Abstract

With the proliferation of mobile devices and various mobile services, ensuring smooth mobility for users has become a major challenge. The future internet is expected to be more mobile-friendly, with advancing technologies that will transform internet management in the coming decades. These technological advancements will help address mobility issues and provide a better internet experience for mobile devices and users. The transport layer plays a crucial role in the internet protocol suite by enabling communication between applications running on different servers. However, the widely used protocols, TCP and UDP, have several limitations, such as unreliability and slow performance due to three-way handshakes. To tackle these issues, Google introduced quick UDP internet connections (QUIC). QUIC aims to enhance latency, delay, and data transmission reliability. Q-MOFI, a future internet architecture focused on mobile devices and based on QUIC, strives to achieve these goals. Moreover, it enhances throughput by implementing multiplexing. Q-MOFI outperforms traditional UDP-based MOFI in terms of throughput gains, minimizing packet loss, and reducing binding operation latency, even when the number of hosts increases. The efficiency of this model has been validated through experimental testing.
