MPLS망을 적용한 IMT2000 시스템에서의 패킷 데이터 처리 절차

IMT-2000 Packet Data Processing Method utilizing MPLS

Because of the rapid growth of the mobile communication, the need for the mobile internet access has grown up as well. since the current mobile communication network, however, is optimized for a voice communication system, which exclusively occupies a channel for a given time, it is not suitable for variable rate packet data. In order to support the mobile internet access, it is essential do design a reasonable packet switching network which supports the mobility. Since mobile packet network has longer latency, high speed switching and QoS are required to meet the user's requirements. In this paper, we suggest an resonable way to construct a network and its operation procedures utilizing GPRS(General Packet Radio Service) network and MPLS(Multi Protocol Label Switching) to provide a high speed switching and QoS mobile internet access. GPRS is used as a network which supports the mobility and MPLS guarantees the QoS and high speed IP protocol transmission based on the ATM switching technology.
