Abstract :
This paper explores extensions to parity-based retransmission schemes applied to protocols for reliable multicast delivery. It considers a hybrid protocol scheme to potentially reduce the number of required data repair cycles through channel loss prediction. It is conjectured that such a scheme has potential benefit for particular network architectures, such as direct broadcast satellite, in improving protocol throughput delay and efficiency
