The Effect of Introducing Redundancy in a Probabilistic Forwarding Protocol
This paper is concerned with the problem of broadcasting information from a source node to every node in an ad-hoc network. Flooding, as a broadcast mechanism, involves each node forwarding any packet it receives to all its neighbours. This results in excessive transmissions and thus a high energy expenditure overall. …
