In Next Generation Wireless Networks (NGWN), lots of information, such as voice and video data, will be used in All-IP networks. It is important note that seamless service for users and handoff between heterogeneous networks must be taken into account in such environments. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a SePH(Seamless Proxy based Handoff) using PMIPv6-based proxy model which is enable to improve the performance of handoff in NGWN. The SePH can efficiently support seamless and IP-based mobility by reducing the search process. The performance results show that our proposed scheme outperforms in terms of QoS (Quality of Service) such as throughput, handoff latency, packet loss, and signaling overhead comparing to the existing schemes.

With the development of wireless data communication technology, all IP-based network will become compositions of wired and wireless networks. TCP is a connection-oriented, reliable transport protocol and has been used as de facto standard in most wired networks. Because TCP's congestion control algorithm could not distinguish congestion from BER, link failure and frequent route changes, TCP shows a poor performance over mobile ad-hoc networks. In this paper, the theoretical feature of TCP was studied and the performance of TCP over mobile ad-hoc networks was analyzed with ns2.

WiBro network technologies developed mainly by Korea are one of very promising 4G technologies. WiBro has been standardized as international standard called Mobile WiMAX, and has been deployed in many countries. Emergency Services are infrastructural servicesa and very essential to induce subscribers from other types of networks. This paper propose a network architecture for supporting emergency services for mobile VoIP services in WiBro networks. The proposed architecture is based on WMF's architecture for internationa compatibilities, and reflects national considerations on interfacing PSAP for domestic compatibilities.

This paper proposes a virtual mobile ad-hoc network (VMANET) model that automatically divides heterogeneous mobile devices of a MANET into a number of network groups depending on the communication capacity(data rate) of different network operational models such as IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11b, and Frequency Hopping. In addition, it supports a distinct routing protocol for each network group of VMANETs, resulting in running multiple routing protocols concurrently on different groups of VMANETs. To reduce the network congestion and improve the network load balance, a default MANET gateway is configured in each VMANET and these gateways are responsible for integrating the MANET and IP networks. Experiment results show that the proposed model outperforms the conventional IMANET by significantly increasing throughput and reducing network congestion and network delay.

AAA(Authentication, Authorization, Accounting) 프로토콜은 기존의 유선망 뿐만 아니라 비약적으로 발전하고 있는 무선망에서 VoIP, Mobile IP 등과 같은 다양한 서비스 및 프로토콜 상에서 안전하고 신뢰성 있는 사용자 인증, 인가, 과금 기능을 체계적으로 제공하는 정보보호 기술이다. 그러나 현재 무선망은 유선망에 비해 외부로부터의 공격에 매우 취약하고 통신에 있어서 많은 제약사항이 뒤따르고 있다. 현재 IETF AAA 워킹그룹에서도 무선망에서의 안전한 AAA 프로토콜에 관하여 중요하게 다루고 있으며, 모바일 노드의 이동성에 따른 안전한 인증을 제공하는 방안에 대해서 활발히 연구 중이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 모바일 노드가 홈 인증 서버로부터 인증을 받고 난 후에 외부 네트워크로 이동하더라도 홈 인증 서버로부터 발급받은 티켓을 이용하여 홈 인증 서버로 접근을 하지 않고 외부 네트워크에서의 인증을 제공하여 서비스를 받을 수 있게 한다. 본 방식은 티켓을 사용함으로써 교환되는 메시지 및 지연을 줄이고 지속적인 서비스를 제공받을 수 있어 효율성을 높일 수 있다.

이동성관리는 미래의 IP 무선 네트워크에 대한 중요한 연구 과제이다. 이동성관리를 효율적으로 제공하기 위해 IETF에 의해 MIP 프로토콜이 제안되었으며, 이후 단점을 보안하기 위한 다양한 형태의 프로토콜들이 제안되었다. 이 프로토콜들은 이동 중에 높은 품질을 유지하기 위해 핸드오프 지연 최소화에 초점을 맞추고 있으며 핸드오프 시그널링 분석을 위한 기법들이 제안되었다. 이러한 분석기법을 이용하여 각 프로토콜들을 수학적으로 평가하고 시그널링에 대하여 분석한다. 이 논문에서는 다양한 이동성 프로토콜에 대하여 특정 엔티티의 지연 시간이 증가할 때 미치는 영향에 대해서 분석하여 효율적인 프로토콜 선택에 대해 평가하고자 한다.

