This document describes how a Mobile IPv6 Fast Handover can be implemented on link layers conforming to the IEEE 802.16e suite of specifications. The proposed scheme tries to achieve seamless handover by exploiting the link-layer handover indicators and thereby synchronizing the IEEE 802.16e handover procedures with the Mobile IPv6 fast handover procedures efficiently.

Mobile nodes that change their connection point dynamically, are deployed in networks for communication with aircraft, boats, trains and cars. These mobile nodes move together and share the same mobility properties. This paper addresses an efficient location management scheme based on collaboration of mobile nodes to a mobile network. In our proposed scheme, we address the efficient location ma...

Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) is a protocol that enhances Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) with faster handovers. Neither HMIPv6 nor MIPv6 provides ways to authenticate roaming mobile nodes, although visited networks will need to check if mobile nodes can be authorized access. A solution is required before MIPv6 can be commonly deployed. Mechanisms to integrate Mobile IPv4 and the Diameter protocol for ...

In standard Mobile IPv6 networks multi-media streaming suffer from packet disruptions and packet loss resulting from high handover latency as well as available bandwidth fluctuation. To decrease high handover latency, Fast Handover for MIPv6 can be adopted where the client stores quickly sufficient amount of stream in advance. However, under the both conventional protocols which based host mobi...

Fast Handovers is an enhancement to the Mobile IPv6 protocol, currently specified in an IETF draft, which reduces the handover latency. This can be beneficial to real-time applications. This paper presents a novel implementation of Fast Handovers and an analysis of the handover. Using a real testbed we study the handover latency and the provided QoS: analyzing the OWD, IPDV and Packet Loss befo...

Mobility support in Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a de facto standard for allowing nodes to remain connected while moving around in the IPv6 networks. To provide better handoff latency and performance, numerous optimisation techniques were developed. Some of them are single-layer optimisation such as the Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 architecture, which aims at reducing the registration time...

Problem statement: Network Mobility as a service is provided by the NEMO protocol in IPv6 environments. NEMO is an extension to MIPv6 and thus inherits the same reliability problems of MIPv6. MIPv6 is not reliable because the Home Agent (HA) is a single point of failure. In order to provide real-time services for MIPv6 networks, reliability should be considered as part of any high availability ...

Efficient reliable multicast transport reducing the receiver processing overhead and allowing seamless continuation of the multicast service in case of handover is a challenge of today broadband infrastructures including content and mobile networks, The focus of this paper are protocol mechanisms aimed at scalable reliable point-to-multipoint content delivery from access routers to the attached...

As the demand for wireless mobile devices capable of executing real-time applications increases and as the number of mobility users grows, the Mobile IP has necessitated the development of better handoff techniques, for providing seamless handoff, namely, a packet lossless Quality of Service (QoS) guarantee. The Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6), is to enhance the Mobile IPv6, is designed to re...
