Abstract

For the Explicit Multicast (Xcast) scheme, we propose a scheme that provides dynamic group membership and supports large group members. In the scheme, group receivers can have dynamic group membership and a destination field of the Xcast header has addresses of Xcast-aware routers (XRs) instead of receivers in order to reduce the packet size. Analytical and simulation results show that our, scheme can reduce more Xcast header size and cost in forwarding packets than the Xcast, especially for a large multicast group. Like traditional multicast schemes, our scheme can support large multicast group members.
