Abstract
Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) introduces a mobility anchor point (MAP) that localizes the signaling traffic and hence reduces the handoff latency. To support inter-area handovers, several methods have been proposed in the literature to address the challenging problems of minimizing the handoff signaling delay and call blocking probability for Hierarchical Mobile IP version 6 (HMIPV6). In this paper, we propose a new concept for inter area handovers to solve signaling delay and call blocking probability. In this concept, the border zone is made between two different neighboring cells. Each neighboring cells is assigned as MAP region. Since the border zone is an overlapping MAP region, MHs can maintain the same MAP as long as they remain inside the border zone.
