1. A method comprising:

  • granting, by a network device, a request from a first device to join a particular multicast group;

    receiving, by the network device from the first device, a first modulation and coding rate;

    selecting, by the network device, a second modulation and coding rate for the particular multicast group based at least on the first modulation and coding rate received from the first device;

    receiving, by the network device, feedback information regarding multicast communications that (a) are associated with the particular multicast group and (b) are received by the first device;

    estimating, by the network device, a frame loss for the first device based at least on the feedback information; and

    adjusting, by the network device, the second modulation and coding rate for the particular multicast group based at least on the frame loss for the first device.
