Unlike host-based IPv6 mobility support protocols such as Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6), Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6), and Fast handover for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6), Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is expected to accelerate the real deployment of IPv6 mobility support protocol by using only collaborative operations between the network entities without mobile node (MN) being involved. In this paper, we analyze and compare the handover latency of network-based IPv6 mobility support protocol (i.e., PMIPv6) with the representative host-based IPv6 mobility support protocols such as MIPv6, HMIPv6, and FMIPv6. Analytical results show that the handover latency of PMIPv6 is considerably lower than those of MIPv6 and HMIPv6, and the handover latency of PMIPv6 becomes lower than that of FMIPv6 in case the wireless link delay is greater than the delay between mobile access gateway (MAG) and local mobility anchor (LMA).

In the existing literature, the handover process reveals numerous problems manifested by high movement detection latency. FMIPv6 can reduce packet loss using a tunnel-based handover mechanism. However, this mechanism may cause performance degradation due to the out-of-sequence packets. Recently. Proxy Mobile IPv6 is proposed for network-based mobility management to reduce overhead in mobile node. PMIPv6 can decrease handover latency which related overhead in MN by using network agent. In this paper, we proposed optimized fast handover scheme called Fast Proxy Mobile IPv6 (EF-PMIPv6). The proposed EF-PMIPv6 can support fast handover using fast IAPP and ND schemes. Further, 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 focuses on the reduction of handover latency.

Mobile Virtual Private Network (MVPN) provides VPN services without geographical restriction to mobile workers using mobile devices. Coexistence of Mobile IP (MIP) protocol for mobility and IPsec-based VPN technology are necessary in order to provide continuous VPN service to mobile users. However, Problems like registration failure or frequent IPsec tunnel re-negotiation occur when IPsec-based VPN Gateway (GW) and MIP are used together. In order to solve these problems, IETF proposes a mechanism which uses external home agent (x-HA) located external to the corporate VPN GW. In addition, based on the IETF proposal, a mechanism that assigns x-HA dynamically in the networks where MN is currently located was also proposed with the purpose to reduce handover latency as well as end-to-end delay. However, this mechanism has problems such as exposure of a session key for dynamic Mobility Security Association (MSA) or a long latency in case of the handover between different networks. In this paper, we propose a new MVPN protocol in order to minimize handover latency, enhance the security in key exchange, and to reduce data losses cause by handover. Through a course of simulation, the performance of proposed protocol is compared with the existing mechanism.

In a network-based approach such as Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6), the serving network controls the mobility management on behalf of a Mobile Node (MN), thereby eliminating a MN from any mobility-related signaling. Although PMIPv6 is being standardized by the IETF NetLMM WG, PMIPv6 still suffers from a lengthy handover latency and the on-the-fly packet loss during a handover. Therefore, this paper presents an enhanced fast handover scheme for PMIPv6. The proposed handover scheme uses the Neighbor Discovery message of IPv6 to reduce the handover latency and packet buffering at the Mobile Access Gateway (MAG) to avoid the on-the-fly packet loss during a handover. In addition, it uses an additional packet buffering at the Local Mobility Anchor (LMA) to solve the packet ordering problem. We evaluate the performance of the proposed handover scheme using both analytical model and simulation. The numerical analysis shows that the proposed scheme has a relatively shorter handover latency. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme could avoid the on-the-fly packet loss and ensure the packet sequence.

