ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for message flooding is provided that takes advantage of the availability of node locations. The transmission of a flood message by a node is based on location information of neighboring nodes. In particular, each node within the communication system will delay retransmission of flood messages by a predetermined amount of time. If, during this delay, a node hears the flood message from a neighboring node (home flooding) or another node (neighborhood flooding), it then cancels transmission of the flood message.
