“…The proposed scheme employed neighbor MAGs information and GPS aided to vehicles in order to predict the candidate MAGs. Additionally, a temporary binding between NMAG and LMA to accelerate the handover procedure for ePFMIPv6 has been proposed in [37]. However, the results showed that the scheme is appropriate for low speed only-not more than 50 km/h.…”

In vehicular communication networks, to facilitate the variety of intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications, handover management is considered as the one of the most challenging research issues. The most compatible and interoperable handover management solutions are designed based on IP mobility protocols. However, due to the unique characteristics of vehicles such as high velocity, IP mobility management protocols are still unacceptable for ITS real-time applications that are sensitive to network latencies. Thus, whenever the vehicle roams between two domains, which is most likely to occur in vehicular networks, its reachability status will be broken-down causing high handover latency and inevitable traffic loss. Recently, proxy mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) has been proposed to support the mobility management without any intervention of the mobile user in the mobility-related signaling. As PMIPv6 will be deployed in the wireless technologies for next generation networks (i.e., LTE/LTE-advanced, WiFi and WiMAX), vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) are expected to employ PMIPv6 protocol in vehicle to infrastructure connection as well. In this paper, we introduce a comprehensive review of the state of the art of PMIPv6 handover management in VANET. We present a new taxonomy and classify the existing schemes according to different considerations. Finally, we outline several open issues and handoff management design considerations as a direction for future research.

“…Then, the current AP exchanges parameters with the target AP and the mobile user to the start session between them. When the packets are delivered to the previous AP, it buffers them using a tunneling session [ 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ]. One of the most common tunneling protocols is MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS).…”

Current vehicular systems require real-time information to keep drivers safer and more secure on the road. In addition to the radio frequency (RF) based communication technologies, Visible Light Communication (VLC) has emerged as a complementary way to enable wireless access in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) with a simple design and low-cost deployment. However, integrating VLC in vehicular networks poses some fundamental challenges. In particular, the limited coverage range of the VLC access points and the high speed of vehicles create time-limited links that the existing handover procedures of VLC networks can not be accomplished timely. Therefore, this paper addresses the problem of designing a vehicular VLC network that supports high mobility users. We first modify the traditional VLC network topology to increase uplink reliability. Then, a low-latency handover scheme is proposed to enable mobility in a VLC network. Furthermore, we validate the functionality of the proposed VLC network design method by using system-level simulations of a vehicular tunnel scenario. The analysis and the results show that the proposed method provides a steady connection, where the vehicular node is available more than 99% of the time regardless of the number of vehicular nodes on this network. Additionally, the system is able to achieve a Frame-Error-Rate (FER) performance lower than 10−3.

“…Up to date, mobile IP has been intensively investigated [15−17] . To reduce delay, the Fast MIPv6 (FMIPv6) protocol [18] and the enhanced FMIPv6 [19,20] handle net-work layer handoff operations prior to the MN's attachment to the new MAG. Our previous work [21] used the Extended service set (ESS)-based architecture to implement PMIPv6 in WLAN, in which the entity MAG-AP was introduced to reduce handoff delay.…”
