Abstract :
In this paper, we evaluate a low latency handoff protocol for MIPv4, the post-registration handoff method. This mechanism proposed by the IETF tries to improve the performance of hierarchical mobile IP by decreasing the handoff latency. We give a detailed description of the protocol behavior by means of an ns simulation and propose a simple queuing model to study the influence of various parameters on the protocol performance.
