Abstract-- Wireless multicast/broadcast sessions, unlike wired
networks, inherently reaches several nodes with a single transmis-
sion. For omnidirectional wireless broadcast to a node, all nodes
closer will also be reached. An algorithm for constructing the
minimum power tree in wireless networks was first proposed by
Wieselthier Ø Ð. The ÖÓ ×Ø Ò Ö Ñ ÒØ Ð ÔÓÛ Ö (BIP) al-
gorithm suggested by them is a "node-based" minimum-cost tree
algorithm for wireless networks. We propose an alternate search
based paradigm wherein minimum-cost trees in wireless networks
