Abstract:
A decentralized scheduling method in a wireless ad hoc network is provided which includes grouping nodes in the network cluster by cluster, determining a cluster head of each cluster, and sequentially performing scheduling cluster by cluster. Accordingly, it is possible to provide an efficient cluster-based scheduling method which quickly adapts to changes and reduces power consumption.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a point-to-point communication method that performs mutual authentication and creates link keys without using a master key. The point-to-point communication method can include authentication by exchanging authentication information between a first node and a second node from among the plural nodes; and having each of the first node and the second node create a link key, after the authentication is completed. During the authentication, the authentication information uses a secret key of a corresponding coordinator (node).
Abstract:
A hybrid virtual multiple-input multiple-output (V-MIMO) transmission method of a management node in a wireless ad-hoc network in which a transmission path from a source node to a destination node is divided into one or more sections is provided. The hybrid V-MIMO transmission method includes obtaining one or more pieces of node information of one or more nodes by transmitting an information request message to the nodes in response to a transmission request message for data transmission from the source node to the destination node; setting a shortest path (SP) from the source node to the destination node based on the obtained node information; determining transmission schemes individually for nodes present on the SP; issuing a transmission preparation request by transmitting the determined transmission schemes to the respective corresponding nodes; and transmitting a transmission start message to the source node in response to transmission ready responses from the respective nodes.
Abstract:
Provided is a resource allocation method performed in a wireless network formed of a plurality of nodes, the resource allocation method including the operations of forming clusters and electing cluster heads respectively for the clusters; determining whether a node from among the plurality of nodes forming the wireless network is an edge node; if the node is not the edge node according to a result of the determining, collecting link information related to other nodes in a cluster that comprises the node, and delivering the link information to a cluster head of the cluster; and if the node is the edge node according to a result of the determining, otherwise, obtaining link information and scheduling information from an edge node of another cluster within a communication range with the cluster comprising the edge node, and delivering the link information and scheduling information to the cluster head. The resource allocation method decentralizes a load of calculations to several nodes, wherein the load may be centralized to one node in a large ad-hoc network, so that an energy efficiency of the node may be increased, and since the several nodes sequentially perform simple calculation, a total of the resource allocation time may be reduced.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of performing a routing and allocating a resource in a wireless sensor network. The method includes electing one or more cluster heads, each representing each of one or more clusters comprised of a plurality of sensor nodes, selecting a routing path between the cluster heads and the plurality of sensor nodes, selecting a frame length based on elements and distribution methods of the wireless sensor network and the routing path, forming a time slot resource allocation table for communication between the cluster heads, and exchanging the time slot resource allocation table between the cluster heads separated by one hop. The present invention can enhance the reliability of the wireless sensor network and QoS by effectively performing routing and allocating resources in such a manner that various data requirements can be satisfied.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method whereby the mobile station and a visitor location register create and share a ciphering key and an integrity key in order to directly authenticate each other. The communication method in a mobile communication system such as this includes registering the mobile station with the home location register; and having the mobile station and the visitor location register directly authenticate each other and mutually share a ciphering key and an integrity when the mobile station moves to the visitor location register.
