In recent years, the Named Data Networking (NDN) paradigm has emerged as a promising candidate for future Internet architecture. Underpinned by the notion of a data-centric forwarding philosophy, NDN is purported to offer seamless network communication for mobile users. However, while it provides inherent support for consumer mobility, viable solutions for producer mobility remain insufficient. Therefore, this study aims to highlight the mobility issues in NDN, particularly concerning high latency, Interest packet loss, and Interest retransmission, with a focus on producer mobility. In this paper, we critically review previous works based on proactive and reactive approaches. Furthermore, we propose a mobility management model that adopts a proactive approach, estimating the producer's handoff time from the connected access point. The proposed model leverages this information to notify consumers about the moving producer, aiming to prevent consumers from sending Interest to the mobile producer during handoff and thereby overcome the associated challenges. © 2024 IEEE.
