Abstract :
We provide the initial framework for the study of center-oriented broadcast routing problems using omnidirectional antennas. From the intuition that the best place to take advantage of the wireless broadcast advantage is at the center of a network deploy region, we concretize this idea into a currently best performing power-efficient broadcast routing algorithm for wireless ad hoc networks. We support this statement with extensive simulation studies.
