Abstract

The Internet Protocol suite is emerging as the ubiquitous communication platform for almost every conceivable information exchange. Hence, a worldwide effort to support IP functionality over any existing link technology has started, including the booming wireless industry. DECT is a well-standardized wireless access network technology, supporting high bitrate digital communications. Moreover, IPv6, the emerging Internet Protocol version, extends support for mobility, QoS, wireless nodes and addressing issues. We propose a framework for mobility and QoS provisioning in IPv6 DECT networks. Mobile IPv6 is deployed, in conjunction with standard DECT mobility procedures to provide a suitable environment for Internet users on the move. Furthermore, RSVP is utilized to handle QoS signaling.
