摘要:
The present invention relates to a mobile multicast system and a method thereof, and more particularly to a network-based mobility multicast system and a method thereof. The system according to one embodiment of the present invention is the mobile multicast system for supporting the network-based mobility comprising: access points which communicate with mobile terminals within an access network through a wireless channel, obtains layer 2 addresses of the terminals, and provides the obtained layer 2 addresses of the terminals; management parts which control a handover of each terminal included in the access points, transmit multicast packets to be provided to the terminals, and are provided according to the access points; a router which receives the multicast data through the network, and transmits the multicast packets to the terminals for receiving the multicast data; and a mobile control server which obtains position information of the terminals from the management parts, transmits a query message for determining the reception of the multicast data to each of the management parts so as to confirm whether the terminals join the multicast when receiving the query message from the router, and controls setting of a tunnel between the router and the management part for transmitting a membership report message when receiving the membership report message for joining the multicast.
摘要:
A method includes transferring a general query message to managers of a mobility control server in response to receiving, from a router, the general query message for detecting a mobile node that requested to receive multicast data; storing, in a multicast mapping table, an address of the mobile node that requested to receive the multicast data when a membership report message of the mobile node is received from at least one of the managers and transferring the membership report message to the router; and forming a tunnel between the router and a manager that transfers the membership report message.
