Quality of service (QoS) of a network-wide broadcast (NWB) protocol is one of the most important performance metrics, especially in mobile ad hoc networks, where channel conditions and network topology change frequently. We propose a mesh networking inspired approach to overcome the performance degradation caused by lossy channels. We show that our adaptive approach, whereby the amount of redundancy is adjusted to the current link conditions, can achieve good performance while simultaneously reducing unnecessary energy dissipation.
