The ITU Telecommunication Sta

9、ndardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA),

10、which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall withi

11、n ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommend

12、ation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “

13、must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party.

ITU-T Q.1707/Y.2804 (02/2008) Introduction This Recommendation describes a framework of mobility management (MM) for next generation networks (NGN). This work has been motivated from the observation that NGN continues to evolve toward

20、 the convergence of fixed and wireless/mobile networks, and thus the MM is an essential functionality to provide seamless mobility for the NGN users and services. This Recommendation is a part of the MM framework for NGN. The MM framework is designed with a couple of Recommendations, rather than a s

21、ingle Recommendation, as a suite of the framework of MM for NGN. This is because the design of the MM framework includes a variety of technical issues to be addressed. Furthermore, those design issues are associated with a wide variety of mobility scenarios and protocols. In this respect, the MM fra

22、mework for NGN is described with a family of the following Recommendations: Recommendation ITU-T Q.1707/Y.2804: Generic framework of mobility management for NGN; Recommendation ITU-T Q.1708/Y.2805: Framework of location management for NGN; and Recommendation ITU-T Q.1709/Y.2806: Framework of handove

ITU-T Q.1707/Y.2804 (02/2008) 1 Recommendation ITU-T Q.1707/Y.2804 Generic framework of mobility management for next generation networks 1 Scope The purpose of this Recommendation is to describe a generic framework of mobility management (MM) for next generation networks (NGN

24、s), which will include: Design issues common to both location management and handover control; Functional architecture for mobility management in the NGN perspective; High-level information flows for mobility management. It is noted that there are a variety of mobility types such as terminal mobilit

25、y, network mobility, services mobility, etc. This Recommendation focuses on the terminal mobility in the IP or higher layer among those MM types. MM schemes associated with a specific link-layer or lower-layer technology might be applied to the functions described in this Recommendation. However, th

26、e access-technology specific details are outside the scope of this Recommendation. This Recommendation describes a two-level architecture for MM functionality. For a scalability enhancement of MM in the NGN, the functional architecture can be extended to the architecture with more than two levels. T

27、his Recommendation also describes a high-level relationship between the MM control functions and the other functions defined in the NGN-FRA Release 1 so as to provide a guideline for further work on adding MM control functions to the NGN-FRA architecture. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendat

ITU-T Q.1707/Y.2804 (02/2008) 5 Design considerations 5.1 Network

42、environments The network environments in NGN can be illustrated as in Figure 5-1. As shown in the figure, the MM framework will be designed to support the mobility for NGN users across a wide variety of heterogeneous access networks. Figure 5-1 NGN environments From the NGN point of view, the MM fra

43、mework will be designed to provide a set of the signalling and control operations for MM. Those signalling and control operations will be performed among a variety of MM-related functional entities. In NGN, an operator may implement those MM-related functions in the core network (CN) and a variety o

44、f its access networks (ANs). With the help of the appropriate signalling operations for MM, an NGN user could benefit from the continuation of the services in the seamless manner, while it moves around the various access networks in NGN. 5.2 Design principles In this Recommendation, the MM framework

45、 will be designed with the following principles. 5.2.1 IP-based MM framework One of the major requirements for MM in NGN is that the MM schemes can operate over the IP-based networks, so as to support the mobility across a variety of heterogeneous access networks in NGN. The IP-based framework will

46、ensure that the MM functionality could be commonly applied to the various networks or systems, independently of the underlying link-layer access technologies. The IP-based MM framework will also facilitate that a variety of the well-defined existing IP-based protocols, such as AAA and DHCP, could be

47、 reused to support the MM. 5.2.2 Separation of MM control function from transport function It is noted that MM functionality can be viewed as the transport control function, rather than the transport function. MM control function will be designed as a self-contained scheme, not depending on the spec

48、ific data transport scheme. This feature will make it easier to implement and deploy the MM control functions to a variety of transport networks in NGN. Rec. ITU-T Q.1707/Y.2804 (02/2008) 5 5.2.3 Location management and handover control functions The MM framework is designed to provide the location

49、management (LM) functionality. For this purpose, the latest information of the location of a mobile user will be registered and updated, each time it continues to move around in the network. The MM framework is also designed to provide the handover control (HC) functionality. With the help of this HC function, a mobile UE can seamlessly continue the data communication during the session, even though it changes the associated IP address in the network. 5.2.4 Separation of user ID and location ID In the MM framework, user ID (a.k.
