Comparative analysis of IP-based mobility protocols and fast handover algorithms in IEEE 802.11 based WLANs

Abstract

A rapid growth of IP-based networks and services created the vast collection of resources and functionality available to users by means of an uniform method of access - an IP protocol. At the same time, advances in design of mobile electronic devices allowed them to reach utility level comparable to stationary, desktop computers, while still retaining their mobility advantage. Unfortunately, the base IP protocol does not perform very well in mobile environments, due to lack of handover support and higher layer mobility management mechanisms. In this paper we present an overview of the most popular and promising methods of handling mobility in IPv4 and IPv6 networks, covering both ISO-OSI layer 2 low level handover mechanisms in IEEE 802.11 WLAN systems and ISO-OSI layer 3+ mobility solutions.
