Performance evaluation of L3 transport of MIH messages Scenario: MN connects to AP MN registers with PoS Case 1: MN generates indications every 0.5 second Case 2: PoS generates requests every 0.5 second Measurements (average over 4000 seconds of simulation time): Transaction success rate (i.e. indication or response received) Delay to complete a transaction Overhead created by the MIH acknowledgement mechanisms and the transport layer Transport throughput Input parameters: Transport layer used (UDP or TCP) ACK mechanism at MIH level Packet loss in the network [0-50%] TCP max retransmission timeout (RTO) Timer values for retransmission at MIH level |
