摘要

在本論文中，我們考慮在MOBILE IP 網路中提供行動主機群播服務的問題並且提出一個新的群播路由機制以改善在Mobile IP網路上的群播效率。在我們的機制中避免一些群播在Mobile IP上的問題，例如群播樹的重建和封包遺失…等。
在我們的建議機制中，首先我們採取階層式網路結構並利用CBT群播路由協定在每個群播群組中選出一個核心路由器，在此機制裏我們稱它為群播代理人，以此方式去隱藏行動主機在群播群組的行動性；另外，我們利用將鄰近的基地台組織成一個虛擬區域，而且藉著同一虛擬區域內的基地台在行動主機發生換手時提前加入相同的群播群組，以此方式得到較好的效率與克服在行動主機在跨越不同網域時發生的問題。
我們研究主要貢獻有下列幾點：
(1) 利用群播代理人的階層式網路結構可以隔絕行動主
機在群播樹中的行動性。
(2) 藉著利用虛擬區域，我們可以獲得快速換手的效果
以減少接收資料的遺失。
(3) 此建議機制也可以限制群播樹的重建頻率以及減少
群播群組的加入和修剪的延遲。
我們藉著與現存群播路由機制作比較，我們可以發現建議機制裏在一些方面擁有較好的效率。

In this thesis, we consider the problem of
providing multicast to mobile hosts using mobile IP for network routing support and propose a new multicast routing scheme to improve multicast
efficiency in mobile IP networks. The proposal also can avoid some problems of multicast over mobile IP, such as reconstruction of multicast delivery tree and packet loss due to handoff, etc.
In our proposal, at first we introduce a hierarchical mobility management approach and adopt the multicast agent which is a multicast router by using the Core Based Tree protocol (CBT) in each multicast group to shield mobility within foreign domain. Then, we organize adjacent cells where mobile host visits the foreign network into virtual domain. By informing the adjacent base stations to subscribe to the same multicast group before a handoff occurs, we can get better efficiency and overcome some problems that mobile hosts cross foreign networks.
The contributions of our research are as
follows:
(1) The hierarchical mobility architecture using
the multicast agent can isolate the mobility
of the mobile hosts from the main multicast
tree.
(2) By employing the virtual domain, we can
achieve fast handoff performance so as to
reduce disruption to multicast reception.
(3) It also limits the reconstruction frequency
of multicast delivery tree due to the
handoff and eliminates multicast group join
and graft latencies.
With comparison of the proposed scheme and some existing schemes, we can find that our proposal have better efficiency.
