A Study on Optimal Fast Handover Scheme in Fast Handover for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) Networks

چکیده
Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) is protocol for handling routing of IPv6 packets to mobile nodes that have moved away from their home network. However, in MIPv6, the handover process reveals numerous problems manifested by a time-consuming network layer based movement detection and latency in configuring a new care-of address, with confirmation scheme called duplicate address detection (DAD). To reduce the handover latency in standard MIPv6, the fast handover for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) protocol is proposed. To do this, each time a mobile node moves to a new location, it configures and confirms its temporal IP address during layer 2 handover. In this paper, we study the impact of the address configuration and confirmation procedure on the FMIPv6’s IP handover latency. A mathematical analysis comparing the various parameters is provided to show the benefits of our scheme over the current procedure like standard MIPv6 and FMIPv6.

Fast Location Opposite Update Scheme for Minimizing Handover Latency over Wireless/Mobile Networks
Mobile IP (Internet Protocol) allows a mobile node to send and receive packets with its home IP address, regardless of the IP address of its current point of attachment in the Internet. Since Mobile IP induces the handover latency due to mobility management operations, fast handover algorithms have been studied to reduce the latency. In this paper, we optimize the handover procedure in Fast Han...

In IP-based wireless/mobile networks, minimizing handover latency is one of the most important issues. Fast handover mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) reduces the handover latency by handover prediction with link-layer information. It requires additional overhead in terms of signaling and may waste resources by incorrect prediction. In this paper, we introduce a new non-predictive handover scheme which empl...

For improving the handover performance of mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) [1], two typical extensional schemes, hierarchical MIPv6 (HMIPv6) [2] and fast handover for MIPv6 (FMIPv6) [3], are being standardized in the Internet Engineering Task Force. Both FMIPv6 and HMIPv6 have so far been designed in their own ways so as to enhance MIPv6 in the signaling and handover aspects. HMIPv6 facilitates to reduce th...

A Fast Handover protocol (FMIPv6) in IETF working group is proposed to reduce the handover latency in Mobile IPv6 standard protocol. The FMIPv6 proposes some procedures for fast movement detection and fast binding update to minimize the handover latency. Additionally, to reduce the lost packets caused by a handover, this protocol introduces buffers in access routers. However, the handover laten...

Mobility support in the wireless network enables us to be served continuous service. Fast Handover for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) is proposed to support a faster handover than that of Mobile IPv6. Unfortunately, FMIPv6 shows too long handover latency to serve smooth video traffic flows. We proposed semi-soft FMIPv6 handover to minimize the handover latency to serve video traffic efficiently. The prop...
