In this paper, we proposed an effective multicast causal order algorithm with hand-off protocol for mobile networks. Since the size of control informations needed to enforce message transfer order has much influence on the performance of hand-off and message transfer in mobile networks, size of control information need to be minimized. We reduced the size of control information by analyzing all the valid communication patterns and pruning redundant information not required to enforce causal order as early as possible, and used hand-off protocol which requires minimal amount of control information to be transferred. By simulation, we found that the proposed algorithm showed better performance than other existing algorithms.

Secure delivery of multicast data can be achieved with the use of a group key for data encryption in mobile ad hoc network (MANET) applications based on the group communication. However, for the support of dynamic group membership, the group key has to be updated for each member joining/leaving and, consequently, a mechanism distributing an updated group key to members is required. The two major categories of the group key distribution mechanisms proposed for wired networks are the naive and the tree-based approaches. The naive approach is based on unicast, so it is not appropriate for large group communication environment. On the other hand, the tree-based approach is scalable in terms of the group size, but requires the reliable multicast mechanism for the group key distribution. In the sense that the reliable multicast mechanism requires a large amount of computing resources from mobile nodes, the tree-based approach is not desirable for the small-sized MANET environment. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new key distribution protocol, called the proxy-based key management protocol (PROMPT), which is based on the naive approach in the small-sized MANET environment. PROMPT reduces the message overhead of the naive through the first-hop grouping from a source node and the last-hop grouping from proxy nodes using the characteristics of a wireless channel.

IP is not suitable for mobile nodes by network-based routing because mobile nodes are dynamically change their network attachment point. Mobile-IP is an IETF standard providing continuous access to the Internet for mobile nodes, but it has the triangle routing problem. Also it has a performance degradation problem by massive packet loss during layer 3 handoff of mobile nodes. Especially, two IETF multicast support schemes for Mobile-IP do not guarantee the quality of realtime multimedia services because they have several problems such as long routing path, packet duplication(hi-directional tunneling) and massive packet loss(remote subscription). In this paper, we propose a lossless remote subscription scheme that guarantees the quality of realtime multimedia services over Mobile-IP. From the result of simulation, we verified that the proposed scheme in this paper can reduce the delay time of remote subscription by the effect of the low latency handoff scheme that is extended to apply to the multicast group management and it requires only 0.58% buffer spaces of the previously proposed lossless remote subscription scheme.

Since 2000, the demand for multimedia content consumption has been continuously increasing. The research and standardization for the mobile broadcast service has been done to deliver multimedia contents to the huge number of users with the minimum cost. A few commercial services started after the related standards were released. We call this mobile broadcast service the 1st generation service. Now, many experts are researching and developing the technologies for 3Screens(TV, PC, and Mobile) Services that an user can enjoy multimedia contents at every place with the various networks and devices. To enable this service, two main technical areas exist. The first is a core network technology that can support the various access network and the second is a common application layer technology. To resolve these technical areas, we propose IMS(IP Multimedia Subsystem) based OMA BCAST(Open Mobile Alliance Mobile Broadcast Service Enabler Suite) as the technical solution for 3 Screen Services in the paper. In addition, we propose application layer multicast that is enable to implement IMS based OMA BCAST to the existing network with the minimum cost. Finally, we show how we can save the implementation cost of IMS based OMA BCAST with the simulation results.

무선 Ad-hoc 네트워크는 어떠한 하부구조와 중앙관리의 도움 없이 임시 네트워크를 구성하는 무선 이동 호스트들의 집합이다. Ad-hoc 네트워크에도 오디오/비디오 등의 컨퍼런스가 열릴 수 있으며, 이때 다중의 호스트에 데이터를 전달하는 멀티캐스트 작업이 필요하다. Ad-hoc 네트워크에서는 네트워크 토폴로지의 동적인 변화로 인하여 전송경로가 변동되는 문제가 발생될 수 있다. 따라서 기존의 유선 네트워크에서 사용하던 트리 구축방법을 사용할 수 없다. 이러한 문제를 미리 예측하기 위하여 게이트웨이 호스트들의 이동성을 단계별로 분류한 것과 결합도를 전송하여 트리를 구축함으로써 호스트들의 이동에 따른 트리상의 경로가 끊어질 확률을 줄여 트리 재구축으로 소모되는 시간과 경비를 줄일 수 있다.

