Abstract

From its origins in cellular communication systems, mobility management has experienced the network evolution of the Internet and the mobile Internet, and continues toward the future networks. Increasing numbers of mobility scenarios are bringing about new requirements, and thus new challenges, for mobility management. This chapter firstly analyzes the scenario-specific requirements, from which the methodology-related challenges are derived, and then the solution trends are introduced accordingly.