Defect-free transfer service on the Next-generation wireless network extensive roaming mobile node (MN) to provide efficient mobility management has become very important. MIPv6(Mobility IPv6) is one of mobility management scheme proposed by IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force), and IPv6-based mobility management techniques have been developed in various forms. One of each management techniques, IPv6-based mobility management techniques for PMIPv6 (MIPv6) system to improve the performance of a variety of F-PMIPv6 (Fast Handover for Proxy MIPv6) is proposed. However, the F-PMIPv6 is cannot be excellent than PMIPv6 in all scenarios. Therefor, to select a proper mobility management scheme between PMIPv6 and F-PMIPv6 becomes an interesting issue, for its potenrials in enhancing the capacity and scalability of the system. In this paper, we develop an analytical model to analyze the applicability of PMIPv6 and F-PMIPv6. Based on this model, we design an Secure Smart Mobility Support(SSM) scheme that selects the better alternative between PMIPv6 and F-PMIPv6 for a user according to its changing mobility and service characteristics. When F-PMIPv6 is adopted, SSM chooses the best mobility anchor point and regional size to optimize the system performance. Numerical results illustrate the impact of some key parameters on the applicability of PMIPv6 and F-PMIPv6. Finally, SSM has proven even better result than PMIPv6 and F-PMIPv6.

다양한 무선 네트워킹의 출현은 유무선 혼합형태의 네트워크 망으로 변화되면서 기존의 유선 중심의 네트워크 기반으로 구현된 TCP에 많은 문제점을 가져왔다. 높은 비트오류율, 낮은 대역폭 그리고 높은 지연 등은 TCP/IP 통신을 효율적으로 지원하지 못하는 원인이 된다. 또한 BS(Base Station:기지국)에서 보낸 패킷이 MH(Mobile Node : 이동성을 갖는 노드)가 수신범위 밖으로 벗어나면서 손실로 이어질 경우 성능 저하의 원인이 되기도 한다. 본 논문에서는 MN의 ACK에 수신신호 관련 flag bit를 추가하면서 BS에서 추가된 ACK의 flag bit를 이용해서 패킷손실을 최소화하는 기법을 제안한다.

[ $IP^2$ ] (IP-based IMT Network Platform) is a ubiquitous platform supporting mobility using two step If address IPha (IP host address) and IPra (IP routing address) - in a backbone network. MN (Mobile Node) in $IP^2$ maintains either Active or Dormant state, which is transferred to Active state through Paging process when communication is required. In this paper, we proposed a Paging method using proxy to resolve the problem of the conventional Paging method which transmits the Paging messages to all cells in LA (Location Area) resulting in the excessive use of network resources. Performanceevaluation of the proposed method using NS-2 showed that the usage of network resources becomes more efficient by reducing paging loads, especially under the condition of increased nodes.

모바일 유저를 위한 무결점 전송 서비스는 최근에 모바일 통신에 있어 가장 중요한 논제 중 하나가 되었다. 차세대 무선 네트워크(Next Generation Wireless Networks, NGWN)상에서의 무결점 서비스는 이동단말(MN, Mobile Node)에게 광범위한 로밍을 효율적으로 제공하는 이동성관리가 매우 중요하게 되었다. MIPv6(Mobility IPv6)는 IETF(The Internet Engineering Task Force)에 의해 제안된 이동성관리 기법들 중 하나이다. IPv6기반에서 이동성관리 기법들은 다양한 형태로 발전되어왔다. 각각의 관리 기법들은 이동단말에서의 데이터 이동에 직접적인 관여를 하고 있다. 이 논문에서 두 가지의 이동성관리 평가기법에 대해 제안하고자 한다. 이동성관리를 위한 다양한 프로토콜에서 네트워크상의 핸드오버나 패킷의 전송절차를 수행할 때, 데이터의 전송절차에 대하여 분석하며 또 시그널링의 비용을 산정함에 있어 연산처리하는 노드들과 그 노드간의 파라미터들을 이용하여 가장 효율적인 방법으로 분석모델링을 제안한다. 이동성 프로토콜의 시그널링 비용과 그 비용을 구성하는 각각의 파라미터들을, 수치적 결과를 통해서 각각의 프로토콜들의 비용을 분석한다. 비용은 시그널링 비용과 패킷전송의 합이며, 각각의 이동성관리 기법에 적용하여 그 비용을 분석한다. 이동성 관리의 다양한 기법들 중 가장 최근에 제안되어지고 있는 네트워크 기반의 이동성 프로토콜이 전체적인 비용측면에서 더 우수한 결과를 보여준다.
