REVERSE ROUTING HEADER (RRH): RRH [7] uses the mechanism of source routing technique to route the packets in optimal path for the nested mobile networks, while sending the packets from MNN to CN. The Mobile Router (MR) which is connected to MNN allocates 'n' number of RRH's to the previous Mobile Router (MR) along with the tunnel header.

The last Mobile Router (MR) inserts its home address in slot 1. The destination address of the outer IPv6 header is the HA of last Mobile Router (MR), and the source address is the care-of address of last MR. When the packet arrives at previous Mobile Router (MR) the Mobile Router (MR) swaps the source address with its care-of address, and records the original source address in next slot of the RRH it is similar for all Mobile Router (MR) that is connected in nested mobile network. The packet is then tunneled to the HA of 'n'th MR. Once 'n'th MR HA receives this packet, it notices the RRH and finds the packet being tunneled from the 'n'th MR. the HA then decapsulates and forwards the packet to CN [8].

The HA also creates a Binding Cache for 'n'th MR, including the entries recorded in the RRH and the source address of the outer IPv6 header. This Binding Cache allows packets to the MNN to be tunneled using the RRH for the opposite direction. The RRH protocol leaves the MNN and the CN untouched and only the intermediate MRs and the HA are required with the modification. RRH protocol offers the optimal route while achieving security equivalent to the NEMO Basic Support protocol.

RECURSIVE BINDING UPDATE (RBT) : Recursive Binding Update is helpful to utilize the binding information of the MR contained in the binding cache of the CN. When the CN wants to send a packet to the Visiting Mobile Node (V...

...sed to simulate both the scenarios. From the simulated scenario the output is recorded in a separate file with .tr extension. From the resultant file the total number of packets transferred, total number of packets dropped, packets source and destination node were predicted. The data is given in Table 1.

The following XGRAPH (Figure - 4) shows the Packet Loss during the packet transfer in the existing system. The total number of packet lost during packet transfer from correspondent node to the mobile network node is plotted in y axis and the time is plotted in x axis. The packets that are dropped are represented by dots. The dots are over crowded which depicts that the packet loss in the existing system is high. As the packet loss increases the quality of service decreases. Increased packet loss causes jitters and poor video display which is annoying for the user.
