의하여 결정된다. 하드웨어 설계 부분에 대해서는 본 논문에서 설명하지 않았다.

In IEEE 802.15.4 (Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Network) specification, a successful reception and validation of a data or MAC command frame can be confirmed with an acknowledgment. However, the specification does not support security for acknowledgment frame; the lack of a MAC covering acknowledgments allows an adversary to forge an acknowledgment for any frame. This paper proposes an identity authentication mechanism at the link layer for acknowledgment frame in IEEE 802.15.4 network. With the proposed mechanism there is only three bits for authentication, which can greatly reduce overhead. The encrypted bit stream for identity authentication will be transmitted to device by coordinator within association process. Statistical method indicates that our mechanism is successful in handling MAC layer attack.

It is aware that Bandwidth management with dramatically increasing traffic on account of frequent and large file transmission in a data grid environment is one of essential needs. A this paper we propose new method which guarantees QoS (Quality of Service) by being in control of resources in TCP layer based on existing studies that manage bandwidth over TCP buffer tuning. General QoS solutions manage network resources subsequent to observing them in IP or link layer, but the scheme in the paper is able to control network resources in TCP layer that is network upper layer. Consequently, bandwidth allocation to each user can be efficiently controlled depending on an authority each user is given so that users could be use different bandwidth. It is expected that a new paradigm is supposed in network resource management and the method of levies for users' bandwidth uses.

This paper is to show the character coding rule in computer and information equipment etc to improve the transmission efficiency in telecommunications. In the transmission system, the transmission efficiency can be increased by applying the proper character coding method. In datalink layer, HDSL ptotocol use FLAG byte to identify the frame to frame which consists of data bit stream and other control bytes. FLAG byte constits of "01111110". When data bit stream consist of the consecutive 5-bit "1" after "0", the decoder can not distinguish whether the data bit sequence is flag bit stream or data bit stream. To solve the problem, when the line coder in transmitter detects the consecutive 5-bits "1" after "0" in the input data stream, inserts violently the "0" after 5th "1" of the consecutive 5-bit "1" after "0". As a result, when the characters are decoded with the above procedure, the efficiency of system should be decreased. This paper shows the character code rule to minimize the consecutive 5-bits "1" after "0" when the code is given to each characters.
