What is MHMR: mobility‐based hybrid multicast routing protocol in mobile ad hoc wireless networks about?

## Abstract The field of mobile ad hoc networking has enjoyed dramatic increase in popularity over the last few years. However, owing to the fact that such networks have dynamic, sometimes rapidly changing, random, multihop topologies, the development of efficient and applicable multicast routing protocols presents many issues and challenges. In this paper we propose a Mobility‐based Hybrid Multicast Routing (MHMR) protocol suitable for mobile ad hoc networks. The main features that our proposed protocol introduces are the following: (i) mobility‐based clustering and group‐based hierarchical structure, in order to effectively support stability and scalability; (ii) group‐based (limited) mesh structure and forwarding tree concepts, in order to support the robustness of the mesh topologies, which provides ‘limited’ redundancy and the efficiency of tree forwarding simultaneously; and (iii) combination of proactive and reactive concepts that provide low route acquisition delay and low overhead. The use of dynamic mobility‐based clustering as the underlying structure is motivated by the observation that in mobile ad hoc networks communications are often among teams that tend to coordina
