Abstract: Mobile opportunistic networks,which disseminate messages through the contact of mobile nodes,have become pervasive in many scenarios,e.g.,mobile social networks,VANET,mobile ad hoc networks,etc.These networks have attracted considerable attention in both the academic and industry community.In such networks,group communication of mobile opportunistic networks has been widely adopted in disaster rescue,community information dissemination,intelligent transportation,etc.,which makes multicast routing as a critical building block in the design of mobile opportunistic networks.This paper presented a survey on the state-of-the-art multicast strategies in mobile opportunistic networks.The multicast routing strategies were classified into two categories:traditional multicast routing and intelligent multicast routing.The algorithms in each category were discussed,with an emphasis on intelligent multicast routing.Different multicast routing strategies were compared and analyzed by using popular performance metrics.The conclusion is drawn that intelligent multicast routing strategies demonstrate desirable comprehensive performance in terms of data delivery ratio,transmission overhead,average delay,storage overhead and scalability,due to the consideration of the inherent characteristics of mobile opportunistic networks,e.g.,contact probability,stable social characteristics,li-mited node cache,exhausted energy consumption,selfish behaviors,etc.At last,corresponding research directions were discussed by concerning the cache management supporting big data,group communication security strategies,multicast in VANET and dynamic-sensing based multicast in mobile opportunistic networks.

Key words: Intelligent multicast routing, Mobile opportunistic networks, Multicast routing, Traditional multicast routing
