Abstract :
In this paper an enhanced reliability protocol added to the ODMRP multicast ad hoc protocol is described. This protocol increases the overall data packet delivery ratio by adding packet storage and retransmission operations coordinated by the multicast source. Storage responsibilities are assigned based on localized ´neighborhoods´ of nodes with minimal spanning hopcount, within the group. Simulation results are presented that reflect the protocol overhead of both ODMRP and the reliability component, broken down by operational phase.
