چکیده
MIPv6 is the IPv6 based mobility management protocol and it is expected to become the mobility management protocol of choice for the Next Generation Wireless Access Networks. In order to develop the understanding of the protocol’s behavior, its suitability for deploying in a wireless environment and in order to be able to propose and develop appropriate improvements and optimizations, it is imperative to have an accurate, reliable and scalable simulation model for the MIPv6 protocol which is fully compliant to the IETF standards and specifications. This paper presents the logic, design and performance results of an extensible MIPv6 (xMIPv6) simulation model integrated into the INET20061020 framework for the OMNeT++ discrete event simulator.

A comprehensive MIPv6 based mobility management simulation engine for the next generation network
Mobility management is one of the core requirements of the IPv6 based NGN to provide seamless handover services to mobile entities. In this regard, IETF has proposed protocols like Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6), Fast MIPv6 (FMIPv6) and Hierarchical MIPv6 (HMIPv6) to provide efficient mobility services. Due to the lack of deployment, there is not enough empirical data available to determine the efficacy o...
متن کاملOptimized Fast Handover using TBU Scheme for PMIPv6 Based Network Mobility
The Internet Engineering Task Force proposed a host-based mobility management protocol, called Mobile IPv6 for mobile nodes to maintain continuous service when they move to a foreign network but causes long disruptions during handover. Hence a new scheme is proposed based on PMIPv6 and EfNEMO to mitigate packet loss, signaling problem and handover latency. This scheme ensures that the MN mainta...
متن کاملuIP Support for the Network Simulation Cradle
We introduce the ongoing integration of Contiki’s uIP stack into the OMNeT++ port of the Network Simulation Cradle (NSC). The NSC utilizes code from real world stack implementations and allows for an accurate simulation and comparison of different TCP/IP stacks and a validation of thereby connected simulation models. uIP(v6) provides resourceconstrained devices with an RFC-compliant TCP/IP stac...
متن کاملPerformance Comparison of IPv6 Multihoming and Mobility Protocols
Multihoming and mobility protocols enable computing devices to stay always best connected (ABC) to the Internet. The focus of our study is on handover latency and rehoming time required by such protocols. We used simulations in OMNeT++ to study the performance of the following protocols that support multihoming, mobility or a combination thereof: Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6), Multiple Care-of Address Re...
متن کاملA Mobility Framework for OMNeT++
Communication networks are an important application area for OMNeT++. While fixed topology networks are relatively easy to implement with the available means, an easy to use and effective extension for mobile networks is still missing. We present a framework for OMNeT++ to support simulations of mobile networks. The framework is intended to be deployable ’as is’, without the need to adapt exist...
