Rapid IPv6 address autoconfiguration for heterogeneous mobile technologies

This paper proposes a novel IPv6 address autoconfiguration that works with multiple types of mobile networks, such as MANET, NEMO, MANEMO, as well as regular IPv6 networks. Our proposed algorithm assigns unique addresses to mobile devices without performing duplicate address detection. As a result, an address autoconfiguration can be done rapidly. This is suitable for system that requires dynamic movement and quick handover such as a disaster relief system or car-car communication.
