Abstract

The focus of this paper is on presenting new results on throughput capacity of wireless ad hoc networks with multicast traffic. In seminal works, Gupta and Kumar introduced a new line of research. It is about the asymptotic throughput capacity of dense wireless ad hoc networks as a function of the number of nodes in the network. In this paper, we present an upper bound on the throughput capacity of an ad hoc network with multicast traffic using a hierarchical routing strategy. We start first by generating the upper bound and the strategy gain for the 2-level hierarchical strategy. Then, we generalize the result for multi-level hierarchical routing by giving the recurrence expression of the multicast gain. Finally, we apply the basic result to a broadcast traffic in the network
