Mobile IP provides an efficient and scalable mechanism for host mobility within the Internet. Using Mobile If, mobile nodes may change their point of attachment to the Internet without changing their If address. However, it would result in a high signaling cost. To reduce the signaling cost, we factor in the fact that mobile users will not be actively communicating much of the time. In fact, there Is no necessity to send a binding update message to the home agent when an mobile node does not communicates with others while moving. From this point of view, we propose a lazy update strategy for minimizing signaling cost using the forwarding pointer in hierarchical Mobile IPv6. In our proposal, binding updates are sent only when a mobile node is in a busy mode. If an mobile node is in a dormant mode, binding update messages are delayed until busy mode using the forwarding pointer. As a result, our proposal can reduce the total signaling cost by eliminating unnecessary binding update messages when a mobile node Is in a dormant mode. In addition to, our proposal reduces unnecessary location update cost resulting from ping-pong effect under mobile node's dormant mode. Analysis results using the discrete analytic model presented in this paper shows that our proposal can has superior performance than hierarchical Mobile nv6 when the call-to-mobility ratio is low and the length of the forwarding pointer chain K is low.

Mobile Wireless Sensor Network is an organized collection of sensor nodes and mobile sink nodes, in which the sensor node transmits the signal to the sink node. In real environment, there are many cases in which sinks have mobility caused by the people, the vehicle and etc. Since all nodes in the sensor networks have limited energy, many researches have been done in order to prolong the lifetime of the entire network. In this paper we propose Dynamic Local Update-based Routing Protocol(D-LURP) that prolong the lifetime of the entire network to efficiently maintain frequent location update of mobile sink static sensor nodes in Mobile WSNs. When the sink node moves out of the local broadcasting area the proposed D-LURP configures dynamically the local update area consisted of the new local broadcasting area and the previous dissemination node(DN) and find the path between the DN and the sink node, instead of processing a new discovering path like LURP. In this way the processing of broadcasting sink node's location information in the entire network will be omitted. and thus less energy will be consumpted. We compare the performances of the proposed scheme and existing Protocols.

In mobile ad hoc networks(MANETs), each node rebroadcast received route request packets for route discovery. Flooding from large number of nodes induces the broadcast storm problem which causes severe degradation in network performance due to redundant retransmission, collision and contention. This paper presents a node status algorithm based on probabilistic scheme to alleviate the broadcast storm problem for wireless ad hoc networks.

A lot of researches have been done on supporting QoS in the mobile networks and ad hoc network architectures, but most of them are not suitable in the static ad hoc environment. Most Research in mobile ad hoc networks has been devoted to routing protocol since they are fundamantal to the technology for improving QoS. In mobile ad hoc networks, QoS means not only fast speed and reliable transmission but reliable node. Needless to say, general QoS is serious question. In this paper, we enunciate the proposition to reduce network load and prevent node expire using buffer node.

MANET(Mobile Ad Hoc Network)이란 어떠한 기반 구조나 중앙의 관리없이 동적으로 임시 네트워크를 형성하는 무선 mobile node의 집합이다. 이 논문에서는 MANET에서 근원지 node가 목적지 node로의 route를 발견하기 위해 전체 네트워크를 대상으로 route request 패킷을 flooding 할 경우 결과적으로 네트워크의 성능을 저하시킨다는 점과 mobile node가 제한된 양의 power를 가지고 있다는 점에 초점을 맞추어 연구가 진행되었다. 다시 말해 이 논문에서 제안된 ZTPA 라우팅 프로토콜은 기존의 ZRP를 기본으로 서로 겹치지 않는 격자 모양의 zone으로 네트워크가 구성된다. 또한 proactive 라우팅이 이루어지는 IARP에서 route 설정시 현재 node에 남아있는 power를 고려한 CMMBCR 라우팅 프로토콜이 사용되며 이와 더불어 두 개의 임계치(SVSZ, FVSZ)를 사용함으로써 설정된 route의 수명을 연장하고 신뢰성 있는 데이터 전송이 가능하여 전체적인 네트워크의 성능 향상을 야기할 수 있다.

