Title : Fast Handover for Mobile IPv6 Based IEEE802.16e Wireless Networks
Author(s) : P. Kim

This draft proposes a new fast handover mechanism for Mobile IPv6
based IEEE 802.16e wireless networks. To implement the proposed
mechanism, the IEEE 802.16e neighbor advertisement message, named
MOB_NBR-ADV, sent periodically by a serving base station (BS) is
assumed to be defined newly by adding a specific subfield to the
available reserved field. In addition, Router Information
Request/Reply messages used in the network layer are defined newly.
The proposed mechanism 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 mechanism 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 the current access router
(AR). Moreover, in the proposed mechanism, a mobile node can know
whether it changes AR or BS, which can remove redundant traffic
of the existing one.

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.
