Abstract(in English)	It is necessary to install two or more wireless LAN access points (APs) to improve the capacity where lots of users use the wireless LAN such as the airports or some popular shops. In case of distributing the visual contents by using multicast in such environment, if the multicast receivers of same group connect different APs, there is a problem that the wireless bandwidth is wasted redundantly because the APs transmit same data. In this paper, we propose a multicast receiver aggregation method that lets the multicast receivers of same group connect same AP by controlling the connecting APs of the multicast receivers by the hotspot management router. And we implemented it to the experimental environment and evaluated the effectiveness.
