Multicast Capacity of Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

In many applications, e.g., wireless sensor networks, the authors often need estimate the achievable throughput of the deployed network. The main purpose of this paper is to study the asymptotic capacity of large scale random wireless networks when the authors choose the best protocols for all layers. As in the literature, the authors will mainly consider one type of networks, large scale random networks, where a large number of nodes are uniformly randomly placed in the deployment region.
