Heterogeneous Wireless-Wired Sensor Network Communication Based on Mobile IP

Abstract

This paper proposes a communication scheme for heterogeneous wireless and wired sensor networks. In the scheme, through a common protocol to shield the differences of different types of wireless-wired networks, to realize the mobility management for heterogeneous wireless and wired network environment. In addition, access technology of the second layer can be shielded, and provided a unified interface for upper protocol layers. From the theoretical and simulative perspectives, the paper analyzes the performance parameters, including the mobile function, throughput capacity, energy consumption and network lifetime, and the analytical results show that the performance of the scheme is better than other mobility management scheme.
