Avionic databuses fulfill a critical function in the connection and communication of aircraft components and functions such as flight-control, navigation, and monitoring. Ethernet-based avionic databuses have become the mainstream for large aircraft owning to their advantages of full-duplex communication with high bandwidth, low latency, low packet-loss, and low cost. As a new generation aviation network communication standard, avionics full-duplex switched ethernet (AFDX) adopted concepts from the telecom standard, asynchronous transfer mode (ATM). In this technology, the switches are the key devices influencing the overall performance. This paper reviews the avionic databus with emphasis on the switch architecture classifications. Based on a comparison, analysis, and discussion of the different switch architectures, we propose a new avionic switch design based on a time-division switch fabric for high flexibility and scalability. This also merges the design concept of space-partition switch fabric to achieve reliability and predictability. The new switch architecture, called space partitioned shared memory switch (SPSMS), isolates the memory space for each output port. This can reduce the competition for resources and avoid conflicts, decrease the packet forwarding latency through the switch, and reduce the packet loss rate. A simulation of the architecture with optimized network engineering tools (OPNET) confirms the efficiency and significant performance improvement over a classic shared memory switch, in terms of overall packet latency, queuing delay, and queue size.

In this paper, we propose an energy-efficient unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) relaying network. In this network, the channels between UAVs and ground transceivers are model-free. A UAV acting as a flying relay explores better channels to assist in efficient data delivery between two ground nodes. The full-duplex relaying mode is applied for potential energy efficiency (EE) improvements. With the genetic algorithm, we manage to optimize the UAV trajectory for any arbitrary radio map scenario. Numerical results demonstrate that compared to other schemes (eg, fixed trajectory/speed policies), the proposed algorithm performs better in terms of EE. Additionally, the impact of self-interference on average EE is also investigated.

본 연구는 조명 및 무선통신이 동시에 가능한 가시광 송수신기에 대해 가시광 통신 본연의 가시성, 무선 통신의 사용 편의성 그리고 고속의 통신 속도를 고려해 edge-emitting laser diode와 silicon photo diode를 기반으로한 고속 가시광 무선 송수신기를 구현하였다. 제안된 가시광 무선 송수신기는 120Mbit/s의 고속에서 양방향 전송이 가능하도록 설계되었으며 이때 발생하는 누화(crosstalk)를 방지하기 위한 방법으로 shielding 방식을 적용해 가시광 송수신기의 성능을 실험적으로 측정 분석하였다. 또 수신기의 시야각 확대를 위한 방법으로는 새로운 구조의 광학적 antenna를 적용해 광학적 antenna가 없는 두 개의 송수신기 사이의 전송링크 특성과 광학적 antenna를 사용한 두 개의 송수신기 사이의 전송링크 특성을 2차원 평면상에서 전송거리, 적용범위 그리고 기울임 정도를 변화시켜 실험과 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 성능을 비교 분석하였다.

In this paper, a VHDL implementation method for the internet protocol (IP) placed on top of ATM, so called IP over ATM, is presented. The proposed implementation method employs a parallel processing architecture to reduce the processing time and offers 155.52Mbps (STM-1) interface with the full-duplex mode for the ATM-based network. Furthermore, in order to minimize the search time for the table look-up, a LANCAM-based structure combining the routing table with the ATMARP table is proposed. The VHDL simulation results show that this proposed method can transmit (receive) at 155.52Mbps with delays of 48.5 clocks (29.5clocks).

Data errors according to the various noises caused in the satellite communication links are corrected by the Viterbi decoding algorithm which has extreme error correcting capability. In this paper, we designed and implemented a convolutional encoder and Viterbi decoder ASIC which is used to encode the input data at the transmit side and correct the errors of the received data at the receive side for use in the VSAT communication system. And this chip may be used in any BPSK, QPSK, or OQPSK transmission system. The ambiguity resolver corrects PSK modem ambiguities by delaying, interting, and/or exchanging code symbol to restore their original sequence and polarity. In case of previous decoding system, ambiguity state(AS) of data is resolved by external control logic and extra redundancy data are needed to resolve AS. But, by adopting decoder proposed in this paper, As of data is resolved automatically by internal logic of decoder in case of continuous mode, and by external As line withoug extra redudancy data in burst mode case. So, decoding parts are simple in continuous mode and transmission efficiency is increased in bust mode. The features of this chip are full duplex operation with independent transmit and receive control and clocks, start/stop inputs for use in burst mode systems, loopback function to verify encoder and decoder, and internal or external control to resolve ambinguity state. For verification of the function and performance of a fabricated ASIC chip, we equiped this chip in the Central and Remote Earth Station of VSAT system, and did the performance test using the commerical INTELSAT VII under the real satellite link environmens. The results of test were demonstrated the superiority of performance.

무선통신망에서 단일 라디오와 채널의 사용은 무선 노드의 반이중 전송 및 경로의 내부간섭으로 통신망의 처리율 및 단대단 지연 특성을 저하시킨다. 또한, 채널경쟁기반의 무선통신망에서 임의노드 주변에 동일 채널을 경쟁하는 노드가 많으면 경쟁으로 인한 대역폭 감소와 전송 충돌로 인한 지연이 발생하여 통신망의 성능을 저하시킨다. 본 논문에서는 다수 라디오와 채널을 사용하여 무선노드의 전이중전송이 가능하게 하고 경로내부간섭을 배제할 수 있도록 라디오와 채널의 기능을 설정하고 큐잉이론의 해석모델을 이용하여 무선구간의 채널 경쟁 및 충돌을 반영한 무선구간 메트릭 ccf 및 ccf와 함께 채널변경지연, 경로내부간섭을 반영한 경로설정 메트릭 MCCR을 제안한다. MCCR과 MCR을 시뮬레이션을 사용하여 비교하였으며 MCCR을 사용하여 설정한 경로가 MCR보다 통신망 성능을 향상시키는 결과를 얻었다.
