Abstract

Ad-hoc networks have the dynamic topology characteristics and most of the applications on ad-hoc networks require the group communication capability. Previously proposed multicast mechanisms on mobile ad-hoc networks build multicast-infrastructures like the tree or mesh for the group communication and these infrastructures nay cause significant overhead especially in a highly dynamic mobile ad-hoc network environment. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new multicast mechanism supporting multicast services based on only the underlying unicast routing tables, hence any multicast-related infrastructures like trees and meshes are not required to be constructed.

동적 토폴로지 특성을 가지는 애드-혹 네트워크에서의 응용들 중 많은 부분이 그룹 통신을 기반으로 하고 있다. 그러나 현재의 멀티캐스팅은 각 그룹에 대하여 트리나 메쉬와 같은 멀티캐스트 하부 구조를 기반으로 동작하므로, 동적으로 토폴로지가 변화하는 환경에서는 많은 오버헤드를 야기시킨다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 응용의 특성상 소규모 그룹 통신이 주종을 이루는 애드-혹 네트워크 환경에서 멀티캐스트 하부 구조를 구축하지 않고 유니캐스트 라우팅 테이블만을 기반으로 멀티캐스팅 서비스를 제공하는 새로운 기법을 제안한다.
