6LoWPAN 센서 노드의 이동성을 지원하기 위해 기존의 Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6)와 같은 프로토콜을 활용하는 것은 저전력에 제한적 사양의 하드웨어로 구성된 6LoWPAN 센서 노드에서 구동되는 것이 현실적으로 불가능하다. 따라서 Mobile Access Gateway (MAG)가 6LoWPAN 센서 노드의 이동시 발생하는 바인딩 시그널링을 대신 처리해주는 Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) 프로토콜을 6LoWPAN에 적용하면 효율적으로 이동성을 지원할 수 있다. 하지만 Proxy Mobile IPv6는 6LoWPAN 이동 센서 노드와 1홉으로 연결되는 경우에 6LoWPAN 이동 센서 노드의 이동을 인지하고 Proxy Binding Update(PBU)를 하게 되지만, 6LoWPAN 센서 네트워크와 같이 멀티 홉으로 구성되는 네트워크에는 Proxy Mobile IPv6를 바로 적용할 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 1홉 단위로 연결된 6LoWPAN 이동 센서 노드의 이동성을 지원하는 Proxy Mobile IPv6 프로토콜을 멀티를 환경의 6LoWPAN 센서 네트워크에 적용하기 위한 방법을 제안한다.

With the rapid development of heterogeneous emerging wireless technologies and numerous types of mobile devices, the need to support robust mobile video streaming based on the seamless handover in Future Internet is growing. To support the seamless handover, several IP-based mobility management protocols such as Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6), fast handover for the MIPv6 (FMIPv6), Hierarchical MIPv6 (HMIPv6) and Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) were developed. However, MIPv6 depreciates the Quality-of-Service (QoS) and FMIPv6 is not robust for the video services in heterogeneous emerging wireless networks when the Mobile Node (MN) may move to another visited network in contrast with its anticipation. In Future Internet, the possibility of mobile video service failure is more increased because mobile users consisting of multiple wireless network interfaces (WNICs) can frequently change the access networks according to their mobility in heterogeneous wireless access networks such as 3Generation (3G), Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi), Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMax) and Bluetooth co-existed. And in this environment, seamless mobility is coupled according to user preferences, enabling mobile users to be "Always Best Connected" (ABC) so that Quality of Experience is optimised and maintained. Even though HMIPv6 and PMIPv6 are proposed for the location management, handover latency enhancement, they still have limit of local mobility region. In this paper, we propose a robust mobile video streaming in Heterogeneous Emerging Wireless Systems. In the proposed scheme, the MN selects the best-according to an appropriate metric-wireless technology for a robust video streaming service among all wireless technologies by reducing the handover latency and initiation time when handover may fail. Through performance evaluation, we show that our scheme provides more robust mechanism than other schemes.

In a wireless network, handover latency is very important in supporting user mobility with the required quality of service (QoS). In view of this many schemes have been developed which aim to reduce the handover latency. The Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) approach is one such scheme which reduces the high handover latency that arises when mobile nodes perform frequent handover in Mobile IPv6 wireless networks. Although HMIPv6 reduces handoff latency, failures in the mobility anchor point (MAP) results in severe disruption or total disconnection that can seriously affect user satisfaction in ongoing sessions between the mobile and its correspondent nodes. HMIPv6 can avoid this situation by using more than one mobility anchor point for each link. In [3], an improved Robust Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (RH-MIPv6) scheme is presented which enhances the HMIPv6 method by providing a fault-tolerant mobile service using two different MAPs (Primary and Secondary). It has been shown that the RH-MIPv6 scheme can achieve approximately 60% faster recovery times compared with the standard HMIPv6 approach. However, if mobile nodes perform frequent handover in RH-MIPv6, these changes incur a high communication overhead which is configured by two local binding update units (LBUs) as to two MAPs. To reduce this communication overhead, a new cost-reduced binding update scheme is proposed here, which reduces the communication overhead compared to previous schemes, by using an increased number of MAP switches. Using this new proposed method, it is shown that there is a 19.6% performance improvement in terms of the total handover latency.

최근 무선네트워크의 급격한 발달로 이동 중에도 통신을 할 수 있는 요구사항에 IETF에서는 Mobile IPv6(MIPv6)라는 기술을 제안하였다. MIPv6는 IPv6환경에서 모바일 노드(모바일 노드)가 이동을 하면서도 통신을 할 수 있는 기술인데, 실제 상용망에서는 사용되지 않고 있다. 그 이유는 모바일 노드에 이동성을 제공하는 모바일 스택의 탑재가 높은 오버헤드를 가지고 있고, 시그널링 비용이 많이 들기때문이다. 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위해서 지난 해 Proxy Mobile IPv6(PMIPv6)가 표준화 되었다. PMIPv6는 모바일 노드에 이동성을 제공하는 모바일 스택을 올리지 않고 네트워크 엔티티가 대신 모바일 스택을 가지고 시그널링을 처리하기 때문에 결과적으로 시그널링 비용을 줄였다. 하지만 PMIPv6에서는 인접한 네트워크 사이에서 패킷을 전송할 때 MAG간의 통신이 가능하지 않고, 오직 LMA를 통하여 대응 노드(대응 노드)에게 패킷을 전송할 수 있다. 게다가 같은 서브넷에 있는 대응 노드에게 패킷을 전송할 때도 LMA를 거치게 되는 불필요한 과정이 발생한다. 게다가 LMA를 통하여 패킷을 전송하는 방식은 지연과 리오더링(Re-Ordering)을 발생시켜본 패킷 재전송을 유발하여 전송 품질을 떨어뜨리게 된다. 본 논문에서는 인접한 MAG간의 통신, 또는 같은 서브넷 내에서의 통신에서 LMA를 거치지 않고 통신을 할 수 있는 방안으로 블룸 필터를 이용한 통신 기법을 제안한다.

