Efficient Multicast Support Exploiting Mobility of Hosts

概要

論文の詳細を見る
The IETF Mobile IP defines two multicast options: remote subscription (RS) and bi-direction tunneling (BT). In order to synthesize the strong points of these two IETF multicast options we propose a hybrid approach, mMOM, which selectively uses two IETF multicast options based on the mobility of mobile hosts. Whenever a mobile host requests its first registration to a certain foreign agent, the corresponding foreign agent starts the service using the BT option. Afterwards, if it requests re-registration to the same foreign agent, the foreign agent considers it to be relatively immobile and continues services using the RS option. We propose a new metric to compare heterogeneous algorithms. Simulation results show that our approach outperforms all others.
