Abstract

The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has recently standardized the IP-based aeronautical telecommunication network (ATN/IP) as a next generation communication network for the aviation industry. ATN/IP considers Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) as a basic mobility protocol which only provides host mobility. However, considering large number of hosts within an aircraft, there is a need for network mobility (NEMO). IETF has already specified a NEMO protocol that introduces a new entity called Mobile Router (MR) in order to perform mobility signalling for all Mobile Network Nodes (MNNs) connected to the MR. However, the base NEMO protocol does not support route optimization (RO), a feature which provides better end-to-end delay performance. Up to now, different RO methods are proposed for NEMO in IETF and in this paper, we consider Global Home Agent to Home Agent (Global HAHA) as a NEMO RO solution in aeronautical environment and propose a new home agent selection method in order to minimize end-to-end delay in this network.
