A Study on Mobile IPv6 Handover in Cognitive Radio Networks

Mobility is becoming a very significant theme in cognitive radio networks due to unlimited access to the network. As a result of using IPv4 protocol, there is a problem of data loss, if the user moves from one network to another. The 802.16e standard was developed for future supporting mobility and IPv6 protocol is mainly designed to support mobility and end-to-end security. So, we propose a protocol Ipv6 and integrating mobile TCP with 802.16e standard, which allows the users to roam over the network seamlessly and securely.
