Abstract

This paper describes algorithm that minimizes recovery time of packet loss resulting from handoff in multicast environments and guarantees reliability through interaction of FN(Foreign Network) with PMTP(Predictable Multicast Tree Protocol). To solve the problems that inefficient routing and handoff delay taking plate when using hi-directional tunneling and remote subscription independently in multicast environments, proposed algorithm uses tunneling and rejoining multicast group according to the status of an arriving FA in a foreign network. Furthermore, proposed algorithm sends packet loss information and register message to previous FA or current FA at the same time. so, MH is able to recovery packet loss in handoff delay as soon as possible. As a result of performance analysis, proposed algorithm is more efficient than previous researches and is applicable to existing handoff method without requiring additional procedures.

본 논문에서는 멀티캐스트 환경에서 핸드오프 시 발생하는 패킷손실의 회복 지연시간을 최소화하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안한 알고리즘은 선행 연구인 PMTP(Predictable Multicast Protocol)와 FN(Foreign Network)간의 연계를 통해 신뢰성을 보장하며, 이동한 외부네트워크의 FA(Foreign Agent) 의 상태에 따라 터널링과 멀티캐스트 그룹 재 가입을 사용하여 양방향(hi-directional tunneling)과 원격가입(remote subscription)을 독립적으로 사용하는 경우에 발생되는 라우팅의 비효율성과 핸드오프 지연을 해결하였다. 한편, 핸드오프 지연에 의해 발생되는 패킷손실을 핸드오프 시 등록정보와 손실된 패킷 정보를 함께 전송하여 이전 FA나 현재 FA가 핸드오프 수행과 동시에 핸드오프 지연동안의 패킷손실을 최소한의 시간에 회복할 수 있도록 한다. 성능분석 결과, 제안하는 방식은 기존의 핸드오프 절차에 추가 변경 없이 사용 가능하며 양방향 방식과 원격가입 방식보다 핸드오프와 에러회복 시간에 있어 높은 성능을 보이는 것을 확인하였다.
