“…They discuss that the header compression can improve the LTE performance while no implementation and measurements exist in work. In [15], the performance of IPv4 and IPv6 in LTE networks are compared through an experimental testbed. The round trip time of TCP connections to a web server is measured, which shows the connection time takes much longer for IPv6 than IPv4.…”

Full digital connectivity of the Internet of Things (IoT) devices demands several requirements including high-speed networks and a large number of IP addresses. The long term evolution (LTE) and very high throughput (VHT) 802.11ac networks are among the alternatives that can fulfill the speed requirements. To provide a large number of IP addresses, in addition to IPv4, LTE and 802.11ac also support IPv6. However, while the full digital connectivity cannot be fulfilled by IPv4 due to its limited address space and failure to support the scalability of the IoT applications, another major problem is that the potential benefits of IPv6 for LTE and 802.11ac mobile networks are completely ambiguous. The issue is further increased along with the design complexities inherent in LTE and 802.11ac infrastructures. Therefore, there are increasing concerns for cellular carriers and mobile service providers regarding migration to IPv6-only and whether the users in LTE-IPv6-only and 802.11ac-IPv6-only networks can achieve better performance than IPv4. To address the challenges associated with deploying IPv6-only in LTE and 802.11ac networks and quantify the performance, this work proposes a model. The model consists of a simulation environment with four distinct networks: LTE-IPv6-only, LTE-IPv4-only, 802.11ac-IPv6-only, and 802.11ac-IPv4-only. The model is further extended by setting up a real-world testbed environment to include four networks for replication of those simulations. To assure the most comprehensive environmental evaluation of the model, 128 distinct scenarios are developed and implemented, and the results are obtained in terms of quality of service parameters. The testbed results are compared to those of simulations to precisely assess the model. INDEX TERMS LTE, VHT, IPv6, QoS, Internet-of-Things (IoT).

“…The natural changes in availability of VPs and routing require us to eliminate the 1,095 prefixes in order to fairly compare the two techniques. We probe these 48,905 prefixes using CAIDA's "topology-on-demand" service [9], where we have implemented RSI+IPS using 59 globally distributed VPs. Table 1 summarizes our aggregate results.…”

Abstract. Among outstanding challenges to Internet-wide topology mapping using active probes is balancing efficiency, e.g. induced load and time, with coverage. Toward maximizing probe utility, we introduce Ingress Point Spreading (IPS). IPS utilizes ingress diversity discovered in prior rounds of probing to rank-order available vantage points such that future probes traverse all known paths into a target network. We implement and deploy IPS to probe ∼49k random prefixes drawn from the global BGP table using a distributed collection of vantage points. As compared to existing mapping systems, we discover 12% more unique vertices and 12% more edges using ∼50% fewer probes, in half the time.

“…Future work can examine the same dataset 12 to make stronger topological inferences. For instance, if two probes to contiguous /48s are topologically congruent, this could imply that the /48s are part of a larger routed aggregate.…”
