인터넷 프로토콜의 이동성 지원(Mobile IP)은 단말의 이동성(host mobility)뿐만 아니라 네트워크의 이동성(network mobility)까지도 지원하도록 확장되고 있다. 그러나 이동 네트워크(mobile network)의 내부에 이동 단말(mobile host) 또는 이동 네트워크가 존재하는 경우와 칼이 중첩된 이동 네트워크(nested mobile network)의 경우 데이터가 전송되는 경로가 삼각형 또는 그 이상으로 복잡해지는 Triangular Routing 또는 Pinball Routing 문제가 발생하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 대응 단말(Correspondent node) 또는 Home Agent에서 위치 정보가 갱신(Binding Update)되는 과정을 재귀적으로 수행하게 함으로써 중첩된 이동 네트워크에서 최적의 경로로 데이터를 전달할 수 있도록 하는 방법을 제시한다.

By intergrating technologies for protable computers, radio communications, and computer networking, the Land Mobile Computer Network(LMCN) is supposed to overcome the time and space limitation of present computer communication network. However, because the MHs(mobile hosts) do move any time, the network connectivity is often changed causing temporarily duplicated lost, or out-of-sequenced message delivery as well as frequent communications for maintainning the network connectivity. Previous works solved the problems through message flooding, used also in multicasting, resulting in high communication cost(i.e., number of communication messages). In this paper, new protocols for efficient mobility management and multicasting are proposed. The protocols define location update, handover, and multicasting procedure of a MH over a hierarchical LMCN architecture. The protocol specification is presented, and it is shown that the communication cost of the new protocols is superior to the existing ones in terms of the communication cost.

위치 정보 기반 서비스는 휴대 무선 통신 기기 사용의 확대에 따라 서비스의 범위가 크게 확장될 것으로 예상되고 있다. 그러나 단순한 정보 제공이 아닌 원격 제어, 콘텐츠 서비스 등의 경우에서 위치 정보에 대한 위변조 문제와 사용자의 프라이버시 문제가 발생할 것으로 예상된다. 기존의 위치 정보 보호에 대한 연구는 프라이버시 보호 측면을 위주로 하고 있으며, 인증에 대한 연구는 특정 센싱 기술에 특화되어 있거나, 네트워크상의 DNS를 통한 논리적인 위치 인증에 치우치고 있다. 본 연구에서는 위치 정보 기반 서비스에서의 보안 요구 사항을 분석하여, 기존의 위치 정보 보호 모델을 기반으로 위치 정보를 관리하는 신뢰되는 기관의 필요성을 논하며, 이를 토대로 타임스탬프나 키 갱신을 이용하는 두 가지 프로토콜을 제안한다.

Wireless sensor networks are composed of a lot of sensor nodes and they are used to monitor environments. Since many studies on wireless sensor networks have considered a stationary sink node, they cannot provide fully ubiquitous applications based on a mobile sink node. In those applications, routing paths for a mobile sink node should be updated while a sink node moves in order to deliver sensor data without data loss. In this paper, we propose a method to continuously update routing paths for a mobile sink node which can be extended on hierarchical multi-hop routing protocols in wireless sensor networks. The efficiency of the proposed scheme has been validated through comparing existing method using a location based routing protocol by extensive computer simulation.

호스트의 이동성을 지원하기 위한 프로토콜인 Mobile IP는 기본적으로 각각의 이동 노드가 하나의 홈 주소를 이용하여 인터넷상의 임의의 다른 위치에 접속하여 IP 주소를 변경하지 않고 인터넷을 사용할 수 있도록 한다. 본 논문에서는 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 smooth 핸드오프를 이용한 mobile IP의 성능을 분석한다. 일반적으로 데이터 트래픽, 바인딩 갱신시간, 버퍼관리 방법 등은 핸드오프 동안 mobile IP의 성능에 많은 영향을 비친다. 따라서 시뮬레이션 모델을 이용하여 다양한 트래픽 환경에서 위에 언급된 성능 파라미터들의 영향을 분석한다.

RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) is a key technology in ubiquitous computing and is expected to be employed in more fields in the near future. Nevertheless, the RFID system is vulnerable to attacks by eavesdropping or altering of the messages transmitted in wireless channels. In 2013, Oh et al. proposed a mutual authentication protocol between a tag and a reader in RFID systems. Their protocol is designed to resist location tracking for privacy protection. However, all tags and readers use only one network-wide key in their protocol and tags are usually vulnerable to physical attacks. We found that their protocol is still vulnerable to tag/reader impersonation attacks and location tracking if an attacker obtains the network-wide key from a tag. In this paper, we propose a security improved authentication protocol for privacy protection in RFID systems. In addition, we demonstrate that the proposed scheme is efficient in terms of computation and communication costs.

Network Mobility Basic Support protocol enables mobile network to change their point of attachment to the Internet, but causes some problems such as suboptimal muting and multiple encapsulations. The proposed scheme, combining Prefix Delegation protocol with HMIPv6 concept can provide more effective route optimization and reduce the amount of packet losses and the burden of location registration for handoff. It also uses hierarchical mobile network prefix (HMNP) assignment and provides tree-based routing mechanism to allocate the location address of mobile network nodes (MNNs) and support micro-mobility. In this scheme, Mobility Management Router (MMR) not only maintains the binding informations for all MNNs in nested mobile networks, but also supports binding procedures to reduce the volume of handoff signals oyer the mobile network. The performance is evaluated using NS-2.

최근 무선 접속망의 급속한 발전으로 이동 통신 환경에서 인터넷 서비스 제공에 대한 요구가 늘어남에 따라, IP기반의 이동성 지원과 마이크로 이동성에 따른 위치관리 트래픽을 줄일 수 있도록 해주는 HMIPv6 프로토콜이 제안되었다. HMIPv6에 페이징을 적용함으로서 MN의 위치등록에 필요한 시그널링 및 위치정보 데이터베이스의 갱신을 위한 처리와 단말의 전원 소모를 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 각기 다른 특성을 갖는 MN들에 하나의 동일한 페이징 영역이 적용되는 것이 아닌, 각 MN의 특성을 고려하여 각각의 MN에 적합한 최적의 페이징 영역이 설정되는 HMIPv6 환경에서의 동적 페이징 영역 설정 기법(DP-HMIPv6)을 제안한다.

Location management and message delivery protocol is fundamental to the further development of mobile agent systems in a multi-region mobile agent computing environment in order to control mobile agents and guarantee message delivery between them. However, previous works have some problems when they are applied to a multi-region mobile agent computing environment. First, the cost of location management and message delivery is increased relatively. Second, a tracking problem arises. finally, cloned mobile agents and parent-child mobile agents do not get dealt with respect to location management and message delivery. In this paper, we present a HB (Home-Blackboard) protocol, which is a new location management and message delivery protocol in a multi-region mobile agent computing environment. The HB protocol places a region server in each region and manages the location of mobile agents by using intra-region migration and inter-region migration. It also places a blackboard in each region server and delivers messages to mobile agents when a region server receives location update form them. The HB protocol can decrease the cost of location update and message passing and solve the tracking problem with low communication cost. Also, this protocol deals with the location management and message passing of cloned mobile agents and parent-child mobile agents, so that it can guarantee message delivery of these mobile agents and pass messages without passing duplicate messages.

Network Mobility Basic Support protocol reduces location-update signaling by making network movements transparent to the mobile nodes (MNs) behind the mobile router (MR), but causes some problems such as sub-optimal routing and multiple encapsulations. This paper proposes an Route Optimization Employing HMIP Extension for Mobile Networks (ROHMIP) scheme for nested nubile networks support which introduces HMIP concept with relation information between MNNs behind a MR and the MR in order to localize handoff, to optimize routing and especially reduce handoff signal overhead. With ROHMIP, a mobile network node (MNN) behind a MR performs route optimization with a correspondent node (CN) as the MR sends a binding update message (BU) to mobility anchor point (MAP) via root-MR on behalf of all active MNNs when the mobile network moves. This paper describes the new mechanisms and provides simulation results which indicate that our proposal reduces transmission delay, handoff latency and signaling overhead.
