Using IGMP V3 for controllable multicast over EPON

The character of 1Gbps bandwidth and tree-based structure make EPON very suitable for broadcast or multicast services such as IPTV. The document proposed a novel scheme, based on the former research for controllable multicast over EPON system, mainly considering system security and maintainability. It can both control the IPTV program source's and the receiver's validity, improving the efficiency and precision. The processing of the two configurations mode is given in detail.
