In order to apply a mobile IP protocol into current pervasive computing environment with satisfaction of user's mobility requirements, this paper evaluates and compares TCP performance on mobile IPv4 and mobile IPv6 protocols in mobile mesh networks for ubiquitous computing environments. Through comparative simulations, this paper shows that TCP performance on the MIPv6 protocol outperforms the performance on the MIPv4 protocol in terms of amount of dropped packets and lasting the connection with mobile node and corresponding node.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
