However, that is very difficult because of the inherent characteristics of the wireless channel and the frequent changes of network topology caused by nodes movement. An Ad hoc QoS Multicasting (AQM) protocol can solve this problem by previously reserving the neighbor nodes for tracking resource availability. By considering QoS restrictions of transport delay, loss ratio, bandwidth requirement, delay jitter, and throughout, and by finding the adaptive routing, the AQM protocol can obviously improve the efficiency of multicastsession. The results of network simulation show that QoS is essentially applicable to Ad hoc networks.展开更多

The process of routing based on MRQW is provided for as well. Correctness proof and the complexity analysis of the MRQW are also given in the paper. Simulation results show that the MRQW has a good performance in creating multicast trees.

With this protocol, the resource reservation table of each node will record the bandwidth requirements of data flows, which access itself, its neighbor nodes and hidden nodes, and every node calculates the remaining available bandwidth by deducting the bandwidth reserved in the resource reservation table from the total available bandwidth of the node. Moreover, the BCMR searches in a distributed manner for the paths with the shortest delay conditioned by the bandwidth constraint. Simulation results demonstrate the good performance of BCMR in terms of packet delivery reliability and the delay. BCMR can meet the requirements of real time communication and can be used in the multicast applications with low mobility in wireless ad hoc networks.展开更多
