Experimental Performance Evaluation of Mobile IPv6 Handovers over Wireless LAN

Over the past several years there has been increasing the number of mobile devices. Mobile IPv6 enables mobile devices to communicate with each other while moving and has been implemented by several organizations. Though Mobile IPv6 implementations has been confirmed, the performance evaluation is one of the important next step to expect deployment in real environments. In this paper, we present experimental results on the performance of Mobile IPv6 handovers with the test parameters such as RTT, TCP and UDP throughput.
