Abstract
The functionalities of the next generation Internet protocol, IPv6, havebecome increasingly interesting due to the current merging of the traditionalcellular mobile communications and the traditional data-communications intothe future wireless systems, as e.g., UMTS. IPv6 provides several enhancedfunctionalities requested for the future mobile systems. In this article thelargest advantages in relation to mobile systems are presented. Variousaspects of introducing IP throughout the entire mobile network (core, accessand termainals) are also presented along with an illustration of the abilitiesof the future wireless network.
