Abstract

Recent routing/multicast protocols in large-scale mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) adopt two-tier infrastructures by selecting backbone hosts (BHs) in order to avoid the inefficiency of the flooding. Further, previous MANET quality-of-service (QoS) routing/multicasting protocols determined bandwidth-satisfied routes for QoS applications. However, they suffer from two bandwidth-violation problems. In this paper, a novel algorithm that can avoid the two problems is proposed and integrated with the two-tier infrastructures to construct bandwidth-satisfied multicast trees for QoS applications in large-scale MANETs.
