Abstract
Mobility management is classified into two parts such as location management and handoff management. The earlier one concentrates on location update whereas the later one manages continuous Internet connectivity while the Mobile Router (MR) changes its single point of attachment to the network. Therefore, frequent movement of the MR is one of the significant characteristics in Network Mobility (NEMO) environment. Because, in accordance with the standard Network Mobility Basic Support Protocol (NEMO BSP), the MR utilizes single Interface to attach to the access link. MR requires changing its Care of Address (CoA) when it moves among different wireless access networks. As a result, it can directly influence the performance of the mobility management protocols during inter technology handoff of multi-interfaced MR. This paper proposed a multi-interfaced fast handoff scheme in Proxy NEMO (PNEMO) environment. After that, it represents a comparative analysis between the proposed multi-interfaced scheme, NEMO BSP and the PNEMO scheme respectively. The performance disparities of these schemes are estimated and analyzed via both numerical and simulation approaches. The simulation is performed through NS-3 network simulator. The performance metrics estimated for evaluation are mainly handoff delay and packet loss. It has been perceived that, the proposed scheme performs better compared to the PNEMO scheme and NEMO BSP.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.eie.24.5.21848

This subsection illustrates the comparative numerical results of the proposed multi-interfaced scheme. It quantitatively compares the performance of proposed scheme with NEMO BSP and PNEMO with regard to the handoff delay as well as packet loss
Summary
Mobility management with providing a continuous Internet connectivity is one of the ultimate demanding research concerns in Network Mobility (NEMO) environments. In order to overcome these drawbacks of NEMO BSP, there have been some proposals linked to network-based schemes in NEMO manipulating the fast handoff feature on PMIPv6 in NEMO These schemes can provide better handoff performance, still required to survey the characteristics of each NEMO entities to provide seamless handoff during inter technology handoff (i.e. movement among different access networks). This is because; NEMO is concerned with the MR and MNNs. This is because; NEMO is concerned with the MR and MNNs These schemes still experience a higher handoff delay due to extra tunnelling burden that leads to a lower throughput during inter technology handoff [7]–[17].
