Cullen, Cionaith. "Network and signalling aspects of satellite personal communication networks." Thesis, University of Surrey, 1995. http://epubs.surrey.ac.uk/842984/.

Abstract:
The use of satellites for mobile communication applications has become a global issue. The use of handheld, vehicle mounted and transportable terminals is a key feature of Satellite Personal Communication Networks (S-PCNs). Due to the higher eirp requirements on the Earths surface and also because of their inherent delay, geostationary (GEO) satellites are not considered suitable for such applications. Instead, constellations of satellites at lower altitudes have been proposed for use in what are termed 2nd generation mobile satellite communication systems. Low intensity regions in the Earths surrounding trapped radiation bands, have resulted in two altitude bands of specific interest, resulting in two constellation types - LEO (Low Earth Orbit) constellations at around 1,000 km and MEO (Medium Earth Orbit) constellations at around 10,000 km. A satellite constellation consists of a number of satellites orbiting at the same altitude and inclination and phased in a specific way. The work reported in this thesis proposes a network control architecture for LEO or MEO based S-PCN systems. Air-interface signalling aspects are then considered for mobility management and call setup signalling. LEO and MEO constellation design aspects and properties are initially considered. Important implications on the control network are drawn based on constellation coverage and connectivity properties. Other system constraints such as terrestrial network interworking considerations as well as user, network operator and regulator requirements are also considered. Finally network and more specifically satellite control signalling is examined before a S-PCN architecture is proposed. The reference architecture results in constellation control being distributed globally with individual satellite control, at any one time, being located at a specific earth station. The use of two earth station types allows network administration to be separated from traffic channel carrying aspects. In order to reduce system setup cost and delay, the reuse of network related standards from the GSM terrestrial mobile communication system is envisaged. An equivalence is made between the S-PCN architecture and the GSMs terrestrial architecture. Network implementation aspects are considered for a 14 satellite MEO constellation. Network implications resulting from the use of LEO and MEO constellations are considered. After an examination of S-PCN traffic demand on a MEO constellation, mobility management signalling is considered. A new approach is proposed based on the use of a positioning system. The performance of this approach is examined from a system signalling viewpoint for both LEO and MEO constellations and a method to minimise the required amount of signalling is described. The air interface signalling procedure for location update, based on a modified GSM network layer protocol, is simulated from a delay point of view for both LEO and MEO constellations. User-originated, user-terminated and user-to-user call setup signalling were also simulated and their delay performance examined. The importance of random access channel delay and of user cooperation with the link were highlighted as aspects which have a significant influence on the average signalling delay. Finally, the effect of common and dedicated control channel system signalling on satellite power consumption, based on busy hour call setup and mobility management signalling estimates, was examined for a MEO constellation. From this, conclusions can be made on the signalling power efficiency of S-PCN systems.

Abstract:
With the increasing use of electronic devices, the need for affordable wireless services specifically context-aware services, in a so-called Personal Area Network (PAN) is becoming an area with significant potential. Service discovery is a basic function. Even though a number of service discovery protocols have been implemented, a specific protocol for a PAN environment may need to be developed, as the characteristics of a PANs differ from other networking environments. Thus, the specific requirements for service discovery from a PAN perspective were studied. Methods for service discovery will be described that take into account both local and remote services. These methods will then be evaluated in a SIP telephony infrastructure to decide where a call should be delivered. The location of a person is done by using the implemented service discovery.
Med en ökad användning av elektroniska enheter blir behovet av trådlösa tjänster, speciellt context-medvetna tjänster i så kallade Personal Area Network (PAN), ett område med betydlig potential. Service Discovery är en grundläggande funktion. Även om flera service discovery protocols har implementerats finns det behov av ett specifikt protokoll för PAN-miljöer då egenskaperna hos ett PAN skiljer sig från andra nätverksmiljöer. Således studerades de specifika krav för service discovery från ett PAN perspektiv. Metoder för service discovery kommer att ta med i beräkningen båda lokala och avlägna tjänster. Dessa metoder utvärderas i en SIP telephony infrastructure för att avgöra var en påringning ska levereras. Lokalisering av en användare sker genom det implementerade service discovery-protokollet.

