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) problem. 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 [3].
