Abstract

The success of next generation wireless networks will rely much on advanced mechanisms for seamless mobility support among emerging heterogeneous technologies. Currently, Mobile IPv4 is the most promising solution for mobility management in the Internet but it suffers from certain problems. Mobile IPv6 are designed for the next generation wireless networks and it overcomes the problems of MIPv4. The integration of mobile cellphones with Internet-based multimedia services will force a move to the next generation version of IP (IPv6). In order to apply Mobile IP in current internet environments, the TCP performance of MIPv4 and MIPv6 is evaluated and compared in this paper. Simulation results presented in this paper are based on ns 2.
