dc.description.abstractThis paper shows that mobility management protocols for infrastructure Internet may be used in a wireless mesh network environment. Mesh topology tends to be an unplanned graph and routes change dynamically and in this research Mobile IPv6 and Fast Handover for Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 are successfully implemented in a wireless mesh network environment. Horizontal handover simulation with ns2 involved Mobile IPv6 and Fast Handover for Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 applied to wireless mesh networks. Mobile IPv6 was used as a baseline to compare the performance of the two protocols. The results show that in mesh networks, Fast Handover for Hierarchical Mobile IPv6‘s performance is superior to Mobile IPv6. Fast Handover for Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 generates more throughput and less delay than Mobile IPv6. Furthermore, Fast Handover for Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 drops fewer data packets than Mobile IPv6. Even though MIPv6 and its extensions are for infrastructure networks, they can be used effectively in mesh networks.en_US
