Abstract
The Mobile IPv6(MIPv6) has a well-known time gap of packet loss between link down and binding update. To minimize such packet loss, this paper proposes a MIPv6-based dual tunneling mechanism, which keeps exploiting the old tunnel while creating a new tunnel. Superiority of the proposed mechanism is evaluated by quantitative analysis on the lost packets and computer simulation, based on two overlay heterogeneous access networks, such as the UMTS and a WLAN.
