Abstract:
Provided are an apparatus and method for transmitting a packet. The apparatus and method indicate a policy with respect to an acknowledgement packet and a retransmission packet, which correspond to the type of data to be transmitted, in a packet included in the data. The apparatus includes a Media Access Control (MAC) control unit which determines the type of packet to be transmitted, and sets the packet to indicate an acknowledgement policy and a retransmission policy with respect to the packet; and a communication unit which transmits the packet.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a structure of a transmission packet for a link adaptation mechanism that can efficiently transmits/receives uncompressed data using a link adaptation mechanism in a high-frequency wireless communication, and an apparatus and method of transmitting/receiving a packet using the same. According to an aspect of the invention, a structure of a transmission packet for a link adaptation mechanism includes a payload having a plurality of data units obtained through error correction encoding of uncompressed data at a predetermined coding rate, an MAC header being added to the payload and having a link adaptation field and a link adaptation extension field expressing presence/absence of the link adaptation field for transmission/reception of the uncompressed data, and a PHY header being added to the MAC header and including information about the coding rate and information about usability of an unequal error protection mode.
Abstract:
A method for intracellular delivery of single proteins or other cargo molecules by encapsulation within nanocapsules formed by interfacial polymerization of one or more types of monomers and selected protease cleavable cross-linkers is provided. The thin positively charged capsules are readily brought into the cytosol of target cells by endocytosis. The capsules are degraded by the action of endogenous proteases or co-delivered proteases on the cross-linkers releasing the functional cargo unaltered. The cross-linkers can be adapted to be cleavable by specific enzymes selected from available intracellular enzymes within the target cell or co-delivered or self-cleaving when the cargo itself is a protease. The nanocapsules produced by the methods have been shown to have long-term stability, high cell penetration capability, low toxicity and efficient protease-modulated specific degradability without affecting cargo protein function.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for performing a handover in high frequency wireless communications are provided. A device for performing a handover in a wireless network, includes a priority order list including a priority order for becoming a coordinator, a handover controller making a handover request to a selected device existing on the network based on the priority order, and a transceiver transmitting network information of the device performing the handover according to the handover request.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for a coordinator handover in high frequency bandwidth wireless communication are provided. The apparatus having the coordinator includes a device priority list that records the priority of devices that can act as a coordinator, a handover controller that requests a handover to a selected device by referring to the device priority list, and a transceiver that transmits network information to the device according to the handover.
Abstract:
A wireless network system and a method of transmitting/receiving data over a wireless network, and more particularly, for transmitting/receiving data over a wireless network capable of allowing a station that has not received a beacon frame or has received a damaged beacon frame among stations performing wireless communication in a high-frequency band to acquire schedule information in a super frame. A wireless network coordinator according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention includes: a media access control (MAC) unit that generates a beacon frame for forming a super frame including one or more channel time blocks; a band managing unit that allows a station on a network to set a specific channel time block among the channel time blocks to a period in which a packet including a predetermined control command is transmitted or received; and a transmitting unit that transmits the beacon frame including information on the setting through a predetermined communication channel.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method of enhancing a block Ack in a WLAN is disclosed. The apparatus includes a frame verification module receiving a plurality of data frames and selecting erroneous frames, a sequence control mapping module mapping sequence numbers of the selected frames with spoofing numbers, and a frame combining module combining the mapped frames with other sequence frames and transmitting the combined frames. The data frames include spoofing sequence control frames with which the spoofing sequence numbers are mapped.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for efficiently retransmitting data in a wireless network environment are provided. The method includes transmitting a block comprising one or more data frames to a terminal, receiving an acknowledgement of receipt of the block from the terminal, and retransmitting a block comprising data frames that have not yet been received by the terminal to the terminal by referencing the acknowledgement of receipt. Accordingly, it is possible to enhance overall throughput by reducing receipt acknowledgement time during a data retransmission operation.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for efficiently transmitting a data frame in a communication network, such as a wireless local area network (WLAN), a power line communication (PLC) network, or the like. A transmitter forms one expansion frame using a plurality of frames, transmits a plurality of generated expansion frames to a receiver, requests a block acknowledgement (ACK) frame for the transmitted expansion frames, and, after receiving the block ACK frame, re-transmits an expansion frame having an error by changing its transmission parameter.
