In Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) system, the cell capacity is defined as the number of available channels in a cell, which is limited by the interferences. When a new call is accepted at its home cell, this adds the interference to the home and its neighboring cells. This paper proposes a call admission control based on mobile transmission power prediction. The home cell has enough capacity to admit new call and if home cell would have admitted a new call, it calculates the mobile transmission power. Also, its neighboring cell can predict the amount of interference using the predicted mobile transmission power. Thus, the new mobile is accepted by its home cell if QoS(Quality Of Service) is guaranteed in its neighboring cells. The simulation result shows that the proposed scheme largely reduces the outage probability in the neighboring cells.

The CBS and the AEAS functionalities are defined in cellular systems and T-DMB systems, respectively. In the case that communication facilities are disabled in indoor environments, it is impossible for the residents to receive the emergency messages. In this paper, a novel collaborative technology of intelligent mobile robots is proposed, which relies on cooperative communications among the intelligent mobile robots. In order to improve the performance, the intelligent mobile robots exploit their location information. Simulation results confirm that the proposed method is very suitable for reliable emergency alert broadcast.

A moving network is the usage model that provides the mobile stations to the communication service via the mobile relay deployed in the high-speed vehicle. The mobile relay periodically performs the signal strength measurement of the neighbor base stations to select the target base station during the handover procedure. The mobile stations experience the service disruption during the measurement of the mobile relay. In this paper, we propose the estimation based scanning method to overcome the service disruption of the mobile stations connected via the mobile relay. In the proposed method, mobile stations subordinated in the mobile relay periodically measure the signal strength of neighbor base stations in order to perform handover. The measured signal strength is used to estimate the signal strength between the mobile relay and the neighbor base station. We performed simulations in order to evaluate the performance of the proposed method in terms of the estimation accuracy and the overhead due to the exchange of channel information. By the simulation result, The estimation error is less than 4dBm when more than 6 mobile stations are used for the estimation. The overhead caused by the proposed method is less than that caused by the direct measurement of the mobile relay when the data rate is more than 8Mbps.

In mobile Internet environment, providing multicast requires much more complex mechanism comparing with the unicast Mobile IP routing protocol. This is because multicast datagrams are sent to a group address that do not belong to a specific network. The IETF Mobile IP suggested two approaches for mobile multicasting, namely remote subscription and hi-directional tunneling. In remote subscription, a mobile node may join a group via a local multicast router on the visited subnet. Therefore remote subscription may cause much datagram loss while reconstructing the delivery tee. In bi-directional tunneling, a mobile node may join a group via a hi-directional tunnel to its home agent. Bi-directional tunneling may suffer from inefficient routing. In this paper, we proposed a new mobile multicasting protocol, Mobile If Multicast using Local Broadcast(MIMLB) which can receive multicast datagrams as fast as possible and optimize routing path for multicast delivery. The MIMLB protocol uses hi-directional tunneling to receive multicast datagrams. And the MIMLB protocol can resolve datagram duplicated problem and optimize routing path by using local broadcast. Simulation results show that MIMLB reduces delivery path length and optimizes multicast routing path when a mobile nod? moves into a foreign network.

Location Registration and deregistration is necessary to mobility management in a Mobile Communication networks when a mobile phone moves between location registration areas. After considering several deregistration schemes, a sample scheme that eliminate network traffic is chosen. However, this scheme may delete valid registration record, so the size of location registration database must be sufficiently large to ensure low probability that a valid records are deleted. This paper describes an analytic model to determine the size of location registration database for a location registration area in this simple scheme. The simulation results of analytic model show that the size of database must 3-5 times than the expected number of mobile phones in a location registration area.(Mobile, Communications, Location, Deregistration, Database)

It is widely accepted that high user densities in mobile multimedia environments can only be achieved with micro- and pico-cell. The smaller cell size causes frequent handovers between cells, and decreases permissible handover processing delay. This may result in the handover failure, in addition to the loss of some packets during the handover. In these cases, re-transmission is needed in order to compensate errors, which in turn triggers a rapid degradation of throughput. In this paper, we propose a new handover scheme for the next generation mobile communication systems, in which the handover setup process is done in advance before a handover request by predicting the handover cell based on mobile terminal's current position and moving direction. Simulation is performed in order to analyze the handover failure rate and packet loss rate. Simulation results show that our proposed method provides a better performance than the conventional method.

In the paper, we propose a new reliable technique for measuring food intake based on image automatically without user intervention. First, food and bowl image before and after meal is obtained by user. The food and the bowl are divided into each region by the K-means clustering, Otsu algorithm, Morphology, etc. And the volume of food is measured by a proportional expression based on the information of the container such as it's entrance diameter, depth, and bottom diameter. Finally, our method calculates the volume of the consumed food by the difference between before and after meal. The proposed technique has higher accuracy than existing method for measuring food intake automatically. The experiment result shows that the average error rate is up to 7% for three types of containers. Computer simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm is a convenient and accurate method of measuring the food intake.

Recently, Proxy Mobile IPv6(PMIPv6) networks have been drawing attention as the mobility management protocol that uses limited wireless resources effectively. And the multicast, which is a core technology of the Internet broadcast system such as mobile IPTV, has been widely discussed mainly based on PMIPv6 network. However, PMIPv6-based multicast cannot support the global mobility directly between different PMIPv6 domains because PMIPv6 is basically designed for local mobility in single PMIPv6 domain. Moreover, PMIPv6-based multicast causes the disconnection of services because it does not solve the packet loss problem during binding and group joining procedure. In this paper, we propose a global mobility scheme that supports the seamless multicast service in PMIPv6 networks. The proposed scheme supports the global mobility due to the addition of extra signalling messages between LMAs. Also, it achieves low latency because it performs fast binding and group joining procedure. We present the simulation results which show that the proposed scheme achieves the global mobility with low latency through the NS-2 simulation.

Wireless LAN(WLAN) is a rather mature communication technology connecting mobile terminals. IEEE 802.11 is a representative protocol among WLAN technologies. With the rising popularity of delay-sensitive real-time multimedia applications(video, voice and data) in IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN, it is important to study the MAC layer delay performance of WLANs. In this paper, performance for packet delay that recently have been proposed schemes is analysed in wireless LAN and proved performance results via simulation.
