Abstract

Providing node mobility on IP-based wireless networks is required by the increasing Internet access of the mobile nodes and Mobile-IPv6 was suggested for IPv6. But Mobile-IPv6 degrades the overall performance of wireless networks by the packet loss while performing its handover function. Therefore, lots of efforts and researches to resolve this problem have been doing from now on. FMIPv6 is one of the improved methods that was designed to provide seemless handover. But it still has a problem that the handover is strictly depended on the triggered information of the unreliable link layer. In this paper, a scheme called mptFMIPv6 that minimizes delay of critical section of CoA registration process by reducing the link layer dependency was proposed.

증가하는 이동단말의 인터넷 접속은 무선 IP망에서 노드의 망 이동 지원을 필요로 하게 되고, IPv6를 위해 모바일 IPv6를 제시되었다. 하지만 모바일 IPv6는 노드의 핸드오버로 인한 패킷손실을 발생시켜 망의 성능을 저하시킴으로 인해 이를 개선하기위한 다양한 방안들이 제시되고 있다. FMIPv6는 이들 방안들 중 하나로 끊어짐 없는 핸드오버가 가능하도록 설계되었으나 링크계층으로부터 정확한 핸드오버 시점을 결정해야하는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 FMIPv6의 링크계층 의존성 문제를 해결하기 위해 가장 큰 지연시간을 갖는 이동노드의 CoA 등록과정을 사전에 수행하여 결정적인 부분의 지연시간을 최소로 줄이는 방안인 mptFMIPv6를 제안한다.
