This paper analyzes the handover latency of Mobile IP and mobile SCTP over IPv6 networks. The analytical results are compared with the performance by experiment over Linux testbed. For analysis, we consider the two handover scenarios: horizontal handover and vertical handover. From the results, we see that mSCTP can provide smaller handover latency than Mobile IP. Moreover, mSCTP can give much smaller handover latency for vertical handover, compared to horizontal handover.

The most popular world wide web traffic in the Internet uses TCP as the transport layer protocol. Since TCP utilizes the single path, it can not communicate with the correspondent host during the link-down. On the other hand, SCTP can still communicate with the other SCTP entity by using alternate path even while the primary path is down. Most of previous studies have conducted the performance comparison research between TCP and SCTP by using typical file transfer. Since web traffic with self-similarity is characterized by the packet inter-arrival times and shape parameter affecting the size of web file in the Pareto distribution, it is necessary to perform the experiments considering these parameters. This paper aims to compare the throughput between TCP and SCTP while varying parameters reflecting the web traffic characteristics in link-down environment. Experimental results for web traffic using NS-2 simulator show that the throughput of SCTP using multi-homing is better than that of TCP. Simulation also shows that TCP is more affected than SCTP by mean inter-arrival and shape parameters with regard to the web traffic. These results can be applied to estimate the performance variation of web traffic due to the duration of link-down.

Communication performance requirements are described as QoS parameters in multimedia communication Protocols including SCTP. One of the important QoS parameters is the reliability of the transfer. As a QoS parameter, the reliability defines error detection, report and correction mechanisms. Including SCTP, conventional error control mechanisms, however, do not consider the integrated viewpoint of multimedia data. In this paper, I have designed and proposed the multimedia oriented error control method based on multimedia characteristics. The proposed scheme should have the reduction effect of the communication resources such as frame buffer, procesing power and bandwidth as well as satisfy the requirements of users.

The Stream Control Transmission Protocol(SCTP) is a reliable transport layer protocol that provides several features. Multihoming is the one of the features and allows an association(SCTP's term for a connection) between two endpoints to use multiple paths. One of the paths, called a primary path, is used for initial data transmission and in the case of retransmission an alternate path is used. SCTP's current retransmission policy attempts to improve the chance of success by sending all retransmissions to an alternate destination address. However, SCTP's current retransmission policy has been shown to actually degrade performance in many circumstances. It is because that, due to Karn's algorithm, successful retransmissions on the alternate path cannot be used to update RTT(Round-Trip Time) estimation for the alternate path. In this paper we propose a scheme to avoid such performance degradation. We utilize 2bits which is not used in the flag field of DATA and SACK chunks to disambiguate original transmissions from retransmissions and to keep RTT and RTO(Retransmission Time-Out) values more accurate.

MoIP is technology to transmit a variety of multimedia over IP, but compared to traditional voice services require greater bandwidth and radio resources in a wireless environment has already reached the limits. Therefore, as a way to resolve this issue for header compression is a lot of research. SCTP protocol header compression using ROHC-SCTP has been research, ROHC-SCTP packet structure of the ROHC algorithm with different types and, SCTP header compression to apply the characteristics of the poor performance of many of these have drawbacks. Therefore, in this paper to solve these problems better header compression algorithm was designed. In this paper, the proposed algorithm to evaluate the NS-2 simulation environment was modeled on the header compression operation. Evaluation results, the algorithm designed in this paper compared to ROHC-SCTP algorithms determine the overhead rate was low, the data types vary a lot better when the total header size was small.

This paper proposes a dynamic IP address configuration (DAC) scheme for mSCTP handover, which exploits the information from the link layer to support SCTP handover between heterogeneous access networks. The proposed DAC scheme enables a mobile terminal to automatically add a new IP address in the newly visited region, change the primary path, and delete the old IP address so as to support the mSCTP handover. For experimental analysis of mSCTP handover, we consider the handover scenarios for 3G-BWA and 3G-WLAN over Linux platforms. From experimental results, it is shown that the throughput and handover latency of the mSCTP handover would be affected by the timing of primary-change and the overlapping period.

In this paper, we propose an approach to transport layer mobility support leveraging the SCTP extension dubbed dynamic address reconfiguration in IPv6 networks. Timing issues related to the end-to-end address management, and a novel error recovery mechanism associated with a handover are discussed. The proposed error recovery mechanism is analyzed and compared to that of the plain SCTP to show that it reduces the handover latency and error recovery time.

SCTP is a next generation transmission protect that is developed standards by IETF SIGTRAN working group. RFC 2960 is a transmission protocol that is more efficient for large scale data transmission like as multimedia data. In this paper we describes developing standardization trens in IETF and implementation progressing about SCTP in linux kernel.

SCTP는 TCP와 마찬가지로 연결 지향적이며 신뢰성 있는 데이터의 전송을 위한 전송 계층 프로토콜이다. SCTP는 오류 및 플로우 제어 등 많은 부분에 있어서 TCP의 방식을 그대로 따르며, 거기에 더하여 멀티스트리밍과 멀티호밍 특성을 가진다. 이 논문에서는 TCP와 다른 대표적인 특징들 중 멀티호밍이 성능에 미치는 영향을 살펴 보았다. 먼저 프로토콜간의 성능 비교를 통해서는 SCTP 프로토콜이 TCP와 다른 혼잡 제어 메커니즘을 사용함으로 인해 TCP Reno나 TCP SACK에 비해 향상된 성능을 보임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 멀티호밍을 지원하는 경우 현재의 SCTP의 재전송 정책이 프라이머리 경로와 대체 경로간의 경로 특성의 따라 성능 저하를 가져올 수 있는 잠재적인 문제점을 가짐을 확인하였다.

SCTP(Stream Control Transmission Protocol)는 새로운 전송계층 프로토콜로 TCP와 UDP의 장점을 결합한 대체 프로토콜로 기대되고 있다. 다양한 환경에서의 연구와 함께 SCTP에서 보안서비스를 제공하는 보안메커니즘에 관한 연구도 활발히 진행되고 있다. SCTP를 위한 E2E 보안메커니즘은 대부분 4계층 이상에서의 보안서비스를 결합한 방식으로 제안되고 있으며, IP계층에서의 보안을 위한 IPSEC은 멀티호밍의 특성을 적절히 지원하지 못하고 있다. 그래서 IP계층에서의 IP주소인증 및 IP패킷의 보안서비스 제공을 위한 보안메커니즘이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 멀티호밍의 SCTP에서 각 IP주소를 인증하고 비밀키를 공유하는 인증메커니즘을 제안한다.
