Improving multicast tree construction in static ad hoc networks
Aleksi Penttinen, Jorma T. Virtamo · 2004
We consider wireless multicast tree construction for energy efficiency. We introduce a novel algorithm, incremental shortest path tree (ISPT), to generate source-based multicast trees and analyse its performance. Additionally, the potential of further improvements in the tree construction is addressed comparing the performance of the algorithm with the results from a simulated annealing optimisation.
