In this paper we present a new upper bound on the approximation ratio of the Minimum Spanning Tree heuristic for the basic problem on Ad-Hoc Networks given by the Minimum Energy Broadcast Routing (MEBR).We introduce a new analysis allowing to establish a 6.33-approximation ratio in the 2-dimensional case, thus decreasing the previously known 7.6 upper bound [4], almost closing the gap with the lower bound of 6 [12].

Abstract
In this paper we present a new upper bound on the approximation ratio of the Minimum Spanning Tree heuristic for the basic problem on Ad-Hoc Networks given by the Minimum Energy Broadcast Routing (MEBR).We introduce a new analysis allowing to establish a 6.33-approximation ratio in the 2-dimensional case, thus decreasing the previously known 7.6 upper bound [4], almost closing the gap with the lower bound of 6 [12].File in questo prodotto:
