| 20090254676 | METHOD FOR TRANSFERRING DATA FRAME END-TO-END USING VIRTUAL SYNCHRONIZATION ON LOCAL AREA NETWORK AND NETWORK DEVICES APPLYING THE SAME - A method for transferring data frame end-to-end in a local area network is provided. In the method, a virtual synch frame shaper is loaded on a frame transmission layer structure provided in end stations in transmitting and receiving sides, which transmits data frame passing through a plurality of Ethernet switches in the LAN. Then, slot counters, which are counted through the virtual synch frame shaper, are exchanged between the end stations, and the slot counters are synchronized. Afterward, the transmit time slot is allocated based on the synchronized slot counters for transmitting data frames between the end stations. Finally, data frames are transmitted based on the synchronized slot counters and the allocated transmit time slot. | 10-08-2009 |
| 20100268825 | SCHEDULING METHOD AND SCHEDULING INFORMATION SYNCHRONIZING METHOD IN WIRELESS AD HOC NETWORK - A decentralized scheduling method in a wireless ad hoc network is provided which includes grouping nodes in the network cluster by cluster, determining a cluster head of each cluster, and sequentially performing scheduling cluster by cluster. Accordingly, it is possible to provide an efficient cluster-based scheduling method which is quickly adapt to changes and reduces power consumption. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20100278156 | DATA COMMUNICATION METHOD USING BODY AREA NETWORK SUPERFRAME - There is provided a data communication method using a body area network superframe including an advertisement period, a contention medium access period, a beacon period, and a data transmit period, the data communication method including: broadcasting, by a coordinator node, predetermined information during the advertisement period; transmitting, by nodes, which wish to transmit data, the data only when carrier is not in use as a result of sensing the carrier after the contention medium access period is initiated and a predetermined backoff time elapses; broadcasting, by each of the nodes, periodic beacon signals during the beacon period; and transmitting, by each of the nodes, continuous data and periodic data during the data transmit period | 11-04-2010 |
| 20100284334 | ASYNCHRONOUS MULTI-CHANNEL ADAPTATION METHOD FOR WIRELESS AD-HOC NETWORK - There is provided an asynchronous multi-channel adaptation method. An asynchronous multi-channel adaptation method according to an aspect of the invention may include: a channel scanning operation in which a new node, participating in a wireless ad-hoc network, scans channels and selects a receiving channel thereof; and a receiving channel information transmission operation in which the new node transmits information on the selected receiving channel thereof to a neighboring node. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20100322289 | CONSTANT AMPLITUDE ENCODING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CODE DIVISION MULTIPLEXING COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Disclosed are an apparatus and method for constant amplitude encoding of a transmission signal in a CDM (Code Division Multiplexing) communication system. The apparatus for constant amplitude encoding of a transmission signal includes: an encoding module sequentially performing horizontal encoding and vertical encoding on an input signal; and a spreading and multiplexing module spreading the signal which has been encoded by the encoding module and multiplexing the spread signal in a vertical direction to output a data stream having a constant amplitude. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20110145378 | OPERATING METHOD OF NETWORK NODE OF NETWORK WITH TREE STRUCTURE BASED ON DISTRIBUTED ADDRESS ASSIGNMENT AND NETWORK FORMING METHOD - Provided is a method for operating a network node in a specific cluster of a tree-structured network based on distributed address assignment. In the method, a non-registered node is detected. A routing depth of the network node is determined. When the determined routing depth corresponds to a reference value, a sub cluster using a cluster address is generated, and the detected non-registered node is registered as a child node in the generated sub cluster using an internal address. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20110149767 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING NODE IDENTIFICATION - Provided is a method and system for managing an identification (ID) of a widely moved sensor node. The method includes recognizing, at a gateway, a node to check an ID of the node, allocating an ID of the gateway as the ID of the node when the ID of the node checked by the gateway is null, sending the ID of the node to a management server when the ID of the node checked by the gateway is not null and is different from the ID of the gateway, and when a new ID is received from the management server, allocating the new ID as the ID of the node. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110149858 | MESH ROUTING METHOD AND MESH ROUTING APPARATUS IN BEACON ENABLED WIRELESS AD-HOC NETWORKS - There is provided a mesh routing method in beacon-enabled wireless AD-HOC networks that includes: broadcasting, by nodes constituting a wireless AD-HOC network, a beacon message loading neighbor node information on a beacon payload; managing, by a node receiving the broadcasted beacon message, its own neighbor node table by extracting the neighbor node information loaded on the beacon payload; and performing, by a source node attempting to transmit data or commands, mesh routing on the basis of its own neighbor node table. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110151793 | ADAPTIVE COLLISION AVOIDANCE APPARATUS AND METHOD IN CHANNEL-HOPPING BASED WIRELESS AD-HOC NETWORKS - There are provided an adaptive collision avoidance apparatus and a method in a channel-hopping based wireless AD-HOC networks. The adaptive collision avoidance apparatus is configured to include a channel quality measuring unit that measures the quality of each channel by using receiving frames; an unavailable channel classifying unit that classifies unavailable channels not to perform communications in the future based on information on the quality of each channel; an unavailable channel propagating unit that transfers a list of unavailable channels classified as unavailable channels to adjacent nodes; and a transceiver that transmits and receives frames through channels not classified as the unavailable channels. | 06-23-2011 |
