A Pre-Setup-Path for Fast Handoff in Mobile IPLin, Bo-hao 07 September 2004 (has links)
With recent growth in mobile components and advances in wireless communication technology, mobile computing is an increasingly important area of research. Enabling mobility in IP networks becomes more and more significant. Mobile IP is the only current means for offering seamless roaming to mobile computers in the Internet. It has recently progressed along the ladder to standardization within the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). However, Mobile IP suffers from so-called triangular-routing problem and packet loss due to handoff. In this paper, we propose a new architecture to solve these two problems noted above. We assume that network routers such as Home Agent¡BForeign Agent¡BGeneral Router can equip our Pre-Accessing Engine (Mobile IP Engine) to access IP packets before IP routing Engine. With our Mobile IP table established in Mobile IP Engine, we can set up a transmission path for each correspondent node (CN) to transmit data to mobile node (MN). Therefore, we not only solve triangular-routing problem by direct transmission path, but also decrease handoff latency from path updating function. Furthermore, we use retransmission and flush schemes to avoid packet loss and out-of-order problems. Finally, we use simulation to prove our architecture is useful.
