UMTS and WLAN Interoperability

Overview This paper studies different approaches to how interworking between the two network technologies Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) best can be achieved. The different approaches being discussed are the network layer mobility protocols Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6, the transport layer mobility protocol mSCTP and the application layer mobility protocol SIP. Conceptual and practical comparisons showed that in a here and now situation, mSCTP is considered the best approach for achieving interworking between UMTS and WLAN followed by SIP, Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6 in that order.
