Abstract :
In this paper, we compare and investigate BMW and BMMM proposed as multicast protocol in IEEE 802.11. M.T.Sun et al. analyzed wireless multicast protocol and they proposed BMMM protocol more efficient than BMW. But efficiency of BMW had not been evaluated clearly in paper BMMM, so efficiency of BMMM is better than BMMM. However, we analyze BMW and BMMM properly and demonstrate that the transmission time of BMW is shorter than that of BMMM through simulation.
