An Architecture to Support QoS Multicast Routing for Ad-Hoc Networks

摘要

In this paper, we present an architecture for supporting QoS multicast routing in ad-hoc networks. The proposed architecture consists of three parts as follows. The first part is a clustering as underlying structure for supporting stable multicast services. In the second part, a framework which can support and evaluate the stability of route and network for supporting QoS routing is presented. In the third part, we describe a method which uses two structures of the first and second parts for supporting QoS multicast routing services.
