Abstract
An access point (AP) of a WLAN maintains a list of wireless clients in the WLAN that belong to a special class. The AP receives data to be transmitted to the wireless clients as a multicast packet, and examines the list to determine whether any wireless clients belong to the special class. If none of the wireless clients belongs to the special class, the AP transmits the data as a multicast packet. However, if one or more wireless clients belong to the special class, the AP transmits the data in the form of unicast packets to each wireless client of the special class in addition to transmitting the data as a multicast packet.
