- FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a handover due to a deterioration in network quality.
- the network system configuration (the system shown in the figure is an example) is explained.
- HA 20 Correspondent's node (CN: Correspondent Node) 104, AR (access router) 31, 41 are connected to the IP network 101.
- An AR 31 and an access point (AP) 32 are connected to the wireless LAN 102, and an AR 41 and a wireless base station (BS) are connected to the mobile phone network (FOMA, etc.) 103.
- Base Station 4 2 connects.
- the mobile node 10 is connected between heterogeneous networks from the wireless LAN 102 to the mobile phone network 103. A handover shall be performed.
- the mobile node 10 communicates with the CN 104 via the IP network 101, the AR31, the wireless LAN 102, and the AP 32 using the network device 11-1 (NIC for wireless LAN). A packet is transmitted from 104 to the mobile node 10.
- NIC network device 11-1
- the mopile node 10 detects the deterioration of the network quality before disconnecting the network connection currently in communication, and the main interface Is changed to the network device 11-2 (NIC for mobile phone network), and the RS is transmitted from the NIC 11-2 to the AR 41 on the mobile phone network 103 with which communication is possible.
- the mobile node 10 Upon receiving the RA, the mobile node 10 generates a care-of address to be used in the mobile phone network 103, and selects the AR41 as a default router. Then, transmission of upstream packets from the route using NIC 11-1 is suppressed. After that, BU is sent to HA20 (care-of address is sent).
- the default router means that it is impossible to set in advance all routers, for example, routes to all hosts / networks on the Internet. Route).
- the HA 20 Upon receiving the BU from the mobile node 10, the HA 20 updates the database corresponding to the home address and the care-of address of the mobile node 10 (that is, updates the care-of address), and returns BA as a response. .
- the mopile node 10 also transmits a BU to the CN 104 that was communicating.
- the CN 104 transmits the packet to the mobile node 10 through the new routes, that is, the IP network 101, the A41, the mobile phone network 103, and the BS42.
- the NIC 11-1 maintains the connection state with the wireless LAN 102, so that the bucket reception is continued. Therefore, the CN 104 sends the packet to the mobile node 10 before receiving the BU. Even if a packet is transmitted via the wireless LAN 102, the packet can be received using the NIC 11-1. Therefore, handover can be performed without causing packet loss.
- FIG. 5 illustrates a handover due to network quality restoration. It is assumed that the network quality of the wireless LAN 102 has been restored when the mobile node 10 is communicating with the CN 104 via the mobile phone network 103 in the handover described above with reference to FIG.
- the mobile node 10 uses the NIC 11-2 to communicate with the CN 104 via the IP network 101, the AR41, the mobile phone network 103, and the BS 42, and a packet is transmitted from the CN 104 to the mobile node 10. Sent to.
- CS 223 NIC 11 When the network quality in one direction (wireless LAN 102) is restored, the mopile node 10 detects that, and changes the main interface from NIC 11-12 to NIC 11—1 and changes the wireless LAN 102 Send RS to AR 31 above.
- the mobile node 10 Upon receiving the RA, the mobile node 10 generates a care-of address to be used in the wireless LAN 102, and sets the route in the NIC 11-1 direction selected as the main interface as the default route. It also suppresses uplink bucket transmission from the route using NIC 11-2. After that, the BU notifies the HA 20 of the newly created care-of address.
- the HA 20 Upon receiving the BU, the HA 20 updates the database corresponding to the home address of the mobile node 10 and the care-of address, and returns BA as a response.
- CS 263 mobile node 10 also sends a BU to CN104 that was communicating. You.
- the CN 104 transmits the packet to the mobile node 10 through the new routes, the IP network 101, the AR 31, the wireless LAN 102, and the AP 32.
- the packet reception is continued, so that the NIC 104 receives the BU before the CN 104 receives the BU. Even when a packet is transmitted to the mobile node 10 via the mobile phone network 103, the packet can be received using the NIC 11-2. Therefore, handover can be performed without causing packet loss.
- the handover accompanying the restoration of the network quality here is based on the assumption that the priority of the network in the wireless LAN 102 is higher than that of the mobile phone network 103 and that the mobile phone network 103 Network was switched to wireless LAN 102, but in the case where the mobile phone network 103 and wireless LAN 102 have almost the same priority, the mobile phone network 103 If the network quality does not deteriorate, it is not always necessary to perform a handover to restore the network quality.
