We study the contribution of network coding (NC) in improving the multicast capacity of random wireless ad hoc networks. We consider a network with n nodes distributed uniformly in a unit square, with each node acting as a source for independent information to be sent to a multicast group consisting of m randomly chosen destinations. We show that in the presence of NC, the per-session capacity under the protocol model has a tight bound of Θ "
