This paper proposes a ubiquitous robot, Ubibot, as an integration of three forms of robots: Software robot (Sobot), Embedded robot (Embot) and Mobile robot (Mobot). A Sobot is a virtual robot, which has the ability to move to any place or connect to any device through a network in order to overcome spatial limitations. It has the capacity to interpret the context and thus interact with the user. An Embot is embedded within the environment or within physical robots. It can recognize the locations of and authenticate the user or robot, and synthesize sensing information. Also it has the ability to deliver essential information to the user or other components of Ubibot by using various types of output devices. A Mobot provides integrated mobile service. In addition, Middleware intervenes different protocols between Sobot, Embot, and Mobot in order to incorporate them reliably. The services provided by Ubibot will be seamless, calm and context-aware based on the combination of these components. This paper presents the basic concepts and structure of Ubibot. A Sobot, called Rity, is introduced in order to investigate the usability of the proposed concepts. Rity is a 3D synthetic character which exists in the virtual world, has a unique IP address and interacts with human beings through Vision Embot, Sound Embot, Position Embot and Voice Embot. Rity is capable of moving into a Mobot and controlling its mobility. In doing so, Rity can express its behavior in the virtual world, for example, wondering or moving about in the real world. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of implementing a Ubibot in a networked environment.

Wireless LAN(wireless Local Area Network) is constructed network environment by radio in indoors or outdoors environment and that to use electric wave or light instead of wire to client such as PC(Personal Computer), notebook, PDA in hub(Hub) in technological side. Now, among IEEE 802.11 WG(Working Group), there is TGf(Task Group F) that develop standard protocol between AP's(Access Point). In this group, proposed IAPP(Inter Access Point Protocol) to secure interoperability between AP producing in different manufacturer, this offers seamless connectivity between STA by sharing Security Context information or Layer 2 forwarding information between AP without passing through re-authentication process when STAs(Station) move by protocol to secure mobility between AP that differ in equal serve network. In this paper, I wish to suggest method that change avenue of communication of message to block information leakage that can occur at security message or WEP Key transmission between above AP, and uses public key to offer wireless area security little more.

Super Wi-Fi is a newly emerging wireless Internet technology, which constitutes Wi-Fi networks using TV white space. A key technical challenge in the Super Wi-Fi applications is how to provide a seamless Internet service even when a Super WiFi user should give up the channel in use to the active incumbent user which is activated in the same service area, preventing from the service continuity in Super Wi-Fi. In this paper, we propose a channel handover method to support service continuity of Super Wi-Fi, in which an AP selects a new operational channel and provides the channel information for MSs. Therefore, the AP and the MSs can carry out seamless handover for Super Wi-Fi service. A performance evaluation shows that the proposed scheme is superior to the conventional Wi-Fi in channel mobility delay.

Recently, as wired and wireless communication services have rapidly developed and multimodal mobile devices which have various characteristics have widely spread, the need for new convergence services increases. The growing population of VoIP technologies and the high communication expense yield that the market of IP based telephony such as WiFi phone and IP phone is substituted for one of the conventional PSTN telephony. With the help of this trend, the wireline network operators desire to find a market in mobile networks. Therefore, they focus on Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) service as one of the key factors to accomplish this goal. FMC services are able to provide the mobility of voice services between circuit switched and packet switched networks. IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) based Voice Call Continuity (VCC) is one of the schemes to embody FMC services. As Application Server (AS) which has this VCC function provides seamless handover of services between heterogeneous networks, FMC subscribers can communicate seamlessly with others m WiFi domain and COMA domain using WiFi-COMA dual phone. Most of enterprises have already introduced IP network infrastructure and IP-PBX (Private Branch eXchange) for telephony. However, the problems of high communication cost and work inefficiency due to frequent outside jobs or business trips have remained. In order to solve these problems, demands for enterprise FMC services increase. In this paper, we introduce a new IP-PBX based VCC model that can provide seamless handover of voice services between WiFi and COMA networks for enterprise users and we investigate some interworking and security issues between Soft Switch (SSW) and IMS, or between IMSs. In addition, we introduce a new service that can provide the continuity of voice sessions as well as video sessions using Multimedia Session Continuity (MMSC) technology which has evolved from VCC. This service is expected to be one of the next-generation personalized services based on user's context.

