  4. Observations • The ‘G’ in #G stands for Generation and typically refers to the generation of wide-area wireless network’s air interface • While the 4G air interface has not been standardized yet, a plethora of wireless standards are prevalent and will continue to co-exist • Dominant among these are CDMA2000, WCDMA, and 802.11-based systems • Today, each of these air interfaces has its own network architecture standards though the network provides similar functionality of mobility and location management • A unified network architecture based on IP that provides a common mobility and location management mechanism can serve as the 4G network of the future while different air interfaces simply plug into this network IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony

  5. Outline • Motivation • IP Mobility • Macro-mobility: Mobile IP • Micro-mobility: HAWAII • IP Paging • HA/FA paging • Domain paging • Interworking of Wireless LANs with 3G Networks IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony

  6. Motivation: Why IP? • Migration of wireless access networks to IP allows • Support for anticipated growth of the wireless Internet access • merging of services for wireline and wireless networks • merging of wireless voice and data networks • Reduced product and operational costs of IP infrastructure • availability of “commodity” hardware, software, and services • increased efficiency of packet-based networks for combining voice and data IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony

  7. Industry Directions for Wireless Networking • Cellular Telecom Approach • Efforts to define wireless data networking standard (General Packet Radio Service/GPRS, UMTS) begin before full impact of Internet explosion is felt • Internet-Based Approach • Use Internet standards for networking and mobility with extensions to inter-operate and support cellular air interfaces (e.g., GPRS, CDMA) 1st UMTS customers GPRS/UMTS standards begin FPLMTS standards begin 1998 1994 1992 1990 1995 2002 3M Internet Users 153M Internet Users IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony

  8. Clash of models • Telecom/cellular model Approach: Extend current wireless circuit-based infrastructure to support wireless internet data • Flexibility at the cost of complexity and efficiency (e.g. X.25 support in GPRS, PPP support in CDMA) • Rich functionality through experience (e.g., paging, micro-mobility) • Internet model Approach: Extend current internet data-based infrastructure to support wireless internet data • Simplicity using IP (support other protocols, e.g. X.25, through tunneling if necessary) • Missing functionality (e.g., paging, micro-mobility) IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony

  34. Why IP paging? As wireless access networks migrate to IP, IP paging allows • common infrastructure to support different wireless technologies • seamless merging of LAN/WAN • avoids duplication of paging protocols, resulting in cost savings • deployment of sophisticated paging algorithms • leverages the support of multicast, if available • user-customized paging areas IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony

  35. IP Paging Goals • Efficiency limit updates from mobile host when idle to conserve battery power • Scalability push paging initiation closer to base station • Reliability allow paging initiation to occur at any router/base station (no single point of failure) • Flexibility allow for fixed, hierarchical, or user-defined paging areas IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony

  41. Implementation • All three paging protocols implemented in FreeBSD • Paging protocol processing in user space, data forwarding in kernel space • Paging implementation does not affect fast path performance - use of virtual interfaces • Implementation used to measure processing load of different paging tasks - results to drive large scale simulation IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony

  44. Scalability (updates) • Large Paging Area size results in fewer updates but increases latency due to higher paging processing load • In FA/HA paging, updates can occur due to movement or when user is paged and found at new location • In Domain paging, updates are only due to movement - results in least number of updates IEEE NJ Coast Section seminar on Wireless LAN & IP Telephony
