Various application services including multimedia applications need efficient multicast technologies, but the IEEE 802.11 protocol, which is currently the most widely used, does not specify the standard on multicast, which is, instead, substituted by broadcast or a combination of unicast. Using broadcast is, however, difficult to judge on the transmission success or fail, because it does not receive...
In this paper an innovative framework based on the cooperation between MAC and routing protocols is proposed with the purpose of improving the reliability of multicast transmissions in a Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET). The proposed framework adds new features to the On-Demand Multicast Routing Protocol (ODMRP) and to the IEEE 802.11MAC layer. This choice allows to exploit the mesh-based nature of the...
