Abstract: Provided is a method for tracing-back an IP using marking information of a router stored on a hop-by-hop option header, which is one of IPv6 extension headers. According to the method, an attack made by an attacker is detected on the IPv6 network. If the attack is detected, information stored on a hop-by-hop option header of a packet received through the IPv6 network and marked by a router through which the packet has passed is extracted. After that, a reception path of the received packet is reconstructed and an IP of the attacker is back-traced using the extracted marking information.

Abstract: A multi-carrier CDMA transfer device using block-based partial-carrier spreading uses block-based partial-carrier spreading in the multi-cell environment to be applied to MC-CDMA models (FH-MC/CDMA TDD) that are strong against multi-path fading. A transmitter of the transfer device spreads carriers per block in the frequency domain by using the block-based partial-carrier spreading, and a receiver despreads received signals by using the block-based partial-carrier and restore original data. Optionally, an array antenna having a plurality of antenna elements is applied to the transmitter and the receiver, and weights are adaptively applied depending on the channel quality when transmitting and receiving signals through the antenna elements. Therefore, frequency diversity is obtainable and inter-cell interference and inter-code interference is optimized in the MC-CDMA method. Also, changes of frequency hopping reduce temporal variations of channels and prevent a high SN ratio.
