文摘The mobile multicast technology has been a research hotspot in the wireless Internet field in recent years.Quite a large part of its applications requires the reliability in a mobile environment to be equivalent to that provided by wireline links.However,the inherent features of a mobile environment,that is,high error rate of links and dynamically changing multicast members’ locations,are great difficulties for mobile multicast,let alone reliable mobile multicast.The IPv4-based reliable mobile multicast algorithms come with two different design philosophies.A part of the algorithms is to be improved for better reliability by solving existing algorithm-related problems;while other algorithms are to implement reliable mobile multicast with new function entities introduced to guarantee reliability.
