Abstract
We propose a cross-layer multicast mechanism in wireless ad hoc network which incorporates network coding scheme into MAC layer and manipulates multicast operations in a MPLS fashion at network layer. Through a brief analysis of the multicast performance, we demonstrate that the proposed mechanism has the potential to achieve the system throughput upper-bound defined by the Max-Flow Min-Cut theorem.
