“…Examples of mesh based multicast protocols can be seen in (Inn and Winston 2006;Soon, Park et al 2008). There are some hybrid protocols as well that combine the advantages of tree and mesh like structure (Biswas, Barai et al 2004). Thus, these protocols are both robust against mobility and efficient in performing the multicast operation.…”

Ad hoc network enables network creation on the fly without support of any predefined infrastructure. The spontaneous erection of networks in anytime and anywhere fashion enables development of various novel applications based on ad hoc networks. However, at the same ad hoc network presents several new challenges. Different research proposals have came forward to resolve these challenges. This chapter provides a survey of current issues, solutions and research trends in wireless ad hoc network. Even though various surveys are already available on the topic, rapid developments in recent years call for an updated account on this topic. The chapter has been organized as follows. In the first part of the chapter, various ad hoc network's issues arising at different layers of TCP/IP protocol stack are presented. An overview of research proposals to address each of these issues is also provided. The second part of the chapter investigates various emerging models of ad hoc networks, discusses their distinctive properties and highlights various research issues arising due to these properties. We specifically provide discussion on ad hoc grids, ad hoc clouds, wireless mesh networks and cognitive radio ad hoc networks. The chapter ends with presenting summary of the current research on ad hoc network, ignored research areas and directions for further research.Keywords: Ad hoc network, research issues, ad hoc grid, ad hoc cloud, wireless mesh network, cognitive radio ad hoc network INTRODUCTIONDuring last few years, extensive developments have been observed in the domain of wireless network. Different communication technologies i.e. general packet radio service (GPRS), enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE) and worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WIMAX) etc. have evolved and newer form of computing devices i.e. personal digital assistant (PDA), tablets and smart phones are appearing in the market. The wireless computing has progressed from 1G to 4G communication networks. During this progression, various modes of wireless networking have emerged. The simplest form of wireless networking is communication among two or more fixed hosts in open air. The conventional television system operates on this mode. Another approach is wireless networking with access point. There are different wireless hosts that are allowed to move while the basic infrastructure is supported by set of fixed nodes called base stations or access points. However, this approach doesn't provide the flexibility to be used in emergency situations requiring quick deployment or networking in adversarial surroundings. The evolution of technologies has lead to development a new mode of wireless networking where the nodes arrange themselves on the fly in the form of a network without any infrastructure support. Such networks are called ad hoc networks.

“…Therefore, the hybrid multicast routing protocols are able to address both efficiency and robustness issues. Multicast Core-Extraction Distributed Ad Hoc Routing (MCEDAR) [41], Ad-hoc Multicast Routing (AMRoute) [7] and Efficient Hybrid Multicast Routing (EHMRP) [12] are some well-known hybrid multicast routing protocols.…”

“…The mesh based protocols outperform tree-based ones in terms of robustness, but in an other hand, mesh based protocols suffer from a considerable amount of duplicate packets. Hybrid-based multicast routing protocols combine the advantages of both tree and mesh-based approaches [12,13]. However, these three types of multicast protocols do not fully take advantage of the spatial characteristic of wireless communications.…”

Opportunistic Routing (OR) has been proposed to improve the efficiency of unicast protocols in wireless networks. In OR, in contrast to traditional routing, instead of preselecting a single specific node to be the next-hop forwarder, an ordered set of nodes (referred to as candidates) is selected as the next-hop potential forwarders. In this paper, we investigate how OR can be used to improve multicast delivery. We propose a new multicast routing protocol based on opportunistic routing for wireless mesh networks, named Multicast Opportunistic Routing Protocol (MORP). MORP opportunistically employs a set of forwarders to send a packet toward all destinations. Each forwarder is responsible for sending the packet to a subset of destinations. Based on the candidates that successfully receive the packet in each transmission, MORP builds a tree on the fly. We compare our proposal with two well known ODMRP and ADMR multicast protocols. Our results demonstrate that MORP outperforms ODMRP and ADMR, reducing the number of data transmissions and increasing the delivery ratio.

“…In [91], Biswas et al proposed an efficient hybrid mesh-based multicast routing protocol for ad hoc networks. The key concept is to separate data forwarding path from join-query forwarding path by incorporating low overhead local clustering technique and forwarding data packets using DDM.…”

Multicast routing is an effective way to establish the group communication when the same message or the same stream of data needs to be sent to multiple receivers. Multicast routing has attracted a lot of attention in group oriented computing due to supporting data transmission from a single source node to multiple destinations concurrently. The advantage of multicast routing lies in its capability of reducing the communication cost and saving the network resources by sending only one copy of the message over the shared link leading to different destinations. Generally speaking, this survey classifies the multicast routing protocols into four categories based on the underlying routing structure: tree-based, mesh-based, hybrid and stateless multicast routing protocols. This survey summarizes the well-known most recent protocols of each category and compares their objectives, performances, advantages and disadvantages. This survey study helps us to choose the best multicasting protocol for each network application with respect to the requirements of application.