Mobile WiMAX is an emerging technology that can provide ubiquitous Internet access. To provide seamless service in mobile WiMAX environment, delay or disruption in dealing with mobility must be minimized. However offering seamless services on IEEE 802.16e networks is very hard due to long handover latency both in layer 2 and 3. In this paper, we propose a fast cross-layer handover scheme based on prediction algorithm. With the help of the prediction, layer-3 handover activities are able to occur prior to layer-2 handover, and therefore, total handover latency can be reduced. The experiments conducted with system parameters and propagation model defined by WiMAX Forum demonstrate that the proposed method predicts the future signal level accurately and reduces the total handover latency.

Handover in high speed mobile communication service, in particulary mobile WiMAX is supported efficiency mobility to 120km/h speed. But, in order to accommodate number of user increment in a cell, wireless network is increment to microcell and picocell by allocate bandwidth and by decrease cell size. handover is occurrent and increment connection failure ratio In this result. IEEE 802.16 standard is support seamless connection through handover optimization scheme. But because authentication process is abbreviate, network weakness is exposure. In this paper, we propose handover scheme for support realtime service as VoIP, Picure communication, Streaming Data Service in order to support partially encryption method. In experiment, proposed scheme is proof which process time is increment 20% more than previous scheme.

To support seamless IPTV services in IP-based wireless network, delay or interruption time must be minimized because noticeable interruption will make IPTV service users unhappy. A number of protocols have been proposed for solving mobility problem. However effective seamless handover mechanism to support mobile IPTV services yet to be solved. Mobile WiMAX offers a wireless solution in the access networks that can support IPTV services. Goal of this paper is to identify some reasons of delay time during handover process in an IPv6 capable Mobile WiMAX and to perform handover delay of some optimization scenarios given by existing standardization and proposed improvement.

In Mobile IP, several types of messages - binding update, binding request and binding acknowledgement - are used to support user mobility. It is necessary to exchange those messages frequently for seamless mobility but it incurs both the increase of network overhead and poor usage of mobile node battery power Thus, we need a mechanism that the server detects users location and also copes with the problems effectively, which is our main concern in this paper Each user records all moving logs locally and periodically makes out profile based on them in HMIPv6. By using profile, estimated resident time can be computed whenever he enters an area and the time is set up as the binding update message lifetime. Of course, the more correct lifetime nay be obtained IP arrival time as well as average resident time Is considered in profile. Through extensive experiments, we measure the bandwidth usage for binding update messages by comparing the proposed schemes with that in HMIPv6. From the results, Gain gets over $80\%$ when mobile node stays more than 13 minutes in a subnet. Namely, we come to know that our schemes improve network usage and energy usage in mobile node by decreasing the number of messages while they also manage users locations like that in HMIPv6.

Future wireless systems will be required to support the increasingly nomadic lifestyle of people. This support will be provided through the use of multiple overlaid networks which have very different characteristics. Moreover, these networks will be required to support the seamless delivery of today's popular desktop services, such as web browsing, interactive multimedia and video conferencing to the mobile devices. Thus one of the major challenges in the design of these mobile systems will be the provision of the quality of service (QoS) guarantees that the applications demand under this diverse networking infrastructure. We believe that it is necessary to use resource reservation and adaptation techniques to deliver these QoS guarantee to applications. However, reservation and pre-configuration in the entire service region is overly aggressive, and results in schemes that are extremely inefficient and unreliable. To overcome this, the mobility pattern of a user can be exploited. If the movement of a user is known, the reservation and configuration procedure can be limited to the regions of the network a user is likely to visit. Our proposed Proxy-UMP is not sensitive to increase of the search cost than other schemes and shows that the increasing rate of total cost is low as the SMR increases.

The Mobile W provides an efficient and scalable mechanism for host mobility within the Internet. However, the mobility implies higher security risks than static operations in fixed networks. In this paper, the Mobile IP has been adapted to allow AAA protocol that supports authentication, authorization, and accounting(AAA) for security and collection for accounting information of network usage by mobile nodes(MNs). For this goal, we Propose the boundary tone overlapped network structure while solidifying the security for the authentication of an MN. That is, the Proposed scheme delivers the session keys at the wired link for MN's security instead of the wireless one, so that it provides a fast and seamless handoff mechanism. According to the analysis of modeling result, the proposed mechanism compared to the existing session key reuse method is up to about $40\%$ better in terms of normalized surcharge for the handoff failure rate that considers handoff total time.
