Abstract

In this paper we suggest a classification scheme for IP mobility protocols and propose a framework for comparing them. We then use the framework to provide an initial comparison of previous proposals for supporting micro-mobility. The authors are part of project BRAIN (Broadband Radio Access for IP based Networks)-a European collaborative project under the IST (Information Societies Technology) programme. One aim of the project is to propose an open architecture for wireless broadband Internet access, concentrating on issues in the access network
