Abstract
In this article, we analyzed a Handover Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) algorithm under conditions of 5G millimeter wave (mmWave) single and dual connectivity. A single connectivity enables handover between 5G base stations. Meanwhile, a dual connectivity is a handover occurred from a 4G base station to a 5G base station. In sending data, TCP has a congestion control algorithm that allows TCP to handle any congestion problems on the network. In this article, we analyzed the HMIPv6 performance using TCP YeAH and TCP CUBIC with various user equipment (UE) speeds. It showed that each TCP had a fairly stable delay and throughput under the condition of the single connectivity handover with an average delay of 192.8196 ms and average throughput of 52.8812 Mb/s. Whereas, in the dual connectivity handover condition, each TCP had a fluctuating delay and throughput directly proportional to the increasing UE speed. Therefore, TCP YeAH dominated the stability in dual connectivity with an average delay of 221.4226 ms and average throughput of 44.4004 Mb/s. Overall, this article found that TCP YeAH performed better than TCP CUBIC in both the single connectivity and dual connectivity handovers.
Highlights
M ILLIMETER wave is in the frequency spectrum between 30–300 GHz compared to those below 6 GHz currently used in radio waves [1]
Constant velocity model mobility with variant velocity was applied for the user equipment (UE), TCP was used as a transport protocol to send each data, while TCP CUBIC and TCP YeAH were used as the congestion control algorithms
These results showed that the delay and throughput proportions were inversely proportional to each other at the same UE speed
Summary
M ILLIMETER wave (mmWave) is in the frequency spectrum between 30–300 GHz compared to those below 6 GHz currently used in radio waves [1]. The wavelength is shorter than the current radio waves, which range from 1–10 mm, thereby, limiting the reach to only a few kilometers and more often encourages a handover process to maintain UE communication [2], [3]. Handover is the process of changing relations from the UE, which moves base station (BS) in such a way to ensure that it is effectively served by others. The BS with the best service is determined based on the received signal strength (RSS). This means that it can change associations based
