IP flow mobility scheme in scalable network-based mobility management architecture
Mobile nodes (MNs) have multiple interfaces for accessing heterogeneous networks. The multiple interfaces enable the MNs to access diverse networks simultaneously, and allocate or redirect data flows dynamically across the networks. In this paper, we introduce scalable network-based mobility management architecture and propose flow mobility management scheme for the multi-connectivity management in the multi-access and multi-homing context. They are simulated using NS-3 simulator. The proposed flow mobility management scheme is verified by a complicate scenario, which includes as many cases of flow handover as possible.
