Abstract:
A location recognition system and method using stereophonic sound, the system having a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter uses the stereophonic sound and transmits location tracking information of an object. The transmitter includes a sound detector which detects a sound of the object and converts the detected sound to an electrical signal; a data converter which converts the electrical signal converted by the sound detector, to acoustic data; and a first communication interface which transmits the acoustic data converted by the data converter and the location tracking information to the receiver. A user can immediately recognize the location of the transmitter which transmits the location tracking information and is the target of the location tracking. Therefore, the mutual communications between the transmitter and the receiver which receives the location tracking information can be smoothly carried out.
Abstract:
A method and system for authenticating a pay-per-use service using an extensible authentication protocol (EAP). The method includes requesting a client to provide an EAP ID to be used in the service when a service request signal is received from a client; transmitting an EAP payment method (EAP_CC) request signal for requesting management information of the client when the EAP ID is received; after receiving an EAP_CC response signal that includes the management information of the client, retransmitting the EAP_CC response signal to an authentication/authorization/accounting (AAA) backend server that possesses the management information of the client; and after receiving an EAP_CC approval signal for approving the service request of the client from the AAA backend server, retransmitting the EAP_CC approval signal to the client. According to the method, a user can perform an authentication of the pay-per-use service even if the user is a non-subscriber of a specified service.
Abstract:
A handover method of a mobile terminal device in a wireless local area network (WLAN) includes a mobile terminal device and at least two wireless access points (APs) which communicate with the mobile terminal device using particular radio resources. The mobile terminal device communicates with a wireless AP via a first radio resource, and receives signals from wireless APs via a second radio resource. The mobile terminal device arranges and stores the signals received from the wireless APs in a certain order of size. The mobile terminal device determines an AP for the handover by sequentially searching the stored APs when intensity of the signal received via the first radio resource is smaller than a predetermined value.
Abstract:
A service handover control apparatus and a method using the apparatus are provided. The service handover control apparatus includes a service handover management unit collecting information associated with a transmitting terminal and a wireless access network, which operate based on an Internet Protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS), and outputting a control signal which controls service handovers of the transmitting terminal and the receiving terminal based on the collected information; and a service handover controller providing the service handover management unit with the information associated with the transmitting terminal and the receiving terminal, and controlling the service handovers of the transmitting terminal and the receiving terminal based on the control signal.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of controlling a home hub in a virtual group that may provide a geographical boundary about the virtual group by associating an identifier of a network of a virtual group included in an access point list with a name of the virtual group and a name of the home hub managing the virtual group, and may provide a terminal which moves to a visited virtual group with information about a network of the visited virtual group, thereby facilitating recognition of a virtual group and content sharing.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting/receiving a frame between a portable terminal and a base station in a wireless broadband Internet network are provided. More particularly, a method of transmitting/receiving frames can include activating a session between the portable terminal and the base station, removing at least one header information field included in an Internet protocol (IP) datagram after activating the session, adding a network header which sets a predetermined transport connection identifier (TCID) to the IP datagram, generating the frame, and transmitting the generated frame via the activated session. Preferably, the frame is generated in any one of the portable terminal and the base station, and transmitted to the other one of the portable terminal and the base station.
Abstract:
A target node and a communication method of using a target node that is configured to prefetch a segment of content in a Content-Centric Network (CCN) are provided. A communication method involving a target node configured to prefetch a segment of content in a Content-Centric Network (CCN) involves: receiving, from a previous node, a predetermined content-request packet requesting a predetermined segment of a content; determining a prefetching window size based on a number of segments in response to the predetermined content-request packet, the segments being prefetched based on a name of the content; generating a content-request packet that requests each of the segments based on the prefetching window size; and transmitting the generated content-request packet to a next node.
Abstract:
Provided are a content source node and a first content router and a second content router in a content centric network (CCN), and a communication method thereof. The technology described herein may reduce the updating of routing information due to a movement of a mobile source node and the corresponding overhead, thereby reducing a rate of using an overall network resource by adding routing information, that is, partially updating the routing information of the corresponding mobile source node for content routers on a route through which the mobile source node moves.
Abstract:
The status of a driver is monitored by facial images captured by a camera mounted on the steering wheel of a vehicle. The captured image is tilt corrected by a steering angle. The status of the driver can be monitored efficiently.
