Abstract

Using data of passenger numbers and train schedules from the London Underground metropolitan railway system, we compare a Tunnelling-based to a Naming-based approach for supporting mobile networks. We show that, in terms of packet overhead, a naming based approach may have similar performance overhead to a tunnelling approach, and so may offer a viable alternative, whilst also offering other benefits.
