An important objective of tactical ad hoc networks is to deliver threat information
from sensors to shooters efficiently and quickly. The information sent
to a particular shooter should contain warnings about threats that are within
some distance and/or within some time of the shooter's current location. In this
thesis we develop a novel multicast model that distributes this form of threat
information in a message efficient manner. In addition, information about allied
force can also be distributed in a similar way. We present results from extensive
simulations that demonstrate the efficiency of our protocol and discuss the
scalability of this model to larger networks. / Graduation date: 2001
