Wireless networking and mobile Internet rely on mobility management protocols in order to provide reachability and session continuity for mobile nodes. This paper presents a comparative analysis on the global mobility management schemes MIPv6, SIP and their integration. For each scheme, analytical models are developed for mobility costs taking into consideration all the related aspects. We consider the signaling, data packet delivery, tunneling, and processing costs. The impacts of several parameters on the mobility costs are then investigated.
