Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for managing network resources of a wireless terminal in a heterogeneous network environment and the method for managing network resources includes: searching for one or more networks which are accessible in the heterogeneous network environment; acquiring cycle information of the networks searched through the network searching; determining coexistence management cycles of the searched networks based on the cycle information; allocating one or more networks to be used in data transmission among the networks searched according to the coexistence management cycle and determining transmission management cycles of one or more allocated networks; and managing a resource of the searched network according to the coexistence management cycle and the transmission management cycle.
Abstract:
Provided is a hidden node detection method and apparatus in a wireless communication system, the apparatus including a sensing unit to sense a first communication device transmitting a data signal from among a plurality of communication devices sharing a wireless channel, a transmitter to generate a reception notification signal in response to the sensing, and transmit the reception notification signal to the a plurality of communication devices through a band identical to a transmission band of the data signal, and a controller to prevent a collision with the data signal transmitted from the first communication device through the wireless channel by delaying processing of a data transmission request when the data transmission request is input from a second communication device among the plurality of communication devices while maintaining the transmitting of the reception notification signal.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method of managing an error in wireless transmission, and an apparatus thereof, and more particularly, a method of managing an error in multicast or broadcast transmission, and an apparatus thereof. The method of managing an error in multicast or broadcast transmission disclosed in the present invention includes: receiving data multicasted or broadcasted to a plurality of receivers; determining whether the data is normally received; selecting a random resource among wireless resources through which an acknowledgement indicating whether the data is normally received is to be transmitted; and transmitting the acknowledgement indicating whether the data is normally received through the selected random resource.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a channel information providing method, a channel information providing database server, and a channel information providing system which receive channel quality information from a cognitive radio terminal which receives channel information based on position information and efficiently use channels using the received information. A channel information providing method which uses a database server to provide channel information to a cognitive radio terminal based on position information includes providing channel information to at least one cognitive radio terminal; receiving collected information regarding a quality of the channel from the at least one cognitive radio terminal; and determining to update the channel information provided in the providing using the information received in the receiving.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a contention based channel occupying method in a wireless network using a plurality of channels, including: acquiring, by terminals that are incapable of transmitting a data frame through primary contention, occupation channel information from a terminal that transmits the data frame through the primary contention; verifying, by the terminals, an occupiable channel based on the occupation channel information; and performing, by the terminals, secondary contention in the occupiable channel.
Abstract:
To perform communication in a cognitive radio network, a cognitive radio apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment includes: an estimation module configured to generate a channel estimation signal to be transmitted to a predetermined reception apparatus positioned in a predetermined channel in the case of selecting the predetermined channel from among multiple channels; a communication module configured to transmit the channel estimation signal to the predetermined reception apparatus, and to receive a channel response signal from the predetermined reception apparatus; and a control module configured to control the communication module so that at least one of a communication signal set with respect to the predetermined channel and a variable communication signal obtained by varying the communication signal is transmitted to the predetermined reception apparatus, when it is determined that the predetermined channel is positioned in a deep fading section based on the channel response signal.
Abstract:
A cognitive radio mesh node may include at least one directional antenna, at least one transceiver to transmit and receive data using the at least one directional antenna, and a processor to determine a channel for performing communication for a cognitive radio mesh network based on a geolocation database and to control the at least one transceiver based on the determined channel.
