ITU-T Y.2809 (11/2011) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information
10、 and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide
11、 basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA R
12、esolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administrat
13、ion and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions
14、 are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ITU draws attention to the
15、 possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommendation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of

ITU-T Y.2809 (11/2011) Introduction This Recommendation describes the framework of mobility management (MM) in the service stratum for NGNs. This work has been motivated by the observation that MM is an
22、essential functionality to provide seamless mobility for NGN users and services. This Recommendation is a part of the MM framework for NGNs. Based on the generic framework of ITU-T Q.1707, the two Recommendations ITU-T Q.1708 and ITU-T Q.1709 have addressed the MM schemes in the NGN transport stratu
23、m, whereas this Recommendation deals with the MM schemes in the NGN service stratum. Rec. ITU-T Y.2809 (11/2011) 1 Recommendation ITU-T Y.2809 Framework of mobility management in the service stratum for next generation networks 1 Scope This Recommendation describes the framework of mobility manageme
24、nt (MM) in the service stratum for next generation networks (NGNs). This Recommendation addresses the issues on terminal mobility based on the IP multimedia subsystem (IMS). This Recommendation first identifies the functional architecture of MM in the NGN service stratum, and then specifies the proc
25、edural information flows for location management and handover control based on the identified functional architecture. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this Recommendation.

I
35、n the network, a user or a user equipment (UE) may change its IP address by movement and thus the user may experience service disruption and session discontinuity. This Recommendation deals with the MM schemes or protocols that can be used to provide seamless services and session continuity against
36、the movement of users. To provide seamless mobility, the link-layer information on the concerned access links might be used in the MM schemes, as shown in the IEEE 802.21 media independent handover (MIH). In this fashion, the so-called cross-layer optimization tasks may need Rec. ITU-T Y.2809 (11/20
37、11) 3 to be taken to provide seamless mobility. However, the details of a specific link-layer technology are outside the scope of this Recommendation. It is noted that the IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) platform can typically be used to support a variety of multimedia services. b-ITU-T F.700 gives a
38、generic model of multimedia service architecture. Multimedia services are built up by combining communication tasks and organizing their interaction. A communication task is considered as a functional entity of a multimedia service, which performs its communication features. Each communication task
39、handles a set of media components in a synchronized way, in order to convey and control information types such as audio or video. Media components are individual (mono-media) components, which handle functions related to each independent medium such as capture, coding and presentation. With regard t
40、o communication tasks, b-ITU-T F.700 mentions conversing, conferencing, distributing, sending, receiving and collecting. It shall be noted that this list of communication tasks can be extended by new tasks or by the refinement of given tasks. Audio, video, text, graphics and data are identified on t
41、he level of media components.

42、timedia services, communication tasks and media components. Communication tasks and media components will form the basic set of a specific multimedia service. For example, by the used media components, the multimedia conversational services can be further divided into: videophone service, with audio
43、 and moving pictures and optionally various types of data; voice and data services, with audio and various types of data; text telephony, with real time text, optionally combined with audio; total conversation service, with moving pictures, real time text and audio. In general, the MM schemes for mo
44、bility support in NGNs can be classified into the network layer MM (in the transport stratum) and the application layer MM (in the service stratum). The MM issues in the network layer or in the transport stratum are addressed in ITU-T Q.1708 and ITU-T Q.1709. This Recommendation focuses on the MM is
45、sues in the application layer or in the service stratum. In the application layer, the IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) platform will be considered and enhanced to provide seamless mobility. This Recommendation describes the framework of MM in the NGN service stratum. For this purpose, the MM functiona
46、l architecture based on the IMS platform is discussed, and the service control function (SCF) of the IMS will be investigated and further enhanced to support seamless mobility. Based on the functional architecture, the procedural information flows will be described for location management and handov
47、er control. 4 Rec. ITU-T Y.2809 (11/2011) 7 Functional architecture for MM in the service stratum 7.1 Generic architectural model The generic architectural model for MM in the service stratum is described in Figure 2, in which the MM functionality is provided via collaborative interactions between t
48、he functional entities (FEs) in the SCF and transport function (TF).

In addition, the handover control FE in the service stratum (S-HC-FE) is defined to support the handover of users in the service stratum. Such S-HC-FE
