A Wi-Fi mesh network providing multi-hop wireless connections based on IEEE 802.11 PHY/MAC technology has recently received a significant attention as a network infrastructure that interconnects RFID systems and wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, the current IEEE 802.11 contention-based MAC protocol cannot fully utilize the network capacity due to eithor frame collisions or unused network resources. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-channel scheduling MAC (MCS-MAC) protocol for Wi-Fi mesh networks. Under the secondary interference model of Wi-Fi mesh networks, the MCS-MAC protocol can maximize the network throughput via activation of collision-free links that has a maximal link weight. Through the simulations, we show that the throughput of the MCS-MAC protocol is at least three times higher than that of existing MAC protocols in Wi-Fi mesh networks.

Wi-Fi Direct standard technology has been widely deployed on the recently manufactured products such as smart phone, smart monitor, TV, set-top box, and gaming console, and it was published from Wi-Fi Alliance with the name of Wi-Fi Peer-to-Peer Technical Specifications (v1.4, 2014) for direct connection on the wireless communication environment. However, the connection process of this standard needs 5 to 10 seconds so it can lead to user's inconvenience as well as long delay for connection. From the focus of that this problem was derived from long discovery process composed of Scan and Find, as a result, the proposed scheme on this paper modified and adapted Scan and Find processes with reassembling steps of them for reducing the connection delay. In addition, the analysis and experiments were progressed for the evaluations of the proposed scheme.

Corded telephone to the phone using a wireless phone as the trend to switch, free Wi-Fi-enabled mobile phones, netbooks, and mobile devices, are spreading rapidly. But wireless Internet phone calls using your existing Internet network to deliver Internet services because it has a vulnerability that will occur. Government agencies are using Voice over Internet Protocol(VoIP) calls from the current wired and wireless connection and usage is increasing. In this paper, we have discovered that the vulnerability of wireless internet Wi-Fi AP and the FMC administrative agencies, such as VoIP on your wireless device to study the vulnerability. Wi-Fi AP and the FMC is to analyze the vulnerability. VoIP call interception, attack, attack on the base of the experiment is the analysis. Security-enhanced VoIP call for a Wi-Fi AP and the FMC's defense against man-in-the-middle attacks and is the study of security measures.

In schools and corporate buildings, public WiFi Access Points are installed on the ceilings of hallways. In the case of an architectural structure in which a WiFi signal enters through a steel door made of a material with high signal attenuation, Internet connection is frequently cut off or fails when the door is closed. To solve this problem, our research implements an economical and portable WiFi extender using a Raspberry Pi and an auxiliary battery. Commercially available WiFi extenders have limitations in the location where the power plug is located, and WiFi extension using the WiFi hotspot function of an Android smartphone is possible only in some high-end models. However, because the proposed device can be installed at the position where the Wi-Fi reception signal is the best inside the door, the WiFi range can be extended while minimizing the possibility of damage to the original signal. Experimental results show that it is possible to eliminate the shadows of radio waves and to provide Internet services in the office when the door is closed, to the extent that web browsing and real-time video streaming for 720p are possible.

To enable the coexistence of Licensed Assisted Access (LAA) and Wi-Fi in 5 GHz unlicensed bands, a new channel access mechanism is proposed. Accounting for the fairness between LAA and Wi-Fi, the proposed mechanism finds the optimal transmission time ratio by adaptively adjusting the transmission durations for LAA and Wi-Fi. In addition, we propose a new analytical model for the distributed coordination function of IEEE 802.11 through some modifications of conventional analytical models for saturation and non-saturation loads. By computing the activity ratio of Wi-Fi, the proposed analytical model is able to control the time ratio between LAA and Wi-Fi, which is required for practical implementation of the proposed access mechanism. Through numerical simulations, the proposed channel access mechanism is compared with conventional methods in terms of throughput and utility.

Recently, indoor LBS has been attracting much attention because of its promising prospect. One of key technologies for its success is indoor location estimation. A popular one for indoor positioning is to find the location based on the strength of received Wi-Fi signals. Since the Wi-Fi services are currently prevalent, it can perform indoor positioning without any further infrastructure. However, it is found that its accuracy depends heavily on the surrounding radio environment. To alleviate this difficulty, we present a novel indoor position technique employing the geomagnetic characteristics as well as Wi-Fi signals. The geomagnetic characteristic is known to vary according to the location. Therefore, employing the geomagnetic signal in addition to Wi-Fi signals is expected to improve the location estimation accuracy.
