공중무선랜은 오늘날 빠르게 증가하고 있는 무선인터넷 서비스에서 빠른 전송속도와 저렴한 설치비용 등으로 빠르게 성장하고 있는 중요한 기반요소로 평가되고 있다. 하지만 무선랜 시장에 대한 기대 뒤에는 보안에 대한 우려 또한 높아지고 있으며 로밍이나 핸드오버에 대한 수요가 커지고 있으나 실제로는 서비스 반경이 작고, 간섭에 의해 서비스 품질을 보장하기 어려우며 사용자 인증, 접근제어, 과금 부분에 있어 믿을 만한 초기 단말 인증이 보장되지 않아 도메인간 연동 문제가 쉽지 않다. 이러한 문제를 보완하여 초고속 멀티미디어 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 Mobile IP 기반 로밍 및 핸드오버에 대한 기반 기술 및 Mobile IP에 적용되는 사용자 인증 서비스에 대한 기반기술인 802.1x를 비롯하여 802.11f, Mobile IP등을 고려하여 이동성이 보장된 공중 무선랜 서비스를 위한 인증 방안을 제안하고 검증하며 제안된 방안은 차후로 ALL-IP 기반의 차세대 3G 이동통신망에서 이용될 수 있는 AAA 방안으로 확장하여 적용이 가능한 AAA 모델의 기반기술이 될 것이다.

Mobile IP는 이동단말의 macro-mobility를 지원하는 표준이다. 그런데, Mobile IP는 도메 인내에서의 빈번한 핸드오프상에서는 많은 단점이 있다. HA(Home Agent)로 빈번하게 시그널을 보내기 때문에 많은 제어 메시지 오버gp드가 있으며, 핸드오프중의 많은 패킷 손실이 있다. Micro-mobility프로토콜은 기존 mobile IP의 단점을 보완하기 위해 나온 프로토콜이다. 무선 네트웍상의 도메인내에서의 이동성을 지원하며, 손실과 메시지 오버 헤드를 줄여 핸드오프시 높은 성능향상을 주고, 효율적인 위치관리를 제공한다. TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)는 전통적인 네트웍에서 잘 동작하는 신뢰성 있는 연결지향성 전송프로토콜이다. 그러나, TCP는 Mobile IP를 이용한 무선환경하에서는 잦은 핸드오프 때문에 손실과 지연이 일어나서 많은 성능저하가 일어난다. 본 논문에서는 TCP Tahoe, Reno, NewReno, SACK를 micro-mobility 프로토콜상에서 사용하였을 때 어느 TCP버전과 micro-mobility프로토콜이 가장 효율적인지를 제시한다.

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.

In this paper we report the development of mobility test bed, the realization of basic protocol that supports L3 mobility and the measurement of performance parameters that can affect handover performance. Previously proposed mobility management system, BBM (Break Before Make) method such as MIPV6 and Fast MIPV6, uses one interface in wireless network. In this method, to connect to new AP, it first disconnects existing AP and tries to connect to new AP. This can cause packet loss for the traffic vulnerable to delay such as VoIP. To provide seamless handover between different wireless networks, we propose MBB (Make Before Break) handover method having two network interfaces. Comparative study of previous method and proposed method on mobility and handover was conducted under simulated real environment on the test bed. Almost no packet loss was found with newly proposed method. In conclusion, it is shown that mobility protocol with proposed handover method can be applied to the application services sensitive to delay and packet loss.

In this article, we propose a P2P-based mobility management protocol for global seamless handover in heterogeneous wireless networks. Unlike previous mobility management protocols such as IETF MIPv4/6 and its variants, the proposed protocol can support global seamless handover without changing the existing network infrastructure. The idea of the proposed protocol is that the location management function for mobility management is separately supported from packet forwarding function, and bidirectional IP tunnels for packet transmission are dynamically constructed between two end-to-end mobile hosts. In addition, early handover techniques have been developed to avoid large handover delays and packet losses using the IEEE 802.21 Media Independent Handover functions. The architecture and signaling procedure of the proposed protocol have been designed in detail, and the mathematical analysis and simulation have been done for performance evaluation. The performance results show that the proposed protocol outperforms the existing MIPv6 and HMIPv6 in terms of handover latency and packet loss.

With the increasing deployment of mobile devices and the advent of broadband wireless access systems such as WiBro, WiMAX, and HSDPA, an efficient IP mobility management protocol becomes one of the most important technical issues for the successful deployment of the broadband wireless data networking service. IETF has proposed the Mobile IPv6(MIPv6) as the basic mobilitymanagement protocol for IPv6 networks. To enhance the performance of the basic MIPv6, researchers have been actively working on HMIPv6 and FMIPv6 protocols. In this paper, we propose a new mobility management protocol, HIMIPv6 (Highly Integrated MIPv6), which tightly integrates the hierarchical mobility management mechanism of the HMIPv6 and the proactive handover support of the FMIPv6 to enhance the handover performance especially for the cellular networking environment with high frequent handover activities. We have performed extensive simulation study using ns-2 and the results show that the proposed HIMIPv6 outperforms MIPv6, FMIPv6 and HMIPv6 in terms of signaling overhead, service interruption and packet lost during handovers.

Providing handover with guaranteed QoS for real-time multimedia service such as VoIP, video/audio streaming, and video conferencing in wireless LAN is a challenging task. In this paper, we present efficient layer 2 handover mechanism in wireless LAN, which can provide fast handover with guaranteed QoS for real-time multimedia service. To this end, the scanning period and the number of channels per scanning for handover are dynamically adapted to the type of applications and wireless networking environment, so that both the degradation of application service quality and signaling overhead are minimized simultaneously. The performance of the proposed mechanism is verified by the simulation. The simulation results show that the proposed mechanism guarantess QoS of each multimedia application with minimal power consumption.

In order to provide the Mobile Stations operating in IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN network with seamless handover, a comprehensive study on the functions of handover considering various networking environments and characteristics of Mobile Stations is required. Note that the channel scan process finding a new AP takes the major portion of handover time, and this is the most significant issue with seamless handover for real-time multimedia service in WLAN environment. In this paper the functions required to provide seamless handover in IEEE 802.11 WLAN network are identified, and a new scanning technique is proposed with which the Mobile Stations can selectively scan the channels to reduce the channel scan time in various network environments. Here each Mobile Station awares of the channels the neighbor APs are using by scanning them in advance according to the proposed technique. Afterwards, when handover is actually required, the optimal AP is decided quickly by scanning only the predetemined group of channels and order of scan without unnecessary scan of all the channels. In addition, proposes to enter the Scan Trigger Value and Handover Threshold Value in mobile phones in order to prevent the phenomenon can not handover.

최근 Mobile IP의 기술 동향은 다양한 핸드오버 메커니즘에 초점을 이뤄 진행되고 있다. 일반적인 네트워크 구조에서 MN(Mobile Node)의 핸드오버 시점을 전후로 CN(Correspondent Node)에서 MN로 전송되는 패킷의 비 순서화는 여러 가지 문제점을 야기 시킨다. 애를 들면 전송측의 재전송 메시지 증가와 패킷손실 등 종단간에서의 심각한 성능 저하를 일으킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 IETF에서 제안한 계층적 Mobile IPv6 기반의 네트워크 구조를 바탕으로 더블 버퍼링 방식을 제안하였고 이를 통해 핸드오버 시 발생되는 비 순서적인 패킷 전송을 순서화 함으로써 위와 같은 문제점을 극복하여 종단간에 성능 향상이 기대된다.

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.
