Abstract

Mobile IPv6 is a protocol that guarantees mobility of mobile node within the IPv6 environment. However current Mobile IPv6 supports simple the mobility of the mobile nodes and does not offer any special mechanism to reduce the handoff delay. For the purpose of reducing the handoff delay, Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 has been studied. However Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 supports the micro mobility only in the area managed by mobility anchor point. Therefore, the handoff delay problem still has been unsolved when mobile node moves to another mobility anchor point. In this paper, we propose GDMHA (Geographically Distributed Multiple HAs) mechanism to provide macro mobility between the mobility anchor points. Using this mechanism, a mobile node performs Binding Update with the nearest Home Agent, so that the delay of Binding Update process can be reduced. It also reduces the handoff delay.
