Abstract--Mobility protocols are designed to support han-
dover between different wireless networks. Many of them
suffer problems such as high handover latency, high packet
overhead, high packet loss during handoff, lack of application
transparency, etc. To remove these problems, we proposed a
network layer based mobility protocol framework, SEamless
MObility using shim6 (SEMO6), for host mobility. It is based on
using the SHIM6 protocol and provides multihoming, mobility
and application transparency. The goal of this paper is to
present the system framework, analyze signalling cost, and
evaluate the performance of this mobility management protocol.
