@conference{2011Koester, author = "K{\"o}ster, Volker and Dorn, Dennis and Lewandowski, Andreas and Wietfeld, Christian", abstract = "Industrial applications of IEEE 802.15.4 networks require autonomous network reconfiguration and high mobility support. Therefore, dynamic meshing in case of node failures or changing environmental influences is needed as well as handover strategies when nodes change network domains. Recently a growing number of low rated, low power sensor nodes are deployed within Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) to support e.g. data acquisition and transmission. However, due to the sheer amount of application scenarios, standardization process did not address a potential coexistence of such nodes together with other standards or nodes classes (i.e. laptops) respectively. This results in a challenging parallel deployment of these technologies in networks that have evolved over time. Therefore, this work focuses on a mobility management to combine micro and macro mobility aspects in form of mobile ad hoc network (MANET) protocols and Mobile Internet Protocol Version 6 (MIPv6) without changing the original MIPv6 stack. In addition to that the application of 6LoWPAN is addressed to make efficient data transmission feasible within embedded devices by IPv6 header compression which increases resulting payloads significantly. Finally, our approach is validated within a real world industrial Simulation environment by combining the protocol simulator OMNeT++ with a ray tracing tool.", address = "San Francisco, CA, USA", booktitle = "74th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference", keywords = "MANET, MIPv6, macro mobililty, micro mobility, 6LoWPAN", month = "September", publisher = "IEEE", title = "{A} novel approach for combining {M}icro and {M}acro {M}obility in 6{L}o{WPAN} enabled {N}etworks", year = "2011", }
