ABSTRACT:
Wireless communication is the transfer of information over a distance without the use of electrical conductors or "wires". In this paper we discuss how Mobile IP works and the advantages of it in wireless communication.
In IP networks, routing is based on stationary IP addresses, similar to how a postal letter is delivered to the fixed address on the envelope. A device on a network is reachable through normal IP routing by the IP address it is assigned on the network.
The problem occurs when a device roams away from its home network and is no longer reachable using normal IP routing. This results in the active sessions of the device being terminated. Mobile IP was created to enable users to keep the same IP address while traveling to a different network (which may even be on a different wireless operator), thus ensuring that a roaming individual could continue
communication without sessions or connections being dropped.Because the mobility functions of Mobile IP are performed at the network layer rather than the Physical layer, the mobile device can span different types of wireless and wire line networks while maintaining connections and ongoing applications. Remote login, remote printing, and file transfers are some examples of applications where it is undesirable to interrupt communications while an individual roams across network boundaries. Also, certain network services, such as software licenses and access privileges, are based on IP addresses. Changing these IP addresses could compromise the network services.
