Abstract :
We introduce an extended RSVP protocol called Mobile RSVP which support multimedia and real-time traffic in a Mobile IP based environment. Our proposed protocol is appropriate for those mobile nodes that can not a-prior determine their mobility behaviour. However, we have also analysed the effect of a deterministic mobility specification. We also describe the conceptual design of the reservation mechanism of Mobile RSVP and discuss the hand-over procedure. Efforts have been made to analyse the performance of Mobile RSVP and to assess its overhead and control traffic.
