Abstract

To make the most of the available data rates, coverage areas and different networks; wireless communication must be used . Vertical and Horizontal handover were explored in Wi-Fi, WiMAX and Ad-Hoc environments. The vertical handover between Wi-Fi and other wireless technologies could be achieved using Mobile IP and (ABC) CONCEPT. This paper is a comparative study between Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6 to find out which of them performs better when it comes to send datagram from the correspondent node to the mobile node. The tests were carried out to measure delay and throughput metrics and maintain session continuity of mobile node while roaming . The tests were done using OPNET Modeler and NS2 (Network Simulator 2). The results showed that Mobile IPv6 performed better than the other systems in all the tests done.
