Abstract

In order to apply a mobile IP protocol into current pervasive computing environment with satisfaction of user´s mobility requirements, this paper evaluates and compares TCP performance on mobile IPv4 and mobile IPv6 protocols in mobile mesh networks for ubiquitous computing environments. Through comparative simulations, this paper shows that TCP performance on the MIPv6 protocol outperforms the performance on the MIPv4 protocol in terms of amount of dropped packets and lasting the connection with mobile node and corresponding node.
