Abstract

Network Mobility (NEMO) basic support protocol enables seamless mobility in vehicular networks. In this paper, we analyze the session handoff probability in NEMO-based vehicular environments. We develop analytical models for the session handoff probability. In particular, we derive the session handoff probabilities for riding and taking off users. Numerical results are given to illustrate the effects of the cell residence time, the numbers of road segments/intersections, the velocity, and the signal delay.
