In this paper, we address the problem of multicast routing in mobile ad-hoc networks from the viewpoint of energy, efficiency. In an ad-hoc wireless network, each node runs on a local energy source which has a limited energy life span. Thus, energy conservation is a critical issue in mobile ad-hoc networks. One approach for energy conservation is to establish routes that require lowest total energy consumption. This optimization problem is referred as the minimum-energy multicast routing problem (MEMRP). In this paper, propose new efficient heuristic algorithms for the construction of energy-efficient multicast routes in mobile ad-hoc networks. These algorithms exploit the broadcast nature of the wireless channel, and address the need for energy-efficient operations. Empirical studies show that our algorithms are able to achieve better performance than algorithms that have been developed for MEMRP. © IFIP International Federation for Information Processing 2003.
