Title
Efficient Broadcasting by Selective Forwarding
Abstract
A major challenge faced in MANETs is locating devices for communication, especially in the case of high node mobility and sparse node density. We propose to develop a strategy to reduce the redundant transmission of packets in normal flooding used in broadcasting and we describe strategies for choosing only a minimal set of nodes to re-broadcast in grid networks. Our strategies reduce the redundant transmission of packets, thus packets are forwarded with a minimal number of transmissions. To determine the minimal set of nodes we propose a new algorithm called Efficient Broadcasting by Selective Forwarding (EBSF) that uses a distance-based approach in selecting the nodes among all the nodes in a grid network.
