mSCTP-DAC: Dynamic Address Configuration for mSCTP Handover
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a dynamic IP address configuration (DAC) scheme for mSCTP handover, which exploits the information from the link layer to support SCTP handover between heterogeneous access networks. The proposed DAC scheme enables a mobile terminal to automatically add a new IP address in the newly visited region, change the primary path, and delete the old IP address so as to support the mSCTP handover. For experimental analysis of mSCTP handover, we consider the handover scenarios for 3G-BWA and 3GWLAN over Linux platforms. From experimental results, it is shown that the throughput and handover latency of the mSCTP handover would be affected by the timing of primary-change and the overlapping period.

mSCTP for Vertical Handover Between Heterogeneous Networks
Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a new end-to-end transport protocol that is featured ‘multi-homing.’ The mSCTP (mobile SCTP) is defined as SCTP with the capability of dynamic address reconfiguration. This paper describes a framework of mSCTP handover for supporting vertical handover between heterogeneous IP networks such as WLAN and 3G Cellular systems. We show some experimental ...
متن کاملmSCTP Based Decentralized Mobility Framework
To conceive the full potential of wireless IP services, Mobile Nodes (MNs) must be able to roam seamlessly across different networks. Mobile Stream Control Transmission Protocol (mSCTP) is a transport layer solution, which unlike Mobile IP (MIP), provides seamless mobility with minimum delay and negligible packet loss. However, mSCTP fails to locate the current IP address of the mobile node whe...

Future wireless access networks will be heterogeneous wireless network (HWN) environment which consists of various wireless technologies including universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) networks and wireless local area networks (WLAN). They are used together through vertical handover (VHO) to ensure global mobility and service continuity. The mobile stream control transmission protoc...
متن کاملThe seamless vertical handover between (universal mobile telecommunications system) UMTS and (wireless local area network) WLAN by using hybrid scheme of Bi-mSCTP in Mobile IP
Nowadays many different types of networks communicate among themselves to form heterogeneous wireless networks (HWN). Seamless vertical handover (VHO) between a Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) and a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is necessary to provide continuous internet access for mobile node (MN) as roaming across these networks is to be without interruption. To suppor...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Primary Path Switching Scheme for Seamless mSCTP Handover
In this paper, a primary path switching scheme is proposed to provide a seamless handover for dual-homed mobile terminals. This scheme is proposed as an enhancement to the mSCTP protocol. With this scheme, a mobile terminal performs primary path switching before it becomes unavailable due to its primary path drop. The improvement achieved by the scheme is that it considers the temporal velocity...
