Abstract

This paper is intended to contribute towards diverse solutions of developing current issues in WSN-IP mobility management. A survey of mobility protocols, proposed by the Internet Engineering Task Force, and their corresponding derivations are presented. These protocols are classified based on host-based, net-based and NEMO. A qualitative comparison of protocols, in terms of macro-mobility, micro-mobility and hand-off approaches is provided. As WSNs are resource constrained, network-based mobility management schemes are more efficient for this network, because the network-based mobility decreases handoff latency and transmission cost by avoiding the participation of all nodes in mobility process separately.

Keywords: Host-based mobility, Mobility Management, Net-based, Wireless Sensor Network-Internet Protocol (WSN-IP)
