TERMINAL, INTERMEDIATE NODE AND METHOD OF COMMNICATION THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: A terminal, an intermediate node and an intermediate node communication method are provided to adaptively configure a content request message and a content forwarding table by an application feature executed by a terminal, thereby increasing the transmission rate of content. CONSTITUTION: A message generating unit(710) generates a content request message which requests the content owned by the other terminals in a virtual group based on an application feature executed by at least one terminal of the virtual group. A transmitting unit(730) transmits the content request message to an intermediate node. The message generating unit generates the content request message showing that the content request message needs a single response.
