Abstract

Mobile IPv6 is the representative standard protocol proposed to offer mobility of mobile hosts, but it has drawbacks such as high handover latency and packet loss during handover. To complement these drawbacks, several protocols have been proposed and they can support faster handover than the Mobile IPv6, but there still exists inevitable packet loss during handover in those protocols. In this paper, we propose a new handover procedure of mobile host who has a dual link for minimizing packet loss rate during micro handover to improve mobility capability of Cellular Ethernet system that supports mobility at layer 2. And we derive the superiority of proposed scheme by comparing in terms of packet loss rate, handover latency and throughput of proposed scheme with those of Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 which is the representative IP-layer micro mobility protocol by simulation.

Mobile IPv6는 이동 단말의 이동성을 제공하기 위해 개발된 대표적인 핸드오버 프로토콜 표준이지만, 핸드오버를 수행함에 있어서 Mobile IPv6는 긴 핸드오버 지연 시간, 높은 패킷 손실률 등의 문제점을 갖는다. 이를 보완하기 위하여 지금까지 여러가지의 프로토콜이 제안되어 보다 고속의 핸드오버를 지원할 수 있지만, 여전히 핸드오버 구간에서 필연적인 패킷의 손실이 발생하는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 계층2에서 단말 이동성을 제공하는 셀룰러 이더넷 시스템의 이동성 지원 기능을 향상시키기 위하여, 단말의 미시적 핸드오버 수행 시의 패킷 손실률을 최소화시킬 수 있도록 이중 링크를 가진 이동 단말의 핸드오버 절차를 제안하였다. 또한 모의실험을 통하여 제안된 시스템의 미시적 핸드오버 수행 시의 패킷 손실률 및 핸드오버 지연, 처리율을 IP 계층의 대표적인 미시적 핸드오버 프로토콜인 Hierarchical Mobile IPv6와 비교 분석하여 세안된 방식의 우수성을 도출하였다.
