We propose a spectral-efficient coordinated direct and relayed transmission (CDRT) scheme for a relay-assisted downlink system with two users. The proposed scheme is based on backscatter communication (BC) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique. With the proposed BC-NOMA-CDRT scheme, both users can receive one packet within one time slot. In contrast, in existing NOMA-CDRT schemes, the far user is only able to receive one packet in two time slots due to the half-duplex operation of the relay. We investigate the outage of the BC-NOMA-CDRT scheme, and derive the outage probability expressions in closed-form based on Gamma distribution approximation and Gaussian approximation. Numerical results show that the analytical results are accurate and the BC-NOMA-CDRT scheme outperforms the conventional NOMA-CDRT significantly.

In digital TV broadcasting, such as terrestrial, cable, satellite, and IPTV, the head-end of digital TV broadcasting has a more complicated transmission structure than that of analog TV broadcasting. Furthermore, digital TV broadcasting has a feature that supports multiplex models, such as Multiple Program Transport Stream (MPTS). Therefore, the purpose of our work was to design and examine a more efficient new system of emergency alert message transmission to support the digital TV broadcasting environments. Digital TV broadcasting is the IP generation or RF transmission of 8-VSB, QAM, and QPSK modulated through a multiplexer or re-multiplexer multiplexed stream as a MPEG-2 Transport Stream after content encoding. The new system proposed in this paper transmits an emergency alert message without scrambling after replacing the PID and payload of the -packet with the message prototype in the TS stream from the multiplexer. If we need to transmit an emergency alert message under digital TV broadcasting services, then the receiver first checks the PID of each packet in the TS stream for the emergency alert message. Next, if a packet is determined to be an emergency alert message, then the set-top box displays the message on the TV screen using its function of On Screen Display, or the PC based software displays the message on the monitor screen using its function of overlay with user interface if the packet is found to be an emergency alert message. We have designed an emergency alert message protocol and a system model. By experiments and analysis of the system, we concluded that the system achieved efficiency and the ability to send and receive emergency alert messages using the system under different digital TV broadcasting service environments.

센서 네트워크를 위한 MAC 프로토콜들은 전력 소모를 최소화하기 위해 낮은 듀티 사이클(Duty Cycle)을 사용한다. 그 중에서 RMAC [4]의 경우 Pioneer(PION) 프레임을 이용하여 한 주기 내에 여러 홉을 전송한다. 본 논문에서는 HE-MAC(Hop-Extended MAC)이라는 홉 연장 프로토콜을 제안한다. HE-MAC의 데이터 전송은 기존 RMAC과는 달리 한 주기 내에 전달될 수 있는 최대 홉 수 정보가 포함된 Explorer(EXP)를 이용하여 이루어진다. EXP의 정보와 Ready-to-Receive(RTR) 상태를 이용하여 RMAC에 비해 2홉을 늘림으로써 평균 전송 지연 시간을 감소시킨다. 또한, 적응적 슬립을 통하여 불필요한 전력 소모를 최소화할 뿐만 아니라 RMAC에서 나타나는 잦은 트래픽(Traffic)으로 인한 패킷 역전 문제를 해결한다. HE-MAC의 패킷 전송 지연시간을 수학적으로 분석하였으며, ns-2를 이용한 모의실험을 통해 성능평가를 하였다. 300개의 노드가 배치된 랜덤 토폴로지에서 HE-MAC은 RMAC에 비해 전력 소모량과 평균 전승 지연 시간을 14%, 20%만큼 감소시킨다.

In this paper, we present a retransmission power adjustment (RPA) scheme for DS/SSMA ALOHA packet radio systems with packet combining. In the proposed RPA scheme, retransmission power is adjusted in such a way that the erroneously-received packet can be recovered with a minimized interference to other user packets. We analyze the performance of the system with the RPA by employing the equilibrium point analysis (EPA), and confirm that the results obtained from the EPA are very close to the simulation results in low power cases. Simulation results demonstrate that the RPA scheme brings forth performance gain in the throughput and the average delay while saving a significant amount of transmission power. We also investigate the stability of the system from the EPA results, and conclude that the system becomes stable as the offered load increases or the level of retransmission power decreases.

