Visualizations have played an important role in understanding new insights of users of social network for social network analysis. Most of the previous works of visualization focus on representing user's relationship on social network by a complex multi dimension graph. However, this method is difficult to identify the important of relationship to focus on personal user intuitively. Besides, the user's messages to reflect the interrelation between users is insufficient, since most of visualization methods represent the user relationship using information of interaction between nodes on networks. In order to resolve above problem, this paper proposes a new visualization method to visualize user based hierarchy that uses internal relationship of users by fuzzy relational product and external access information of network.

Recently, the technological development in the Internet of Things(IoT) field has grown rapidly worldwide and China is also expected to show a noticeable growth trend in this field. Therefore, the aim of this research is to analyze the recent trend of Chinese patents in the IoT field. China has been very active between 2010 and 2014, surpassing USA, and the this trend will accelerate in the future. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, the number of IoT-related patents in China increased rapidly from 2010 to 2014. Second, the major actors that led this quantitative increase are firms including ZTE and higher education institutes such as Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications. Lastly, major technological fields and the convergence networks amongst those fields were analyzed. As a result, it was found that the patenting activity in H04L was the most active and this field has led the convergence among other technological fields.

As a possible standardization of wireless local area network (WLAN), IEEE 802.11 LRLP is under discussion in order to support long range and low power (LRLP) communication for internet of things (IoT) including drones and many other IoT devices. In this paper, an efficient adaptive resource unit allocation scheme for uplink multiuser transmission in IEEE 802.11 LRLP networks is proposed. In the proposed scheme, which adopts OFDMA random access based transmission scheme of IEEE 802.11ax, in order to enhance the efficiency of the slotted OFDMA random access, access point (AP) traces the history of the sizes of successfully transmitted uplink data, and adjusts the sizes of resource units for the next uplink multiuser transmission adaptively. Our simulation results corroborate that the proposed scheme significantly improves the system throughput.

본 논문은 위성간 링크를 이용하여 저궤도 위성망을 구성할 때 발생하는 링크할당 문제를 효율적으로 풀기 위한 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 먼저 위성 궤도운동의 주기성에 기반하여 저궤도 위성망을 유한상태기계로 모델링한 후에, 유한상태기계의 각 상태에서 최적의 링크할당을 구하기 위해서 조합형 최적화 문제에 많이 쓰이는 시뮬레이팅드 어닐리을 이용한다. 제안된 기법의 이점은 저궤도 위성망을 유한상태기계로 모델링함으로써 도적인 움직임을 보이는 저궤도 위성망에서의 링크할당 문제를 고정된 위상을 가지는 망에서의 링크할당 문제로 단순화시키고 이를 토대로 최적화기법을 적용할 수 있다는 것이다. 시뮬레이티드 어닐링에 의하여 최적화된 링크할당의 성능은 정규링크할당과의 비교.분석을 통해서 평가된다. 최적화된 링크할당과 정규링크할당의 성능분석을 위하여 정적경로배정과 동적경로배정 기법이 고려된다. 시뮬레이션을 통한 실험결과는 정적경로배정을 적용한 최적링크할당 기법이 호 봉쇄확률 측면에서 최고의 성능을 가짐을 보여준다. 링크할당기법이 같은 경우에는 정적경로배정이 동적경로배정보다 우수한 성능을 보이는데 이는 동적경로배정의 경우에 상태전이 후에 경로배정 표가 안정화되기 위해서 많은 시간을 필요로 하기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 링크할당 기법은 작은 용량의 위성간 링크를 가지고서 많은 호에대한 서비스를 제공하고자 할 때 유용하며, 호의 서비스를 위하여 실제로 필요한 위성간 링크의 용량은 실험결과로부터 유추될 수 있다.

This paper describes indoor location estimation intelligent robot. It is loaded indoor location estimation function using RSSI based indoor location estimation system and wireless sensor networks. Spartan III(Xilinx, U.S.A.) is used as a main control device in the mobile robot and the current direction data is collected in the indoor location estimation system. The data is transferred to the wireless sensor network node attached to the mobile robot through Zigbee/IEEE 802.15.4, a wireless communication. After receiving it, with the data of magnetic compass the node is aware of and senses the direction the robot head for and the robot moves to its destination. Indoor location estimation intelligent robot is can be moved efficiently and actively without obstacle on flat ground to the appointment position by user.

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to optimize energy efficiency in a multi-user decoupled RF energy harvesting network and experiment on the trend of energy efficiency change assuming users' various geographical distribution scenarios. In the RF energy harvesting network where both wireless data transmission and RF energy harvesting are simultaneously performed, the energy efficiency is a key indicator of network performance, and it is necessary to investigate how various factors can affect the energy efficiency. In order to increase energy efficiency effectively, we can confirm that users' distributions are important factors in the RF energy harvesting network from the simulation results.

In multihop cellular network environments, the mobility of nodes is a major obstacle to find a reliable routing path between a mobile node (MN) and the access node (AN). Therefore, in this paper, we propose a fast and reliable neighbor discovery protocol that enables the fast and reliable neighbor discovery by considering the node mobility in the multihop cellular network. The proposed neighbor discovery protocol inhibits the transmission of unnecessary control messages to quickly find a suitable neighbor node (NN) and performs a priority-based access control to transmit control messages without collision in the order of NN desirable to be selected. Simulation results show that the proposed neighbor discovery protocol can discover the NNs faster than the conventional scheme and select a more reliable relay node although the number of neighbor nodes increases and the node mobility increases.

The growing demand to make wireless data services 5G compatible has necessitated the development of an energy-efficient approach for an effective new wireless environment. In this paper, we first propose a cognitive sensor node (CSN) based game theory for deriving energy via a primary user-transmitted radio frequency signal. Cognitive users' time was segmented into three phases based on a time switching protocol: energy harvest, spectrum sensing and data transmission. The proposed model chooses the optimal energy-harvesting phase as the effected factor. We further propose a distributed energy-harvesting model as a utility function via pricing techniques. The model is a non-cooperative game where players can increase their net benefit in a selfish manner. Here, the price is described as a function pertaining to transmit power, which proves that the proposed energy harvest game includes Nash Equilibrium and is also unique. The best response algorithm is used to achieve the green connection between players. As a result, the results obtained from the proposed model and algorithm show the advantages as well as the effectiveness of the proposed study. Moreover, energy consumption was reduced significantly (12%) compared to the benchmark algorithm because the proposed algorithm succeeded in delivering energy in micro which is much better compared to previous studies. Considering the reduction and improvement in power consumption, we could say the proposed model is suitable for the next wireless environment represented in 5G.

In this paper, considering virtualized Evolved Packet Core(vEPC) network for 5G mobile network, we propose architecture for supporting Service Function Chaining(SFC) in 5G mobile network. Using SFC in 5G network, dynamic path configuration and providing network services based on subscriber and traffic information. SFC technology provides logical ordered set of network functions and delivers packet through providing logical path over the physical network. Based on the perspective of 5G core network in distributed manner, we design hierarchical SFC architecture to manage SFC for global path including vEPC and SGi-LAN network, and internal path between virtualized network functions in each cloud. In this paper, we define architecture and call flow for establishing data path using SFC. Finally, we design testbed architecture for real implementation based on open source software.
