Users demand not only seamless continuation but also high throughput of Internet access as they hop across different administrative domains and heterogeneous networks during an ongoing session. By extending the multiple care-of addresses registration based on Mobile IPv6, the proposed mechanism may provide seamless access with soft handoff notion as well as high throughput with automatically selecting the best link among multiple interfaces when the wireless channel continuously changes. Moreover, our mechanism can fit for any access technologies because only layer three modification and techniques (like Packet Pair) are required. The simulation result shows the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional Mobile IPv6 in both seamless continuation and throughput. This study also provides a further insight on the issues of multiple interfaces and heterogeneous networks, which can promote the technology of next generation wireless network. Index Terms -Mobile IPv6, multiple care-of addresses registration, soft handoff, multi-rate wireless network.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
