First, the authors described the basic principle of mobile IPv6 in brief and analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of it, presented a new idea of allocating a specific address space for mobile node (MN) and developed a new extension header and two ICMP message types for mobile IPv6. Lastly the authors proposed an optimization strategy for mobile IPv6 based on these extensions of protocol, which has the following advantages: 1) It is more convenient to manage the MNs because MN can be judged from its IP address; 2) When the correspondent node (CN) is not actively communicating with a MN, the MN and its home agent (HA) need not send Binding Update to the CN, and the CN need not send Binding Request to the MN. Only when the CN really wants to send a packet to the MN, will the CN voluntarily send a MN Discovery Request message to acquire the MN′s care of address. In this way,the transmission of Binding Update and Binding Request is greatly reduced, consequently the network overhead is also decreased; 3) While sending packets, the CN simply uses a MN Home Address Extension Header without using IPinIP encapsulation and routing header, which can reduce the redundant information in the packet and the message delay; 4) All the packets sent by the CN can be directly routed to the MN and the triangle routing can be completely avoided. By using these protocol extensions, the overhead of the network is greatly reduced and the network quality of services (QoS) is improved.展开更多

In mobile IP protocol, to find the exact location of mobile node for transferring incoming packets to them has a lot of signaling cost. So increasing the performance and decreasing the signaling cost are challenges of this protocol. Using the paging mechanism, its operation is in such a way that it can reduce Relocation update cost and save on power consumption in a mobile node. In addition, it can improve the performance of network by decreasing the need to register an idle mobile node. Mobile IP, currently does not support paging. Therefore, after introducing the mobile IP protocol and reporting related works, this paper will try to introduce a way to add paging support to the Mobile IP. Track paging is proposed to reduce the number of registration message of an idle mobile node to the mobile node’s home agent by waiving broad casting method and paging area size. Analytical results show that Track paging can significantly improve the total signaling cost of MIP vs. previous methods. Results also show that specifying the optimal paging area is critical in saving signaling cost of a MIP with paging support.展开更多

Furthermore, the functional relationship is also established in the paper among registration cost, hierarchical level number and the maximum handover time for gateway foreign agent regional registration. At last, the registration cost of the hierarchical mobile Internet protocol network is compared with that of the traditional mobile Internet protocol. Theoretic analysis and computer simulation results show that the hierarchical level number and the maximum handover times can both affect the registration cost importantly, when suitable values of which are chosen, the hierarchical network can significantly improve the registration performance compared with the traditional mobile IP.展开更多
