GPMIP: A Proxy Mobile IPv6 Based Global Mobility Manaqement Architecture and Protocol

摘要

This paper specifies a Proxy Mobile IPv6 based global mobility management architecture and protocol procedure, named GPMIP. In GPMIP, the mobility management is performed by network entity other than mobile node itself. The benefit is the elimination of the wireless link data delivery tunnel overhead between the mobile node and the access router. To compare with well known Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 mobility management protocol, the location update, packet delivery, and total cost functions generated by a mobile node during its average domain residence time in each protocol are formulated based on fluid flow mobility model. Then, the impacts of various system parameters on the cost functions are analyzed, respectively. The analysis results indicate that the proposed Proxy Mobile IPv6 based global mobility management protocol can guarantee lower total costs.
