Abstract

This paper introduces AMRIS, a new multicast routing protocol for ad hoc wireless networks. AMRIS (Ad hoc Multicast Routing protocol utilizing Increasing id-numberS)is designed to operate independently of underlying unicast protocols.
The idea behind AMRIS is to dynamically assign every node (on demand) in a multicast session with an id-number. The
ordering between id-numbers is used to direct the multicast flow, and the sparseness among them used for quick connectivity repair. A multicast delivery tree rooted at a special node called Sid joins up the nodes participating in the multicast session. The relationship between the id-numbers (and the nodes that own them) and Sid is that the id-numbers increase in numerical value as they radiate from Sid in the delivery tree. These id-numbers help the nodes dynamically leave and join a session, as well as adapt rapidly to changes in link connectivity (due to mobility etc). Messages to repair a link breakage are confined to the region where it occurs. AMRIS is simulated with PARSEC and the results reported. This work was supported in part by National University of Singapore ARF Grant RP960683.
