摘要:
All nodes within a communication system (100) will create an IP address based on a shared-secret key. The shared-secret key is unique for every node within the communication system and is known only to the node (102) and a server (103). The router (101) can validate that the node (102) owns the IP address.

A method is provided for securing a PMIP tunnel between a serving gateway and a new access node through which an access terminal communicates. A PMIP key hierarchy unique to each access terminal is maintained by the gateway. The gateway uses a first node key to secure PMIP tunnels when authentication of the access terminal has been performed. A PMIP key is generated based on the first node key and the PMIP key is sent to the new access node to assist in establishing and securing a PMIP tunnel between the gateway and the new access node. Otherwise, when authentication of the access terminal has not been performed, the gateway generates a second node key and sends it to an intermediary network node which then generates and sends a PMIP key to the new access node. This second key is then used to secure the PMIP tunnel.

A method for using Internet mobility protocols with non Internet mobility protocols is described. A first gateway node communicates with a second gateway node using a first protocol. The first protocol is a non Internet mobility protocol. A home address (HoA) for a mobile node is managed by the second gateway node. Updates regarding the location of the mobile node within a domain are received using a second protocol. The second protocol is an Internet mobility protocol. Intra-domain mobility for the mobile node is managed by the second gateway node using the second protocol.

A method for implementing proxy mobile Internet protocol (PMIP) in mobile IP foreign agent care-of-address mode may include determining a home address of an access terminal. The method may also include communicating with a home agent in order to bind an address of the network node with the home address of the access terminal and establish a tunnel between the network node and the home agent. The method may also include receiving first packets destined for the access terminal from the home agent via the tunnel and sending the first packets to the access terminal. The method may also include receiving second packets sent by the access terminal that are destined for a correspondent node and sending the second packets to the home agent via the tunnel.

A method for enabling autonomous mode routing between mobile entities in a plurality of nested mobile networks includes the steps of: announcing (305) a root mobile entity address; in response to the announcing, receiving (310) a registration request comprising routing information from each mobile entity in at least a portion of a plurality of mobile entities comprising a plurality of nested mobile networks, wherein at least one of the registration requests is received while in an autonomous mode; and generating (315) a root mobile entity binding cache using the routing information from the registration requests, for enabling routing within the plurality of nested mobile networks.

A method and apparatus for facilitating handoff for a mobile entity in a wireless communication network is provided (100). The method comprising obtaining a first internet protocol (IP) address for the mobile entity (105) when the mobile entity is attached to a first access node, identifying at least one target access node (110), the target access node being a potential access node for handoff for the mobile entity, sending a trigger message corresponding to the mobile entity to the identified target access node (115) and acquiring a second IP addresses for the mobile entity at the target access node (120). The invention also proposes a method for creating a tunnel for facilitating the handoff for a mobile entity from the first access node to the target access node (205, 210, 215, 220).
摘要:
An Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) key, defining a first shared secret between a mobile node (108) and an AAA server (110), is acquired. A shared key becomes associated with the mobile node (108) and the VPN server (104). The shared key is formed, at least in part, from the AAA key. The shared key defines a second shared secret, which is between the mobile node (108) and the VPN server (104). A secure data tunnel is then established between the mobile node (108) and the VPN server (104) using the shared key.
摘要:
An authentication server may be adapted to (a) authenticate an authentication peer seeking to establish communications via a first network access node; (b) retrieve user profile information associated with the authentication peer; and/or (c) send the user profile information to a network gateway node that facilitates communication services for the authentication peer. A PMIP network node may be adapted to (a) provide wireless network connectivity to an authentication peer via a first network access node; (b) provide a PMIP key to both ends of a PMIP tunnel between the first network access node and a PMIP network node used to provide communications to the authentication peer; (c) provide the PMIP key to a first authenticator associated the first network access node; (d) receive a request at the PMIP network node from a requesting entity to reroute communications for the authentication peer; and/or (e) verify whether the requesting entity knows the PMIP key.
摘要:
A mobile platform efficiently processes sensor data, including image data, using distributed processing in which latency sensitive operations are performed on the mobile platform, while latency insensitive, but computationally intensive operations are performed on a remote server. The mobile platform acquires sensor data, such as image data, and determines whether there is a trigger event to transmit the sensor data to the server. The trigger event may be a change in the sensor data relative to previously acquired sensor data, e.g., a scene change in an image. When a change is present, the sensor data may be transmitted to the server for processing. The server processes the sensor data and returns information related to the sensor data, such as identification of an object in an image or a reference image or model. The mobile platform may then perform reference based tracking using the identified object or reference image or model.
摘要:
A system and method are provided that allow an application on a first terminal to inquire about available network communication associations that it can use to send data to another terminal, thereby avoiding the establishment of a new network communication association with the other terminal. A security information module may serve to collect and/or store information about available network communication associations between the first terminal and another terminal across different layers. The security information module may also assess a trust level for the network communication associations based on security mechanisms used to establish each association and/or past experience information reported for these network communication associations. Upon receiving a request for available network communication associations, the security information module provides this to the requesting application which can use it to establish communications with a corresponding application on the other terminal.
