Abstract

This paper focuses on the reliable multicast in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), which is crucial for military and disaster rescue scenarios. Different from previous work, in this paper we introduce a new hybrid error control scheme that integrates interleaving, forward error correction (FEC), and automatic repeat request (ARQ) to mitigate the error and loss effects encountered in MANETs. To evaluate the performance of this scheme, mathematical analysis is conducted carefully. Numerical results from mathematical analysis show that this new hybrid error control scheme has shorter data transmission delay and less packet loss rate than the MANET multicast algorithm who only employs ARQ
