–seamless mobility support –picocellular environment –address translation in Mobile IP –Mobile IP is not appropriate for seamless mobility: registration between MN and HA –paging, passive connectivity -> scalability –Mobile IP does not support the notion of seamless mobility, passive connectivity, or paging Related Work –Mobile IP is extended by arranging FAs in a hierarchy [6, 8] –Cellular IP employ per-mobile-host states hop-by-hop routing to achieve fast handoff control passive connectivity: reduce the search time and increase protocol scalability a layer three routing protocol

–Hawaii [5]: Hawaii nodes are IP routers the use of explicit signaling messages is limited in Cellular IP –minimizing service disruption during handoff –Cellular IP handoff aims at simplicity, eliminating the reliance on multicast and minimizing explicit signaling Protocol Overview –The Network Model For base station, IP routing is replaced by Cellular IP routing and location management. without tunneling or address conversion to minimize control messages, regular data packets transmitted by mobile hosts are used to refresh host location information: uplink and downlink

–Routing each base station maintains a routing cache mapping (X, BS3) at BS2 in Figure route-time-out, route-update packet and route-update time.

–Handoff: hard handoff and semisoft handoff –Hard Handoff handoff latency: the round-trip time between the mobile host and the crossover base station only a local node has to be notified rather than a possibly distant HA in the case of Mobile IP way to reduce packet loss: interaction between the old and new base stations during handoff

–Semisoft handoff the routing cache mapping associated with the new base station must be created before the actual handoff takes place. a constant delay along the new path between the crossover and new base stations –Paging paging-update, paging-update-time, paging-cache, paging- timeout

–Security impersonation and snooping attacks only control packets are authenticated Evaluation –Testbed FreeBSD 2.2.6, Windows and Linux Berkeley Packet Filter’s Packet Capture Library (PCAP) WaveLAN I, II a utility tool for manual handoff

Introduction Development of wireless technology and expansion of the Internet - Increasing demand on mobile and wireless data service - Internet Protocol (IP) was designed without consideration of mobility Mobile IP (RFC 2002) –Solve the macro mobility management –The mobile nodes can use the existing IP without session interruption while the devices are moving –It is less well suited for micro mobility management problem

Introduction (cont’d) Micro mobility protocols such as [2][5][8][15] have been proposed We focus on Cellular IP –Routing policy: All packets transmitted by mobile host should be delivered to the gateway –Communication between mobile hosts within same Cellular IP access network path duplication problem –We propose a direct routing scheme

Perkins, “IP Mobility Support” [11] –IETF RFC 2002 (1996) –Tunneling from HA to FA –registration request, registration replay  It is less well suited for “micro mobility” Micro mobility : frequent handoffs between small cells Handoff delay and service quality degradation R.

Cellular IP Routing Scheme CH HA FA BS MH BS Internet Cellular IP access network IP routing IP tunneling Cellular IP routing Base Station (BS)  Cellular IP node that has a wireless interface  Every node has route cache (location information about active nodes)  Some nodes have paging cache (location information about idle nodes) Gateway  Cellular IP node connected to a regular IP network  FA of Mobile IP  Cellular IP Access Network

Cellular IP Routing Scheme (cont’d) Cellular IP routing –Uplink routing : Routing from a mobile host to a gateway –Downlink routing : Routing from a gateway to a mobile host Uplink routing -All packets received from downlink neighbor used to manage a route cache and paging cache -After that, packet is forwarded to uplink Route cachePaging cache Refreshed by  data packet  route-update packet  data packet  paging-update packet  route-update packet Updated by  route-update packet  paging-update packet  route-update packet BS1 BS2BS3 MH1MH2 GW

Cellular IP Routing Scheme (cont’d) Downlink routing -Routing from a gateway to a mobile host Check route cache Entry? YES Forward the packet to downlink neighbor NO Does BS have a paging cache? YES NO Check paging cache Broadcast Check paging cache Entry? YES Forward to downlink neighbor NO Discard packet

Proposal of Direct Routing Scheme Routing policy of existing Cellular IP –All IP packets transmitted by a mobile host are routed from the BS to the gateway regardless of the destination address –Why? All IP packets are used to manage route cache or paging cache Limitations of existing Cellular IP –CASE : Communication between mobile hosts within same Cellular IP access network –PROBLEM  routing path duplication  Cutting off the routing path

Proposal of Direct Routing Scheme (Cont’d) Example Mobile IP enabled Internet GWAMNOP SRQ XY X:O Y:R X:S X:A Y:A SenderReceiver route cache Z X:N Y:N Z:Q data

Proposed Scheme –When a packet is received, a Cellular IP node checks its cache mapping  If the Cellular IP node finds the cache mapping for destination address of the packet 1.The data packet is forwarded to downlink neighbor directly 2.sends route-refresh packet or pseudo data packet to uplink neighbors If the Cellular IP node can’t find the cache mapping for destination address 1. The packet is forwarded to up-link neighbor Proposal of Direct Routing Scheme (Cont’d)

Proposal of Direct Routing Scheme (Cont’d) Direct routing scheme using pseudo data packet –If a BS forwards the packet to downlink neighbor directly, the BS sends pseudo data packet to uplink neighbor Mobile IP enabled Internet GWAMNOP SRQ XY X:O Y:R X:S X:A Y:A SenderReceiver routing cache data X:N Y:Q Y
