  • COMMUNICATION APPARATUS AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20120163295
    Abstract: A mobile terminal in a sensor network selects one of the sensors nodes in the sensor network as an upstream agent, and piggybacks a list of neighboring sensor nodes found in the upstream agent selection process on an upstream packet and transmits the upstream packet to a gateway through the upstream agent. The gateway in the sensor network selects one of the neighboring sensor nodes as a downstream agent using state information of the neighboring sensor nodes in the list, and transmits a downstream packet to the mobile terminal through the selected downstream agent.

  • APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC FREQUENCY PREDICTION CONTROL
    Publication number: 20120163516
    Abstract: An automatic frequency control apparatus and method are provided. If the number of frequency error measurements is smaller than a reference number for frequency estimation compensation, the automatic frequency control apparatus performs frequency compensation using a frequency error value, and if the number of frequency error measurements is equal to or greater than the reference number for frequency estimation compensation, the automatic frequency control apparatus performs frequency compensation by estimating a frequency value that is to be used until the next frequency control period. Therefore, since frequency errors are accurately corrected in a high-speed mobile environment, an excellent channel environment may be maintained, and accordingly an occurrence frequency of re-transmission may be lowered, resulting in ensuring a high data rate.
