RMDP: an FEC-based reliable multicast protocol for wireless environments

Published: 01 April 1998 Publication History

Abstract

In this paper we present a Reliable Multicast data Distribution Protocols (RMDP), and discuss its performance. The protocol is based on the use of FEC techniques to drastically reduce the impact of independent losses for different receivers, which make ARQ-based protocols perform very poorly as the number of receivers grows. The protocol is well-suited to the use with mobile equipment because of its simplicity, robustness to losses, moderate demand for feedback, and scalability.
