Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) IP multicast is seen as an efficient way of encouraging multimedia services such as Internet TV and Videoconferencing because it can deliver packets to multiple users while efficiently using network resources. Source Specific Multicast (SSM) is suggested as the IP multicast routing protocol and it can construct multicast trees efficiently. However, to support SSM in the network, every router must support SSM. Moreover, SSM increases multicast forwarding table entries and fails to handle source mobility. This paper proposes the Unicast Extension Multicast Protocol (UMP) to solve these problems, and show the quantitative analysis of UMP and the conventional methods by computer simulation.
