A STUDY ON RECEIVER BASED MULTICAST FOR WIRELESS SENSOR

ABSTRACT
Multicast routing protocols typically rely on the a priori creation of a multicast tree (or mesh), which
requires the individual nodes to maintain state information. In dynamic networks with bursty traffic, where long
periods of silence are expected between the bursts of data, this multicast state maintenance adds a large amount of
communication, processing, and memory overhead for no benefit to the application. Thus, we have developed a
stateless receiver-based multicast (RBMulticast) protocol that simply uses a list of the multicast members’ (e.g.,
sinks’) addresses, embedded in packet headers, to enable receivers to decide the best way to forward the multicast
traffic. This protocol, called Receiver-Based Multicast, exploits the knowledge of the geographic locations of the
nodes to remove the need for costly state maintenance (e.g., tree/mesh/neighbor table maintenance), making it
ideally suited for multicasting in dynamic networks. RBMulticast was implemented in the OPNET simulator and
tested using a sensor network implementation.
Index terms: RB Multicast, OPNET, Traffic, Protocol.
I INTRODUCTION
Multicast members are requesting data to
source, source checks whether the multicast members
are requesting different data, if source send data
through intermediate nodes else intermediate nodes acts
as a multicast region and send a copy of data to one of
the multicast member. Multicast members addresses are
embedded in a RB Header.
II LITERATURE SURVEY
GPSR: GREEDY PERIMETER STATELESS
ROUTING FOR WIRELESS NETWORKS
C.-H. Feng and W.B. Heinzelman says that
Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing (GPSR), a novel
routing protocol for wireless datagram networks that
uses the positions of routers and a packet’s destination
to make packet forwarding decisions. GPSR makes
greedy forwarding decisions using only information
about a router’s immediate neighbors in the network
topology. When a packet reaches a region where greedy
forwarding is impossible, the algorithm recovers by
routing around the perimeter of the region. By keeping
state only about the local topology, GPSR scales better
in per-router state than shortest-path and ad-hoc routing
protocols as the number of network destinations
increases. Under mobility’s frequent topology changes,
GPSR can use local topology information to find
correct new routes quickly. We describe the GPSR
protocol, and use extensive simulation of mobile
wireless networks to compare its performance with that
of Dynamic Source Routing. Our simulations
demonstrate GPSR’s scalability on densely deployed
wireless networks.
A CROSS-LAYER PROTOCOL FOR EFFICIENT
COMMUNICATION IN WIRELESS SENSOR
NETWORKS
I. Akyildiz, M. Vuran, and O. Akan says that
severe energy constraints of battery-powered sensor
nodes necessitate energy-efficient communication in
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, the vast
majority of the existing solutions is based on classical
layered protocols approach, which leads to significant

overhead. It is much more efficient to have a unified
scheme which blends common pro layer functionalities
into a cross-layer module. In this paper, a cross layer
protocol (XLP) is introduced, which achieves
congestion control, routing, and medium access control
in a cross-layer fashion. The design principle of XLP is
based on the cross-layer concept of initiative
determination, which enables receiver-based
contention, initiative-based forwarding, local
congestion control, and distributed duty cycle operation
to realize efficient and reliable communication in
WSNs. The initiative determination requires simple
comparisons against thresholds, and thus is very simple
to implement, even on computationally impaired
devices. To the best of our knowledge, XLP is the first
protocol that integrates functionalities of all layers from
PHY to transport into a cross-layer protocol. A cross-
layer analytical framework is developed to investigate
the performance of the XLP. Moreover, in a cross-layer
simulation platform, the state-of-the- art layered and
cross-layer protocols have been implemented along
with XLP for performance evaluations. XLP
significantly improves the communication performance
and outperforms the traditional layered protocol
architectures in terms of both network performance and
Implementation complexity.
A MULTICAST ROUTING PROTOCOL FOR AD-
HOC NETWORKS
J.Garcia-Luna-Aceves and E.Madruga
introduces the Core-Assisted Mesh Protocol (CAMP) is
introduced for multicast routing in ad-hoc networks.
CAMP generalizes the notion of core-based trees
introduced for internet multicasting into multicast
meshes that have much richer connectivity than trees. A
shared multicast mesh is defined for each multicast
group; the main goal of using such meshes is to
maintain the connectivity of multicast groups even
while network routers move frequently. CAMP consists
of the maintenance of multicast meshes and loop-free
packet forwarding over such meshes. Within the
multicast mesh of a group, packets from any source in
the group are forwarded along the reverse shortest path
to the source, just as in traditional multicast protocols
based on source-based trees. CAMP guarantees that,
within a finite time, every receiver of a multicast group
has a reverse shortest path to each source of the
multicast group. Multicast packets for a group are
forwarded along the shortest paths from sources to
receivers defined within the group’s mesh. CAMP uses
cores only to limit the traffic needed for a router to join
a multicast group; the failure of cores does not stop
packet forwarding or the process of maintaining the
multicast meshes.
GEOCASTING IN MOBILE AD HOC
NETWORKS: LOCATION-BASED MULTICAST
ALGORITHMS
K.Chen and K.Nahrstedt introduced the
effective location-guided tree construction algorithm, it
addresses the problem of geocasting in mobile ad hoc
network (MANET) environments. Recasting is a
variant of the conventional multicasting problem. For
multicasting, conventional protocols define a multicast
group as a collection of hosts which register to a
multicast group address. However, for geocasting, the
group consists of the set of all nodes within a specified
geographical region. Hosts within the specified region
at a given time form the geocast group at that time. We
present two different algorithms for delivering packets
to such a group, and present simulation results.
GEOGRAPHIC RANDOM FORWARDING
(GERAF) FOR AD HOC AND SENSOR
NETWORKS: MULTI HOP PERFORMANCE
J.G.Jetcheva and D.B.Johnson proposed a
novel forwarding technique based on geographical
location of the nodes involved and random selection of
the relaying node via contention among receivers. We
focus on the multi hop performance of such a solution,
in terms of average number of hops to reach a
destination as a function of the distance and of the
average number of available neighbors. An idealized
scheme (in which the best relay node is always chosen)
is discussed, and its performance is evaluated by means
of both simulation and analytical techniques. A
practical scheme to select one of the best relays is
shown to achieve performance very close to that of the
ideal case. Some discussion about design issues for
practical implementation is also given.
III CONCLUSION
Current multicast protocols generally rely on
various tree structures and hence intermediate nodes
need to maintain tree states or routing states for packet
delivery. In this paper, we presented a new stateless
multicast protocol for ad hoc networks called Receiver-
Based Multicast. RBMulticast stores a destination list
inside the packet header; this destination list provides

information on all multicast members to which this
packet is targeted. Thus, there is no need for a multicast
tree and therefore no tree state is stored at the
intermediate nodes. The sender node does not need a
routing table or a neighbor table to send packets but
instead uses a “virtual node” as the packet destination.
Thus, RB Multicast requires the least amount of state of
any existing multicast protocol.
