A power-saving multicast routing scheme in 2-tier hierarchical mobile ad-hoc networks
Junghee Ryu, Sanghwa Song, Dong‐Ho Cho · 2002
Two distributed heuristic clustering schemes for multicasting are proposed to minimize the transmission power in 2-tiered mobile ad-hoc networks. The proposed schemes are implementable, and the average consumed power per a master node in cases of using the proposed schemes are only slightly higher than the optimal results.
