Reliable multicast transport services for content delivery in heterogeneous mobile environment
(2007)
For efficient deployment of new reliable multicast applications in heterogeneous mobile Internet environments, appropriate retransmission strategies are proposed. The focus is the minimization of the protocol overhead for reliable transport taking into account behaviour in mobile networks (oss and handover behaviour) and application requirements (such as carousel file transfer, one-to-many download and media streaming combined with recording). The proposed techniques are designed as building blocks for localized multicast error control supported by access routers. Considering IETF RMT standardization work, the discussed retransmission approaches can be used for flexible configuration of tree-based reliable multicast protocols in converged wired and wireless Internet environment. The implementation developed for the European project DAIDALOS [1] is based on Linux IPv6 environment. Simulations in ns2 focusing on the benefits of the proposed multicast retransmission schemes for particular application scenarios are presented.
With the rapid advances in multimedia content delivery technologies, there is an increasing challenge for efficient Quality of Service (QoS) based multicast transport in mobile Internet environment. This paper discusses architectural approach for provision of multicast services in heterogeneous mobile IPv6 environment using context transfer. Following issues of QoS based mobile multicast transport are addressed: - Application of context transfer between access routers for seamless handover of active multicast services; - Adaptation of multicast group management and routing designed for wired IPv6 infrastructures to heterogeneous mobile environment; - Candidate access router discovery and context aware user interfaces for optimised handover; - Reliable mobile multicast for content delivery supported by context transfer at access routers; - Distributed QoS management of multicast services in heterogeneous mobile environment. The work is part of the mobile architecture developed in the EU IST project DAIDALOS.