- the handover described above is for handover between a wireless LAN and a mobile phone network.
- a network to be switched due to a decrease in the radio signal strength of the wireless LAN is, for example, a wired network such as Ethernet (registered trademark). Network.
- the case of measuring the signal strength and the wireless band as the network quality has been shown.
- the establishment of the network connection triggers the detection of this network connection, and the connection to the wired network is detected. Handover processing can also be performed.
- the network quality monitoring unit 12 has a timer for quality monitoring, and the monitoring cycle can be rewritten from the application. In addition, quality monitoring is started at each cycle set in the timer. In addition, the network quality monitoring function is called when the network device for quality measurement receives a bucket, other than in the evening. A timer handler that operates when the timer expires activates this function for periodical monitoring, and a hardware interrupt handler activates monitoring when a bucket is received. In order to identify which process has been activated, the method by which the activation source handler sets an ID for identifying itself as a parameter at the time of activation of the network quality monitoring unit 12 is used.
- the monitoring process is not executed as described above.
- the timer for preventing excessive monitoring is checked, and then the signal strength monitoring unit 12a and radio band for all installed network devices 111-1-1-n are checked.
- the network quality is measured using the monitoring unit 12b.
- FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the operation of the network quality monitoring unit 12.
- step S3 13 It is determined whether or not the timer for excess prevention has expired. If the timer has expired (the time has expired), the process proceeds to step S32; otherwise, it ends. If the time is counted, the network quality is not measured.
- step S 3 2 Perform the corresponding processing from step S 32 a to step S 32 e for all implemented network devices 11-1 to 11-n for which network quality is to be measured.
- step S32a It is determined whether the device status is connection (whether the network device 11 is connected to the device). If it is connected, go to step S32b. If it is disconnected, go to step S33.
- step S32b It is determined whether or not the network status is connection (whether or not the network device 11 is currently communicating). If connection, go to step S32E. If disconnect, go to step S33.
- step S32d If the signal strength is normal, go to step S32e. If it is low, go to step S33.
- [S32e] Activate the processing of the wireless band monitoring unit 12b.
- [S33] It is determined whether there is a timeout call. If there is a call, the process returns to the start after the time set in the monitoring timer value. If not, the process proceeds to step S34 because the network quality measurement is started by receiving a bucket.
- FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an operation concept of the radio wave intensity monitoring unit 12a.
- the vertical axis is radio wave intensity
- the horizontal axis is time, showing the waveform of the received radio wave.
- the radio wave intensity monitoring unit 12a has two thresholds for judging whether the radio wave state is reduced or restored. One is a drop threshold (out-of-service threshold) for determining that the signal strength has decreased, and the other is a restoration threshold (service area threshold) for determining that the signal strength has been restored.
- the setting of these thresholds can be arbitrarily changed by operating the application 15.
- the measurement of the radio wave intensity shows that the measurement is performed in units of 200 ms.
- the radio wave intensity monitoring unit 12a reads out the radio wave intensity of the wireless channel under communication.
- To read the radio wave intensity for example, there is a method of inquiring about the radio wave condition using an interface with a wireless LAN card.
- a decrease in the radio wave intensity is detected when the read radio wave intensity is lower than the lowering threshold, in which case a handover is performed.
- handover is not performed in the case where the level falls below the threshold in a short time even if the level falls below the threshold, such as level L1. This is because if handover is performed in a state where the radio wave condition fluctuates near the drop threshold, the network switching will flutter, and stable connection control cannot be performed.
- handover is performed only after recognizing that the network quality is lowering.
- the handover is performed at the level L2 that is lower than the lowering threshold for about 600 ms.
- the signal strength monitoring unit 12a When detecting a drop in the signal strength, the signal strength monitoring unit 12a notifies the network state management unit 13a of the drop in the signal strength and sets its own signal state to reduced. No other quality monitoring (wireless band) will be performed because the signal strength has dropped. After that, if this function is started due to timeout, set the timer for the next start.
- the signal strength recovery is detected when the signal strength read out after the signal strength reduction is greater than the restoration threshold, and in that case, the handover is executed.
