Mobility management has always been a challenging and important issue for the next-generation all-IP mobile networks. Seamless mobility is one of the requirements to provide real-time services in such networks. Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) has been developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as a network-based mobility management protocol to support the mobility of IP devices. Although several designs have been presented in the literature to reduce the amount of PMIPv6 signalling and latency handover, they do not satisfy the real-time application requirements. In this study, the authors first propose a novel vertical handover algorithm that helps to anticipate the handover process in an efficient manner. The suggested approach is based on PMIPv6 and IEEE 802.21 Media Independent Handover (MIH) standard. The authors also added a new MIH primitive in order to indicate that a handover is needed to be done very soon. The triggering of such process is done thanks to two proposed dynamic thresholds. According to the analytical evaluation and simulation results, the proposed method guarantees a significant reduction of the handover delay and the signalling overhead, handover blocking probability and packet loss.

“…These protocols have been used by communication networks to optimize the handover procedure, decrease overhead signaling, and realize layer 3 handover. Whilst, enhancements have been made in handover procedures, they still suffer from high rates of packet loss and long delay times [36]. Those protocols did not use layer 2 information to predict the direction of a moving target.…”

“…A proactive scheme was used by these protocols, which were created principally to cope with the handover delay time and data packet loss problems. By employing a predictive scheme, the network starts layer 2 handover over using the Received Signal Strength (RSS) of the moving target [36]. All of these protocols still have considerable problems in terms of long handover latency and high rates of data loss.…”

“…All of these protocols still have considerable problems in terms of long handover latency and high rates of data loss. Moreover, They were designed to manage the mobility of low speed moving targets up to a maximum 70 km/hr [36]. Designing of 5G-Crosshaul based on SDN and NFV have been presented by [37], with this study considering the principal parameters of application elements and their interactions with the control layer.…”

The Internet and mobile services provided by High-Speed Train (HST) communication networks are affected by high occurrences of interruptions due to high speed movement. Rapid connection and disconnection with the Access Points (APs) impacts the performance of quality of service to indoor train communication. To ensure a high data rate delivery and highly reliable connection to the Internet for end-users, we propose a novel method of handling packet flows in HST communication networks based on Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV). Our proposed combination of technologies is called Smart Virtualization (SV). The approach in this paper is based on making decisions to change the paths of packet flows between the APs, depending on the use of a triggering signal to initiate layer 2 handover. This packet path switching is controlled by an SDN controller. Our proposed approach operates by sending train information via a train head triggering signal for proactive registration in advance when the train enters an overlap area of AP signals. The suggested SDN network has been emulated and performed by using the Mininet simulator, and MATLAB platform. After extensive testing, the obtained results that were supported by the triggering signal has an efficient reduction in delay and packet loss than the obtained results without using triggering signal. The average control delay time was reduced by nearly 45% and the retrieved data were roughly 90% of packet loss when adopting the triggering signal system. HAMED S. AL-RAWESHIDY received the B.Eng.

A Comprehensive Review of Enhancements and Prospects of Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6 Protocol

2019

The emerging mobility management schemes for the fifth generation (5G) of mobile networks mostly follow the network-based protocol principles, which do not involve the mobile node (MN) in their operation. Such solutions have not been able to meet the ultra-low handover latency requirement in complex mobility scenarios in 5G. These objectives can be potentially achieved through increased involvement of MN in the handover operation, which can now be conveniently effectuated through virtualization technologies. In this regard, the classical host-based Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) protocol has the potential to offer several benefits due to its distinctive features, such as link-layer assistance for handover preparation, in-advance new care-of address formulation, and buffering services. Several enhancements to the FMIPv6 protocol have also been proposed, which improve its handover performance. Many of these enhancements focus on the baseline FMIPv6 specification, while others aim to enhance its operation by adding support features, such as mobile multicast, vertical handovers, quality of service assurance, as well as security support. Moreover, several enhancements to the access-technology-specific solutions for FMIPv6 have also been proposed. This paper aims to provide a systematic review of FMIPv6 enhancements in order to gain insight into its advantages as well as its shortcomings. Based on the review, this paper also discusses the evolution prospects of FMIPv6 toward 5G. Finally, some of its potential limitations along with possible research directions in the context of 5G are also indicated.
