Connection rerouting strategy applicable to various connection-oriented mobile communication networks

To date, various connection rerouting methods for connection-oriented mobile network services have been proposed. The previous methods, however, are limited to specific topologies or environments. In this paper, we propose CI(Connection Information)-based rerouting widely applicable to various connection-oriented mobile networks. This method requires neither a specific topology nor a complex connection, guarantees fast rerouting, and takes a good trade-off between rerouting simplicity and route optimality. These features make the method adequate for general application to various connection-oriented mobile networks
