Abstract
Multicast transmission is a more efficient mechanism when compared to unicasting in supporting real time multimedia applications and hence there is an important aspect required to enhance network developments. Mobile ad hoc networks have been the subject of active research for a number of years. This study investigates the feasibility of using such networks for transmitting multimedia streams. This study studied already available protocols such as Serial MDTMR and Parallel MNTMR and proposed a new methodology using Multicast-Tree Structure Protocol for MANETS. The study implements the MCT (Multicast-Tree) structure for MANETS and evaluates the performance with both Serial MDTMR and Parallel MNTMR.
