Mobile IP accounting

Methods and apparatus for updating accounting information for a mobile node operating according to Mobile IP Protocol are disclosed. A network device which supports Mobile IP composes a request packet for the mobile node. The request packet identifies the mobile node and includes at least one counter associated with accounting information pertaining to the mobile node. The request packet is then sent to a server adapted for performing accounting. The server then logs the accounting information for the mobile node. The server may then send a reply packet to the network device acknowledging logging of the accounting information pertaining to the mobile node. A bill for Mobile IP services may then be generated from the accounting information.

Micro-mobility network routing system and method

A micro-mobility network routing system and method implementing a protocol that extends the macro mobility support of Mobile IP to support micro mobility is disclosed which permits a more efficient and easily implemented Internet routing protocol for network devices to be affected. The macro mobility feature herein refers to the notion in which the mobile node gains access to the Internet, while retaining the same IP address. This concept is used only once when the mobile node enters the coverage area of a foreign domain (eventually its home domain). The concept of micro mobility within this context eases routing packets to the mobile node while its moves within the foreign network. The present invention implements these new features via the use of message compositions and protocol extensions that extend the prior art Mobile IP protocols.

Address translation equipment, terminal equipment and mobile communication method

A packet sent in a mobile IP communication between different regions passes through a particular address translation unit, so that the communication route cannot be optimized. The packet cannot be delivered to a mobile node not having a fixed home address. To overcome the difficulties, the address translation unit includes a function to process the mobile IPv6 protocol. The mobile node includes a function to dynamically acquire a home address. A first network and a second network each identify the mobile node by a SIP (session initiation protocol) identifier. The mobile node acquires a home address on the second network and registers a corresponding relation between the identifiers and the home address thereof. A terminal on the second network acquires the home address of the mobile node from information of the mobile node registered to the SIP server according to a SIP procedure.

Arrangement in a gateway for registering mobile routers of a mobile ad hoc network to respective home agents

A gateway, configured for providing connectivity between a wide area network and mobile routers within a mobile ad hoc network, is configured for registering the mobile routers with their respective home agents using a prescribed mobile IP protocol. The gateway identifies the mobile routers using a prescribed proactive mobile ad hoc network routing protocol. The gateway locates, for each identified mobile router, its corresponding home agent via the wide area network according to the prescribed mobile IP protocol, and registers the corresponding identified mobile router with the home agent according to the prescribed mobile IP protcol. The gateway can then forward a packet received from a home agent to the corresponding mobile router. Hence, the gateway provides mobile routers within a mobile ad hoc network with access to the wide area network, without any necessity for the prescribed mobile IP protocol to be implemented within the mobile routers.

Access context management for macro-level mobility management registration in an access network

In an access network which supports a mobile IP protocol, a packet data protocol context is opened at support node and a gateway node in order to establish a connection between a mobile node and a mobile IP foreign agent located at the gateway node. A mobile IP registration over the connection is initiated. The gateway node monitors whether the registration is successful or fails. The PDP context is deleted, if the registration irrecoverably fails. If the registration was unsuccessful but a retry could be successful, the PDP context may not deleted, but the registration is retried.

Resource utilization efficiency during hand-off in mobile communication systems

An improved method of maintaining data throughput during handoff in a wireless communication link operating with the Mobile IP protocol is described. A first base station initially servicing a mobile subscriber unit is associated with a first Mobile IP foreign agent that is registered with the Mobile IP home agent as a first mobility binding between the subscriber unit and the home agent. When the subscriber unit issues a request to be handed off from the first base station to a second base station, a second foreign agent associated with the second base station is registered with the home agent as a simultaneous binding with the first mobility binding between the subscriber unit and the home agent. This permits both foreign agents to simultaneously receive a sequence of data packets from the home agent. Before handoff is executed, the data packet sequence routed to the second foreign agent is stored at the second base station. After handoff is complete, such stored packets are forwarded to the subscriber unit starting with a predetermined numbered packet in the stored sequence, and the first foreign agent is de-registered with the home agent.

Method for realizing mobile node identity anonymity during mobile internet protocol (IP) registration

The invention discloses a method for realizing mobile node identity anonymity during mobile internet protocol (IP) registration, which mainly solves the problems of identity leakage and poor security of mobile nodes during registration in the prior art. The method has the following technical key points: a mobile node identity extension field is added into a registration request message to store atemporary identity identifier of the mobile node so that an attacker cannot wiretap the real identity of the mobile node; the temporary identity identifier of the mobile node, namely H (IDMN / / NHA), is constructed by performing hash operation on the real identity of the mobile node and the random number of a home agent, so that the attacker cannot deduce the real identity of the mobile node according to the wiretapped temporary identity identifier; and due to the randomness of the temporary identity identifier during registration at each time, the attacker cannot track the position movement ofthe mobile node, so the privacy of the mobile node is protected fully. The method can be used for identity anonymity during the roaming authentication of mobile subscribers of the mobile communication system of the next generation.

IP routing optimization in an access network

In an access network which supports a mobile IP protocol, a mobile station may perform several handovers between access nodes during a long session which may cause inefficient mobile IP routing. In the present invention, an access node, which is the target of a handover during an IP session, is arranged to check the preferred mobility agent in respect of the optimal routing on the mobile IP level, and if a more preferred mobility agent is available and not the same as a current mobility agent, the connection to the current mobility agent is closed, and a new connection to the preferred mobility agent of the respective access node is opened. In merit of the new connection established by the access node to the preferred mobility agent, the agent advertisement messages sent by the new mobility agent can be received by the mobile node, and thereby the mobile node is able to detect the change of the attachment point (i.e. mobility agent) and to initiate standard mobile IP registration.

A mobile IP location server comprises a mobile location protocol interface, an identifier resolver, and a location manager. The mobile location protocol interface interacts with location applications and receives and responds to location requests. The identifier resolver converts a device's public IP address to a real mobile identifier (e.g. MSISDN) and performs address conversion by either interacting with an HTTP proxy server or querying a network address translation (NAT) table. The location manager retrieves the location of a mobile device given the device's real mobile identifier (e.g. MSISDN). A web application requests mobile IP location services by transmitting an IP request to the mobile IP location server. An IP location request contains a mobile device's public IP address, port number, and any application specific information.
