The current centralized mobility control protocols such as proxy mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) are dependent on a central mobility anchor to process all control/data traffic. However, such centralized mobility control protocols have some drawbacks such as traffic concentration into the core network and serious service degradation in case of the failure of such a centralized mobility anchor, etc. In this paper, therefore, in order to alleviate these drawbacks, we propose a PMIPv6-based distributed mobility control scheme considering a user's movement locality. Performance evaluation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme has apparent potentials to alleviate serious drawbacks of S-PMIP, which is a closely-related distributed mobility control scheme, as well as PMIPv6, while reducing the total mobility control cost.

Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is designed to provide a network-based localized mobility management protocol, but it does not handle the global mobility of hosts. In this paper, we propose a location management scheme based on Domain Name System (DNS) for PMIPv6. In this proposed scheme, DNS as a location manager provides PMIPv6 for global mobility. In addition, a paging extension scheme is introduced to PMIPv6 in order to support large numbers of mobile terminals and enhance network scalability. To evaluate the proposed location management scheme, we establish an analytical model, formulate the location update and the paging cost, and analyse the influence of the different factors on the total signalling cost. The performance results show how the total signal cost changes under various parameters.

This paper proposes a SDN based Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) architecture for heterogeneous vehicular networks (SDN-VANET), to provide the continuity of service during the horizontal handovers and to reduce the delay during vertical and horizontal handovers. SDN-VANET mainly relies on DSRC road side units (RSUs) for V2I communication and to overcome the coverage problem SDN-VANET performs the vertical handover between DSRC and LTE/UMTS. To date there is no standard to perform network layer vertical handovers. Therefore the proposed SDN-VANET architecture also doesn't provide any mechanism for vertical network layer handovers, but solves the horizontal network layer handovers in DSRC or LTE/UMTS through introducing PMIPv6 in the architecture.

Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is a network-based mobility support protocol and it does not require Mobile Nodes (MNs) to be involved in the mobility support signaling. In the case when multiple interfaces are active in an MN simultaneously, each data flow can be dynamically allocated to and redirected between different access networks to adapt to the dynamically changing network status and to balance the workload. Such a flow redistribution control is called "flow mobility". In the existing PMIPv6-based flow mobility support, although the MN's logical interface can solve the well-known problems of flow mobility in a heterogeneous network, some missing procedures, such as an MN-derived flow handover, make PMIPv6-based flow mobility incomplete. In this paper, an enhanced flow mobility support is proposed for actualizing the flow mobility support in PMIPv6. The proposed scheme is also based on the MN's logical interface, which hides the physical interfaces from the network layer and above. As new functional modules, the flow interface manager is placed at the MN's logical interface and the flow binding manager in the Local Mobility Anchor (LMA) is paired with the MN's flow interface manager. They manage the flow bindings, and select the proper access technology to send packets. In this paper, we provide the complete flow mobility procedures which begin with the following three different triggering cases: the MN's new connection/disconnection, the LMA's decision, and the MN's request. Simulation using the ns-3 network simulator is performed to verify the proposed procedures and we show the network throughput variation caused by the network offload using the proposed procedures.

This paper reinforced security under the network evaluation of wire wireless integration of NEMO (NEwork MObility) supporting mobility and network-based PMIPv6 (Proxy Mobile IPv6). It also proposes $SK-L^2AS$ (Symmetric Key-Based Local-Lighted Authentication Scheme) based on simple key which reduces code calculation and authentication delay costs. Moreover, fast handover technique was also adopted to reduce handover delay time in PMIPv6 and X-FPMIPv6 (eXtension of Fast Handover for PMIPv6) was used to support global mobility. In addition, AX-FPMIPv6 (Authentication eXtension of Fast Handover for PMIPv6) is proposed which integrated $SK-L^2AS$ and X-FPMIPv6 by applying Piggybacks method to reduce the overhead of authentication and signaling. The AX-FPMIPv6 technique suggested in this paper shows that this technique is better than the existing schemes in authentication and handover delay according to the performance analysis.

