ABSTRACT
This paper presents two novel and high performance hardware architectures, implemented in FPGA technology, for the KASUMI block cipher; this algorithm lies at the core of the confidentiality and integrity algorithms defined for the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) standard. The first proposal is a pipelined design and the second implements an iterative approach. The throughput for these architectures turn out to be higher than the throughput achieved by other proposals.

Handoff trigger table for integrated 3G/WLAN networks
IWCMC '06: Proceedings of the 2006 international conference on Wireless communications and mobile computingVertical handoff is a switching process between heterogeneous wireless networks in a hybrid 3G/WLAN network. Vertical handoffs from WLAN to 3G network often fail due to the abrupt degrade of the WLAN signal strength in the transition areas. In this ...
