  • This paper presents mutual authentication scheme between user and network on mobile communications using public key scheme based on counter, and simultaneously shows key agreement between user and user using random number for secure communications. This is also a range of possible solutions to authentication and key agreement problem-authentication and key agreement protocol based on nonce and count, and secure end-to-end protocol based on the function Y=f(.)$\^$1/, C$\^$i/ is count of user I, and f(.) is one way function.

  • This paper considers the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) relay channel where multiple antennas are employed by each terminal. Compared to single-input single-output (SISO) relay channels, MIMO relay channels introduce additional degrees of freedom, making the design and analysis of optimal cooperative strategies more complex. In this paper, a partial cooperation strategy that combines transmit-side message splitting and block-Markov encoding is presented. Lower bounds on capacity that improve on a previously proposed non-cooperative lower bound are derived for Gaussian MIMO relay channels.

  • MTC(Machine Type Communications), providing a variety of services anytime and anywhere by connecting the cellular network to the machine and things without human intervention, is being considered as a major challenge of the next-generation communications. Currently, When a massive MTC devices simultaneously connect to the network, each MTC device needs an independent access authentication process. Because of this process, authentication signaling congestion and overload problems will cause in LTE-Advanced. In this paper, we propose a group-based authentication protocol and a key management protocol. For managing the MTC devices as group units, the proposed protocol elects a group leader and authentications only once with the core network. After the authentication is completed, a group leader manages the rest members and MME(Mobility Management Entity) by constructing a binary tree. Finally, the propose protocol analysis show that the proposed protocol not only can reduces the authentication signaling which generated in between the MTC devices and the core network but also can manages the MTC devices, efficiently.

  • The one of features of M2M communications, which are recently attracted attention as a future business of mobile communications, is that there is a large number of devices compared with traditional communication services. Hence, the control signal that are generated by the M2M devices may cause a significant congestion in the network and in order to solve this problem, a standardization is progressing for reducing the redundant signaling by managing M2M devices as a group in 3GPP standardization. In this paper, we propose a method of group based mobility management by managing M2M devices that have the same mobility as a group. In the proposed method, M2M devices that have the same mobility are grouped by the Mobility Management Entity (MME) and the MME elects a group header among the M2M devices in the group. Then, the group header performs the Tracking Area Update (TAU) on behalf of the group members to reduce the signaling overhead of mobility management. With the proposed method, we can achieve 80% decrease of the signaling overhead of mobility management compared with the case where each M2M device individually performs its TAU procedure.

  • 기업 네트워크에서 안전하고 효과적이며 안정된 망 운영관리 환경 제공은 당면한 중요과제이며 기업 경쟁력의 핵심인 정보기술을 통한 생산성과도 연계성을 갖고 있다. 이러한 필요에 맞추어 많은 네트워크 관리 시스템들이 개발되어 상용화 되었으나 이들 관리시스템들은 트래픽 모니터링에 의한 통계값 제공과 같은 단순 평면적인 관리 기능만을 제공할 뿐 네트워크의 특성과 환경에 따른 분석, 진단 기능은 제공하지 못하고 있다. 또한 현재의 네트워크 환경은 다양한 통신장비와 서비스들의 개발에 따른 망 구성 요소의 이질성과 복잡성이 증가하고 있으며 이는 전문적인 네트워크 운영관리와 분석기술을 요구하고 있다. 이는 관리자에게 네트워크가 점점 다양화, 복잡화 되는 환경에서 부담으로 작용할 뿐 아니라 결과를 도출하는데 많은 시간과 비용이 소요된다. 따라서 기존 네트워크 관리 시스템의 한계를 극복하고 네트워크 환경 변화를 수용, 관리자의 운영경험지식을 데이터베이스화하여 지능적인 네트워크의 분석과 진단이 가능한 시스템의 개발이 필요하다. 본 논문은 이러한 시스템 구축의 전제조건으로 네트워크 운영경험 데이터베이스를 구축하여 이를 통한 네트워크 환경 변화를 수용할 수 있는 임계값 최적화와 향후 한국전력 사내 데이터통신망의 지능화된 분석과 진단을 위해 활용하게 될 지식 발견 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다.

  • In a High Altitude Platform (HAP) cellular communications network, each cell may be served by a dedicated spot-beam antenna. The antennas' beam properties and their spatial overlap control the co-channel interference. In prior literature, radiation patterns have been approximated by a main lobe followed by a constant sidelobe floor. A network of 121 cells has been studied and the method is here extended to the use of more realistic radiation patterns based on the theoretical aperture antenna patterns. This allows for the comparison of the effect of different aperture field tapers, which lead to reduced sidelobe levels and hence higher system capacity but also a more massive antenna payload.

  • The purpose of this study is to discover how therapeutic music making affects the way of communications in single-parent families. To do this, the study conducted a therapeutic music making program in two families consisting of a mother and a child. Songwriting, Ostinato-creating, improvisation imitation, and ensemble were used as musical interventions. The results of this study are following. First, the participant group B improved from 59 to 69.5 point after the program. However, the group A decreased from 81 to 75.5 point mainly due to frequent absences, differences in applying music. Second, the analysis of the results of verbal, nonverbal and musical responses from the program suggests that the group B gradually improved functional communications as each session develops. For the case of group A, at the initial stage, dysfunctional communications in verbal and nonverbal ones could be found. After the eighth session however, functional communications had increased. The result of the study shows that overall therapeutic music making has been an effective musical intervention in improving communication in single-parent families.

  • With the requirement for providing multiple levels of access control for group members, many group key management schemes designed for hierarchical access control have been put forward. However, most of these schemes focus on the efficiency of group key establishment and rekeying in centralized environments. This paper proposes an integrated group key agreement (IGK) scheme for contributory environments. The IGK scheme employs the integrated key graph to remove key redundancies existing in single key trees, and reduces key establishment and rekeying time while providing hierarchical access control. Performance analyses and simulations conducted with respect to computation and communication overheads indicate that our proposed IGK scheme is more efficient than the independent group key agreement scheme.
