  • Recently, multimedia streaming service has been activated, and the demand for high-quality multimedia convergence contents services is predicted to increase significantly in the future. The issues of the increasing network load due to the rise of multimedia streaming traffic must be addressed in order to provide QoS guaranteed services. To do this, an efficient network resource management and mobility support technologies are needed through seamless mobility support for heterogeneous networks. Therefore, in this paper, an MIH technology was used to recognize the network situation information in advance and reduce packet loss due to handover delays, and an ACLMIH-FHPMIPv6 is designed that can provide an intelligent interface through introducing a hierarchical mobility management technique in FPMIPv6 integrated network.

  • Wireless network systems provide fast data transmission rates and various services to users of mobile devices such as smartphones and smart pads. Because many people use high-performance mobile devices, the use of real-time multimedia services is increasing rapidly. However, the preoccupation of resources by real-time traffic users is causing harm to other services-for example, frequent call interference, lowered service quality, and poor network performance. This paper suggests a resource allocation algorithm for effective traffic service support in a hybrid network. The main objective is to obtain an optimum value of data rates by comparing user requirements with the amount of resources that can be allocated. A new mechanism based on Adaptive-Quality of Service (QoS) and a monitoring system based on Queue-Aware are proposed. Adaptive-QoS supports effective resource control according to the type of traffic service, and the monitoring system based on Queue-Aware measures the amount of resources in order to calculate the maximum that can be allocated. We apply our algorithm to a test system and use Qualnet 4.5.1 to evaluate its performance.

  • 4G 네트워크로 불라는 차세대 네트워크는 All IP 기반으로 구성되며 여기서는 다양한 특성을 갖는 네트워크 간의 통합이 이루어질 것으로 예측된다. 이러한 4G 네트워크에서의 동종 혹은 이종 망간의 이동 단말의 끊김없는 이동성 제공이 중요한 요소 기술 중 하나로 간주된다. 이동성 제공을 위해 IETF 워킹 그룹에서는 Mobile IP (MIP) 기술을 제안하였고, 차세대 네트워크에서 중요한 역할을 수행할 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 MIP 기술은 이동 단말의 매크로 이동성 (macro mobility)을 지원하기 위해 제안되었기 때문에 긴 핸드오버 지연 시간에 따른 패킷 손실 및 성능 저하를 초래하는 문제점이 존재한다. 따라서 차세대 네트워크에서 이동 단말의 이종 망 핸드오버를 지원하기 위해서는 기존 구축된 네트워크와의 호환성을 제공해 주는 것과 동시에 끊김없는 연결성을 제공해 주는 기법이 필요하다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 이종 망간의 이동 단말의 움직임에도 끊김없는 연결성을 제공해 줄 수 있는 핸드오버 시스템을 제안한다. 제안하는 시스템은 공통 네트워크 인터페이스로 설계되어 사용되는 무선 기술에 상관없이 투명한 서비스를 IP/MIP 레이어에 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 시스템을 바탕으로 약결합 네트워크 기반의 cdma2000/무선랜 설험 네트워크를 구축하여 이동 단말의 버티컬 핸드오버 성능을 측정한다. 측정한 핸드오버 성능을 바탕으로 제안한 시스템이 기존 코어 네트워크 및 IP/MIP 레이어 수정없이 여러 이종 망간의 핸드오버 시에 끊김없는 서비스를 이동 단말에게 제공해 준다는 것을 보여준다.

  • In this paper, we propose the virtual interface management scheme on the multi-mode mobile node for supporting multiple connections to various access networks in fixed mobile convergence (FMC) networks. The proposed scheme supports the virtualization of multiple physical network interfaces by presenting only the virtual interface to beyond IP layers and hiding physical network interfaces from them. In the proposed scheme, only one IP address is allocated to virtual interface without any IP allocations to physical network interfaces. Therefore, the proposed scheme does not change its IP address and keep it during the vertical handover, so that it can support the seamless handover of real-time multimedia services among heterogeneous access networks. The proposed scheme is implemented on the multi-mode mobile node with multiple network interfaces by using NDIS (Network Driver Interface Specifications) libraries. Through the mobility test-bed and the test application of virtual interface, we evaluate and analyze the performance of the proposed scheme.

  • With the development of wireless network technologies, mobile users may use various networks easily and expect more advanced services. On the other hand, it may bring on some problems with network resource management that should lead the service provider to improve the current service quality and manage the network resource efficiently. This paper proposes the optimized radio resource management (RRM) scheme that integrates the Grey Relational Analysis (GRA) and game theory. The first applies the GRA to determine the Grey Relation Coefficient (GRC) factors that represent the network preference, and the network provider then selects the requested service that provide maximum payoff through Nash Equilibrium. Six requested services that have one application service among four different types of service classes were considered and the game was played repeatedly. In WiMAX, WLAN 1 and WLAN 2 game, the maximum payoff of each players was 93, 90.6 and 92.8 respectively. The experimental results show that every requested service can be selected by the network provider. Consequently, the proposed radio resource management mechanism is more effective in heterogeneous wireless networks.

  • This paper proposes a proactive authentication scheme using credentials based on chameleon hashing in MIH environments. There is a proactive authentication structure defined by IEEE 802.21 Security Study Group for the link access in MIH environment. Both schemes based on EAP and on PKI can be applied to such structure, but the former has caused network traffic due to the complicated authentication procedure and the latter has complex structure for managing certificates. The proposed scheme performs the proactive authentication procedure only between a mobile node and a MIH Key Holder by using credentials based on chameleon hashing. Our scheme reduces the network traffic since authentication with the server is unnecessary in MIH environment and PKI structure is not required as well. In addition, the proposed scheme provides secure PFS and PBS features owing to the authenticated Diffie-Hellman key exchange of the chameleon-based credential.
