Multicast is efficient to support many-to-many communication in network. Mobile ad-hoc network needs special multicast routing protocol to adapt its characteristics including local broadcast capacity, arbitrary topology change, bandwidth constraint and power limitation. A multicast routing protocol for MANET should find compromise between routing message and
data transmission efficiency to well use bandwidth and power. For this aim, this paper proposes a new multicast routing protocol called Multicast Routing protocol with Dynamic Core (MRDC) which constructs and maintains a group-shared tree using dynamically selected core only when group traffic is present. MRDC attempts to react more quickly to broken tree edge by detecting link failures during data forwarding.
