A Mobility Architecture for Terrestrial and Space Networks
Fu, Shaojian / Atiquzzaman, Mohammed
Internet Protocol (IP) mobility can be handled at different layers of the protocol stack. In this book, a Seamless IP-diversity-based Generalized Mobility Architecture (SIGMA) is described. SIGMA works at the transport layer and utilizes IP diversity to achieve seamless handover, and is designed to solve many of the drawbacks of Mobile IP. The handover performance, signaling cost, and survivability issues of SIGMA are evaluated and compared wi...
