Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the performance of hierarchical multicast protocol in IP micro mobility networks. The most important parameters to provide multicast service in IP micro mobility networks are the connection recovery time and the reconstruction cost of multicast tree according to the host mobility. So we derive the average connection recovery time and total tree reconstruction cost due to the handoff of mobile hosts by considering the hierarchical structure of IP micro mobility networks. We also verify the analytical results by simulation.
