Abstract
The dynamic nature of future network environments, where a huge number of nodes of diverse types and equipped with a variety of access technology interfaces will be dynamically moved across heterogeneous networks, calls for an enhanced mobility function that facilitates multi-homing support. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze the lack of multi-homing support in the Proxy Mobile IPv6 specification that has become the standardized mobility management protocol in 3GPP (SAE/LTE) and WiMAX Forum (NWG), then propose an enhanced multi-homing support scheme based on multiple IPv6 address allocation to maintain application session continuity between two interfaces of a mobile node during an inter-technology handover. The proposed scheme is validated using QualNet simulator.
