Abstract:
    An improved method is provided for disseminating information in an ad hoc wireless network. The method includes: receiving an incoming message at a recipient node of the network; scheduling a retransmission of the message, where the schedule time for the retransmission is proportional to a signal strength at which the message was received by the recipient node; and canceling the retransmission of the message when the same message is received from a different node in the network prior to the schedule time for the retransmission. The effect is reduced network traffic on the network with minimized latency.
