“…Due to flow binding implementation, the MR operators can follow policies to redirect each flow among all network interfaces currently in use according to their service requirements such as cost, bandwidth, security or QoS. We therefore extends our previous WiFi only multi-homed testbed [24] to a WiFi, WiMax and UMTS co-exist multi-homed testbed. The research focuses on the transparent heterogeneous network mobility and it can give service providers an option to realise dynamic flow management across different platforms, alleviating the resource management difficulties.…”

We propose a dynamic mobility management framework for Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) and policy enforcement enabled heterogenous wireless networks. Policies and policy rules are defined depending on network infrastructure facilities, service agreements and negotiation results. Each traffic is coupled with an identifiable traffic flow while the heterogenous interface flow bindings are regulated by polices. The network selection, flow distribution, handovers and mobility procedures are flexible and we propose to improve the decision making via Multiple Attributes Decision Making (MADM). Techniques considered in the framework include the IPv6 based Network Mobility (NEMO), multihoming capability, transparent vertical handovers, horizontal handovers and dynamic policy enforcement matching process to improve the Quality of Service (QoS), Quality of Experience (QoE) and ubiquitous connectivity. A experiment testbed and simulation models have been constructed to verify the mobility framework performance in a heterogeneous WiFi, WiMax and UMTS hybrid environment.

“…Or simply, a host is considered multihomed if it has multiple IP addresses [20]. Wang et al [21] explain that multihoming support in a given protocol can follow different approaches. In the ownership approach, the entity owning the Home Agent (HA) and mobile routers, and providing Internet access to multihomed network elements plays a key role.…”
