Abstract

Mobile IPv6(MIPv6) features have several defects such as overloading of nodes, loss of wireless signals, packet loss, movement problem and so forth. Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) got over the limit of MIPv6 problems. MIPv6 features have several defects such as overloading of nodes, loss of wireless signals, packet loss, movement problem and so forth. Research on PMIPv6, which features network-based mobility is actively in progress in order to resolve these issues. PMIPv6 is emerging as a new paradigm that can overcome the limitations of the existing MIPv6. Nevertheless, such PMIPv6 also incurs problems during hand-over. While it offers a solution to node-based problems, it does, too, create long delay times during hand-over. Since MN (Mobile Node) has been sensing its own movements on MIPv6, fast handover can be done easily. However it can't apply fast handover like MIPv6, as it can't apply fast handover like MIPv6 In this paper, the author solved hand-over problem on MIPv6. MAG knows location information of MN and if MN moves into other MAG's area, Location Server gives MN information to the MAG. Therefore, this mechanism makes hand-over process easier.

프록시 모바일 IPv6(Proxy Mobile IPv6, PMIPv6)는 모바일 IPv6(Mobile IPv6, MIPv6)의 한계점을 극복한 기술로서 현재 각종 연구기관에서 활발히 연구진행 중이다. 이는 모바일 IPv6의 이동단말에 Mobility를 위한 복잡한 표준기능을 추가하여야 하는 문제점을 해결하는 기술로서 차세대 네트워크 기술로도 인정된 바 있다. 하지만 프록시 모바일 IPv6에서도 핸드오버 시의 지연시간은 여전히 고려해야 될 대상으로 남았다. 모바일 IPv6는 이동단말이 직접 자신의 이동을 파악하여 미리 핸드오버 하는 방식의 적용이 가능하지만 프록시 모바일 IPv6는 적용이 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 프록시 모바일 IPv6에서 핸드오버 지연시간을 최소화하기 위하여 이동단말의 위치정보를 계산할 수 있는 위치서버를 두어서 미리 핸드오버를 할 수 있는 방안을 제안한다. 이를 통해 프록시 모바일 IPv6에서 핸드오버 지연시간을 최소화할 수 있고 대강의 단말의 위치정보를 파악할 수 있기 때문에 E911 동과 같은 응용 위치정보서비스에 활용이 가능하다.
