Abstract :
Base station multicast is an important enabling service for the current and future Internet. With the explosive growth of the Internet, a challenging issue facing Base Station multicast is scalability, in particular, the problem of multicast forwarding state and control explosion. In this paper, we propose a new methodology to address the multicast scalability problem for backbone domains - distributed message copying multicast (DMCM). This multicast scheme is designed for the wireless network, and is independent of any underlying intra-domain multicast protocols. The feasibility and performance of our algorithm is demonstrated through analysis and simulations.
