Abstract

Great interest in recent years has been devoted to mobile communications, as well as to Internet and IP based networks. The most promising protocol proposals for the handling of host mobility in IP networks are Mobile IP (MIP) and Route Optimization Mobile IP (ROMIP). The two schemes have been contrasted in the case of wireless mobile hosts linked by means of a wired backbone. The simulation results show that the performance in terms of packet delay and loss as well as the overhead of control traffic largely depend on the offered traffic pattern
