Abstract

IPv6 mobility management is one of the most challenging research topics for an efficient support of global roaming of mobile nodes (MNs) in next-generation wireless networks. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has developed Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) and its proposed enhancements, i.e., Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) and Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) as host-based mobility management protocols. Recently IETF working group has standardized network-based mobility management protocols, such as, Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) and Fast Proxy Mobile IPv6 (FPMIPv6). Unlike host-based mobility management protocols PMIPv6 and FPMIPv6 have significant features and enable IP mobility for a host without requiring its participation in any mobility-related signaling. In this literature, host-based IPv6 mobility management protocols including the network-based PMIPv6 and FPMIPv6 are analyzed and compared. Each IPv6 mobility management protocol�s characteristics and performance indicators are identified by examining handover operations in terms of handover latency, handover blocking probability and packet loss. The conducted analysis in this literature can be used to facilitate decision making in development for a new mobility management protocol.
