Connectivity-Based Reliable Multicast MAC Protocol for IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs

Connectivity-Based Reliable Multicast MAC Protocol for IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs

We propose the efficient reliable multicast MAC protocol based on the connectivity information among the recipients. Enhancing the BMMM (Batch Mode Multicast MAC) protocol, the reliable multicast MAC protocol significantly reduces the RAK (Request for ACK) frame transmissions in a reasonable computa...
