Description
Summary:Named Data networking(NDN) has emerged as a new communication paradigm designed for efficient dissemination of data. However, mobility issues are not considered sufficiently. Consumer or producer mobility can incur request staleness issue, the loss of Interest and Data packets and communication delay. Through analysis, we consider how to forward the buffered data from old access point(AP) to new one and how to keep routing consistency during handoff stage are two key points to address mobility issue in NDN. To minimize the loss of Interest and Data, handoff delay during moving, we design a mobility support architecture(MobiNDN), which is a centralized system architecture and consists of initialization and three stages:registration,deletion and updating. We design three mobility scenarios and schemes and evaluate the performance of MobiNDN by comparing it against exiting NDN using extensive ndnSIM simulation. Our simulation results clearly show that MobiNDN architecture effectively decreases handoff delay and receives data packets during/after handoffs comparing with the exiting NDN.
