Analysis and Optimization of Mobile IPv6 Handoff Technology

Xi Yi Zhou, Yun Ke, Ge Zhang

Abstract

Mobile IPv6 solves the problem of node mobility though the protocol handoff process requires high cost and affects service quality. Currently, mobile IPv6 fast mobility and hierarchical mobility handoff technology enjoy wide applications, but there are still weaknesses. In view of the advantages and disadvantages of these two technologies, this paper puts forward a new fast hierarchical handoff scheme of mobile IPv6. Simulation results show that the handoff delay of fast hierarchical mobile IPv6 is shorter than that of fast mobile IPv6 and hierarchical mobile IPv6, which can reduce data packet drop-out and improve network performance.
