Abstract :
Satellite-terrestrial networks, in which many nodes are interconnected by both satellite and terrestrial networks, can efficiently support multicast service. We have developed a dynamic routing algorithm for satellite-terrestrial network that selects the route to use according to the multicast group size when a node is added to the group.
