Abstract

The management techniques for Mobile IPv6 between different wireless technologies are very important to complete the handover process with the least possible delay. In the fast handover, when a mobile node moves to another network, it needs to do handover operations. These operations have a severe impact on the handover latency. This paper proposes an Enhanced Advanced Duplicate Address Detection (EA-DAD) method in a heterogeneous mobile environment with the support of the MIH services. The proposed method rapidly provides a unique Ipv6 address for MNs. At the same time, the binding updates to home agent and correspondent node are to be performed from old access router. We anticipate that the EA-DAD rapidly presents unique Ipv6 addresses for MNs with a minimum of handover latency as well as small buffering and packet loss even at high speed movements.
