Abstract:

A distributed link-based IP paging method is proposed to enhance the scalability and flexibility of traditional IP paging. A semi-active state of mobile node (MN) is introduced in hierarchical mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) network. Then, a dynamic paging agent (PA) designation and paging link establishment approach is proposed, it would decrease the number of redundant IP paging messages and balance the network signaling traffic. Theoretical analysis for overall signaling load demonstrates that the link-based paging method with moderate paging link length could significantly reduce the paging signaling cost and improve the network performance.

Key words: IP paging, hierarchical mobile IPv6, location management