The localization service which provides the location information of mobile user, is one of important service provided by sensor network. Many methods to obtain the location information of mobile user have been proposed. However, these methods were developed for only one mobile user so that it is hard to extend for multiple mobile users. If multiple mobile users start the localization process concurrently, there could be interference of beacon or ultrasound that each mobile user transmits. In the paper, we propose LME, the localization technique for multiple mobile nodes in mobile wireless sensor networks. In LME, collision of localization between sensor nodes is prevented by forcing the mobile node to get the permission of localization from anchor nodes. For this, we use CTS packet type for localization initiation by mobile node and RTS packet type for localization grant by anchor node. NTS packet type is uevento reject localization by anchor node for interference avoidance.nghe experimental result shows that the number of interference between nodes are increased in proportion to the number of mobile nodes and LME provides efficient localization.

Given the increased interest in ubiquitous computing, wireless sensor network has been researched widely. The localization service which provides the location information of mobile user, is one of important service provided by sensor network. Many methods to obtain the location information of mobile user have been proposed. However, these methods were developed for only one mobile user so that it is hard to extend for multiple mobile users. If multiple mobile users start the localization process concurrently, there could be interference of beacon or ultrasound that each mobile user transmits. In the paper, we propose IAL, the localization technique with interference avoidance for multiple mobile nodes in mobile wireless sensor networks. In IAL, interference is prevented by forcing the mobile node to get the permission of localization from anchor nodes. For this, we define LIP packet type for localization initiation by mobile node and LGP packet type for localization grant by anchor node. LRP packet type is used to reject localization by anchor node for interference avoidance. The experimental result shows that the number of interference between nodes are increased in proportion to the number of mobile nodes and IAL provides efficient localization.

A Mobile Ad Hoc Network(MANET) is a multi hop wireless network with no prepared base stations or centralized administrations, where flocks of peer systems gather and compose a network. Each node operates as a normal end system in public networks. In addition to it, a MANET node is required to work as a router to forward traffic from a source or intermediate node to others. Each node operates as a normal end system in public networks, and further a MANET node work as a router to forward traffic from a source or intermediate node to the next node via routing path. Applications of MANET are extensively wide, such as battle field or any unwired place; however, these are exposed to critical problems related to network management, node's capability, and security because of frequent and dynamic changes in network topology, absence of centralized controls, restricted usage on network resources, and vulnerability oi mobile nodes which results from the special MANET's character, shared wireless media. These problems induce MANET to be weak from security attacks from eavesdropping to DoS. To guarantee secure authentication is the main part of security service In MANET because networks without secure authentication are exposed to exterior attacks. In this paper, a multistage authentication strategy based on CGSR is proposed to guarantee that only genuine and veritable nodes participate in communications. The proposed authentication model is composed of key manager, cluster head and common nodes. The cluster head is elected from secure nodes, and key manager is elected from cluster heads. The cluster head will verify other common nodes within its cluster range in MANET. Especially, ID of each node is used on communication, which allows digital signature and blocks non repudiation. For performance evaluation, attacks against node authentication are analyzed. Based on security parameters, strategies to resolve these attacks are drawn up.

The sensor network for the health care application service has the man or movable object as the main sensing object. In order to support inter-node interaction by the movement of such sensing objects, the node's dynamic function modification, dynamic self-configuration and energy efficiency must be considered. In this paper, the Agilla model which supports the dynamic function modification through the agent migration between nodes and LEACH protocol which guarantees the dynamic self-configuration and energy efficiency through the configuration of inter-node hierarchical cluster configuration are analyzed. Based on the results of the analysis, the Mobility Agent Middleware which supports the dynamic function modification between nodes is designed, and LEACH_Mobile protocol which guarantees the node nobility as the weakness of the existing LEACH protocol is suggested. Also, the routing module which supports the LEACH_Mobile protocol is designed and the interface for conjunction with Mobility Agent Middleware is designed. Then, it is definitely increase performance which un mobility node of transfer data rate through LEACH_Mobile protocol of simulation result.

In Mobile IP protocol, because a mobile node still uses its home IP address even though it moves to foreign network from home network, authentication among mobile node, foreign network and home network is critical issue. Many researches about this issue have been based on shared secret, for example mobile node and home agent authenticate each other with pre-shared symmetry key. And they missed several security issues such as replay attack. Although public key scheme could be applied to this issue easily, since the public key cryptography is computationally complicated, it still has the problem that it is not practical to realistic environment. In this paper, we describe several security issues in Mobile IP protocol. And we propose new Mobile IP authentication protocol that is applicable to realistic environment using public key algorithm based on certificate. It has scalability for mobile nodes and is applicable to the original Mobile IP protocol without any change. Finally we prove security of the proposed protocol and that it might not affect performance of the original Mobile IP protocol.
