Abstract:
A received signal strength indicator is provided. The received signal strength indicator includes a plurality of differential amplifiers forming an amplifier chain for amplifying differential signals and a plurality of rectifiers for rectifying signals output from the plurality of differential amplifiers and the differential signals, and a low pass filter for combining the signals rectified by the plurality of rectifiers to output received signal strength. Each rectifier includes a class AB voltage-current converter for converting a differential voltage into a current, and two triode transistors.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for encoding a constant amplitude that is applied to a code division multiplexing communication system are provided. By dividing a data bit into a block unit, the receiving side can easily determine an error, and by reducing power consumption in outdoor wide area communication using a bit string of a small length in a basic unit of an input frame, efficiency can be improved, and thus a physical layer of a ubiquitous sensor network can be optimized.
Abstract:
A network managing apparatus and a transmission method thereof are provided. The transmission method includes: broadcasting a plurality of packets using a plurality of shared timeslots shared by a plurality of network nodes for downlink communication and a base channel; determining one or more missed packets that are not received by the plurality of network nodes among the plurality of packets; determining a distributor that is to transmit the one or more missed packets and a distribution timeslot and a distribution channel for transmission of the one or more missed packets; and broadcasting transmission schedule information including information on the distributor and information on the distribution timeslot and the distribution channel using the base channel.
Abstract:
A wireless communication method using a control channel between wireless communication devices including: exchanging profile information between a node and intermediate relay nodes therearound so as to allow the node to transmit/receive data to/from a destination node; determining, by the node, a first intermediate relay node using the profile information and determining a wireless communication mode with the first intermediate relay node; and transmitting/receiving data between the node and the first intermediate relay node by the determined wireless communication mode is provided.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for allocating a management resource of a channel of a node that is included in a wireless personal area network (WPAN) are provided. A resource of a channel performs communication with a specific node using a multi-superframe including a plurality of superframes, limits a position area of a time slot including a channel that is allocated to communication with a specific node to a predetermined superframe of the plurality of superframes, gives a logical connection ID to the time slot, and is allocated by matching the logical connection ID and a management resource that manages the time slot.
Abstract:
An apparatus for managing a channel resource by a node sets a channel hopping sequence and a channel hopping offset value which are to be used, divides an assigned time slot into a plurality of subslots, divides a data frame for transmission into a plurality of subframes, and selects a channel for transmitting the plurality of subframes in the plurality of subslots, respectively, by channel hopping based on the channel hopping sequence, the channel hopping offset value, the index of the time slot, and the index of a subslot for transmitting a subframe.
Abstract:
An end device transmits a request command for requesting a slot management to a coordinator, and receives a reply command including a result of the slot management request from the coordinator. Each of the request command and the reply command includes an allocation order for indicating a slot allocation interval request.
Abstract:
A multi-channel wireless network acquires reference time information that is commonly applied to all multi-channels and acquires packet receiving time information of a received packet on each channel basis based on the reference time information by spreading and applying the reference time information to each channel.
Abstract:
In a wireless sensor network, it is determined whether to multiplex a packet that is generated in a random node. When a packet is to be multiplexed, by multiplexing at least one packet, a frame of a first length is generated and transmitted. The frame of the first length includes a payload in which at least one of data portions including a header unit and a data unit having a second length smaller than the first length is multiplexed.
