Mobility management of mobile nodes in the integrated network of infrastructure networks and wireless ad hoc networks is required to provide them with Internet connectivity. Tree topology has been proven to be highly dependable for mobility management where a mobile node registers with a gateway along tree paths. In this paper, we present an efficient tree-based mobility management method by building trees. The approach is evaluated against the other traditional methods - proactive, reactive, and hybrid by resorting to simulation. The results show that the new approach outperforms the other ones and also is very robust against the rapid change of topology.
