Abstract

Mobility support for mobile networks becoming more important as the mobile Internet becomes popular. The IETF mobile Internet protocol version 6 (MIPv6) enables correspondent nodes (CNs) to send packets directly to a mobile node (MN) using care-of address of the mobile node. To reduce this control signaling, the existing hierarchical scheme built on top of the MIPv6 separates micro-mobility from macro-mobility and exploit mobile node´s locally. This paper describes video streaming QoS analysis on the HMIPv6 testbed. Throughput for MN during handoff has been analyzed and the conclusion shows that throughput is dropping during handover process.
