There has been a recent trend towards an all-IP network as it provides for cost-savings together with optimized network and ease of use. But IP was designed for wired networks and wireless scenario was not envisioned. Owing to explosive growth of wireless users and growing demand of wireless services the internet body IETF has developed mobility management schemes to enhance IPv6 in mobility scenarios for wireless subscribers. These IPv6-based mobility management schemes like MIPv6, HMIPv6 and Fast Handovers adversely affect the performance of transport protocols like TCP during handoff. In this paper, we attempt to evaluate the impact of these mobility management schemes on TCP variants, which differ from each other with respect to congestion control algorithms used.
