  2. 4G Wireless: Future of VoIP Session Outline • Michael Ramalho (Cisco Systems): • Session introduction and facilitator • 4G Wireless Implies: • IP (and VoIP) to the mobile endpoint • Seamless handoff for real-time IP streams across heterogeneous (wireless) access technologies. • Mauricio Arango (Sun Microsystems): • Unique Aspects of 4G/Application Architecture/API efforts/ … Walled-garden vs. bazaar/Impact of wireless LANs on 4G • Phil Neumiller (3Com Corp, a.k.a. “Mobility Zealot at Large”): • Overcoming 3G & legacy cellular/Spectrum allocation madness/… 3G stuff to carry to 4G / 4G Network & technology opportunities • Dana Blair (Cisco Systems): • 4G: “The end of the Intelligent (services) Network” • Question and Answer Panel

  3. 4G Wireless: Future of VoIP Seamless Handoff Across Heterogeneous Networks • PRESENT – Seamless handoffs can be designed for homogeneous networks – usually with limited participation of the mobile node (MN) in the decision. • FUTURE – For IP to mobile node (MN) applications where there is a multiplicity of potential (wireless) access technologies: • What functionality is required in the MN and Access Router (AR) to facilitate seamless transfer (network or MN initiated)? • What QoS, AAA, Security infrastructure changes are needed? • CHALLENGE – How do we help facilitate the future vision during transition from 3G and legacy cellular? • ASSUMPTIONS: • Base IPv6 spec has fundamental mobile IP functionality • Multiplicity of (wireless) access technologies exist in a particular geography

  9. 4G VoIP Technology - Opportunities/Threats • A multiplicity of wireless access technologies exist in a particular geography • Handoffs of real-time IP streams are independent of access technology! • Corollary: Service provider is not “locked-in” to a particular access technology! • Off-load of expensive spectrum with lower costaccess technologies (802.11/unlicensed spectrum) • Business models that exploit 4G technologies yet to be derived (exploit statistical characteristics of mobility)

  10. 4G Wireless Status • Work begun in IETF in Seamoby andMobile IP Working Groups. • draft-blair-rt-mobileipv6-seamoby-00.txt • Many companies are working on architectures and prototype hardware to demonstrate feasibility and to determine seamlessness performance incross-technology handoff cases. • More opinionated people follow ……….