In MIPv6, unauthenticated binding updates expose the involved MN and CN to various security attacks. Thus, protecting the binding update process becomes of paramount importance in the MIPv6, and several secure binding update protocols have been proposed. In this paper, we pro-pose a novel protocol for the secure binding updates in MIPv6, which can resolve the drawbacks of the Deng-Zhou-Bao's protocol ［2］, by adopt-ing Aura's CGA scheme with two hashes ［9］. Aura's scheme enables our protocol to achieve stronger security than other CGA-based protocols without a trusted CA, resulting in less cost of verifying the HA's public key than the Deng-Zhou-Bao's protocol. Through the comparison of our protocol with other protocols such as the Deng-Zhou-Bao's protocol, CAM-DH and SUCV, we show that our protocol can provide better performance and manageability in addition to stronger security than other approaches.

기존의 MIPv6는 오랜 시간동안의 핸드오버로 인하여 많은 패킷 손실 및 오랜 세션 단절을 야기시킨다. 이러한 문제점들을 향상시키기 위하여 Fast handover for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) 프로토콜이 개발되었지만 여전히 터널링에 기반한 라우팅 방법은 패킷 순서 어긋남 문제로 인하여 성능이 하락하는 문제를 야기한다. 최근 모바일 단말에서의 이동성 관리 부하를 줄여주기 위하여, 네트워크 이동성 기반인 Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6)가 제안되었다. PMIPv6는 모바일 단말에서 수행하던 이동성 관리를 네트워크 에이전트에서 해줌으로서 단말의 부하를 줄이고 이동성 관리 지연 시간을 줄일 수 있다. 하지만 현재 제안된 PMIPv6 또한 터널링 기법에 기반한 비효율적인 라우팅 경로로 인하여 성능이 저하될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 PMIPv6 에서 안정되고 향상된 최적화 라우팅 기술이 접목된 빠른 핸드오버 방법인 Fast Proxy Mobile IPv6 (EF-PMIPv6) 제안한다.

Recently, IETF Mobile IP WG focus on security problem issues in Mobile IPv6 and provide appropriate protocol to solve them. These include the protections of Binding Updates both to home agents and correspondent nodes, prefix discovery messages and transporting data packets. In Mobile IPv6, control traffics between home agents and mobile nodes uses IPsec to avoid that mobile nodes and correspondent nodes may be vulnerable to attacks. It is used, however, Return Routability procedure for correspondent node to assure that the right mobile node is sending the messages. In this paper, we propose method of IPser processing to protect messages between home agents and mobile nodes.

Without a proper protection mechanism for the signaling messages to be used for the mobility support in the Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6), it is also vulnerable to several security attacks such as redirect attack, MITM (Man-In-The-Middle) attack, replay attack and DoS (Denial of Service) attack as in Mobile IPv6. In this paper, we point out some problems of previous authentication mechanisms associated with PMIPv6, and also propose a new fast and secure authentication mechanism applicable to PMIPv6. In addition, it is also shown that the proposed one is more efficient and secure than the previous ones.

With the rapidly increasing demand of traffic applications, the need to support seamless and robust multimedia services in the Vehicular Ad hoc Network is growing. Fast handover for the MIPv6 (FMIPv6) developed to solve the MIPv6's problem as well as Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) for basic mobility protocol have been developed to support seamless handover in mobile environment. However, MIPv6 and FMIPv6 are useless for Quality-of-Service (QoS) services such as multimedia applications due to the long handover latency and the packet loss problem. In this paper, we propose a seamless and robust handover scheme that supports multimedia services in Vehicular Ad hoc Network using oCoA and background DAD. Through performance evaluation, we show that the proposed scheme is more proper for Vehicular Ad hoc Network than other schemes.

The challenges of rapidly growing numbers of mobile nodes in IPv6-based networks are being faced by mobile computing researchers worldwide. Recently, IETF has standardized Mobile IPv6 and Fast Handover for Mobile IPv6(FMIPv6) for supporting IPv6 mobility. Even though existing literatures have asserted that FMIPv6 generally improves MIPv6 in terms of handover speed, they did not carefully consider the details of the whole handover procedures. Therefore, in conventional protocols, the handover process reveals numerous problems manifested by a time-consuming network layer based movement detection and latency in configuring a new care of address with confirmation. In this article, we study the impact of the address configuration and confirmation procedure on the IP handover latency. To mitigate such effects, we propose a new scheme which can reduce the latency taken by the movement detection, address configuration and confirmation from the whole handover latency. Furthermore, a mathematical analysis is provided to show the benefits of our scheme. In the analysis, various parameters are used to compare our scheme with the current procedures, while our approach is focused on the reduction of handover latency. Finally, we demonstrate total handover scenarios for the proposed techniques and discussed the major factors which contribute to the handover latency.
