Abstract(in English) The coming fourth generation mobile network is said to be an IP-based network to provide high speed communications to high-speed terminals. This paper presents an access network architecture for the fourth generation Mobile IP network taking advantages of PON(Passive Optical Network). FA(Foreign agent) situates in each centralized node where many OLTs(Optical Line Terminals) exist, and controls handoff in the area of 40km diameter. For the FA hand-off, an initial FA is anchored, and paths are extended to new FAs. In a FA, a virtual macro-cell is defined which consists of a group of neighboring micro-cells. In each virtual macro-cell, only a cell in which the target mobile node exists conducts IP-based wireless transmission to the target mobile node, though all micro-cells in the virtual macro-cell are ready to do it. The virtual macro-cell for a high-speed node is dynamically reallocated along the movement of the node. CDMA's soft handoff together with the dynamical virtual macro-cell allows continuous IP-based transportation even for a high-speed node.
