Enhanced handoff latency reduction mechanism in layer 2 and layer 3 of mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) network

Next Generation Networks (NGN) both static and mobile are expected to be fully Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) based. Mobility in IPv6 (MIPv6) network was designed to provide Internet services to end users at anytime and anywhere. However, MIPv6 is not widely deployed yet due to handoff latency...

Mobility in IPv6 (MIPv6) network was designed to provide Internet services to end users at anytime and anywhere.
