The Modified DAP-NAD-CJ Algorithm for Multicast Applications

We make some modifications in this paper to the DAP-NAD-CJ (deterministic adaptable priority net access delay with cycle jump) algorithm for multicast applications. The new algorithm assigns wireless channel access slot unevenly between stations in the network so that the multicast source can access channel as fast as possible. We then proved by calculations and simulations that the modified algorithm outperforms DAP-NAD-CJ greatly in both single priority and multi-priority networks.