Internet protocol television (IPTV) service depends on the network quality of service (QoS) and bandwidth of the broadband service provider. IEEE 802.16j mobile multihop relay Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access networks have the opportunity to offer high bandwidth capacity by introducing relay stations. However, to actually satisfy QoS requirements for offering IPTV services (HDTV, SDTV, Web TV, and mobile TV) for heterogeneous users' requests, providers must use a video server for each IPTV service type, which increases the network load, especially bandwidth consumption and forwarding time. In this paper, we present a solution for forwarding IPTV video streaming to diverse subscribers via an 802.16j broadband wireless access network. In particular, we propose a new multicast tree construction and aggregation mechanism based on the unique property of prime numbers. Performance evaluation results show that the proposed scheme reduces both bandwidth consumption and forwarding time.

This paper proposes an efficient micro mobility scheme to support user mobility inside an access network which employs Ipv6. The proposed scheme, namely SMM(Sparse-mode Multicast for mobility), utilizes a class of multicast protocol, PIM-SM, in the visited access network to reduce signaling to the home agent as well as to the correspondent node and to minimize packet loss during the handoff when mobile user changes its point of attachment frequently. Through the simulation, the performance of the proposed SMM is analyzed and compared with those of Mobile nv6 and for the case which adpots PIM-DM. The result shows that SMM provides significantly better performance in terms of packet loss that is invariant to transmission rate and packet size.

본 논문에서는 이동호스트에게 멀티미디어 데이터 전송 시 고려되어야 할 주요 특징과 문제점을 검토하고 이때 발생하는 문제점을 해결하기 위해 Mobile-IP환경에서 네트워크 링크의 공유에 의해 자원을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있는 멀티캐스트 방법을 기반으로 하고 이러한 멀티캐스트를 위한 인터넷 라우팅 프로토콜로는 링크-상태(link-state)알고리즘을 기반으로 하는 MOSPF(Multicast Open Shortest Path First)를 이용한다. 또한 인터넷상에서 라우터들이 멀티캐스트 그룹에 속하는 호스트들을 추적하기 위한 방법으로 IGMP(Internet Group Management Protocol)을 제안 사용하였다. 기존에 제안되어 사용되어지고 있는 UDP/IP based multicast를 사용할 경우에 패킷손실이나 전송지연 등을 위한 어떠한 성능도 보장받지 못하고 많은 대역폭이 요구되는 실시간 패킷들은 중계기의 트래픽 폭주(congestion) 현상에 의해 손실될 가능성이 높다. 이를 해결하기 위한 방안으로 실시간 데이터 전송 및 QOS를 제공하기 위해 RTP/RTCP 프로토콜을 접목시키는 방식을 기술하였다.

In this paper, a multicast mechanism is proposed for intermittently disconnected networks where the nodes move forward in formation or within a limited area. The proposed scheme extends the well-known tree-based multicast routing mechanism called MAODV by modifying the tree construction and data delivery scheme. Especially, an algorithm is introduced which determines the flooding hop count k estimating the degree of the movement of children in the tree. The performance evaluation was done by the simulation and the proposed scheme was compared with MAODV and two multicast routing schemes for DTN (Disruption Tolerant Network) including the Epidemic routing and ST-multicast. The evaluation results show that our scheme improves the original MAODV from the aspect of tree reconstruction events and message delivery ratio. Compared with the Epidemic routing scheme, our scheme achieves 85% message delivery ratio with less than 50% message delivery overhead.