With the recent advancements in various wireless communication technologies, the importance of mobile multicasting is coming to the fore, in an effort to use network resources more efficiently. In the past, when various mobile IP-based multicast techniques were proposed, the focus was put on the costs needed for network delivery for providing multicast services, as well as on minimizing the multicast handover delay. For techniques using MIPv6 (Mobile IPv6), a host-based mobility management protocol, however, it is fundamentally difficult to resolve the problems of handover delay and tunnel convergence. To resolve these problems, a network-based mobility management protocol called PMIPv6 (Proxy Mobile IPv6) was standardized. Although performance is improved in PMIPv6 over MIPv6, it still suffers from the problems of handover delay and tunnel convergence. In this paper, to overcome these limitations, a technique called LFH (Low-cost and Fast Handoff) is proposed for fast and low-cost mobility management with multicasting support in PMIPv6 networks. To reduce the interactions between the complex multicast routing protocol and the multicast messages, a simplified proxy method called MLD (Multicast Listener Discovery) is implemented and modified. Furthermore, a TCR (Tunnel Combination and Reconstruction) algorithm was used in the multicast handover procedure within the LMA (Local Mobility Anchor) domain, as well as in the multicast handover procedure between domains, in order to overcome the problem of tunnel convergence. As a result, it was found that LFH has reduced multicast delay compared to other types of multicast techniques, and that it requires lower costs as well.

Mobile IP has been designed only to maintain communications as mobile devices move from a place to a place, so it does not guarantee Quality of Service (QoS). Hierarchical MIPv6 improved QoS somewhat using Mobility Anchor Point(MAP), but QoS guarantee problem still remains. QoS in mobile IP is important to provide multimedia and real-timeapplications services in a mobile environment, and QoS is closely related to handoff delay. Therefore, handoff delay problem is actively studied as a main issue in mobile IP research area to guarantee QoS. In this paper, we suggest SNMP Information-based routing that adds keyword management method to Information-based routing in an active network in order to resolve such a problem, Suggested QoS controlled method and existing handoff method, simulations are carried out with NS-2 for performance evaluation. The results of simulations show an improvement on handoff delay, and consequently the QoS improvement.

Mobile IP storage has been proposed to overcome storage limitation in the flash memory and hard disks. It provides almost capacity-free space for mobile devices over wireless IP networks. However, battery lifetime of the mobile devices is reduced rapidly because of power consumption with continuous use of a WLAN device when multimedia contents are being streamed through the mobile IP storage. This paper proposes an energy-efficient WLAN device power control technique for streaming multimedia contents with the mobile IP storage. The proposed technique consists of a prefetch buffer input/output module, a WLAN device power control module, and a reconfigurable prefetch buffer module. Besides, it adaptively determines the size of the prefetch buffer according to a quality of the multimedia contents, and it dynamically controls the power mode of the WLAN device on the basis of power on-off operations while streaming the multimedia contents. We evaluate the performance of the proposed technique on a PXA270-based mobile device that employs the embedded linux 2.6.11, Intel iSCSI reference codes, and a WLAN device. Extensive experiments reveal that the proposed technique can save the energy consumption of the WLAN device up to 8.5 times with QVGA multimedia contents, as compared with no power control.

MANET은 유선 기반망의 도움 없이 무선 노드들 간에 서로 협력하여 다중-홉으로 정보를 주고 받을 수 있도록 해주는 네트워크이다. 최근 MANET과 인터넷 망과의 통신이 요구되고 있고 이를 위해 무선 노드가 글로벌 IP 주소를 할당 받을 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 인터넷 게이트웨이를 통해 인터넷 망과 연결된 MANET 구조에서 무선 노드가 빠르게 글로벌 IP 주소를 설정할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법의 성능 평가를 위해 NS-2로 실험을 수행했으며, 그 결과 기존 방법보다 빠르게 글로벌 IP 주소를 설정하고 네트워크 부하를 감소 시킬 수 있음을 입증하였다.
