Abstract-The Future Internet will provide seamless connectivity via heterogeneous networks. The Y-Comm Architecture is a reference model that has been developed to build future mobile systems for heterogeneous environments. However, the emergence of Software Defined Networking and Network Functional Virtualization will allow the implementation of advanced mobile architectures such as Y-Comm to be prototyped and explored in more detail. This paper proposes an implementation model for the Y-Comm architecture based on these mechanisms. A key component is the design of the Core Endpoint which connects various peripheral wireless networks to the core network. This paper also proposes the development of a Network Management Control Protocol which allows the management routines running in the Cloud to control the underlying networking infrastructure. The system being proposed is flexible and modular and will allow current and future wireless technologies to be seamlessly integrated into the overall system.

Mobile devices can exist in many forms. IEEE 802.11 and IEEE 802.16 create a heterogeneous network. Heterogeneity implies that some devices are more powerful than others, and some can be servers while others can only be clients. Typical IEEE 802.11 b/g/a is considered up to 54 Mbit/s.WiMax IEEE [802.16] has the specification of Medium Access Control (MAC) also Physical (PHY) layers. The results analyze the validity of broadcast and multicast in heterogeneous networks. The basic idea is to enhance the performance of multicasting and broadcasting in heterogeneous network. The evaluation is done through extensive simulations conducted in QualNet 6.1 simulator.

“…This is shown in Figure 10. Other network architectures for future mobile systems have been explored such as Ambient Networks [29] and Mobile Ethernet [30] but Y-Comm has been found to have a more open approach compared to these systems [31]. Y-Comm [32] therefore proposes two frameworks to represent this new reality.…”

The development and deployment of several wireless and cellular networks mean that users will demand to be always connected as they move around. Mobile nodes will therefore have several interfaces and connections will be seamlessly switched among available networks using vertical handover techniques. Proactive handover mechanisms can be combined with the deployment of a number of location-based systems that provide location information to a very high degree of accuracy in different contexts. Furthermore, this new environment will also allow contextual information such as user profiles as well as the availability of using location and contextual information to provide efficient handover mechanisms. Using location-based techniques, it is possible to demonstrate that the Time Before Vertical Handover as well as the Network Dwell Time can be accurately estimated. These techniques are dependent on accurately estimating the handover radius. This paper investigates how location and context awareness can be used to estimate the best handover radius. The paper also explores how such techniques may be integrated into the Y-Comm architecture which is being used to explore the development of future mobile networks. Finally, the paper highlights the use of ontological techniques as a mechanism for specifying and prototyping such systems.
