Abstract
For the successful deployment of Mobile Internet, fast handover technologies are essential. For the past few years several handover mechanisms are suggested, and Fast Handover for Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PFMIPv6) is one of the promising schemes for this purpose. In this paper, we propose a novel L2/L3 cross layer handover scheme based on ARIMA prediction model to apply PFMIPv6 to Mobile Internet environment effectively. Performance gains are evaluated in terms of probabilities of predictive-mode operation, handover latencies, packet loss probabilities, and signaling costs. Three mobilities models are used for our simulation: Manhattan Model, Open Area Model, and Freeway Model. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can increase probabilities of predictive-mode operation and reduce handover latency, packet loss probabilities, and signaling cost.
