Abstract
A method for reducing bandwidth used in multiple transmissions on a cellular network includes mapping at least one request of at least one end-device to a unicast channel between server and an intermediary in the network, creating a correlated multicast communication channel between the intermediary and the at least one end-device, and transferring data from the unicast channel to a multicast channel at the intermediary.
