UMTS/WLAN vertical handover problem

UMTS/WLAN verti cal handover support via two types of SCTP • single-homing asymmetric config uration •dual-homing symmetric configu ration

Inte grated UMTS/WLAN network architecture • tightly coupled solutions ： connect UMTS and WLAN• loose coupling solutions ： separate out UMTS and W

LAN• loose coupling offers several advantages over tight co

upling

Overview of Mobile SCTP (1)

Originally for VoIP of 3GPP Reliability Multi-homing

•established over multiple interfaces identified by multiple IP addresses

•An SCTP association between two hosts, say, A and B, is defined as •{[a set of IP addresses at A] + [Port-A]} + {[a set of IP addresses at B] + [Port-B]}.

Overview of Mobile SCTP (2)

base version of SCTP cannot be used directly to support UMTS/ WLAN vertical handover

Fortunately, the recently proposed DAR extension for SCTP enables the endpoints to add, delete, or change the IP addresses during an active SCTP association using address configuration (ASCONF) messages.• basis of mSCTP

VERTICAL HANDOVER PROCEDURES (1)

FS can also be configured for: •Single-homing: The FS provides only one IP

address to support handover.

•Dual-homing: The FS allows more than one (usually two) IP addresses to support

Handover procedure has three basic steps: •Add IP address

•Vertical handover triggering

•Delete IP address

IEEE 802.11 WIRELESS LAN ROAMING (1)

IEEE802.11 roaming structure is based on • AAA broker with a Remote Authentication Dial-In User

Service (RADIUS) server proxy

CA servers • are special servers that issue and verify certificates to

fixed nodes or net works upon request so that they have proofs to identify themselves

• are organized in a tree topology and working in a distributed way

IEEE 802.11 WIRELESS LAN ROAMING (2)

RADIUS PROXY

RADIUS server retrieves •remote server’s domain from the user’s r

equest •includes the network access identifier

•identifier@domain_name

IEEE 802.11 HORIZONTAL ROAMING (1)

Each network domain is interconnected by AAABs

In order to provide IP mobility • for eign agent (FA) is placed into the NAS

MOBILE IP HANDOFF PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT (1)

roam between a wireless LAN and a cellular network • routed to the mobile station through its HA

HA redi rects the data flow to the new IP address

For typical data applications is not necessary to use real-time seamless handoff

For real-time Internet applica tions like voice or streaming video ， handoff latency and packet loss performance have become more and more critical

MOBILE IP HANDOFF PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT (2)

In order to reduce the latency of Mobile IP handoff • used to assist Mobile IP handoff

• pre-registration and authentication data can be sent to the mobile station before it moves

• Additional flow control should be taken in the handover perio

WIRELESS TRANSMISSION PRIVACY (1) built-in WEP encryption cannot guaran te

e data transmission privacy User location updates are transparent to

the scheme since user mobility is handled in the network layer

FA just relays the authentication message between the mobile station and its home network

WIRELESS TRANSMISSION PRIVACY (2) Authenticating parties share a secret key

• stored in either the mobile station or its Subscriber Identity Mod ule (SIM) card

Authenticating parties do not share a secret key • authentication between two mobile stations or

a mobile station and a fixed Internet server Visit the Internet public resourc

• no authentica tion is needed

WIRELESS TRANSMISSION PRIVACY (3) Authentication and key negotiation proto

col between two mobile sta tions belonging

WIRELESS TRANSMISSION PRIVACY (4) Scheme variation in various authenticatio

n scenarios

SECURITY ANALYSIS (1) MS1 finds MS2’s home address and creates a nonce w

ith the corresponding hash value HA1 decrypts the message from MS1; HA1 realizes that

MS1 intends to authenticate with a third party CA decrypts the message from HA1 and verifies IDHA1 HA1 decrypts the message from CA, and gets the public

key and device ID of HA2. HA1 stores the pubHA2 and IDHA2 pair

HA2 will buffer the latter if the latter comes that must not be compromised

SECURITY ANALYSIS (2)

AUTHENTICATION AND KEY NEGOTIATION DEMONSTRATION demonstration uses RSA as the public key al

go rithm •DES as the symmetric algorithm •MD5 as one-way hash functions

If the slowest net work connection speed is 14.4 kb/s in the cellu lar network with overhead of the transmission considered •data transmission can be fin ished in less than 3 s

SUMMARY The proposed architecture offers a smooth tr

ansition of wireless LAN hot spots from non-roaming-supported to seamless-roam-ing-supported

A fast network switchover mechanism is available to improve the performance of stream ing applications

wireless transmis sion security is carefully considered
