Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), a Proposal for Seamless Handover Management at the Transport Layer in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks Universitat Politecnica` de Catalunya Department of Signal Theory and Communication Radio Communication Group Łukasz Budzisz Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), a proposal for seamless handover management at the transport layer in heterogeneous wireless networks. Barcelona, 2009 This dissertation investigates and evaluates the idea of handling mobility at the transport layer, using mobile Stream Control Transmission Protocol (mSCTP) as an example of a handover transport layer protocol. To this end, (the first part of) this thesis provides the reader with a necessary background for IP mobility-related aspects, surveying detailedly the most popular of the existing solutions. Provided overview includes Mobile IP (MIP) and its most important derivatives to represent the network- layer-based schemes, as well as Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) as an example of an application- layer approach. The details of the most important transport layer solutions are given on continua- tion, along with the motivation for the development of such mobility management schemes. Among presented transport-layer approaches, the one based on the mSCTP is chosen as a representative for the analysis performed in this dissertation. This choice is additionally motivated by two inter- esting features that SCTP protocol introduces, and that are interesting in the context of handover applications: multihoming and multistreaming (to some extent). (Still in the introductory part) a detailed state-of-the-art of the SCTP protocol is provided, stress- ing its signaling background and original scope of use that did not consider mobility related ap- plication. The described transition from the signaling to a general purpose transport protocol illus- trates the dynamics of the development of this relatively recent proposal, and explains why SCTP is currently one of the most interesting innovative transport protocols. The core of this dissertation outlines major mobility-related considerations in the context of fu- ture heterogeneous wireless networks, identifying all important handover scenarios, and specifying the most representative one to conduct the proposed analysis. Several transport-layer handover schemes based on SCTP are analyzed in the selected scenario. First of the discussed schemes, pro- vided also as a reference model for evaluations presented in the following sections of this work, reuses the standard SCTP failover, a mechanism originally devised to increase protocol robustness. Next, the details of transport-layer loadsharing are explained, to facilitate the introduction of the mSCTP-CMT-PF handover scheme, an essential improvement for transport layer mobility suggested by this work. The devised proposal incorporates one of the most popular loadsharing schemes pro- vided for SCTP, the Concurrent Multipath Transfer (CMT), that originally does not target wireless networks. Evaluation exposes the main challenges of such a design, pointing out the most important constraints limiting its scope of application. Finally, a quantitative comparison of all identified mSCTP-based handover schemes and two of the most representative network-layer solutions is given in a series of analysis that involves mobility models of different grade of complexity.

Fundamentally, these services utilize telemedicine technologies. A disconnection of a mobile telemedicine system usually results in an interruption, which is embarrassing, and reconnection is necessary during the communication session.

Packet Queues and Delay Analysis Queueing models offer qualitative insights into the performance of communication networks and quantitative estimations of average packet delay. In many networking instances, a single buffer forms a queue of packets. A single queue of packets is a notion of packet accumulation at a certain router or even at an entire network. In the context of data communication, a queuing buffer is a physical system that stores incoming packets, and a server can be viewed as a switch or a similar mechanism to process and route packets to the desired ports or destinations. A queueing system generally consists of a queueing buffer of various sizes and one or more identical servers. this chapter focuses on delay analysis of single queueing units and queueing networks, including feedback. The following topics are covered: Little's theorem Birth -and -death process Queueing disciplines Markovian FIFO queueing systems Non -Markovian and self -similar models Network of queues and delay models The chapter starts by analyzing two basic theorems: Little's theorem and birth-and-death processes. file://C:\Users\axioo\AppData\Local\Temp\~hh17A4.htm 30/09/2012 Part II: Advanced Concepts Page 2 of 247 Next, various scenarios of queueing disciplines are presented: finite versus infinite queueing capacity, one server versus several servers, and Markovian versus non-Markovian systems.

In such B3G environments, the mobility feature and multi-homing feature are inseparable. Both multi-homing and mobility have to cope with the same problem of multiple IP addresses. However the former works on multiple simultaneous IP addresses and the later works on dynamic IP addresses.

Recently, there is a large number of research contribution focused on Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP). Multi-homing is an important feature of SCTP which improves the com- munication performance by usage of multiple paths during association establishment, and it can bring significant improvements of throughput. In this thesis we evaluate the performance of SCTP and TCP traffic in the WLANs and we inves- tigate the SCTP multi-homing to improve the communication performance in WLANs.
