— Multicast-based data communication is an efficient communication scheme especially in multihop ad hoc networks where the MAC layer is based on one-hop broadcast from one sourc...
Abstract— Heterogeneous multicast is an efficient communication scheme especially for multimedia applications running over multihop networks when multicast receivers in the same...
In this paper, we propose a bandwidth-efficient multicast mechanism for heterogeneous wireless networks. We reduce the bandwidth cost of an Internet Protocol (IP) multicast tree by...
— We consider a multicast resource allocation problem for the downlink in OFDM-based wireless cellular network systems. In a conventional multicast system, to accommodate users w...
In this paper, we propose a utility-based resource allocation scheme for layer-encoded IPTV multicast streaming service over IEEE 802.16 WiMAX networks. Unlike existing utility-bas...
