Summary :

In mobile multimedia environment, it is very important to minimize handoff latency due to mobility. In terms of reducing handoff latency, Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) can be an efficient approach, which uses a mobility agent called Mobility Anchor Point (MAP) in order to localize registration process. However, MAP can be a single point of failure or performance bottleneck. In order to provide mobile users with satisfactory quality of service and fault-tolerant service, it is required to cope with the failure of mobility agents. In, we proposed Robust Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (RH-MIPv6), which is an enhanced HMIPv6 for fault-tolerant mobile services. In RH-MIPv6, an MN configures two regional CoA and registers them to two MAPs during binding update procedures. When a MAP fails, MNs serviced by the faulty MAP (i.e., primary MAP) can be served by a failure-free MAP (i.e., secondary MAP) by failure detection/recovery schemes in the case of the RH-MIPv6. In this paper, we investigate the comparative study of RH-MIPv6 and HMIPv6 under several performance factors such as MAP unavailability, MAP reliability, packet loss rate, and MAP blocking probability. To do this, we utilize a semi-Markov chain and a M/G/C/C queuing model. Numerical results indicate that RH-MIPv6 outperforms HMIPv6 for all performance factors, especially when failure rate is high.
