Alternative Schemes for Dynamic Secure VPN Deployment in UMTS

Three alternative schemes for secure Virtual Private Network (VPN) deployment over the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) are proposed and analyzed. The proposed schemes enable a mobile node to voluntarily establish an IPsec-based secure channel to a private network. The alternative schemes differ in the location where the IPsec functionality is placed within the UMTS network architecture (mobile node, access network, and UMTS network border), depending on the employed security model, and whether data in transit are ever in clear-text, or available to be tapped by outsiders. The provided levels of privacy in the deployed VPN schemes, as well as the employed authentication models are examined. An analysis in terms of cost, complexity, and performance overhead that each method imposes to the underlying network architecture, as well as to the mobile devices is presented. The level of system reliability and scalability in granting security services is presented. The VPN management, usability, and trusted relations, as well as their behavior when a mobile user moves are analyzed. The use of special applications that require access to encapsulated data traffic is explored. Finally, an overall comparison of the proposed schemes from the security and operation point of view summarizes their relative performance.

Performance of a burst-frame-based CSMA/CA protocol: Analysis and enhancement

In this paper, we develop an analytical model to evaluate the delay performance of the burst-frame-based CSMA/CA protocol under unsaturated conditions, which has not been fully addressed in the literature. Our delay analysis is unique in that we consider the end-to-end packet delay, which is the duration from the epoch that a packet enters the queue at the MAC layer of the transmitter side to the epoch that the packet is successfully received at the receiver side. The analytical results give excellent agreement with the simulation results, which represents the accuracy of our analytical model. The results also provide important guideline on how to set the parameters of the burst assembly policy. Based on these results, we further develop an efficient adaptive burst assembly policy so as to optimize the throughput and delay performance of the burst-frame-based CSMA/CA protocol.

A Fault-Tolerant Scheme for Mobility Management in PCS Networks

One of the most important and challenging issues in the design of personal communication service (PCS) systems is the management of location information. In this paper, we propose a new fault-tolerant location management scheme, which is based on the cellular quorum system. Due to quorum's salient set property, our scheme can tolerate the failures of one or more location server(s) without adding or changing the hardware of the systems in the two-tier networks. Meanwhile, with a region-based approach, our scheme stores/retrieves the MH location information in the location servers of a quorum set of the local region as much as possible to avoid long delays caused by the possible long-distance of VLR and HLR. Thus, it yields better connection establishment and update delay.

Non-Cooperative Games for Service Differentiation in CDMA Systems

In this paper, we address the problem of user-class based service differentiation in CDMA networks. Users are categorized into three classes who get differentiated services based on their expected quality of service (QoS) from the service provider and the price they are willing to pay. We adopt a game theoretic approach for allocating resources through a two-step process. During a service admission, resource distribution is determined for each class. Then, the resource allocated to each class is distributed among the active users in that class. We devise a utility function for the providers which considers the expected revenue and the probability of users leaving their service provider if they are not satisfied with the service. Our model demonstrates how power can be controlled in a CDMA network to differentiate the service quality. Also, we show the impact of admitting high paying users on other users.

Context-Based Network and Application Management on Seamless Networking Platform

A context-based adaptive communication system is introduced for use in heterogeneous networks. Context includes the user's presence, location, available network interfaces, network availability, network priority, communication status, terminal features, and installed applications. An experimental system was developed to clarify the feasibility of using context information to flexibly control networks and applications. The system operates on a seamless networking platform we developed for heterogeneous networks. By using contexts, the system can inform the caller and callee of applications they can access, which are available through the network before communication occurs. Changes in contexts can switch an on-going application to another during actual communication. These functions provide unprecedented styles of communication.

Dose control circuit for digital electrostatic electron-beam array lithography

This paper demonstrates a technique for controlling the electron emission of an array of field emitting vertically aligned carbon nanofibers (VACNFs). An array of carbon nanofibers (CNF) is to be used as the source of electron beams for lithography purposes. This tool is intended to replace the mask in the conventional photolithography process by controlling their charge emission using the “Dose Control Circuitry” (DCC). The large variation in the charge emitted between CNFs grown in identical conditions forced the controller design to be based on fixed dose rather than on fixed time. Compact digital control logic has been designed for controlling the operation of DCC. This system has been implemented in a 0.5 μm CMOS process. Chandra Sekhar A. Durisety received his B.E. (Hons.)

光通信地面网络候选站址的大气信道特性统计检验

激光通信地面站址的大气信道特性决定着设备性能的有效发挥。选择四个候选站址,西藏阿里、青海德令哈、四川稻城和河北兴隆,统计检验云量覆盖、大气透过率、天空辐射度和大气湍流等特征对激光通信的影响。结果显示,单站可用度条件以阿里为最佳；三站联合可用度以阿里-德令哈-兴隆最好,在少云条件下(云量低于60%)全年可用度85%以上;少云条件下的四站联合可用度在5~8月为91\%~96\%,其它月份98%以上。四个候选站址的大气光学特性均能满足激光通信传输的要求。高海拔站址的大气透过率与辐射度有明显优势,阿里、稻城的夜间大气相干长度在10 cm以上,德令哈在8~12 cm间, 兴隆站在6 cm以上。在多站联合模式下应能在高海拔的少云区选择出足够高可用度的站址。     

UMTS及EPC网络QoS机制的研究

随着社会的发展,用户对业务质量的需求也日益提高,为此3GPP组织加强了对QoS的研究,在UMTS阶段引入了端到端QoS机制,并在LTE阶段对QoS机制进行了扩展和增强,目前QoS的研究是3GPP研究的一个热点。本文对3GPP移动通信网QoS演进进行了介绍,分析了UMTS和EPC网络的QoS实现机制,并对两种QoS实现机制进行了分析。
