Encounter-Based Message Propagation in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks
<5> Though gossiping for message propagation has been studied in wired networks, this paper and its earlier conference version are the first to (i) apply it in mobile ad-hoc wireless networks by leveraging aspects, such as MAC level 'hello' signals, that are specific to wireless communication, (ii) derive a bound on gossip attempts within a logarithmic message complexity, and (iii) demonstrate effectiveness of gossiping on achieving high coverage not just through simulations but also through real-world experiments. It has therefore become a standard reference for motivating gossip-based information dissemination, in particular, within high-mobility VANETs.
