Abstract Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) is a host‐based mobility support specification which has been
approved by the IETF as the standardized solution of global mobility management in IPv6 …

It is widely anticipated that beyond 3G network will be an IP-based integration of
heterogeneous wireless access technologies." Seamless mobility" in such network is much …

Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is designed not only to avoid tunneling overhead over the air
but also to manage the mobility of hosts that are not equipped with any mobility …

Performance evaluation shows that Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) cannot outperform
standard Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) in all scenarios. Thus, adaptive protocol selection under …

Terminal-based mobility protocols require mobile devices to participate in mobility signaling
that consumes lots of processing power and memory. Network-based mobility protocol, such …

This chapter provides a survey of IP layer mobility management protocols in next generation
wireless networks. In all-IP-based next generation wireless networks, mobile nodes freely …

Taking advantage of the multimode ability of modern mobile terminals, cellular operators are
investing in alternate access networks (eg, IEEE802. 11 and IEEE802. 16) to complement …

With the rapid growth in the number of mobile subscribers and mobile devices, the demand
high-speed Internet access is becoming a primary concern in our lives. Not long ago, the …
