The battery consumption and the wireless communication pattern were analyzed for the low power and the improvement of channel interferences between of Zigbee networks and WPAN(Wireless Personal Area Network). The communication patterns considering end device's battery saving during channel searching period were analyzed for low power consumption topology of Zigbee dynamic ad-hoc characteristics. And, the communication patterns were analyzed due to channel interferences between WLAN and Random Back off of Zigbee, too. As a result, the communication patterns of Zigbee's coordinator and end devices is alleviated for the longer battery life time of Zigbee's end device due to Zigbee's end device setting techniques.

One of very essential techniques for enlarging lifetime of energy-constrained wireless personal area network (WPAN) devices is energy-efficient transmission technique. If the WPAN is operated based on a TDMA protocol, the satisfaction of QoS requirements at each allocated time slot is another important factor to be considered. We therefore propose an energy-efficient transmission scheme for WPANs operating with a contention-free medium access protocol such as TDMA, as well as satisfying QoS requirement. The proposed algorithm determines the optimum combination of transmit power, physical data rate and fragment size required to simultaneously minimize the energy consumption and satisfy the required QoS in each assigned time duration, considering all the possible energy-minimization related parameters. The proposed algorithm demonstrated the improved performance results in terms of throughput and energy consumption via computer simulation.

ZigBee is the low power, low cost and low data rate wireless personal area network(LR-WPAN) standard. The Directed-Messaging is the protocol which improves the energy efficiency through reducing the redundant message transmission by transmitting messages with directional information toward the specified sub-network area in wireless sensor network using broadcasting. In this paper, we design and implement the experimental grid sensor network using ZigBee modified by the Directed-Messaging for the energy efficiency improvement. The experimental sensor network in this paper is configured with Nano24 supporting the ADV message and the routing management module modified to use the directional information. The energy efficiency improvement of the experimental sensor-network by evaluating the experimental results according to transmitting ADV message.

IEEE 802.15.4 기반의 무선 PAN(WPAN: Wireless Personal Area Network)환경에서 기존에 제안된 전송 전력 제어(TPC: Transmission Power Control) 알고리즘은 수신 신호의 세기를 기반으로 반복 전송을 통하여 적합한 최소 전송 전력을 결정하는 방법으로 진행되어 왔다. 이러한 방법은 통신 채널의 변화가 잦은 지역에서는 재전송률이 높아지고 전송 품질이 떨어지는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 IEEE 80215.4에서 제공하는 링크 품질 지표(LQI: Link quality indicator)값을 바탕으로 최소 전송 전력을 결정하여 재전송률을 줄이고, 통신 채널 변화에 보다 능동적으로 대응할 수 있는 새로운 전송 진력 제어 방법을 제안하고자 한다.

In this paper, we propose an adaptive beacon scheduling algorithm to control a reception period of actual data according to variation of amount of traffic in IEEE 802.15.4 LR-WPAN(Low Rate-Wireless Personal Area Network) with the cluster-tree topology. If a beacon interval is shortened, the amount of the traffic a node receives can be increased while consumption of the energy can be also increased. In this sense, we can achieve optimal on orgy consumption by controlling the beacon interval when the amount of data to be received is being decreased. The result of simulation using NS-2 shows that the proposed algorithm improves performances in terms of packet loss rate and end-to-end delay compared with algorithm using a fixed beacon interval. For a design of cluster-tree based LR-WPAN managing delay-sensitive services, the proposed algorithm and the associated results can be applied usefully.

KOINONIA is high-rate Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) technology, and is developed for multimedia traffic transmission in personal area. A KOINONIA piconet is a collection of one or more associated slaves under a single master. Efficient scheduling of a master for the traffic of slaves is essential to use channel effectively and to guarantee QoS of multimedia traffic. We propose a new scheduling algorithm to allocate channel time at desired intervals regardless of superframe length, and a Connection Admission Control(CAC) algorithm to regulate the number of traffics in a piconet. Our proposed algorithms have been shown to save channel time and to meet QoS requirements compared to the conventional weighted round-robin algorithm.

It is essential to investigate the structure and the main characteristics of BSN (Bio-Sensor Network) platform in built smart healthcare environment while designing healthy housing facilities. For this study, WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) data transmission technologies have been employed with medical sensors, and optimal medical devices would provide various Web 2.0 services by connecting to the WiBro network. The BSN platform normally recognizes in surroundings of WBAN (Wireless Body Area Network) or WPAN (Wireless Personal Area Network), and it is possible to manage sensor nodes by utilizing SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) and REST (REpresentational State Transfer). In addition, the feature of SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for mobile gateway is also included for being adapted to huge network structure. Finally, BSN platform will play a role as important clues for developing personal WSN service models for smart healthy housing properties.
