MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND METHOD CAPABLE OF ALLOWING SHORTEST COMMUNICATIONS PATH

摘要

In a mobile communication system including a home Mobile-IPv6 network for allocating a home address as a permanent address to a mobile node, a foreign Mobile-IPv6 network for allocating a care-of address to the mobile node, and at least one network including a stationary correspondent node not implementing Mobile-IPv6, a location supervising module stores the home address and said care-of address of the mobile node when the mobile node is away from the home Mobile-IPv6 network to the foreign Mobile-IPv6 network. An IP address translating module is provided for translation of an IP address between IPv6 and a protocol other than IPv6.
