  1. Core Network Technology Prof. Hamid Aghvami Centre for Telecommunications Research - King’s College London Wireless Multimedia Communications Ltd

  2. Outline of Presentation • Fixed IP-based Core Networks • Mobile Core Networks • IP-based IMT Network Platform( IP2 ) • Research Challenges • Inter-working Issues • Co-operation between UK and Japan

  3. IP-based Fixed Network • One of the priority policy areas of the government-led “e-Japan” • programme is the establishment of an ultra high-speed network • infrastructure. • It has set goals to provide 24-hour connection to high-speed Internet • access networks for at least 30 million households and ultra high-speed • Internet access networks (30-100 Mb/s) for 10 million households • within 5 years. • It has also set a deadline of 2005 for the deployment of IPv6 in all public • and private networks. • The government has lowered the tax on IPv6 equipment. • All IP equipment currently manufactured by Japanese manufacturers has • dual protocol stacks, both IPv4 and IPv6. • The R&D activities in IP-based networks are founded on the recent IETF • protocols and recommendations.

  7. IP-based IMT Network Platform IP-based IMT Network Platform ( IP2 ) main requirements: • Huge multimedia traffic handling. • Diversified radio access support. • Advanced mobility management. • Seamless/ubiquitous services

  8. IP-based IMT Network Platform Applications AP2 AP3 APn AP1 Middleware Service support sub-layer Location Accounting/billing Media conversion Distribution Basic network management sub-layer RRM MM C/SM Security QoS ISDN/ PSTN IP-based transport NW IP IP IP IP Internet Radio IP IP Radio IP Radio General architecture of the IP-based IMT network platform

  9. Research Challenges • Full integration and convergence of mobile and Internet networks. • - Common mobility management • - Efficient and dynamic re-routing within the Internet for moving terminals • Separation of location management and routing management • Design of middleware layer • - Separation of basic network control from transport • Interaction between service support sub-layer and applications and • between service support and basic network management sub-layers. • No separation between RAN and CN. • Common interface between radio resource management and other • network control entities

  10. Research Challenges “ The greatest challenge is not a technical one; it is how to influence the IETF to adopt the common protocols and functionalities required for IP2 . Radical changes to existing IETF protocols and the IP layer model will be required.”

  11. Inter-working Issues • The inter-working of WLAN and 3G cellular networks is fully recognised • and some study and research work have already been carried out. • Although the benefit of inter-working between broadcast and cellular • networks has been recognised, no research activities have yet been • announced or reported. • The use of WLAN equipment based on IEEE 802.11b is common in Japan • within private networks and it seems that IEEE 802.11a will follow it. • Recently, NTT Communications Corp. has launched its WLAN public • services.

  12. Co-operation between UK and Japan • Co-operation was proposed between UK and Japan in the areas of: • - Future network vision and its general requirements. • - Evolution scenario from IMT-2000 networks. • - Common global standardisation organisations and schedules. • Co-operation was also proposed between the IP2 Ad Hoc Study Group and • Mobile VCE.
