ABSTRACT

The future network is forecast with the fact that the form where the various heterogeneous wireless networks. In this paper we build both IEEE 802.16e/WiBro and IEEE 802.11/WLAN network on the KAIST(Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) campus(1,270,000m2) as well as established the vertical handover system which supported WLAN in the building and WiBro outside the building. A Mobile IP is considered for the efficient vertical mobility function in IEEE 802.16/WiBro and IEEE 802.11/WLAN environment. However, during the deployment of WiBro, only some of the ACRs(Access Control Router) can support the Mobile IP function. Therefore, WiBro network can not support the mobility function for the mobile node. In this paper, we implement an overlay-based Mobile IP function and measure the performance through a field trial. Moreover, we evaluate the possibility of commercial deployment and suggest areas that need to be improved. The average handover time between WiBro and WLAN was 2.58 seconds. As a result, the user application session maintained but real time applications were delayed during the handover time.
