Vehicle communication networks have some deficient network resources to support a vast multimedia service including safety driving information, video, news and some broadcast relayed from the playgrounds such as professional baseball games for autonomous vehicles. This paper deals with the framework for providing seamless multimedia service including safety driving information using multicast in cooperated-connected vehicle communication network (CVCN). It adopts smart-switch (SS) and smart intelligent multicast agent(SIMA) to support the seamless multimedia service. The SS manages and switches multimedia streams through SIMA in CVCN network. The SIMA to operate as an access point, is composed of multicast supporting part and control part of mobile devices/autonomous vehicles in CVCN network. Therefore this proposed technique using SS and SIMA within CVCN network is a new framework for multimedia service that can disperse the load of server.

The IoT(Internet of Things) service provides users with valuable services by collecting and analyzing data using Internet-connected IoT devices. Currently, IoT service platforms are accomplished by using edge computing to reduce the delay time required to collect data from IoT devices. However, if a user moves to another network with IoT device, the connection will be lost and IoT service will be suspended. To solve this problem, we proposes a service that automatically roaming IoT service when IoT device makes move. IoT roaming service provides a device automatic tracking management technique designed to continue receiving IoT services even if users move to other networks. To check if the proposed roaming service was effective, we implemented IoT roaming service and measured the data transfer time while move between networks along with devices while using IoT service. As a result, the average data transfer time was 124.62ms, and the average service interrupt time was 812.12ms. with this result, we can assume that the user could feel service interruption time very shortly and it will not affect the service experience. with IoT roaming service, we expect that it will present a method that stably providing IoT services even if user moves networks.

In this paper, design of framework architecture of pervasive computing system providing seamless inter space interactions between private and public smart spaces is presented. The seamless inter space interaction issues are related to establishing user's service environment by allocating relevant resources in a new location where there are no prior settings for the user or where there are current users already being served in the new location. In the realm of pervasive computing, we can have different types of smart spaces, offering proactive and intelligent services, which are islands of smart spaces independent from each other. As users move about, they will have to roam from private smart space to public smart space and vice versa. When they enter a new island of smart space, they will have to setup their devices and service manually to get the same or different services they had at the previous location. Users might be living in a non-pervasive computing environment because this manual operation is inappropriate to its generic features of proactive and intelligent services of pervasive computing. The framework architecture will provide seamless inter space interactions initiated by changes in users' location to acquire negotiations of resources for new and current residents regarding service provision with limited available networked devices.

The Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) paradigm equips network edge telecommunication infrastructure with cloud computing resources. It seeks to transform the edge into an IT services platform for hosting resource-intensive and delay-stringent services for mobile users, thereby significantly enhancing perceived service quality of experience. However, erratic user mobility impedes seamless service continuity as well as satisfying delay-stringent service requirements, especially as users roam farther away from the serving MEC resource, which deteriorates quality of experience. This work proposes a deep reinforcement learning based service mobility management approach for ensuring seamless migration of service instances along user mobility. The proposed approach focuses on the problem of selecting the optimal MEC resource to host services for high mobility users, thereby reducing service migration rejection rate and enhancing service availability. Efficacy of the proposed approach is confirmed through simulation experiments, where results show that on average, the proposed scheme reduces service delay by 8%, task computing time by 36%, and migration rejection rate by more than 90%, when comparing to a baseline scheme.

Mobile IPTV lets mobile users transmit and receive multimedia traffic, such as TV signals, audio, text and graphics, through IP-based networks with the support of quality of service(QoS) and quality of experience(QoE), mobility and interactivity [1]. To provide service feasibility, QoS and seamless mobility to mobile users, we consider mobility prediction, link stability, service requirements to develop resource reservation scheme in mobile IPTV environments. Thus, we study for mobility prediction and QoS-guaranteed mobile IPTV service prior to develop the resource reservation scheme.

In this paper, we present an efficient handover method avoiding ping-pong phenomenon in Wireless LAN systems. In order to provide the seamless VoIP service for terminals with mobility in Wireless LAN systems. Since the variation range of the received signal strength of the moving terminals is large, the handover procedure can be started by an instant drop of the signal strength. Then the handover procedure is repeated, which makes ping-pong phenomenon. Since the quality of service of VoIP can be lowered by ping-pong phenomenon, in this paper, we present the necessary condition to avoid the ping-pong phenomenon. Through LAB test, we show that the proposed handover method can provide an seamless service without the ping-pong phenomenon.

To provide IPTV service over mobile networks, the mechanism that reduce packet loss and interrupt of multimedia service during the handover should be supported. Especially, buffering based mechanism is preferable for supporting IPTV services in the way of preserving streaming service using stored data and recovering non-received data after handover. But previous research doesn't consider the buffer allocation for applying various environments which can change handover time or end to end delay of relay node. This paper propose DBAHAJ mechanism that optimize buffer size of mobile nodes and relay node for supporting seamless IPTV service over mobile environments. Mobile node determines buffer size by checking handover time and maximum difference of sequence to keep playing video data. And multicast agent recovers packet loss during the handover by sending buffered data. By these two procedure, node supports seamless IPTV service on mobile networks. We confirm performance of this mechanism on NS-2 simulator.

A seamless handover between the 3G LTE and legacy 3G system is required for the smooth deployment of the 3G LTE system which is the next generation cellular network system. Especially on voice call handover, the service interruption time is very sensitive for user's satisfaction and therefore, a seamless voice call handover scheme is necessarily required. However, handover between the 3G LTE and the 3G CS system is hard to be achieved due to the lack of interface between two systems and the restriction of radio resource. In this paper, a new network entity called SCSE is proposed and inter-working between the 3G LTE and the 3G CS systems is enabled. Also contributed to the feature of the SCSE, the handover procedure is simplified and the service interruption time is minimized as a consequence. The evaluation result shows that the proposed SCSE scheme exclusively meets the service interruption time requirement which is smaller than 300 ms.

In this paper, we described about core technologies required for the seamless service implementation and the communication system structure conceiving required for call & response services in order that the real-time traffic information service is consecutively provided to the vehicle moving at high speed. The SMART highway service is the information communication environment build-up concept which the real-time C&R service is comprised of the vehicle moving with 160km/h above. It was possible in case of being the low speed car in the DSRC system structure. However, there is a limit in the high speed environment as the DSRC system like a convention. In this paper, we proposed the structure of fitting for the SMART highway environment using the hand-over technique compositing the base station and several repeaters of DSRC system.

In Next Generation Wireless Networks (NGWN), lots of information, such as voice and video data, will be used in All-IP networks. It is important note that seamless service for users and handoff between heterogeneous networks must be taken into account in such environments. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a SePH(Seamless Proxy based Handoff) using PMIPv6-based proxy model which is enable to improve the performance of handoff in NGWN. The SePH can efficiently support seamless and IP-based mobility by reducing the search process. The performance results show that our proposed scheme outperforms in terms of QoS (Quality of Service) such as throughput, handoff latency, packet loss, and signaling overhead comparing to the existing schemes.