본 논문은 Proxy Mobile IPv6 환경에서 모바일 노드의 통신이 경로 최적화 기법을 적용한 상태에서 다른 MAG로의 이동성을 보장하는 경로 최적화 기법에 대해 연구하였다. Proxy Mobile IPv6 환경에서 삼각 라우팅 문제를 해결하기 위해 경로 최적화를 수행할 때 빠른 처리 속도와 안정성을 가지는 방법을 이동성과 함께 보장하는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 경로 최적화 기법 중 Liebsch의 기법과 Dutta의 기법들의 문제점인 높은 시그널링 비용이나 이중 소비가 발생하는 비효율적인 측면이 있다. 본 논문에서는 적은 시그널링 비용으로 Local Mobility Anchor와 Mobile Access Gateway로부터 메시지를 받을 경우 모바일 노드의 다른 MAG 간 이동성을 보장하는 경로 최적화 기법에 대해 연구하였다.

PMIPv6 (Proxy Mobile IPv6)는 네트워크 기반 이동성 지원 프로토콜로 MN (Mobile Node)의 이동성 프로토콜 스택 유무와 관계없이 MN의 이동성을 지원한다. 하지만 핸드오버 과정에서 이동성 관련 시그널링을 완료할 때까지 지연이 발생하고 핸드오버 동안 MN으로 향하는 패킷이 손실된다는 단점을 갖고 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위한 기법으로 FPMIPv6 (Fast Handover for PMIPv6)가 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 PMIPv6의 오픈소스인 OAI PMIPv6 (OpenAirInterface PMIPv6)를 기반으로 FPMIPv6 테스트베드를 구축하고 MN의 핸드오버를 실험하여 실제 FPMIPv6 환경에서의 핸드오버 지연 및 패킷 손실 정도를 측정한다.

Of several approaches for future Internet, separating two properties of IP address into locator and identifier, is being considered as a highly likely solution. IETF's LISP (Locator ID Separation Protocol) is proposed for this architecture. In particular, the LISP model easily allows for device mobility through simple update of information at MS (Mapping Server) without a separate protocol. In recent years, some of the models supporting device mobility using such LISP attributes have emerged; however, most of them have the limitation for seamless mobility support due to the frequent MS information updates and the time required for the updates. In this paper, PMIPv6 (Proxy Mobile IPv6) model is applied for mobility support in LISP model. PMIPv6 is a method that can support mobility based on network without the help of device; thus, this we define anew the behavior of functional modules (LMA, MAG and MS) to fit this model to the LISP environment and present specifically procedures of device registration, data transfer, route optimization and handover. In addition, our approach improves the communication performance using three tunnels identified with locators between mobile node and corresponding node and using a route optimized tunnel between MN's MAG and CN's MAG. Finally, it allows for seamless mobility by designing a sophisticated handover procedure.

In the paper, we proposed the Using Correspondent Information for Route Optimization on PMIPv6 over Inter-MAG. Proxy Mobile IPv6 has the problem that a mobile node sends data packets through inefficient routing paths when communicating other mobile node. Route optimization schemes are proposed to solve the triangle routing problem that creates the shortest routing path by leaving the inefficient routing paths. We proposed Correspondent Information Route Optimization scheme to reduce signaling cost as compared with other route optimization scheme. We can reduce signaling cost of route optimization through the Correspondent Information message on basic PMIPv6 and hand-off environment.

In this paper, we consider the problem of applying NEMO in PMIPv6, and propose a method to support network mobility. When an MR enters a PMIPv6 domain, an MAG recognizes the MR to access using the BU message. And the MAG makes a tunnel between the MAG and the MR. The MR do not make tunnel fundamentally except for handover. Therefore, the PMIPv6 protocol needs to modify the original algorithm and the BCE data filed. However, the proposed method can use NEMO without protocol modification. To show verification, we implement our proposed algorithm with added BCE data filed using C program, and configure a testbed network. Through a network connectivity procedure, we can see that our proposed method can support network mobility within the PMIPv6 network.
