EN Wireless ad-hoc networks are playing an important role in extending the implementation of traditional wireless infrastructure (cellular networks, wireless LAN, etc). Routing design in ad-hoc networks is a challenge because of limited node resources. Thus efficient data transmission techniques like multicasting are under scrutiny. The article analyzes and explores the performance of multicast heuristic algorithms without constraints and quality of multicast trees in ad-hoc networks and proves the thesis that well-known multicast heuristic algorithms designed for packet networks have a good performance in ad-hoc networks with grid structure.
