Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus to detect congestion of a network using a receiver of a communication system. The apparatus includes a transport layer information extraction unit configured to extract transmission control protocol frame information from information that is received from a lower layer. The apparatus also includes a congestion information filtering unit configured to identify and output a packet to determine congestion in the transmission control protocol frame information. The apparatus further includes a congestion detection unit configured to determine whether the network is congested using the packet to determine congestion. The apparatus includes a congestion information output unit configured to, upon detecting congestion in the network, deliver information indicating the detection of the congestion in the network to an operating system or other applications.
Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for connecting to an Access Point (AP) based on beacon information in a wireless communication system. To this end, a wireless device predicts an interference condition from each of a plurality of APs based on information acquired by a received beacon, selects one of the plurality of APs, taking the predicted interference condition into account, and attempts connection to the selected AP.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a sensor network, Machine Type Communication (MTC), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, and technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the above technologies, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method and a User Equipment (UE) for controlling access to location information about the UE are provided. The UE includes a controller configured, upon sensing access to the location information about the UE by an application operating in an operating system (OS) of the UE, to match a rule defining access authorization of the application to the location information, and to determine whether to allow or deny access of the application to the location information based on the access authorization, and a display configured to display a screen under control of the controller.

Abstract:
The present disclosure dynamically selects an optimal parameter so as to stably stream an image without user's setting in a network environment. The present disclosure determines (schedules) a path to which a general packet is to be distributed based on a path cost indicator, and determines a symbol size and the number of source symbols, which minimize or sufficiently reduce a cost function.
