Abstract: A handoff apparatus and method in FMIPv6 for seamless TCP packet transmissions. The handoff method includes steps of intercepting by a previous access router certain TCP packets sent from a correspondent node to a previous temporary address of a mobile node; and creating a TCP ACK by the previous access router in response to the certain TCP packets and sending by the previous access router the created TCP ACK to the correspondent node every time the certain TCP packets are forwarded to a new access router through a bi-directional tunnel. The handoff method has an advantage in that the packet transmission rate can be secured at the same level as the mobile node stays still during the performance of the handoff of the mobile node since the previous access router instead of the mobile node creates and sends the TCP ACK to the correspondent node during the performance of the handoff of the mobile node.

The method binds a network-based service flow through notification of a terminal by allowing the terminal to notify a mobile access gateway (MAG) of binding information of a desired service flow at a specific moment by allowing intervention of the terminal, and allowing the MAG to again notify a local mobility anchor (LMA) of corresponding service flow binding information.

Abstract: A control method for a mobile terminal which connects to a router linked to an external network through at least one interface, including receiving a router advertisement message from the router through a first interface, determining whether prefix information of the received router advertisement message is identical with prefix information of a preset internet protocol (IP) configuration reuse group including the first interface, and generating an IP configuration of the first interface when the two prefix information are identical. Accordingly, at the time of a vertical handover, continuity of the A/V session can be maintained without having to use mobile IP technology.

Abstract: A method of configuring and registering an Internet Protocol (IPv6) address in a wireless mobile communication system having a connection-oriented radio link is provided. In an IP configuration method without Duplicate Address Detection (DAD), a Mobile Station (MS) is allocated a unique Connection Identifier (CID) specific to the MS from a serving Base Station (BS), and the MS and BS configure the IPv6 address independently using a known network prefix, a Medium Access Control (MAC) address of the MS, and the allocated CID. The BS registers the configured IPv6 address to a HA on behalf of MS.

The handover method includes the step of gathering IP network information of a neighbor RAS through a message exchange with a previous RAS. A target RAS for handover based on the gathered IP network information of the neighbor RAS is determined, after the target RAS is determined, the previous RAS tunnels data for targeting the MS to the target RAS, Then the tunneled data are received from the target RAS.