Two multiple access protocols are proposed for a multichannel WDM optical fibre local area network or metropolitan area network in which users are interconnected using a passive star topology. Each user has a single tunable transmitter and a single tunable receiver. A transmitter sends a control packet before its data packet transmission so that its intended receivers can tune to the proper data channel wavelength. The maximum throughput of the proposed protocols are independent of the effective normalized propagation delay which may include the transmitter and receiver tuning times and the processing delays. The maximum throughputs of the protocols are analyzed and compared with those of the existing ones by numerical examples. The message delay of the R- Aloha/synchronous N-server switch protocol which is suitable for the queued users is also analyzed.

IEEE 802.11와 같은 CSMA 무선 네트워크에서 브로드캐스트 전송을 안정성 있게 신뢰적으로 수행하기 위해, 브로드캐스트 송신 노드는 복수의 수신자들에게 충돌 없는 전송을 할 수 있도록 해야 하며 복수 수신자들의 패킷 수신 상태를 유지해야 한다. 본 논문은 무선 네트워크에서 안정적이고 신뢰적인 브로드캐스트를 수행하기 위한 효율적인 피드백 방법인 2-폴링 피드백을 제안한다. 이 방법에서 송신 노드는 두 개의 수신자 노드의 채널 상태를 확인한 후 브로드캐스트 전송을 수행한다. 본 논문은 브로드캐스트 전송을 위한 피드백 방법의 클래스를 분류하고 이들에 대해 성능 분석을 수행한다. 제안한 2-폴링 피드백 방법이 기존 피드백 방법보다 패킷 전송 지연시간과 패킷 안정화 시간 측면에서 우수함을 보인다. 2-폴링 방법은 전체-폴링 방법보다 복잡도가 낮으며, 1-폴링 방법과 비교할 때는 동일한 복잡도에 패킷 안정화 시간이 반 정도 감소함을 알 수 있다.

Traditionally, the scarce and expensive resources in communication networks has been the bandwidth of transmission facilities; accordingly, the techniques used for networking and switching have been chosen so as to optimize the efficient use of that resource. One of them is the packet switching for data communications, which is much different from the circuit switching. It allows multiple users to share the data network facilities and bandwidth, rather than providing specific amounts of dedicated bandwidth to each users. One main challenge therefore has been to design and build cost-effective packet switching networks. In this paper, we develop a mathematical programming medel and heuristic algorithm for designing the packet switching networks with hop-count constraints. To develop an efficient heuristic, we apply the Lagrangian relaxation method. Some valid inequalities, which have been known as the tight constraints, are considered to improve the bound for Lagrangian sub-problem. The computational experiments show that the performance of the proposed heuristic is very satisfactory in both the speed and the quality of design solutions generated.

We propose a new estimation method for rate adjustment in the face of a packet loss in the TFRC protocol, a TCP-Friendly congestion control protocol for UDP flows. Previous methods respond in a sensitive way to a single packet loss, resulting in oscillatory transmission behavior. This is an undesirable for multimedia services demanding constant bandwidth. The proposed TFRC provides more smooth and fair (against TCP flows) transmission through collective response based on multiple packets loss events. We show our "Exponential smoothing method" performs better than known "Weight smoothing method" in terms of smoothness and fairness.

Three protocols based on the slotted Aloha technique are proposed for very high-speed optical fiber local area networks using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) passive star topology and the throughputs and delays are derived. For getting a high probability in successful transmission of control packets determining the transmission of a data packet, we adopt control mini slot groups in these protocols. The retransmission probability is also considered in analysis. Both throughput and delay of three protocols are compared and analyzed by varying the number of control solt groups, the retransmission probability the length of a data packet and the number of channels. The numerical analysis shows that the proposed protocols adopted the control slot groups give the increase of throughput and the decrease of delay.

Data packets from sensor nodes scattered over measuring fields are generally forwarding to the sink node, which may be connected to the wired networks, in a wireless sensor network. So many data packets are gathered near the sink node, resulting in significant data packet collisions and severe transmission latency. In an event detection application such as object tracking and military, bursty data is generated when an event occurs. So many data packet should be transmitted in a limited time to the sink node. In this paper, we present a delay efficient and bursty traffic friendly MAC protocol called DEBF-MAC protocol for wireless sensor networks. The DEBF-MAC uses a slot-reserved mechanism and sleep period control method to send multiple data packets efficiently in an operational cycle time. Our simulation results show that DEBF-MAC outperforms DW-MAC and SR-MAC in terms of energy consumption and transmission delay.
