Abstract

We consider the mobility management in hierarchical multihop mobile wireless networks. We propose a mobility management solution that is the combination of macro mobility management using logical home agent (LHA) and micro mobility management integrating location management with routing and paging. The main advantage of our scheme is that it considerably reduces the location update overhead and especially cares for reliability and survivability.
