Abstract
A new multicast routing algorithm is introduced for multi-layered satellite networks, which include GEO, MEO, and LEO layers. This scheme aims to minimize the total cost of multicast trees in the satellite network. Multicast trees are constructed and maintained in the dynamic satellite network topology in a distributed manner. Simulation results are provided to evaluate the performance of this scheme in terms of end-to-end delay and multicast tree cost.
