This paper proposes mobility management schemes providing Internet session continuity to moving vehicles in the V2I (Vehicle-to-Infrastructure) environment of the vehicular communication networks. Since PMIPv6 is localized mobility management protocol, PMIPv6 can not be directly applied to the vehicular communication network requiring global mobility coverage. Therefore, in this paper, we derive two scenarios of applying PMIPv6 to vehicular communication network environment and propose PMIPv6-based global mobility management schemes for those scenarios. Through simulations, we show that the proposed schemes can significantly decrease the Internet service discontinuity.

The PMIPv6 protocol that has been recently presented as an alternative for the MIPV6 has been getting much persuasion by the system resource and the network bandwidth and the advancement of the network cost. we propose an effective scheduling for multicast services based on the PMIPv6 with hand-over mechanism. it provides an additional function that is able to change multicast join processes dynamically in accordance with MAG status. in order to evaluate the ability of the proposed scheme's We test the performance of hand-over and node join costs with similar techniques. The result of simulation shows improves about 13~35% of performance.

The rapid increase of mobile devices such as smart phone and smart pad have raised the needs for seamless multimedia services during moving at anytime and anywhere. Current 4G mobile devices are equipped with both 4G (LTE) and WLAN (WiFi) interfaces, and mobile services operators provide wireless Internet services using 4G network with a wider coverage and WiFi zone. Generally users prefer to use the Internet services through WLAN rather than LTE in the coverage of WLAN. However, since WLAN has a long L2 handover latency, it is difficult to support seamless services during a handover. In this paper, we proposed an efficient handover scheme based on flow mobility for WLANs to support a seamless service during handovers by using the overlaid 4G network with a wider coverage. Also, we showed the outperformance of the proposed scheme on a testbed.

At present wireless internet access service is available through the 3G network, mobile WiMAX and WiFi anytime and anywhere. In this environment where there are various networks, users should be able to select specific networks depending on different situations. And it is necessary to provide mobility support between homogeneous and between heterogenous networks. Given this situation, the many proposals have been presented to link 3G, which has the largest service area among various networks, with mobile WiMAX(IEEE 802.16e), or with WiFi(IEEE 802.11). But, recently, with the increasing volume of wireless internet use and wireless internet data, due to the advents of net-book, e-book and smart phone, the service area of WiFi and mobile WiMAX has rapidly expanded. Especially, the availability of real-time application such as internet phone has led to the relative shrinking of the proportion of 3G mobile communication network giving conventional voice service, and enlargement of those of wireless internet access networks like WiFi and mobile WiMAX. This paper suggests a handover scheme based on PMIPv6, whitch support mobility between WiFi and mobile WiMAX, and minimizes handover delay. In this scheme, the mobile node has a dual stack structure composed of two interfaces-WiFi and mobile WiMAX. Since WiFi dose not support mobility, it is suggested that the mobile node have the capacity to deal with handover signaling between gateway in case of handover between homogeneous networks. This handover scheme, suggested comparing with current handovers between homogeneous networks, has proved, in its analytic evaluation, to be able to reduce handover, transmission, and signaling overhead.

The PMIPv6 is a network controlled mobility management protocol in which mobile nodes never participate in IP mobility protocol signaling. One issue in using PMIPv6 for multicast service is that a new component should be added as the mobility management functions are located not on the device but on the network. Currently, standardization activities for providing muticast services with PMIPv6 have been actively in progress. This paper addresses some issues about the on-going standardization works for providing efficient real-time multicast services with PMIPv6, and proposes a scheme for minimizing hand over delays and packet losses by using a new neighbor cell reporting method. The proposed scheme has been verified to outperform the existing scheme in hand over delay and packet loss perfonnrmces by using computer simulations.

Proxy mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6), which is a centralized mobility management protocol, are dependent on a local mobility anchor (LMA) to process all control and data traffics. Therefore, it has serious problems such as the tremendous traffic concentration into the core network and the triangle routing. In this paper, therefore, in order to alleviate these drawbacks, we propose a PMIPv6-based enhanced distributed mobility management scheme considering a user's traffic locality. Performance evaluation results indicate that in most cases, except for when a user's mobility rate is relatively very higher than the traffic rate, the proposed scheme shows better performance result than that of PMIPv6. Besides, it is demonstrated that the proposed scheme can be an effective alternative that can distribute the significant loads on the LMA of the core networks to the MAGs of the edge networks.

The existing mobility management schemes do not fully support the next generation network, which is composed of IP-based core network and various access networks. Currently, ETRI has been developing the AIMS (Access Independent Mobility Service) system which satisfies the ITU-T requirements of mobility management in the next generation network. The AIMS system is designed to provide a mobile host with a fast and reliable mobility service among heterogeneous access networks. Recently, many user devices have multiple communication interfaces, e.g., 3G and WLAN, and thus they can make two or more network connections at the same time. In this paper, we design a scheme of flow mobility, i.e., the movement of selected data flows from one access technology to another, to be applied in the AIMS system, and verify the proposed scheme through the NS-3 simulation study. From the simulation results, we can know that the proposed flow mobility scheme can utilize the network resource efficiently in the heterogeneous mobile networks.

한 접속망 (Access Network) 내에서 이동 노드의 이동성을 지원하는 협역 이동성에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되었다. 최근, 이동 노드에 이동성 프로토콜 스택의 탑재 없이도 협역 이동성을 지원하는 연구 즉, 이동 노드에 투영한 협역 이동성 연구인 Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6)가 IETF NetLMM WG에서 표준화가 진행되고 있다. 현재 3GPP, WiMAX 등의 이동통신 표준화 단체들은 PMIPv6를 이동통신 접속망을 위한 표준 이동성으로 채택하고 있다. 즉, 이러한 차세대 이동망 구조를 채택하는 통신 사업자들은 PMIPv6의 이동성을 채택할 것이다. 따라서, 이러한 이동통신 사업자들간의 이동성인 로밍도 PMIPv6를 그 골간으로 하게 될 것이다. 향후 이동통신 시장은 다양한 이동통신 사업자들이 자유롭게 경쟁하는 구조를 가질 것이며, 이들간 로밍이 빈번하게 이루어질 것으로 예상된다. 하지만, 현재 PMIPv6간의 이동성인 로밍은 구체적인 표준화 과정이 진행되고 있지 않으며, 광역 이동성을 위한 MIPv6 채택을 고려하고 있다 즉, 로밍을 하기 위해서는 PMIPv6로의 이동임에도 탈구하고 이동 노드에 MIPv6 스택을 요구한다. 본 논문에서는 PMIPv6를 채택하는 이동 사업자들간의 이동성인 로밍의 경우 이동 노드에 특별한 이동성 프로토콜 스택을 탑재하지 않은 이동 노드에 투명한 로밍 방안을 제시한다.
