In this paper, a secure and efficient binding update protocol as well as a handover protocol are proposed in the generalized hierarchical MIPv6 environment. Contrary to the conventional hierarchical MIPv6 environment where a foreign network is a small-scaled MAP domain, a large-scaled MAP domain consisting of several MAPs which are connected hierarchically is considered in the proposed protocol for the mechanism to support fast and secure mobility. It is also analyzed the security of the proposed protocol under the various attack scenarios.

Internet engineering task force (IETF) has proposed hierarchical mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) in order to reduce a frequent location registration of a mobile node in mobile IPv6 (MIPv6). All traffics toward a mobile node must be transmitted through a MAP in HMIPv6. This brings unnecessary packet latency because of the increased processing cost of packet at the MAP. At this point the processing cost of packet at the MAP is influenced by the packet arrival rate for a mobile node and the number of mobile nodes in MAP domain. In this paper, we propose that MIPv6 and HMIPv6 are adaptively selected to minimize signaling coast of network as complementing weak point of MIPv6 and HMIPv6. After suppose that the packet arrival rate for a mobile node is fixed ,with this in mind, we find the optimal number of mobile nodes compared the total cost of HMIPv6 with the total cost of MIPv6. And if Mobile Nodes that the MAP is able to manage is full in MAP domain, a mobile node entering MAP domain is provided connection by MIPv6 instead of HMIPv6. In the conclusion, the proposed method of this paper shows that the weak points of MIPv6 and HMIPv6 are removed by adaptive selecting each other.

As quick and secure mobility service is becoming a critical issue in the ubiquitous environment. Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has done a lot of meaningful work in order to cope with the critical issues, which is a key technology of guaranteeing the legally and safely using of network resources, they has proposed Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) to complement for such problems as handover latency and signaling overhead in existing MIPv6. Most of the current research about HMIPv6 focuses on how to optimize the interactive processes between the HMIPv6 and AAA (Authentication, Authorization, Accounting) protocol. This paper describes a cost-effective hierarchical authentication scheme, which makes its focus on minimizing the authentication latency in AAA processing. In this scheme, a hierarchical AAA architecture is proposed, in which the AAA servers are deployed on the Mobility Anchor Point (MAP), the Root AAA server manages several Leaf AAA servers and the Brokers on behalf of the AAA server in home domain. The simulation results shows that the proposed scheme reduces the handoff and authentication latency evidently compared to the previous traditional authentication combination modeling.

As the set of new mobile data networking service technologies, such as WiBro, mobile WiMAX and WCDMA-HSDPA, have been introduced in recent years, IP mobility management protocols which aim to provide seamless IP service over the mobile networking environment become one of the important building blocks for the successful mobile networks. IETF has introduced a basic mobility management protocol over IPv6 (MIPv6) and a set of enhanced protocols such as FMIPv6 and HMIPv6, followed by FHMIPv6, S-MIPv6 and HIMIPv6 which combine the benefits of the basic protocols. We have studied the impact of the various IP mobility management protocols over TCP sessions through extensive simulations with ns-2. Our simulation results show that TCP performance with the HIMIPv6 outperforms MIPv6, FMIPv6 and HMIPv6 over the various TCP protocols, due to its efficient combination of the hierarchical mobility management scheme of the HMIPv6, the predictive handover scheme of the FMIPv6 and the fast simulcasting scheme of the S-MIP.

As a mobility support for IP have studied, Internet Engineering Task Force(IETF) standardized the Mobile IPv6(MIPv6) protocol. When a mobile node moves between subnets, MIPv6 maintains connectivity to network and supports seamless communication, and these processes are called a Handover. Whenever the mobile node moves between subnets, the Handover is performed. The mobile node can not communicate during the Handover. This period is Galled Handover latency. To reduce this latency, mipshop working group standardizes Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6(FMIPv6), but latency which the mobile node registers its new care-of address to a home agent and a correspondent node is still long. To solve this problem, we propose a scheme that the mobile node registers the new care-of address to the home agent and initiates Return Routability procedure in advance during layer 2 handover, based on FMIPv6 and IEEE 802.11. We analyze MIPv6, FMIPv6 and the proposed scheme in term of packet transmission cost during the Handover. Compared to MIPv6 the proposed scheme gains 79% improvement, while it gains 31% improvement compared to FMIPv6.

