“…In the light of existing networks and the history of networking, CBM-oriented ICC (CBM-ICC) [30,31,32,33] service is deemed as a key service and one of the most important developments towards the new UCWW environment. The definition of CBM-ICC service not only includes the traditional speech-oriented communications but also the multimedia communications like SMS, MMS, and video telephony.…”

“…According to [108] and [109], mobility management in IP-based networks can be broadly classified into personal mobility 29 , terminal mobility 30 and service mobility 31 . In this research, we mainly focus on terminal mobility.…”

“…To achieve this, the network is able to identify the end-users as they change the terminal. 30 Terminal mobility enables a terminal to access the network even with different location, while maintaining the ongoing communication across different networks. 31 Service mobility allows a user to use a set of services even when the user is moving while changing devices or network attachment points.…”

This thesis proposes a novel consumer-oriented Incoming Call Connection (ICC) service as an important enabling infrastructural component of the recently proposed ubiquitous consumer wireless world (UCWW), a new Consumer-centric Business Model (CBM) environment for wireless communications. The ICC solution proposed here will be offered by third-party providers who are autonomous of the access network providers. Compared to the present ICC service in the legacy subscriber-based networks, the consumeroriented ICC service will offer to mobile users greater flexibility and management control over incoming calls, enable users to receive incoming calls via multiple access networks/providers by means of a single identity, support user-driven, seamless, network-transparent Hot Access network Change (HAC), largely eliminate roaming charges and develop a new wireless networking business opportunity among other ben- Furthermore, the thesis elaborates a generic CBM-ICC service scenario, which shows how the CBM-ICC service offers to mobile users greater freedom and operation control over incoming calls, enables the novel attribute of users being empowered to receive incoming calls simultaneously, and otherwise, from various homogeneous and heterogeneous access networks, owned by the same or different providers, and enables user-driven HAC on active calls in keeping with, or matched to, user's Always Best Connected and Best Served (ABC&S) policies. A CBM-ICC proof-of-concept system-level testbed is implemented to perform experimental tests, probe different communications scenarios, evaluate the service performance, and further elaborate the service architecture. In this, approaches towards evaluating the performance of the CBM-ICC service based on designed testbed are elaborated, and sample numerical results are presented and analyzed.
