With the rapid development of heterogeneous emerging wireless technologies and numerous types of mobile devices, the need to support robust mobile video streaming based on the seamless handover in Future Internet is growing. To support the seamless handover, several IP-based mobility management protocols such as Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6), fast handover for the MIPv6 (FMIPv6), Hierarchical MIPv6 (HMIPv6) and Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) were developed. However, MIPv6 depreciates the Quality-of-Service (QoS) and FMIPv6 is not robust for the video services in heterogeneous emerging wireless networks when the Mobile Node (MN) may move to another visited network in contrast with its anticipation. In Future Internet, the possibility of mobile video service failure is more increased because mobile users consisting of multiple wireless network interfaces (WNICs) can frequently change the access networks according to their mobility in heterogeneous wireless access networks such as 3Generation (3G), Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi), Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMax) and Bluetooth co-existed. And in this environment, seamless mobility is coupled according to user preferences, enabling mobile users to be "Always Best Connected" (ABC) so that Quality of Experience is optimised and maintained. Even though HMIPv6 and PMIPv6 are proposed for the location management, handover latency enhancement, they still have limit of local mobility region. In this paper, we propose a robust mobile video streaming in Heterogeneous Emerging Wireless Systems. In the proposed scheme, the MN selects the best-according to an appropriate metric-wireless technology for a robust video streaming service among all wireless technologies by reducing the handover latency and initiation time when handover may fail. Through performance evaluation, we show that our scheme provides more robust mechanism than other schemes.

신규 무선 네트워크 기술의 발전은 현재의 단일 네트워크 위주의 구성을 가진 무선 서비스 사업자에 새로운 다중 네트워크 (Heterogeneous Network) 환경을 맞이하게 하였다. 또한 무선 통신 사용자 수는 계속적인 증가추세에 있고 사용자들이 원하는 서비스의 종류 또한 계속적으로 다양해지고 있으며 사용자가 기대하는 서비스의 질과 수준 역시 높아지고 있다. 이에 무선 서비스 사업자들은 사용자들의 높아진 서비스 품질을 만족시키고 새로운 형태의 서비스를 안정적으로 공급하며, 현재의 네트워크와 신규 네트워크의 조화로운 운용을 위해 새로운 형태의 운용 구조 (Operation Framework)를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 네트워크간의 비용/효용에 대한 한계 비용 (Marginal Cost) 산정 기법을 도입하여 서비스에 따른 최적 네트워크 운용 기법에 대해 논술한다.

The spectrum scarcity crisis has resulted in a shortage of resources for many emerging wireless services, and research on dynamic spectrum management has been used to solve this problem. Game theory can allocate resources to users in an economic way through market competition. In this paper, we propose a bidding game-based spectrum allocation mechanism in cognitive radio network. In our framework, primary networks provide heterogeneous wireless service and different numbers of channels, while secondary users have diverse bandwidth demands for transmission. Considering the features of traffic and QoS demands, we design a weighted interference graph-based grouping algorithm to divide users into several groups and construct the non-interference user-set in the first step. In the second step, we propose the dynamic bidding game-based spectrum allocation strategy; we analyze both buyer's and seller's revenue and determine the best allocation strategy. We also prove that our mechanism can achieve balanced pricing schema in competition. Theoretical and simulation results show that our strategy provides a feasible solution to improve spectrum utilization, can maximize overall utility and guarantee users' individual rationality.

Wireless access technologies are emerging to enable high data rates for mobile users and novel applications that encompass both human and machine-type interactions. An essential approach to meet the rising demands on network capacity and offer high coverage for wireless users on upcoming fifth generation (5G) networks is heterogeneous networks (HetNets), which are generated by combining the installation of macro cells with a large number of densely distributed small cells Deployment in 5G architecture has several issues because to the rising complexity of network topology in 5G HetNets with many distinct base station types. Aside from the numerous benefits that dense small cell deployment delivers, it also introduces key mobility management issues such as frequent handover (HO), failures, delays and pingpong HO. This article investigates 5G HetNet mobility management in terms of radio resource control. This article also discusses the key challenges for 5G mobility management.

오늘날 무선 기술의 급속한 발전으로 인해 복수개의 액세스 인터페이스를 갖는 이동단말들이 나타나고 있다. 최근 WLAN이 근거리 통신을 위해 많은 가정과 기업에서 사용되고 있으며, WiMAX 또한 장거리 데이터 전달을 위한 무선 표준으로 부각되고 있다. 따라서 이기종 무선망간에 멀티미디어 데이터를 전달하기 위한 효율적인 접속 방안 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 WiMAX와 WLAN 인터페이스를 갖고 모바일 IP를 이용해 두 망사이를 이동할 수 있는 멀티홈드 노드의 시뮬레이션 모델과 환경을 개발하였다. 개발된 모델을 검증하기 위해 단방향/양방향 UDP 패킷, FTP 트래픽, SIP 프로토콜을 이용한 음성 전송 등과 같은 다양한 트래픽 환경하에서 여러가지 시뮬레이션 시나리오 즉, WiMAX와 WLAN 망간 이동, 그룹 이동성, MANET, 중첩 모바일 IP 등을 설계하고 구성하였으며, 시뮬레이션 결과를 분석함으로써 개발된 모델이 다양한 무선망 접속 시나리오에서의 이동성 연구에 효율적임을 보였다.

Recently, the applications of Internet of Things (IoTs) are growing rapidly. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) becomes an emerging technology to provide the low power wireless connectivity for IoTs. The IPv6 over low-power wireless personal area networks (6LoWPAN) has been proposed by IETF, which gives each WSN device an IPv6 address to connect with the Internet. The transmission congestion in IoTs could be a problem when a large numbers of sensors are deployed in the field. Therefore, it is important to consider whether the WSN devices have be completely integrated into the Internet with proper quality of service (QoS) requirements. The Software Defined Network (SDN) is a new architecture of network decoupling the data and control planes, and using the logical centralized control to manage the forwarding issues in large-scale networks. In this research, the SDN-based 6LoWPAN Border Router (6LBR) is proposed to integrate the transmission from WSNs to Internet. The proposed SDN-based 6LBR communicating between WSNs and the Internet will bring forward the requirements of end-to-end QoS with bandwidth guarantee. Based on our experimental results, we have observed that the selected 6LoWPAN traffic flows achieve lower packet loss rate in the Internet. Therefore, the 6LoWPAN traffic flows classified by SDN-based 6LBR can be reserved for the required bandwidth in the Internet to meet the QoS requirements.
