이기종 네트워크들이 계층적인 구조로 결합되어 있는 오버레이 네트워크 환경에서 이동 단말(Mobile Terminal:MT)의 끊김없는 이동성 지원을 위해서는, 패킷 손실 및 호 단절 현상을 최소화할 수 있는 최적의 핸드오버 시점을 결정할 수 있어야 한다. 기존의 수직적 핸드오버 기법은, 단순히 MT의 위치 정보를 바탕으로 핸드오버 수행을 예측하고 결정하였다. 하지만 이 기법은, MT의 위치와 관계없이 네트워크의 과부하로 인한 패킷 손실 및 호 단절 현상이 발생할 수 있기 때문에, 네트워크의 과부하에 따른 핸드오버 시점을 간과하는 문제점을 노출하였다. 하루가 다르게 인터넷 트래픽이 급증하는 현실에서, 네트워크의 과부하를 고려하는 핸드오버 기법이 필요한 때이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 MT의 위치와 네트워크의 부하를 모두 고려하여 핸드오버 시점을 결정할 수 있는 핸드오버 맵(Handover-Map:H-Map)의 개념을 제안한다. 그리고 핸드오버 동기화 현상을 최소화하기 위해 향상된 H-Map을 기반으로 차별화된 핸드오버 시점을 부여하는 VAH(Vertical handover on Advanced H-Map) 기법을 소개하고, 이의 성능을 기존기법과 비교한다.

For the next generation mobile communication system, diverse wireless network techniques such as beyond 3G LTE, WiMAX/WiBro, and next generation WLAN etc. are proceeding to the form integrated into the All-IP core network. According to this development, Beyond 3G integrated into heterogeneous wireless access technologies must support the vertical handover and network to be used of several radio networks. However, unified management of each network is demanded since it is individually serviced. Therefore, in order to solve this problem this study is introducing the theory of Common Radio Resource Management (CRRM) based on Generic Link Layer (GLL). This study designs the structure and functions to support the vertical handover and propose the vertical handover algorithm of which policy-based and MCDM are composed between LTE and WLAN systems using GLL and CRRM. Finally, simulation results are presented to show the improved performance over the data throughput, handover success rate and the system service cost.

오버레이 네트워크 환경에서 이동 사용자에게 최적의 서비스를 제공하기 위해서 효율적인 수직 핸드오버 기술은 필수적이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 비실시간 응용의 성능을 최대화할 수 있는 종단 간 이동성 지원 방안을 기반으로 한 수직 핸드오버 메커니즘을 제안하였다. 본 논문의 특징은 먼저 수직 핸드오버 트리거링 방법과 수직 핸드오버 결정 규칙을 정의하였고, 비실시간 응용의 성능을 최대화하는 새로운 혼잡제어 메커니즘을 제안하였다. 마지막으로 핑퐁 현상이 전송성능에 미치는 영향을 줄이기 위하여 stability period 정의하였다. 추후 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안하는 방안의 성능을 평가하고자 한다.

This paper proposes a multihoming-based vertical handover scheme using Proxy binding update to minimize handover delay and packet loss while a mobile node moves to a heterogeneous access network. When a mobile node moves to a heterogeneous access network, the proposed scheme can provide a mobile node with fast and seamless handover by performing layer-3 handover using its new interface while the other interface is still communicating in the old access network. The proposed Proxy binding update is different from the Mobile IP binding update in that it includes home addres (HoA) of the old interface instead of the new interface. The performance analysis shows that the proposed scheme can efficiently reduce vertical handover delay and packet loss.

In this paper, we propose a mobility management scheme which has a simple IP emulation method based on virtual interface. This scheme supports prevention of service abortion resulting from RAT (Radio Access Technology) interface switching during vertical handover and provides mobility management convenience according to maintenance of consistency in simple IP mobility management scheme of 3rd generation mobile network. Through the empirical experiments of proposed method, we check out the improvement of handover performance of the proposed scheme based on vertical handover latency comparing with a non-virtual interface system.

It is necessary for maritime multi-band networks, which provide ships with diverse and seamless multimedia services, to perform vertical handover. As IEEE 802.21 WG has standardized vertical handover technologies for terrestrial wireless networks that do not consider VHF, HF, satellite networks, they cannot be directly applied to maritime multi-band networks. In this paper, the vertical handover framework for use in maritime mutlti-band networks is proposed, which includes the logical architecture, the communication reference model, re-defined handover primitives, and the handover process. The proposed vertical handover for maritime multi-band network can be applied in the ocean alone, as well as to the heterogeneous wireless networks which embrace both terrestrial and maritime networks.

With the advances in wireless communication technologies, mobile users require to get seamless services anywhere and anytime. To relize these demands, network interworking and vertical handover are necessary between heterogeneous wireless access technologies with multi-interface mobile station. A lot of organizations are doing research on the network integration schemes based on loosely and tightly integrated architectures, and research on vertical handover schemes mainly based on Mobile IP in loosely integrated environments. But actually, the tightly integrated scheme can support more faster vertical handover because heterogeneous access networks are combined tightly. However, vertical handover schemes in tightly integrated environments are conceptually proposed without any detail signaling procedures. Therefore, this paper defines a tightly integrated architecture between UMTS and WLAN, and proposes a soft vertical handover signaling procedure. The proposed soft vertical handover scheme is evaluated by the OPNET simulator, and we confirm the proposed scheme can support seamless services.
