In this paper we investigate the impact of a Distributed Power Control (DPC) technique over two multicast routing protocols, AMRIS and ODMRP. Such routing schemes are tested with 802.11 and 802.11b MAC protocols. The aim of this work is to investigate the influence of different MAC solutions, the effective reduction in terms of power consumption allowed by the DPC mechanism, and also to check the not excessive performance degradation for the other figures of merit, like packet delivery fraction and average delay. Comparisons between the various solutions are performed through an extensive simulation study.
