One of the most important challenges in Mobile IPv6 is to provide the service for a mobile node to maintain its connectivity to the Internet when it moves from one domain to another, which is referred to as handover. Here we deal with the fast handover problem, which is to provide rapid handover service for the delay-sensitive and real-time applications. In this paper, we propose an enhanced fast handover scheme for Mobile IPv6. In our scheme, each AR (Access Router) maintains a CoA (Care of Address) table and generates the new CoA from NAR then it pass this nCoA to the MN that will move to its domain through PAR. Also, the binding updates to home agent and correspondent node are to be performed from the time point when the PAR sends FBack to MN and NAR simultaneously. The proposed scheme is depending on implementing DAD process in NAR instead of MN comparing with existing Fast Handover scheme. From the evaluation results, we can see that the proposed enhanced fast handover scheme can achieve low handover latency and low packet delay.
