Multicast can transmit data packet to multiple terminals by using only one transmission and enhances the system performance. However, the multicast transmission rate is fixed and the system performance is not optimized. In this paper, we propose an adaptive multicast rate control method. In the proposed method, orthogonal subcarrier is assigned to each terminal. Each terminal informs the channel status using the allocated subcarrier. Transmitter selects the optimal rate using the feedback information. With the proposed adaptive rate control method, the system performance is enhanced compared with the legacy multicast method.

The interest for IPv6, which is next generation IP, increases, while the difficulty for adopting it into IT industries also increases too. We also expect that Internet technologies develop on basis of All-IP networks, which include various heterogeneous networks. Therefore, it is necessary for network to support mobility and multicast capability to create applications with wide-variety. In this paper, we propose a new mobile multicasting protocol called Mobile IPv6 Multicast Protocol(MIMP). The proposed scheme satisfies no packet losses from roaming and optimal routing efficiency.

Unlikely unicast transmission, there are many elements that threaten security. Thus, key management of creating and distributing group keys to authorized group members is a critical aspect of secure multicast operations. To offer security in multicast environment, the recent researches are related to most group key distribution. In this thesis, we propose a group key management protocol for efficient, scalable, and multicast operation. This proposed protocol architecture can distribute traffic centralized to the key server. since the group key rekeyed by sub-group manager. The detailed simulation compared with other group key management protocol show that the proposed group key management protocol is better for join, leave, and data latency.

The scope ID field of IPv6 multicast address indicates the zone of the destination for which a multicast traffic is intended. Without any further examination on the header field, the scope ID enables a router to determine whether the traffic will be forwarded to a subnet or not. For the graceful migration from IPv4 networks to IPv6 networks, various IPv6 applications working through IPv4 networks are indispensable during the migration period. This paper describes development of an interactive remote lecture system providing service integration on voice, image, and data of teaching materials. Access right to the network for dialog among multicast group members is controlled via additional TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) session. A jitter buffer algorithm was implemented to improve the voice communication jitters.

While a lot of important information is being sent and received on the Internet, the information could be exposed to many threats, and the more the Multicast Service is various and generalized, the more the service range is widened. When a new member joins in or leaves from the Multicast Group, the Group Key, which the existing member use for, should be newly updated. The existing method had a problem that the performance was depreciated by the key exchanging. This paper proposes the effective group management mechanism for a secure transmission of the Multicast Data on the Multicast Group.

Multicast Routings is a big challenge due to limitations such as node power and bandwidth Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET). The path to be chosen from the source to the destination node requires protocols. Multicast protocols support group-oriented operations in a bandwidth-efficient way. While several protocols for multi-cast MANETs have been evolved, security remains a challenging problem. Consequently, MANET is required for high quality of service measures (QoS) such infrastructure and application to be identified. The goal of a MANETs QoS-aware protocol is to discover more optimal pathways between the network source/destination nodes and hence the QoS demands. It works by employing the optimization method to pick the route path with the emphasis on several QoS metrics. In this paper safe routing is guaranteed using the Secured Multicast Routing offered in MANET by utilizing the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) technique to integrate the QOS-conscious route setup into the route selection. This implies that only the data transmission may select the way to meet the QoS limitations from source to destination. Furthermore, the track reliability is considered when selecting the best path between the source and destination nodes. For the optimization of the best path and its performance, the optimized algorithm called the micro artificial bee colony approach is chosen about the probabilistic ant routing technique.

In this paper, the downlink of the multicast based spatial modulation systems is investigated. Specifically, physical layer multicasting is introduced to increase the number of access users and to improve the communication rate of the spatial modulation system in which only single radio frequency chain is activated in each transmission. To minimize the bit error rate (BER) of the multicast based spatial modulation system, a joint optimizing algorithm of antenna selection and multicast precoding is proposed. Firstly, the joint optimization is transformed into a mixed-integer non-linear program based on single-stage reformulation. Then, a novel iterative algorithm based on the idea of branch and bound is proposed to obtain the quasioptimal solution. Furthermore, in order to balance the performance and time complexity, a low-complexity deflation algorithm based on the successive convex approximation is proposed which can obtain a sub-optimal solution. Finally, numerical results are showed that the convergence of our proposed iterative algorithm is between 10 and 15 iterations and the signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) of the iterative algorithm is 1-2dB lower than the exhaustive search based algorithm under the same BER accuracy conditions.

When demand for transmitting multimedia data increases, network congestion is more likely to occur and users will suffer high loss rate as well as high delay. In order to enhance quality-of-service (QoS) of video multicasting, we need to raise transmission reliability and reduce end-to-end delay. This paper proposes a routing mechanism for a OpenFlow-based small-scale network in order to multicast video reliably with low delay. In our method, multipath routing will be applied to Multiple Description (MD) Coded video to exploit its multi-description property. Through performance evaluation, our method shows improvement on loss rate, delay and video distortion.

Multicasting is an efficient way of group communications because one sender can transmit data to multiple receivers with only one transmission. Furthermore, multicasting is considered an appropriate transmission method for multimedia services. Multimedia applications are expected to become more prevalent over mobile ad-hoc networks in the near future. Therefore, achieving reliability in multimedia communications is an important task. In this paper, we propose a leader-based reliable multicast medium access control layer protocol for multimedia applications to enhance video quality. We present a Markov chain model and numerical formulation of our proposed system.

IP-TV 서비스는 통신/방송 융합서비스로서 데이터 스트림이 송출되는 Server로부터 QoS가 보장되는 IP망을 통해 디지털 영상 방송이나 양방향 서비스를 가입자 단말까지 제공하는 서비스이다. IP-TV 서비스는 보안을 위해 CAS(Conditional Access System)를 사용하고, 또한 효율적인 콘텐츠의 전송을 위해 IP Multicast를 사용하게 된다. 보안 기능이 제공되지 않는 IP Multicast는 익명성을 허용하게 하여 eavesdropping, denial of service(DoS) Attack등이 가능하고, 또한 AAA(Authentication, Accounting, Authorization) 기능이 제공되지 않는다. IP-TV에서는 보안을 제공하기위해 Application 계층에서 CAS를 운용하게 되는데, 이는 Network계층에서 보안문제를 해결하는 것 보다 비효율적이다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 IGMP프로토콜을 확장, 개선하여 상호인증을 통해 CAS Server와 연계하여 IP-TV에 적합하게 만든 프로토콜을 제시함으로서, 이와 같은 문제점들을 해결하였다.
