Minimizing Handoff Latency and Packet Loss in NEMO
This paper proposes a handoff scheme for Network Mobility (NEMO) to minimize the handoff delay and packet loss. This scheme is acronymed as MMHM (Multiple mobile router handoff management) scheme that addresses the handoff management in multihomed mobile network. In the proposed scheme, the effect of router discovery and Duplicate Address Detection (DAD) that have direct impact on the handoff procedure is eliminated. The cooperation of multiple mobile routers in carrying the traffic of one another during handoff process results in minimum packet loss. The mathematical modeling is carried out proves that the proposed scheme reveals better performance compared with the NEMO basic support protocol.
Keywords: NEMO, Handoff, Multihomed, Multiple Mobile Routers.
