A method to improve network performance of Proxy Mobile IPv6
Yuta Watanabe, Yoshitaka Nakamura, Osamu Takahashi · 2015
PMIPv6 (Proxy Mobile IPv6) is one of techniques to realize network-based handover. However, PMIPv6 has a problem that it is necessary for all communication of the mobile terminals to pass through a proxy server. Therefore, the network performance is declined in applying the PMIPv6. To approach this issue, we propose a method to apply the OpenFlow technique to the PMIPv6 network. We make experiments to evaluate the communication performance of the proposed method comparing with existing methods. We show that the communication performance of the proposed method is higher than the existing methods.
