Summary :

Layered multicast approach enables IP multicast to adapt to heterogeneous networks. In layered multicast, each layer of a session is sent to separate multicast groups. These layers will be transmitted on the same route, or on different routes. However, traditional congestion control schemes of layered multicast do not consider the case when layers of a session are transmitted on different routes. In this paper, at first we show that in sparse-mode routing protocols like PIM-SM and CBT, layers of a session can be mapped to different Rendezvous Points or cores due to the bootstrap mechanism. It means that layers of a session can be transmitted on different routes. We then show that traditional congestion control schemes of layered multicast do not work properly in sparse-mode routing regions. At last we introduce Rendezvous Point based Layered Multicast (RPLM), a novel congestion control scheme suitable for sparse-mode routing regions, and show that RPLM works efficiently in regions using sparse mode routing protocols. RPLM uses per-RP packet loss rate instead of the overall one to detect congestion on each route, and can react to congestion quickly by dropping the highest layer on the congested route. In addition, RPLM simultaneously drops all the layers those are useless in quality's improvement to prevent bandwidth waste.
