Network-Initiated Terminal Mobility in Voice over 3GPP-WLAN
This paper proposes a network-initiated terminal mobility mechanism (NITM) to facilitate handover with the session initiation protocol (SIP) in 3GPP Voice over WLAN (3GPP VoWLAN). We design the E2E tunnel state model running on the packet data gateway (PDG) using the CAMEL concept, and introduce the mobility server (MS) as a SIP application server to re-establish sessions with third party call control (3PCC). The MS is triggered to provide the terminal mobility service from the PDG by detecting the state transition of the E2E tunnel state model that represents the occurrence of a handover. This mechanism can advance the time to re-establish sessions. That is, our approach can provide smaller handover delay than mobileinitiated terminal mobility; moreover, it can handle mobility without additional support from the mobile host (MH). In addition, the handover missing problem (messages lost) might happen when the MH moves under communication. With the help of the MS, the lost messages are ...
