In a wireless network, due to the broadcast nature of the omnidirectional antennae, a single transmission can be received by all neighbors of the transmitting node. Therefore, the multicast routing protocols designed for the traditional wired networks are not applicable to the wireless networks. Group shared multicast tree is a more scalable approach than the source based approach in which instead of building multiple trees for each multicast group, a single shared tree is used for all multicast source nodes. In this research work, a novel methodology is proposed using the same group shared multicast tree, using a muti-hop schema to allot the channel to the participating nodes.
