Reliable multicast routing with local recovery approach in Ad Hoc Network

Abstract

An ad hoc network is a multi-hop wireless network formed by a collection of mobile nodes without the intervention of fixed infrastructure. Reliable Multicast plays a significant role in many applications of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). In recent years, a number of protocols have been proposed to deliver multicast packets reliably. In this paper we intend to propose a reliable multicast algorithm with local recovery approach, because importance of on-demand routing protocol we use this method in our algorithm. By using this algorithm nodes can join to multicast group in minimum time and data delivery will be increase. This method achieves fast recovery when route breakage happens, so destination can connect to source in new route or the same route.
