Abstract

The concept of Paging has been found useful in existing cellular networks for mobile users with low call-to-mobility ratio CMR. It is necessary for fast mobility users to minimize the signaling burden on the network. Reduced signaling, also, conserves scarce wireless resources and provides power savings at user terminals. However, Mobile IP MIP, a base protocol for IP mobility, does not support paging concept in its original form. Several paging schemes and micro-mobility protocols, centralized and distributed, have been proposed in literature to alleviate the inherent limitations of Mobile IP. In this paper, the authors propose three paging schemes for Distributed and Fixed Hierarchical Mobile IP DFHMIP and develop analytical models for them. Performance evaluations of these schemes have been carried out and results have been compared with DFHMIP without paging and with Dynamic Hierarchical Mobile IP DHMIP for low CMR values.
