A method for video multicast delivery for 4g wireless networks includes collecting client feedback and obtaining supportable modulation and coding scheme MCS for each client over a base station of wireless network, prioritizing video packets for said clients and setting a utility for each of the video packets; performing a radio resource allocation for determining a utility optimization for transmitted frames of the video packets; and assigning an MCS to each transmitted frame of the video packets, responsive to step performing a radio resource allocation.
