Retransmission Decision Method for Wireless Multicast in Ad-Hoc Networks
Byung-Seo Kim, Sung Won Kim · IEICE Transactions on Communications · 2011
In order to improve multicast performance in wireless networks, we propose two methods for reducing the number of retransmissions and decreasing the backoff duration. Reducing the number of retransmissions is achieved by introducing a target packet delivery ratio. Acknowledgement from a member node initializes the backoff window, which decreases the backoff duration.
