Abstract
Data files, video and audio data, telephone calls, and other multimedia information is multicast through a hybrid network which includes orbiting satellites and the Internet. The multimedia information is multicast to a receiving facility via an orbiting satellite or the Internet. If the status of the transmission indicates that the transmission was unsuccessful, the receiving computer will transmit a failure status to the source, and the source will transmit the multimedia information to the receiving computer, thus providing reliable data delivery. The multicast data is received by a receiving facility and the data is transmitted via industry standard non-proprietary mechanisms utilizing Internet Protocol to each of the destination computers that are members of the multicast group.
