摘要:
A media access control method of a wireless sensor network (WSN) is provided. The media access control method includes first sensor nodes, existing in a non-overlapping area where clusters do not overlap, media-accessing with a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) method and communicating with a Cluster head (CH) in a first section. Further, and the method includes second sensor nodes, existing in an overlapping area where the clusters overlap, media-accessing with a contention-based method and communicating with the CH in a second section. Because communication between nodes of the non-overlapping area where the clusters do not overlap, uses a reservation-based TDMA method, collision between nodes can be prevented, and because communication between nodes of the overlapping area where the clusters overlap, uses a contention-based CSMA/CA method, interference between neighboring clusters can be prevented.
摘要:
A clustering method of a wireless sensor network is provided to minimize energy consumption. The clustering method includes the operations of determining a number of initial nodes within radio range of ordinary node, the ordinary nodes existing within radio range of a cluster head, and setting an ordinary node having a highest number of initial nodes among the ordinary nodes in the radio range of the cluster head, as a gateway. Because the number of usually large energy consuming cluster heads and gateways can be minimized, energy efficiency of wireless sensor network increases.

摘要:
A method and apparatus that provide additional information on a digital broadcast to home network devices in a home network, the method including receiving the additional information on a digital broadcast from an external network; determining at least one device among the home network devices as a receiving device of the additional information; and transmitting the additional information to the receiving device.
摘要:
A method and an apparatus for transmitting additional information on digital broadcasting to an IPTV by using a home gateway are provided. The additional information on a digital broadcast program is received through an IP based home network, and a DVBSTP packet is created by using the received additional information, and the packet is transmitted to the home network. Accordingly, a user can immediately obtain various pieces of information on a current broadcast program or a next broadcast program, and thus scheduled recording can be accurately carried out by using information on a broadcast time of the broadcast program.

Disclosed are information recording/reading methods. The information recording method includes forming file data and metadata regarding the file data into recording information; dividing a predetermined recording medium into a plurality of zones when a recording mode is set; and recording file data and metadata, which are to be additionally recorded, in different zones.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for displaying information on broadcasting contents are provided. The method includes: storing received information on an electronic program guide (EPG); generating meta-data of recorded broadcasting contents based on the EPG information and storing the meta-data; and displaying the EPG information and information on the recorded broadcasting contents based on the meta-data on a screen.

摘要:
An integer coding method supporting diverse frame sizes and a coder-decoder (CODEC) implementing the method are provided. Maximum sample values are detected from a plurality of frames having different numbers of samples. The detected maximum sample values are normalized on the basis of a maximum sample value of the largest frame. A maximum sample value is detected from the normalized sample values. Multiples are determined according to the size of each frame on the basis of the detected maximum sample value and a sample value of each frame is multiplied by the multiples to generate an integer code.
摘要:
A contents reproducing method and apparatus are provided. The method of reproducing a group of contents includes: obtaining information on a plurality of pieces of contents belonging to a group to be reproduced; reading at least a part of the contents to be reproduced and buffering the part in a decoding buffer before the contents currently being reproduced are completely reproduced based on the obtained information; and seamlessly reproducing the plurality of pieces of contents based on data of the decoding buffer.
