Abstract

Mobile IPv6 is a novel technology that supports mobile Internet communications. When a mobile node approaches another scalable domain, such as another ISP or mobile network company, serious problems occur such as registration delay and transmission latency owing to the binding update that the mobile node registers back to its original home agent. This work attempts to construct a scalable mobile IPv6 global network anycast by dynamically determining the nearest home agent to the current home agent for registration and transmission. This scheme is called Global Dynamic Home Agent Discovery (GDHAD). This investigation also performed and evaluated an anycast simulation to find how to obtain the best performance.
