11. Mobility Management MIP provides a new IP address to a mobile node as it moves to a new network. 9 IETF Solutions: Upper Layer Protocols In MIPv4 the correspondent node (CN) sends packet to the MN through the MN’s HA – longer route. MIPv6 allows CN to send packets directly to the FA at the visited network – reduced delay. In L3 Handover the disruption due to long delays is minimized using Fast handover MIP (FMIP).

20. 14 What is Media Independent Handover ? Media Independent Handover Services is an IEEE (802.21) working on a specification that facilitates handover optimization between heterogeneous access networks by providing Link layer intelligence and Network information to upper layers Support for multiple access technologies (e.g., IEEE and non-IEEE access technology) Support for both network and device initiated handovers
21. Media Independent Event Service (MIES) Events may originate from MAC, PHY or MIH Function either at the mobile node or at the network. The source of these events may be either local or remote. Two types of Event Service Link Events and MIH Events. 15 MIH User (L3 and above) MIH Event s MIHF Link Event s Lower Layers (L2 and below)

33. Always best connected scenario: WiMAX/WiFi handover using the MIH framework. MobileNode Current WiMAX BS Candidate Wi-FI AP Candidate Wi-Fi AP MIIS MN becomes aware of new connectivity opportunities through beacons received from candidate APs. Alternatively, it can also periodically query the MIIS to gather information on available access networks. 1 MIH_Get_Information Request MIH_Get_Information Response MIH_N2N_HO_Candidate_Query Request MIH_N2N_HO_Query_Resource Request 2 MIH_N2N_HO_Query_Resource Request 3 MIH_N2N_HO_Query_Resource Response 24 MIH_N2N_HO_Candidate_Query Request
