Abstract
A new multicast scheme for mobile nodes is proposed to support real-time communication in a more efficient way. In the proposed multicast scheme, the Xcast (a very flexible data plane mechanism) is integrated with the SIP (a very flexible control plane protocol) to support multicast for mobile nodes. The simulation results verify that the proposed scheme reduces unnecessary network traffic and achieves low latency of packets in the network.
