3. 3 Introduction New cluster-based network architecture Mixture of two different types of network: Infrastructure (master-and-slave) Ad-hoc Slave Nodes (SN) are communicating via their respective Master Nodes (MNs) Base stations (MNs) are mobile (AODV routing) MNs act as a Home Agent (HA) and gateways for the cluster All nodes in a cluster typically move as a group If node changes cluster MIPv6 is deployed

5. 5 Introduction Traditional cluster-based networking has difficulties when the number of nodes increases routing complexity network management large overheads In the paper a simple cluster networking is proposed. There WLAN is utilized. The goal is to provide a wide-band access for multimedia communication (video).

7. 7 AODV AODV is used to manage routes between Master Nodes. Instead of AODV DSR could also have been used, but it was not further investigated in the paper. AODV discovers routes by means of route request (RREQ) and route reply (RREP). Each node will reply to RREQ if it is either destination node or an intermediate node. In the case on link breakage error message (RERR) will be sent back to the source.

8. 8 Mobility and handoff If SN moves to a new cluster mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) handoff is performed. SN will automatically configure link-local address and care-of-address (CoA) address based on the router advertisements. The home-agent is informed of the new CoA, so it can tunnel packets arriving to the home network (original cluster) to the new location. If SN receives a tunneled packet it should inform the source SN of the new location (route optimization).

9. 9 Mobility and handoff AP LAN WLAN LAN AP LAN WLAN LAN AP (MN1)(MN3) (MN4) (MN2) Router Advertisement by IPv6 ROUTER SN automatically configures care-of-address (CoA) address based on the router advertisements BU SN sends Binding Update to inform Master Node 1 about the movement. Binding Cache is updated. BUs should also be sent to Correspondent Nodes (CNs) of SN BACK Master Node1 (HA for SN1) replies with Binding Acknowledgement and tunnels the packets to SN1

10. 10 IPv6-in-IPv4 Tunneling IPv6 is used for operation in the infrastructure mode. The communication in the ad-hoc mode (between the master nodes) is based on IPv4 and AODV. If SN communicates with SN in another cluster, IPv6-in-IPv4 tunneling is used. Master node encapsulates the IPv6 packets received from SN and sends them to the master node of the destination cluster. The source address in IPv4 header is the address of the master node.

11. 11 IPv6-in-IPv4 tunneling AP LAN WLAN AP LAN WLAN (MN1) (MN3) WLAN LAN AP (MN2) Data packets MN1 encapsulates the IPv6 packets received from SN1 IPv6 SN1 Packets are sent to the master node of the destination cluster. The source address in IPv4 header is the address of the master node.

12. 12 IEEE 802.11 IEEE 802.11 supports direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) and frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) modes. The DSSS mode is preferred if the number of clusters if small. If the number of clusters is large, FHSS can be more suitable. FHSS can select 79 possible hopping sequences to avoid inteference. IEEE 802.11 is allowed several retransmission attempts (the number retransmission affects the performance)
