Abstract :
We examine delay throughput characteristics for multicast traffic in single-hop local optical network based on broadcast-and-select system. We use an approximate analytical solution and Markov model to show the effect of tuning time on the receiver performance. We consider uniform distribution of the destination set size to show the receiver throughput against packet delay trade-off. We also show the trade-off between the maximum receiver throughput and multicast size.
