Nowadays, the importance of continuous connectivity of wireless network has increased because of increase in the number of applications in handheld devices. For offering continuous connectivity, seamless mobility management is very much necessary. Many mobility management schemes have been proposed. The techniques can broadly classified as, tunnel based scheme and routing based scheme. The tunnel based techniques has the advantage of limited route management packet transmission. But disadvantage is that besides source and destination addresses each of the data packets carry an extra header for routing. In case of routing based scheme, advantage is that the data packets do not carry any extra header for routing. But the disadvantage is that during handoff lots of route management packets are transmitted. As the mesh client speed increases, these problems further increase. Hybrid mobility management technique has been proposed in this paper for minimizing the problems of both tunnel based scheme and routing based scheme. It has been designed to handle highly mobile mesh clients. The proposed scheme routes internet packets using routing table entries. On the other hand, it uses tunneling to route the intranet packets to the destination. The hybrid scheme and some of the existing schemes have been analyzed and compared. Performance comparison shows that the hybrid scheme outperforms these techniques.

无线网状网络处理高移动性网状网络客户的混合移动性管理方案的设计和分析

如今，由于手持设备中应用程序数量的增加，无线网络连续连接的重要性日益提高。为了提供连续的连接，无缝移动管理非常必要。已经提出了许多移动性管理方案。这些技术可以大致分为基于隧道的方案和基于路由的方案。基于隧道的技术具有限制路由管理数据包传输的优势。但是缺点是，除了源地址和目标地址外，每个数据包还携带一个额外的报头用于路由。在基于路由的方案的情况下，优点是数据分组不携带任何额外的报头用于路由。但是缺点是在切换过程中会传输许多路由管理数据包。随着网状客户端速度的提高，这些问题进一步加剧。为了最小化基于隧道的方案和基于路由的方案的问题，本文提出了混合移动性管理技术。它旨在处理高度移动的网状客户端。所提出的方案使用路由表条目来路由互联网数据包。另一方面，它使用隧道将Intranet数据包路由到目标。已经对混合方案和一些现有方案进行了分析和比较。性能比较表明混合方案优于这些技术。所提出的方案使用路由表条目来路由互联网数据包。另一方面，它使用隧道将Intranet数据包路由到目标。对混合方案和一些现有方案进行了分析和比较。性能比较表明混合方案优于这些技术。所提出的方案使用路由表条目来路由互联网数据包。另一方面，它使用隧道将Intranet数据包路由到目标。对混合方案和一些现有方案进行了分析和比较。性能比较表明混合方案优于这些技术。