Abstract:
The thesis is concerned with Digital Rights Management (DRM), and in particular with DRM for networks of devices owned by a single individual. This thesis focuses on the problem of preventing illegal copying of digital assets without jeopardising the right of legitimate licence holders to transfer content between their own devices, which collectively make up what we refer to as an authorised domain. An ideal list of DRM requirements is specified, which takes into account the points of view of users, content providers and copyright law. An approach is then developed for assessing DRM systems based on the defined DRM requirements; the most widely discussed DRM schemes are then analysed and assessed, where the main focus is on schemes which address the concept of an authorised domain. Based on this analysis we isolate the issues underlying the content piracy problem, and then provide a generic framework for a DRM system addressing the identified content piracy issues. The defined generic framework has been designed to avoid the weaknesses found in other schemes. The main contributions of this thesis include developing four new approaches that can be used to implement the proposed generic framework for managing an authorised domain. The four novel solutions all involve secure means for creating, managing and using a secure domain, which consists of all devices owned by a single owner. The schemes allow secure content sharing between devices in a domain, and prevent the illegal copying of content to devices outside the domain. In addition, each solution incorporates a method for binding a domain to a single owner, ensuring that only a single consumer owns and manages a domain. This enables binding of content licences to a single owner, thereby limiting illicit content proliferation. In the first solution, domain owners are authenticated using two-factor authentication, which involves 'something the domain owner has', Le. a master control device that controls and manages consumers domains, and binds devices joining a domain to itself, and 'something the domain owner is or knows', i.e. a biometric or password/PIN authentication mechanism that is implemented by the master control device. In the second solution, domain owners are authenticated using their payment cards, building on existing electronic payment systems by ensuring that the name and the date of birth of a domain creator are the same for all devices joining a domain. In addition, this solution helps to protect consumers' privacy; unlike in existing electronic payment systems, payment card details are not exposed to third parties. The third solution involves the use of a domain-specific mobile phone and the mobil~ phone network operator to authenticate a domain owner before devices can join a domain. The fourth solution involves the use of location-based services, ensuring that devices joining a consumer domain are located in physical proximity to the addresses registered for this domain. This restricts domain membership to devices in predefined geographical locations, helping to ensure that a single consumer owns and manages each domain.

Zhu, Shaozhen. "Wearable antennas for personal wireless networks." Thesis, University of Sheffield, 2008. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/10318/.

Abstract:
In this study, we mainly characterize the wearable antenna system for off-body communications with respect to two conventional wireless communication systems as, cellular mobile systems (pes, GSM and UMTS) and wireless local area networks (WLAN). Unlike antennas embedded in portable devices, the complicated bodycentric environment has emerged with special requirements for wearable antennas design, like compact dimensions, light weight and flexible structure, hidden or water proofmg, and most importantly, capable of providing certain radiation shielding into the human body. This thesis aims to fmd an optimum solution to meet the particular requirements ofwearable antenna design. The first part is primarily concerned with characterising the electromagnetic properties of some textile and leather materials. Both insulating and conducting materials are investigated for using as substrate and radiating elements of high perfonnance textile antennas. Then a few of new antenna designs are proposed in the second part. These antennas are made out of textile and leather materials. They are low profIle, planar in geometry, and most importantly, they are capable to provide multi-operations with considerable wide bandwidth. An electromagnetic band gap structure is studied as it can provide a high impedance ground plane for low profIle antennas. The EBG plane can provide a perfect shielding layer for the body, and reduce the radiation toward the body significantly. Furthermore, the EBG plane is able to reduce the detuning of the antenna when placing near the body without serious bandwidth reduction, increase antenna gain and reduce mutual coupling from other devices. The final part carries out a series ofexperiments which can represent the body-centric environment These include bending, washing, wearing, coupling and SAR investigations. Antenna and EBG performances under body worn environment are tested and discussed in this thesis.

Abstract:
Parallel and distributed simulation is recognized as a viable method for the modeling of complex dynamic systems. The main benefits of using a parallel versus a sequential technique in solving these problems are decreasing execution time and distributing the memory used in the simulation over a number of processors.
Parallel simulation techniques have successfully been applied to the modeling of cellular communication services. They focus on defining efficient models for simulation, on the study of protocols or on the performance analysis of resource allocation algorithms. In this thesis, we continue the research in this domain by defining a model focusing on simulation accuracy. We will also test the limits on the size of the application model that can be simulated. Two channel allocation techniques are implemented. The first is based on fixed channel allocation and the second on a technique known as channel segregation. The latter technique requires that interference data be computed. For this purpose, we describe a brute force interference calculation algorithm. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Oppel, Annalena. Beyond Informal Social Protection – Personal Networks of Economic Support in Namibia. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), November 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/ids.2020.002.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper poses a different lens on informal social protection (ISP). ISP is generally understood as practices of livelihood support among individuals. While studies have explored the social dynamics of such, they rarely do so beyond the conceptual space of informalities and poverty. For instance, they discuss aspects of inclusion, incentives and disincentives, efficiency and adequacy. This provides important insights on whether and to what extent these practices provide livelihood support and for whom. However, doing so in part disregards the socio-political context within which support practices take place. This paper therefore introduces the lens of between-group inequality through the Black Tax narrative. It draws on unique mixed method data of 205 personal support networks of Namibian adults. The results show how understanding these practices beyond the lens of informal social protection can provide important insights on how economic inequality resonates in support relationships, which in turn can play a part in reproducing the inequalities to which they respond.
