Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new mobility management scheme, called i-FP(intelligent Fast PMIPv6). Our proposed i-FP scheme is addressed for solving the existing local mobility management problems from legacy frameworks. To move MN(Mobile Node) to other networks in one domain, i-FP employs three network entities which are extended from PMIPv6(Proxy Mobile IPv6), LMA(Local Mobility Anchor), MAG(Mobile Access Gateway) and MN. In i-FP, the three network entities can reduce the handover delay time of MNs. Also, i-FP uses an IP header swapping mechanism to avoid the traffic overhead and improve the throughput of network. To evaluate the performance of i-FP, we analyze our i-FP, HMIPv6(Hierarchical Mobile IPv6) and PMIPv6 which are legacy protocols of local mobility management in terms of various parameters. Finally, our i-FP scheme shows good performance(reduction of routing hops 10.2%, signaling costs 58.5% and handover delay 16.3%) than other network schemes for the total cost.

본 논문에서는 i-FP(intelligent Fast PMIPv6)로 명명한 새로운 이동성관리 네트워크 기법을 제안한다. i-FP는 지역 이동성관리 문제를 해결하기 위해 고안했다. 하나의 도메인 내에서 MN(Mobile Node)을 다른 네트워크로 이동이 가능하게 하기 위해 i-FP에서는 PMIPv6(Proxy Mobile IPv6)의 세가지 네트워크 엔티티인 LMA(Local Mobility Anchor), MAG(Mobile Access Gateway), MN의 개념을 확장하여 기능을 추가했다. 세가지 네트워크 엔티티로 i-FP에서는 MN의 핸드오버 지연 시간을 감소시키고 IP 헤더 스와핑 메카니즘을 사용하여 트래픽 오버헤드를 회피하여 네트워크 처리량을 증가 시킨다. i-FP의 성능을 평가하기 위해, 새롭게 제안하는 i-FP와 같은 로컬 이동성 관리 프로토콜인 HMIPv6(Hierarchical Mobile IPv6), PMIPv6까지 이상 총 세가지 기법으로 다양한 기준을 사용하여 네트워크 기법의 성능을 측정 / 평가하였다. 성능평가 결과를 종합해서 i-FP가 트래픽 오버헤드가 없어지고 다른 비교 기법 대비 평균 라우팅 홉수 10.2%, 트래픽 시그널링 비용 58.5%, 핸드오버 지연은 16.3% 감소의 성능향상이 일어남을 보여준다.
