ISO/IEC 24793规定了移动多播通信（MMC），可用于支持基于IP的无线移动网络以及有线固定网络中的各种多媒体多播服务。MMC面向移动通信网络上的实时一对多组播服务和应用。这意味着MMC专注于多播服务，而不是广播服务，并且在多播会话中只能允许经过身份验证的用户。MMC还考虑了一对多组播会话，其中一个组播发送方在会话中被允许，而不是多个- 许多多播服务。此外，MMC的目标是实时多播会话，而不是可靠的多播会话；多播数据的及时传输被认为是一个关键因素。 ISO/IEC 24793-1:2010规定了MMC框架，作为描述MMC框架和功能架构的MMC标准的一部分。基于这个框架，MMC项目的两个部分将开发MMC的两个协议:本地IP多播网络上的协议和覆盖多播网络上的协议。

ISO/IEC 24793 specifies mobile multicast communications (MMC), which can be used to support a variety of multimedia multicasting services in IP-based wireless mobile networks as well as wired fixed networks. MMC targets real-time, one-to-many multicast services and applications over mobile communications networks. This implies that MMC focuses on multicast services rather than broadcast services, and that only authenticated users could be allowed in the multicast session. MMC also considers the one-to-many multicast session wherein a single multicast sender is allowed in the session rather than many-to-many multicast services. In addition, MMC is targeted in the real-time multicast session rather than the reliable multicast session; the timely delivery of multicast data is considered a key factor. ISO/IEC 24793-1:2010 specifies the MMC framework as part of the MMC standard describing the framework and functional architecture of MMC. Based on this framework, the two protocols for MMC will be developed in two parts of the MMC project: protocol over native IP multicast networks and protocol over overlay multicast networks.
