Title : A Fast Handover Scheme for Mobile IPv6 Based Wireless Networks

This draft proposes a new fast handover scheme for Mobile IPv6 based
wireless networks. To implement the proposed scheme, the beacon
message used in L2 is defined newly by adding a specific subfield to
the capability information field. In addition, Router Information
Request/Reply messages used in L3 are defined newly. The proposed
scheme provides the faster acquisition of new access router's network
information than the existing one, which might be advantageous for
the low handover latency. In addition, the proposed scheme might
reduce amount of traffic in comparison with the existing one, which
might be remarkable when there are many mobile nodes that are now
connecting to current access router. Moreover, in the proposed
scheme, a mobile node can know whether it changes access router or
access point, which can remove redundant traffic of the existing one.

In the body type:

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
