Method for receiving multi-cast packet

1. A method for receiving multi-cast packets, used for receiving a plurality of multi-cast packets from a transmitting end, and the method comprising:

creating a plurality of buffer partitions in a memory;

writing at least one of the received multi-cast packet that belongs to a same data block into the same buffer partition in sequence;

when all the multi-cast packets that belong to the data block in any buffer partition are received, decompressing and combining all the multi-cast packets in the buffer partition into the data block that the multi-cast packets belong to, writing the combined data block into a storage device, and emptying the buffer partition; and

transmitting a retransmission request to the transmitting end for any buffer partition that is not empty and the multi-cast packets that belong to the data block are not all received.

2. The method for receiving the multi-cast packets according to claim 1 , wherein the step for writing the packets into the buffer partitions further comprises:

performing the following steps when the data block that the received multi-cast packet belongs to does not correspond to any buffer partition:

searching for one of the empty buffer partition; and

storing the received multi-cast packet into the empty buffer partition.

3. The method for receiving the multi-cast packets according to claim 2 , wherein the step for writing the packets into the buffer partitions further comprises:

performing the following steps when the data block that the received multi-cast packet belongs to does not correspond to any buffer partition, and the empty buffer partition can not be found:

using the buffer partition with a longest existing time in the memory as a write partition;

writing all the multi-cast packets of the write partition into the storage device;

emptying the write partition; and

storing the received multi-cast packets into the write partition.

4. The method for receiving the multi-cast packets according to claim 3 , wherein the step of writing all the multi-cast packets of the write partition into the storage device comprises:

performing the following steps when any multi-cast packet corresponding to the write partition exists in the storage device:

when the multi-cast packets that belong to the data block corresponding to the storage device and the write partition are all received, decompressing and combining all the multi-cast packets of the data block into the data block, and writing the combined data block into the storage device; and

writing all the multi-cast packets of the write partition into the storage device, when the multi-cast packets that belongs to the data block corresponding to the storage device and the write partition are not all received.

5. The method for receiving the multi-cast packets according to claim 4 , wherein the step of writing all the multi-cast packets of the write partition into the storage device further comprises:

writing all the multi-cast packets of the write partition into the storage device, when no multi-cast packet corresponding to the write partition exists in the storage device.

6. The method for receiving the multi-cast packets according to claim 1 , wherein the step for requesting the retransmission is executed when the first multi-cast packet of the different data block starts to be received.