As the number of the mobile nodes (MNs) increases in the networks, the signaling traffic generated by mobility management for MNs will increase explosively, and such a phenomenon will probably affect overall network performance. In this paper, we propose a novel analytical approach using a continuous-time Markov chain model and hierarchical network model for the analysis on the signaling load of representative IPv6 mobility support Protocols such as Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) and Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6). According to these analytical modeling, this paper derives the various signaling costs, which are generated by an MN during its average domain residence time when MIPv6 and HMIPv6 are deployed under the same network architecture, respectively. In addition, based on these derived costs, we investigate the effects of various mobility/traffic-related parameters on the signaling costs generated by an MN under MIPv6 and HMIPv6. The analytical results show that as the average moving speed of an MN gets higher and the binding lifetime is set . to the larger value, and as its average packet arrival rate gets lower, the total signaling cost generated during its average domain residence time under HMIPv6 will get relatively lower than that under MIPv6, and that under the reverse conditions, the total signaling cost under MIPv6 will get relatively lower than that under HMIPv6.

The Network Mobility (NEMO) basic support protocol extends the operation of Mobile IPv6 to provide uninterrupted Internet connectivity to the communicating nodes of mobile networks. The protocol is not efficient to offer delays in data delivery and higher overheads in the case of nested mobile networks because it uses fairly sub-optimal routing and multiple encapsulation of data packets. In this paper, our scheme combining Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) functionality and Hierarchical Prefix Delegation (HPD) protocol for IPv6, which provide more effective route optimization and reduce packet header overhead and the burden of location registration for handoff. The scheme also uses hierarchical mobile network prefix (HMNP) assignment and tree-based routing mechanism to allocate the location address of mobile network nodes (MNNs) and support micro-mobility and intra-domain data communication. The performance is evaluated using NS-2.

MIPv6의 핸드오버 지연시간을 줄이는 많은 연구가 등장 하였고, 그 중 IEFT에서 표준화한 두 가지 프로토콜이 있다. 첫 번째 FMIPv6(Fast MIPv6) 프로토콜은 2계층 핸드오버 전에 3계층 핸드오버의 일부 과정은 사전에 수행함으로써 핸드오버 지연 시간을 줄이는 프로토콜이다. 두 번째 HMIPv6(Hierarchical MIPv6)는 일정한 범위를 커버할 수 있는 에이전트를 두어 이동성을 지역적으로 관리하여 핸드오버 지연시간을 줄이는 프로토콜이다. 본 논문에서는 FMIPv6에서 주로 사용하는 바인딩 갱신 프로토콜인 RR 프로토콜의 바인딩 갱신 절차를 줄임으로써 바인딩 갱신으로 생기는 시간을 단축시키는 방법을 제안한다.

최근 공중 무선랜 서비스와 같이 IP 기반의 액세스 망을 사용하는 네트워크 환경이 증가하고, IP를 기반으로 하는 차세대 네트워크 환경이 대두됨에 따라 IP 기반의 이동성 관리 기술의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. IP 기반의 이동성 지원을 위해 MIPv6 프로토콜이 제시되었으며, MIPv6의 핸드오버 성능을 개선하기 위한 여러 가지 확장 프로토콜이 제시되고 있다 대표적으로 계층적인 구조에서 지역 이동성을 지원하는 MAP을 도입함으로써 바인딩 갱신에 소요되는 지연 시간을 줄이는 HMIPv6와 새로운 망에서 사용될 주소를 미리 생성하고 라우터들 간의 터널을 통해 패킷을 전달함으로써 패킷 손실을 줄이는 FMIPv6이 제시되었다. 이 두 가지 프로토콜을 결합함으로써 보다 우수한 핸드오버 성능을 제공할 수 있을 것이다. 그러나 단순한 두 프로토콜의 결합은 패킷의 전달 경로를 복잡하게 하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 HMIPv6와 FMIPv6을 결합할 때 발생하는 복잡한 경로를 단순화하는 F-HMIPv6 프로토콜을 제안한다.

Several mobility supporting protocols have been proposed across OSI reference layers. Each protocol has similar or different characteristics based on its operating layer which affect a handover latency. In this paper, we analyze handover performance of most representative protocols in each layer. For analysis, we use SUBNET model based Markovian model and movement model. In result, difference of protocol handover latency is not occurred by DAD but also by security, movement detection, message processing time.
