| Abstract | Hierarchical Mobile 1Pv6 (HMIPv6) is the proposed potocol to improve the
performance of Mobile 1Pv6 by reducing packet loss and signaling traffic in the Internet.
Hierarchical Mobile 1Pv6 uses Mobility Anchor Point (MAP) as a central point to assist
with Mobile IP handoffs in MAP domain. Mobile 1Pv6 (MIPv6) can also reduce the
packet loss by sending Binding Update to its previous base station which is the location
of its previous Care-of Address.
In this thesis study, the performance of Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 has been
evaluated and compared to the performance of Mobile IPv6 both with (MIPv6f) and
without (MIPv6n) forwarding packet from previous Care-of Address mechanism. The
influence of the link delay, local movement probability and mobility rate are investigated.
The mobility rates in the range of 2 to 12 handoffs per second have been investigated. To
study the influence of mobility rate and local movement probability, three cases of link
delay values have been used.
The simulation results show that Hierarchical Mobile 1Pv6 can reduce the
outgoing signaling when Mobile Node has high local movement probability. Considering
throughput, HMIPv6 and MIPv6f perform the same as MIPv6n for small link delay.
HMIP and MIPv6f perform better than MIPv6n in high link delay network. If the mean
end-to-end delay is considered, MIPv6n has lowest end-to-end packet delay, but MIPv6n
has more packet loss than MIPv6f and HMIPv6. HMIPv6 performs better than the other
studied schemes when the local movement probability, mobility rate and link delay are
high. |
