Enhanced Novel Architecture of Proxy‐LMA Mobility Management Scheme for Software‐Based Smart Factory Networking

Abstract

Smart Factory (SF) needs communication between manufacturing area and factory floor and connectivity with IT office simultaneously. in such case, a scenario of heterogeneous network may occur. in available literature, different type of architectures and technologies are proposed such as Proxy LMA, an internet protocol-based global internetworking (IW) system that, improves the mobility of a smart factory (SF) network environment. Due to the implementation of different wireless technologies, the problem of managing mobility in next-generation wireless Smart Factory networking is created. Additionally, the Mobile User (MU) requires a seamless service, when it moves through heterogeneous networks. Here comes the issue when the MN want to connect to another network domain. The MN wait until the handover registration procedure is completed, and during hand over the packet loss is occurred. To overcome this issue, we Proposed a scheme to minimize the handover delay and packet loss during handover process. Using our Proposed scheme when the Mobile Node find the new MAG signal it sends the report message to its serving or P-MAG. The P-MAG send the handover initiation message to New-MAG (N-MAG), and the New-MAG (N-MAG) will send the handover acknowledgement message, and create the tunneling between P-MAG and N-MAG. Now the data will be buffered in N-MAG. When the handover procedure is completed. then the buffer data will be provided to the MN.
