For the sake of Air Traffic Management modernization, civil aviation organizations are currently developing IPS for Aeronautical Safety Services in the new ATN/IPS infrastructure. This includes to define new airborne and ground-based communication systems capable of managing both air traffic services (ATS) and aeronautical operational communications (AOC) safety services. One of the main challenges in this new ATN/IPS network is the IPv6 mobility problem. This paper proposes a solution which takes both advantages of ground based Locator/Identifier Separation Protocol and Proxy Mobile IPv6 to manage all the aircraft mobility scenarios. A dedicated OMNeT++ simulation model is also provided and shows the performances of our solution.
