Abstract
Distributed mobility management (DMM) is an attractive approach to address the mobile traffic explosion problem, and thus it is perceived as a promising technology for mobility management in 5G. In this paper, we propose a software-defined networking (SDN) approach for DMM (denoted by SDN-DMM). Unlike the existing approaches for DMM (i.e., network-based or terminal-based), SDN-DMM implements the location and handover management functions at the centralized SDN controller while the packet forwarding function is fully distributed at access routers. Therefore, SDN-DMM can achieve the packet forwarding path optimization and provide significant benefits in terms of network and traffic management.
